So you value the Shufflers at around £200? given that Donald Jenkins is worth £50 to most apart from the JM guide? agree with you though about two blinding records

so..does this demo have the stamps under the label?

Seen the Donald Jenkins for as low as £40 but often around the £60 or so mark. Always thought Shufflers was an £80/£100 record but seems to have doubled in value Didn't think either were particularly rare, Donald Jenkins more so as up for sale pretty regularly.

Plenty of records that have sold for around £2k on auction that are no where near as rare or good as the Primers.

what Andy Rix had to say about the disc/record.....

Butch covered it as the Sherry's. Andy Rix/Rob Thomas later covered it as Cindy Scott when the got a second acetate. Some info somewhere from Andy, will post it up shortly.

good question your guess as good as anyones Richie, £3k, £4k, £5k? Depends how bad someone wanted this rarity.

pleasure Shep. T'other one is Tommy Ridgely - My Love Gets Stronger.

if it sounded exactly like Ordinary Girl it's probably because it was. The flip is nothing like the top side and although good is probably not good enough to play out, it's certainly not as good as the top side, not in the same league IMHO.

there's more than one Kenny....

I think I've got one of these lp's in the cupboard at home

playing devils advocate......there's countless established northern tracks that are messy and all over the place, strange and disjointed.....often the appeal is they aren't perfect. I wouldn't say the Mustangs is all over the place, it sounds pretty consistent to me.

I personally think there are enough uptempo and mid to uptempo dancers to sustain a nighter (and to vary a set) without resorting to mid tempo plodders and 70's crossover no one can dance to, which as good as they may be, serve no purpose other than to satisfy the anoraks and chin strokers who have non intention of dancing and to bring everyone else down!! What I'm basically saying is the mid tempo and lounge music served up by some dj's and some venues have the same effect on the dancefloor as the so called shite uptempo/dasncers as some of you call it. All-nighters, well soul nights of any kind, are about the dancefloor and the dancers at the end of the day. The record that started this topic might be totally different at minue 2 or even 4. And to say it ain't northern well many records I hear when out I wouldn't call northern but it's all down to individual taste. Also the above record apparently filled the floor at the last Lifeline so I'm told, wasn't there to witness as I'd been busy falling of trailers at work The dancefloor rules

one went the night before for $655

well I'm all for hearing uptempo records at all-nighters, not the plodders and crossover no one dances to you hear at some venues come 4am and therefore sending everyone either to sleep bored or home!!! There's plenty of uptempo and dancers without having to resort to lounge music. Known about this record and heard it, and the other side some time ago.

is this original acetate like some of the other previous "original" acetates

£40 innit?

Butch has been spinning this for years, Carl Fortnum also. Wasn't until Andy Dyson turned a copy up that it gained much wider recognition. Quite a few have been in contact with guy who did backing/produced etc, one or two long ago Probably half a dozen known copies now. The record is simply awesome, in my top two all time!!!!

came out twice Kev, one with a fab flip. Played both sides out in years gone by Don't have a copy anymore so can't go and listen to answer your question really.

Great service Mr Flynster arrived as I was leaving the house earlier and will be listening when I fire up the BBQ a little later Cheers pal!!

was massive in the mid 80's for Keb then later Rob Marriott when it was only known via a studio acetate with no artist credits (played as the Fabulous Impacts). Wasn't till some years later that an actual issue surfaced. Great taste as usual Flanny

t'other side (King For A Day) just as good. Label is J&W.

when he first saw a copy of Cheating Kind he wasn't even aware it had been released let alone it's rarity. He was amazed when he found out how much it cost!

Hi Sid hope you are well. realistic value???? as said no real demand from the scene just collectors, both tracks are available on other labels as well. The previous copy I saw for sale again on ebay was $101 I think. Here's a scan of the demo, came from Ady Potts.... anyone got a scan of the issue?
