Where does the suggestion the Inspirations were the Wand group come from? Is it just an assumption? Could it be they were the group who recorded Got To Find New Love instead!
Tom Dacey posted the prices on a topic on Facebook, sure he won';t mind me posting them here. Anglo American are very approachable suggest you try asking them before spouting off on here.

Last nights on Sound Of Soul ™ Dean Anderson and Alan Kitchener were joined by non other than Tim Ashibende. A great show with some great chat and useless info as Tim calls it.
Last weeks show, a good un at that, Jordan Wilson and Charlotte Hindley, two youngsters making waves on the scene across Europe. Their energy and enthusiasm is infectious, taste in music ain't bad either.
They actually didn’t ship them anywhere and often left all copies in storage, they didn’t want to sell them. That was the scam. Often it was a sub label set up by its parent company, they also did their own distribution (allegedly) and deliberately run at a loss to avoid paying taxes on the money it actually did make....or something like that. they only ended up abroad when record hounds would find the stock years later.
I’ve been told Keith was part of the lecture team at Salford university when they did a lecture about the scene. Ady Croasdell spoke too. I have all the notes and recordings somewhere.
it will have to be good to come close to what is already on offer but if its aim is academic then it won’t worry too many. Either way I look forward to its publication.
No one knows everything, we are all learning every day or should be if yer doung it right. With the amount of records there is, even the most knowledgable can be forgiven for either not knowing something or forgetting what something is. As I get older I’m forgetting records I haven’t heard for sometime so I’m sure it is the same for others.
Thanks Rick. Its actually the first I’ve heard of the book and would have been happy to help.
i’ve begun researching the 80s onwards for a book but I have little free time given the hours I work (60-70 and away all week) but I am working in it.
