I’d forgotten all about this, I commented at the time in Kev Spittle’s group on FB....I also saved the photo Laurence posted

Whilst predictable to us, to a mainstream radio 2 audience it probably wasn’t.

Dean Anderson is joined for a second time Lynne & Dave Girdwood.

As it seems to be the time to celebrate 60 years of Motown I thought I'd give this a bump once more.

If you fancy another listen here his my contribution to the celebrations, 60 (previously) unreleased gems.

Soul Harmony Singles has Derrick down as the lead as well, nothing else.

The prices above would suggest an increase in demand with the price rising from around £50 up to £99 with three recent sales over £80. The higher price would also reflect the condition as well don't you think?

That's the selling price, postage doesn't come into it, that is what the record actually sold for. country of origin. It is probably, after an individual record list and a dealers website the most helpful and accurate price indicator. Popsike would be bottom of the pile. Postage is a necessary evil regardless of its point of sale. Popsike, soul source, facebook, the sales are all world wide, just because the postage may be higher from one country doesn't make the record worth any less. Given that the record was a UK release I would hazard a guess most of these are UK sales, the £99 even says the shop is in Essex.

It has sold for up to £100 in recent months on discogs (NM), the last sale was just under £45 (Vg+). 2019-05-30Near Mint (NM or M-)Very Good Plus (VG+)£44.64€49.00 Comments: Sleeve has faint sticker residue and a dent on one corner otherwise mint. 2019-05-24Near Mint (NM or M-)Near Mint (NM or M-)£80.00£80.00 Comments: Fantastic Copy - You Can Pick Up From Our Shop In Upminister Essex 2019-05-01Near Mint (NM or M-)Near Mint (NM or M-)£99.99£99.99 Comments: Excellent Condition - Has good sheen with a couple of lite marks (About 7 or 8 out of 10) A nice original UK issue from 1994 with clean labels.

Yeah but I thought it was a soul supply thing?

There was another ep with Nomads, Cecil Washington etc if memory serves

Both these are first issues, simply a second run with a different sleeve for the reasons mentioned I believe. There is another release tha has the hotel sheet with it which has. “MD 116-A RE-2 S-5337” matrix rather than “MD 116-A RE-1 S-5337” which with suggest it being later although not by much as all 1977. All the matrix details are detailed on discogs for the various variations.

Dean Anderson and Gez are once again joined by the nutty but nice Twisted Sisters Debbie Carty & Cazzy Burgess and Scott Molyneux for three hours of off the wall hard hitting soul music.

South End WMC was 1986 just after Stafford closed and prior to the likes of Blackburn. Any chance of high resolution scans for my archives please?

There is already greedy b*stards on discogs charging £30 for a copy and it is still available for £11. As Steve said with this and other releases people just seem to care about there limited single not being as limited as they thought and their “investment” being devalued. Time the companies stopped saying how many they press and just list for sale and mark sold out when gone. Like I said it should be about the music and not some out for an investment. How many have to be pressed for it to not be a limited press? this scene might be about exclusiveness and elusive records but that is for 30, 40 and 50 year old records not new releases. A release should match the market not the few, I’m sure that is what many of the elusive discs we chase were once marketed for.

Who cares if it’s been repressed, it’s £11 From which the family benefits or something to bothered about is an original brand-new release or a repress of a brand-new release. Some of you need to give me a heads wobble it’s supposed about the music.

Looks like someone made an offer as it is marked sold

Just do away with this culture of limited editions. This release is cheapnas are others but many charging up to £50 and I know plenty who have stopped bothering with many new releases. All the talk on this topic is about how many and not about the music which is sad. Its been the same about many other releases I read about on here, it is all you seem to talk about, how many, made sure I got mine etc etc.

Copies still for sale on Bandcamp

ARP is The American Record Pressing Co.
