How'd it go last night Mace? Well lI hope?
Yes folks, it was Mace that gave me the lowdown on the Gramo release with Forgetfulness on the flip of Still Waters.
I'm basically after Still Waters no matter what the flip but Mace reckons it's worth getting the release with Forgetfulness as he has a good idea of my taste in music.
Hope to hear from somebody soon?
Denbo.
So sorry to hear this. I didn't know he was ill?
His writings and enthusiasm for Soul Music was an inspiration to me.
It was my Birthday on Tuesday the 1st of September. I'll remember him every year from here on in.
RIP Chris.
Thanks Ken AND what a stonkin' good group the Staples Singers are.
Mavis(?) Staples, for me, has one of those everlastingly distinctivevoices that make me tingle all over, just like Aretha Franklin. I feelrefreshed afterwards.
And now we're doing it again. Besides, who remembers a year ago.
Is your Billy Harner a UK Kama Sutra? If so, then you are one of only six known collectors with a copy.
It's a small but exclusive club.
Hi Flynny,
I have a pal with both the issue and a demo of the 10" 78 and one of them is a 'flexi', can't remember which one though?
Oh, both in one tall frame hanging on his living room wall. Looks good.
Denbo.
No way 'Woe Woe Woe' came out in 1951 Ezzie.
You must be thinking of That Old Black Magic, which is the flipside to Woe Woe Woe, which probably did get released in 1951 but is a 1965 (I think) remix of that '51 release.
Not 100% sure about my facts but I don't think I'm that far wrong.
Any chance you could PM me a sound file of each side? Doesn't have to be the whole record but would be nice if it was. :o)
Seems they also did another on the label, as follows; do you know it?
Academy 114 - Inside O' Me / Two Can Play The Same Game - 1965
It actually cost him $3.50 But It Now and $6.00 postage and packing.
Sold it for either £1300 or £1500 to a well known dealer, who I believe then sold it on for more than £3000.
I can check the details of that last sentence with John if anybody's interested?
I have this 45 that looks pretty bad but plays great BUT it has a small 5mm long by 3mm deep chip out of the outside edge of the record and I am looking for the best way to fill in this gap with something that can be applied whilst still pliable but then sets hard after a short while.
The chip does not quite reach the start of the groove but I am afraid in time it might develop a crack that will spread inwards. Hence the need for this fill in.
Has anybody on here had experience of what I'm attempting to do and can they offer some advice.
All suggestions will be warmly received. Constructive suggestions only please. :o)
Thanks.
Okay, I've read all the postings on this topic and nobody has considered the possibility that the seller might be ill (swine flu) or on holiday.
The situation is made more excitable by the fact that you've won a good record at a cheap price. My advice would be to give the seller more time and try to calm down.
