Are you putting these on DVD Wiggy? Wouldn't mind copies?

I'm trying to remember his name..... Some great coffee kicking about in them days P.S. just seen John's post!

It's one of the rarest records out there. This has to be 3k plus?

For once we agree on something Phil

Yes it isn't a bad read, not very long but some good stories. I enjoyed it.

Yep done many a deal beofre a night out and collected and paid for record on arrival.....it is still business on the niggt how ever you look at it. As I said all dealers seem to struggle at venues, I do better on line when I do a list than at a venue, way the world is heading I'm afraid, soon be no high street. As for the best I couldn't say as I don't do nighters on a weekly basis and stopped doing nighters that offer the same old (I don't just mean oldies either) altogether.

I would also say most wheeling and dealing is done in the first few hours and that record bars then become a social gathering. If you are a full time dealer then you are more than likely to do most of you business via a site, here or the many groups on FB, there is less and less emphasis on selling at a venue now. Don't know about others though I still like to see what I am buying.

You know everything that happens up there do you? no you don't. John or Danny might tell you they sold this and that or bugger all but you can't speak for all the other dealers and besides you rarely venture up there.

Most of the tables on the balcony are usually taken up, it is usually busy up there. I don't do a stock check to see what sellers shift nor is it the venues fault that some dealers have stock buyers do not wish to buy. i think the night Chris went, Dave Raistrick, Des Parker, Roger Banks were just three regular dealers missing that night. Ady Pierce was at the last one and he said he did ok? The balcony at Lifeline is usually busy but what sales actually take place you would have to ask the dealers, we simply provide somewhere for them trade. But it is like a lot of venues these days, buyers are doing most of their buying online.

Does $14 cover a US dealer insurance wise for a $200 record?

Lifeline has a great record bar on the balcony.

Bill "Bunky" Sheppard.

70 years after release I think, might be 50 here. Thats why the Beatles are releasing a batch of unreleased material otherwise anyone could have used it for free. It will now be protected for decades.

I only really use it for videos of acts I taken and looking to move them to vimeo or some other host?

God forbid if ever you tube crashed, people would have to start going out again

Thats ok, sorted since then.

There is one original acetate, a "Beltone" acetate found in Rose's basement by Steve Green and Rob Thomas.

Dave, what was the date on the email?

yeah it does, when did you get it mate? what jus the date on it and was it from his aol address? He's changed his passwords etc so should be ok now.

The video is or rather was in this topic, it's been removed from youtube.

Yep the LP and the issue if that is the source sound the same. The German has the live vocals and a bit more going on in the mix by the sounds of it? I tend to stick to US issues etc so that would do for me too and is just as good as you say.

These two sound different to my ears... and this one says it's from the LP? Granted their isn't a lot in them, one sounds like it is live.

I'd have to compare them again pal.

The US 7 is different from the LP, the LP is the one I think? The German one is what they all go for isn't it?

The Chambers Brothers is off the LP or the German 7 inch, that is the version you want. Think the German is multicoloured vinyl. Mighty Joe Young, couldn't tell you who played it first. As Pete says it was around for years and a cheapie, still is, another tape swapper sound.
