Chalky

The one in Kick Ass is our Morris' son as far as I am aware. One thing for sure he ain't the singer of Too Darn Soulful.

Pretty sure I have a Spencer Wiggins. Won't be home until the weekend though.

We all want to go out and here the one off the rarities and those we cant't hear at home, that's what it was all about at one time. But the days of going out and hearing something you can't hear via other mediums is fast becoming a thing of the past. At any given night there are very few DJ's who play something you can't hear via CDs or the internet. I don't think anyone would say anything different. But the point I'm making and I guess Kev is that there is room for cheap stuff as well and I would sooner hear those than rarities that are simply dross or bore me to death. Too much snobbery when it comes to records and prices, too many are simply a case of emperors new clothes. Too many rarities have been hammered to death simply because they are rare whilst many good cheaper end stuff is ignored. Karl proved you can play a set that is built of cheaper end stuff mixed in with rarer stuff if you put the time and effort in. But i can't think of too many willing to do that. Too many build there sets doing the same as others.

Neither do it for me either Phil to be honest.

Phil, I have listened to, collected and even danced to the cheapest and the dearest, it is also how i collected and to a lesser extent collect, genuiene rarities to so called cheap as chips. Trophy records are great, i love them don't get me wrong, but there are just as many expensive so called tropy records that dont come close to many a good cheapie in terms of quality, many are just plain crap and only played because they are expensive and rare. Many trophy sets bore me silly as i've heard them a thousand times before, familiarity breads contempt has never been truer. I didn't say there are thousands of cheap records just waiting to be played out but to say there are none as good as the so called trophy 500 or whatever you want to call it is plain ridiculous. I bet for every expensive record one just as good can be bought cheap. There is too much snobbery on this scene when it comes to records, been said before by a few on this topic alone that price is often put before quality and its never been truer than on today's scene. Most if they went to John Manships, Andy Dyson's, Tim Brown's or any dealer with a large stock of records wouldn't know half of them. There's room for cheap and expensive if only DJ's used some imagination like they used to a d stopped playing the same as everyone else. Most daren't use their imagination or show some balls cause they are afraid of not getting a set again. I don't mind anyone playing a set of expensive records, I love them but do they have to be the same set as everyone else, many can't even put a set together. Some of the worst sets I've heard are so called trophy sets where everyone was a 4 figure price but they just didn't flow when put together in a set. Just about all the expensive records have been discovered and in many cases hammered to death, time to look elsewhere IMO. The likes of Andy dyson and Butch, the top two IMO when it comes to obscurities and rarities aren't afraid to play a cheapie. But then mere mortals hear thatbit is a cheapie and they then have to have the re ord thereby inflating the price. Why can't they do like Andy and Butch and look for those odd cheapies to throw in? To say that only trophy records are good and they are the only ones that should be palyed is plain ridiculous and out of touch.

Magic record and cheaper still on Bunky although this is better take if remember rightly. Another of theirs is "How could it be", one of the best tenners you could spend. In fact buy the LP"Get on up and get away". Cheap and a fantastic LP.

The sooner the arse drops out of the scene and those who collect for some sort of status symbol and to DJ at their own venue and their mates venue bugger off, and it all goes back underground and it is about the music and the quality, not the price the better. Too much collecting emphasis is put on what the current biggie is and then they all must have a copy. Many biggies start out as cheapies, use some imagination and dig out tomorrows biggie now, not when it becomes an expensive cheapie.

I know Diane, just trying to remember her surname??

It's on Veetone Records https://www.veetonerecords.com Link to the LP on their site.... https://www.veetonerecords.com/vinyl.html There is a review here..... https://www.veetonerecords.com/assets/Echoes_Motown_RB_Review_By_Mike_Atherton_14.10.13.pdf

I was in touch with the last surviving member of the Servicemen.... Here is the group and who they are...

I love both sides.

Last one of Bunny. "Girl Don't Make Me Wait"

Think the last one I saw few months ago was a 1000 quid. Connie the in demand side these days.

There records a plenty to be had but it is like anything you have to put the time and effort in, they won't come to you.

There was a great topic on here btw some time ago cheap as chips with some great recommendations.

All I can say is you aren't looking hard enough. Loads of quality in the 10/20 quid range. You won't find them if you don't look, you need to get looking through boxes and listen, or visit websites that dealers have and listen to clips. If you go to nighters/soul nights those that are selling often have offers of 3 for 20 etc.

Can't believe only 50 odd views? For those that do enjoy seeing those that made the music here's more Bunny Sigler with his first song of the night "Let The Good Time Roll".

Yep can't disagree with any of what Jock says.

Load of rubbish about the not very good is what i think. There are some fabulous cheapies out there. The reason they are cheap is because there are quantity of the titles in the hands of dealers and in circulation.

This made me smile on his listing.... ♚ << look for the MAINLY45s unique sign of quality.

How did we get on to a discussion about money laundering or shouldn't I have asked?

That doesn't determine the records worth though does it? If there is demand behind the record or it is a record that holds its price then you'd be a fool to sell it to a dealer. A dealer will pay quite a bit less than its worth to cover his over heads, the fact he may not sell it and he will want a profit on the record, he won't get that paying the records worth. The dealer will resell the record at probably the price you paid for it in the first place, maybe more if demand has risen. The only way jot will be listed for less is if quantity has been found then it will be kept quiet.

Bargain, been fetching twice that recently.

I posted it in comedy sale this morning. Dubious the wording to say the least (aka Servicemen ).

If you are just going to play records why bother with a dj? Might as well stick a cd on.
