    Wanted

    LOOKING FOR A MINTER. PM ME WITH PRICE. Personal Note: See the trouble you've caused me Tony?
  2. Shit, you're right, I have the Ep but without the sleeve. I just saw it there and assumed it was a UK 45. Sorry 'bout that. So, do you want to sell the sleeve only?
  3. What a beauty. I'd have taken it Pete but I've got the UK 45. I'm certain it'll go to a good home. Again, what a beauty!!!
  4. Heard it was a good night.
  5. Sorry I couldn't make it Nige. :-(
  6. And didn't they do a 'second' Backtrack 6 Lp?
  7. God, you can't please some people, eh Nige?
  8. But I also brought back over 200 more records. And the experience was well worth the 'bus fare'. On top of that, I sold two records from those 200+, which covered the cost of my 'bus fare'. But nice try Ken.
  9. Well, I paid just $1 for mine out of a little shop down the road from the Lincoln Memorial in Washington.
  10. How much is this worth these days?
  11. Flanny, If all the advice you're getting fails to fix the problem, let me know. I have a guy who fixes Burgers. He's fixed 5 so far and they're all still working fine. He even fixed one I gave to him to canabalise for spare parts for a couple of others that needed attention. He fixes electrical devices of all kinds for a living, it's not just a sideline.
  12. Might have something to do with where you live. Some dealers won't ship to certain countries or even certain continents.
  13. Only a couple?
  14. Didn't you have that one already? Or was that You Shocked Me?
  15. Well Stevie, I was one of those exceptions to the rule then. I, for one, thought it was great, especially the record bar(s). And as for the music? Well, all eras have / had good and bad records so, like somebody else said earlier, those bad records served a purpose at the time, defining the way forward by excluding them. ( I like that ). Denbo.
  16. Hi Ste, Nah, believe me, there were plenty of people that attanded the Wheel, well Whitworth Street at least, that also attended the Casino, I was certainly one of them at 22 years of age, and nobody called me "grandad" And as you postulate, a lot of us drifted there as a natural progression and as other clubs we attended faded away, eg Blackpool Mecca, Golden Torch, Up The Junction, Catacombes, Leeds, etc. Also, what filled the dancefloor then, didn't always translate to what was being collected, well not by me anyhow. On the contrary, it was during the early Casino days that I picked up a lot of what got played at the Wheel on UK labels missing from my collection, and all at rock bottom prices. In fact, I used to have people bring me records I was after from the earliest days of the Wheel on Whitworth Street, for pence not pounds. Aaaah, them were the days. But to answer your final quote on the subject; yes, I would also guess that for many others of my age and older, the Casino probably spelt the end, at least for a while. But sadly, for others, perhaps forever. Denbo.
  17. With same B-side as the original? Coloured or black and white? Any chance of a scan?
  18. Sorry for asking but was it re-issued?
  19. Can anybody enlighten me regarding the two colours that this label seem to have released? Apart from the white Demos, they seem to have released some with a light green label and some with an orange label. And some have been released in both colours. Any advice / opinions welcomed. Does one represent a reissue of the former. In othere words, are green labels originals and orange labels reissues?

    The Captions

    Ooooh, what a record!! £250's a great price, depending on condition.
  21. But is it worth $80? Anyhow, Ste won't pay that much. He'll wait and find one on eBay (eventually) for about $7. Seeya soon Ste. Maybe at the Hideaway / Radcliffe. Defo at the Rhythm Shack on the 4th December, with Guest DJs Dave Byrne and Steve Crooks. Just a little plug there.
  22. Dave, they can be powered from mains so when buying from abroad make sure you ask for a UK plug otherwise it'll cost you another £10 for a power adaptor.
  23. My pal and I thought about that whilst we were at their HQ in Louisville but we don't have the funds to do it so we gave up on the idea almost immediately. But good luck to you Mark, hope it works out for you. PS - Have you heard from Kevin yet on his middle eastern walkabout with Guy?
  24. I may not have kept a copy but I'll check my memory stick tomorrow, gotta dash right now. Or, I could just summarise and say it's got "UNBELIEVABLE TEKKERS"
