hi all, maybe some kind person will "get this up" for me, you will see what i mean one for the ladies or men liking men check the artist out on label scan currently on ebay.com item number 200213332074 made me laugh russ

can remember hearing tommy hunt n other spark label soul releases, which seemed to be in abundance as conselation prizes. russ

Dj's that support venues as a punter, not ones who only go out if they are djing!

mark spot on, quality over quanity. and with the pound being so strong over the dollar lately those non emotional attachments that i have sold have been worth double and have enabled to put some quality 45s into the collection. regards russ

yes have sold a few over the years, but im not a hoarder of 45s, dont see the point of hundreds, thousands of 45s sitting doing nothing, rather have a box or two of 700ish 45s that i am happy with, and that is starting to show as now im finding it hard to part with any 45 from my collection. and even with this ammount of 45s i do forget what i have too. regards russ

yes mark as some appeal ,as do alot of them other not played oldies ie eddie garrigan, burning bush, jd martin, bobby diamond regards russ

hi all, ok so what happens when that 45 as seen its day, hammered to death by every dj ,been booted, vinyl carvered etc just got me thinking over the years i have cashed in on a 45s success, but playing a few sounds the other night perched near the rear of the box was my copy of pat & the blenders which hasnt seen the light of day for ages. have over the last year pondered whether to sell or trade it on, still on numerous wants list, but eventhough i dont really play it, do you know what, i cant bear to part with it "just because" it got a right hammering it is still imo a fantastic 45. so anymore examples of played out hammered 45s you couldnt bear to part with eventhough you dont play them? or do you just sell them? russ

no its on another tangerine release regards russ

tune indeed have all the blue label copies which i have, have the same cut to the label or are the green ones the same? must admit tend to see more blue issues than green ones. russ

any takers for this superb 45? russ

a couple of detroit demos

a few classics

hi all, up for grabs; the girls - the hurts still here - memphis vg+ £35 excellent xover double sider from 1970 graded at vg+ due to a few minor paper scuffs still a high level of gloss, plays excellent nice n loud. if interested pm or email russel.holley@btinternet.com cash or cheque £1.50p&p thanks for looking russ

only ever seen one demo thats the first time i heard this 45, would say £30ish for a ex copy. for what i can remember isnt it the hextagonal design? regards russ

yes am amazed at this one! paid £200 a few years ago for a demo, but must say the one sold does look in nice nick ,plus you get the awesome flip slide "you let him get away" £200 per side still sounds exspensive though imo russ

shame dave, got my mintish issue with its original sleeve a few years ago after my mate played it to me just loved it! all for the cost of £6 ebay! happy hunting russ

yes was ready to bid on it, then it tripled never heard or seen it before but what a great tune indeed regards russ anyone have a sound clip of this?

superb underplayed 45 which isnt that easy to find. happy hunting russ

maybe compiling the next top 500 lol. a wants list n a half. happy hunting russ

matadors 1962, plus im with you chalky regards margie hendrix price. regards russ

so why dont you do DKOF matt if soul is a obsession to you?, if you keep it openminded you might enjoy it and gain abit more knowledge regards whats out there russ

But I've always had the feeling that this bragging doesn't happen too often on this forum. It's more about sharing knowledge and I hope it stay that way! (although I have to admit that the "got this for £30 back in the 80's"-comments tend to pop up quite often)
