Think the little richard had the odd play now and then

only got a shitty RA to hand, got it on cd, but on this file it sounds like near the end, "sweat was popping (or dripping) off my face and shit was all over the place" must get my lug 'oles cleaned

not sure about the stand in line but certainly sounds like fish and chips after

Eddie & Ernie - Lost Friends James Carr - singles collection Goldwax story all on Kent

Calvin Grayson - Loves Just begun two bits sound like "feelin shitty your woman quit you" and bit later when "times get hard" then backing comes in "piss off you"

thought I had this somewhere on cd/tape...can't seem to find, soundfile anyone, both sides if poss

Just added that cd to my wants Colin, surprised I've not got that one already

here you go, superb track

which is less than two weeks away

aye can remember you playing it, tis good

Dunoo who the musicians were but Goldwax used most of the studios in Memphis according to sleeve notes on the Goldwax story, Hi, Sam Philips, American and Lyn-Lou, also Fame. Presume they were any Memphis musician available to the particular studio at the time. Dark End Of the Street one of my fave soul singles and one of the greatest ever IMO, up there with Sam Cook's A Change Is Gonna Come.

manship has one for £75

I'll rephrase that to agree with what Richie says, trickle them out rather than sit on it. Not going to go up in value so why sit on 'em

or so he says........with the one on e-bay I've seen 5 copies... it's the sort of record gonna have to cash in on while it's still hot so to speak. If you ask me it will only go down in value if it turns up cause it's basically a pretty poor record and does get very boring after a while. The other side is f*cking awful and that is the top side

Humpty Dumpty, makes no reference to him nor any nursery rhyme. Will have a good listen after me tea but basically says summat along the lines of "game I'd be losing" .....summat I can't make out while eating me tea but mentions dump .not humpty dumpty though then says "Heading for a fall". As for like Lewis Clark sounds sod all like it IMHO...ones half decent record for a start others basically shite but sounds good played loud and is very catchy And who ever compared it to the Vondells wants to get their ears cleaned out I got the second copy, Brian Poust advertised the copy on here and the one Manship auctioned wasn't a new copy. There's one on e-bay now.

here's the soundfile....

Magictones - A Lovers Plea (sounds far better than the original title) Thats a bar of galaxy and a mars bar I reckon you owe me now

great story

Your right in saying it does have something but like I said I got a bit over exposed to it at one point. At one stage was hearing most Fridays and Saturdays. Suppose the less you hear it the better it is The flip is the better of the two sides for me

Like you said mate, think we are on the same wavelength. Didn't the DJ's who have the Eric Lomax from JA get them on the understanding that they played them covered up I heard the reason Sam didn't get one initially was that he wouldn't play a record covered up?

Thought you were talking cover ups in general Quite a number of exclusive records in the posession of DJ's. I'm not only talking spending big bucks! Some DJ's put the effort and hours into finding new records for the scene. Why should a DJ or collector bother just for someone else to make a name for himself off the back of his/her efforts :angry: It would only happen so many times before you said f*ck it why bother. It also goes on on e-bay, others watching certain collectors and what they bid for cause they don't have the knowledge and just feed off others knowledge! No better than parasites IMO

Same reason as always, hide the identity and therefore give the dj some form of exclusivity. If I'd payed 3k for a record I'd want to get as much use out of it as possible before every tom dick and harry dj gets a copy, especially as it's easier than it has ever been to find records without getting off your arse.

Gotta agree to a certain point Gareth. Heard this at one point every week and got bored with it. Flip much better. Even if it had been uncovered you've still got to find copies. Lots know it's true title/artist but only seen the couple on the bay in recent times. Wonder if John Anderson got anymore
