  1. Thing is Dave, there are people who "could" have been fooled and if wasn't for Karl's FB page, it "might" have not been ratted out in the way it was (I had no idea) and a young gun, with a large bank account could have bought a pup. There are, as you know, plenty of counterfeit purchase histories spattered all over popsike and other auctions. I have never seen much about the whole Vent label and publishing and always had may doubts about the LP's background and maybe this might shed some light to satisfy my curiosity, if nothing else, maybe that is for another thread (unless I missed it)
  2. There is little to argue with that and we ALL agree mistakes can be made. I and others, I guess, are just hoping that John will tell us HOW the error occurred. John quotes "The Home of Rare Vinyl Records John Manship Records have been supplying collectors worldwide with rare vinyl records since 1969. We are universally recognised as a world authority on rare soul vinyl. Our whole stock has been handpicked and is arguably the most comprehensive stock of rare soul vinyl anywhere in the world."
  3. Your "rare soul" FB page has no doubt saved a trusting buyer from spending on a potential disaster.
  4. Here are the group members
  5. Selecta Disc and 1976 are very interesting connections, did SS boot it then as a white one, I wonder ? Rob may remember it if someone asks him
  6. Indeed and me more than most, however, this was a big deal and a big ticket thing and I would have expected John to get this right, with his experience and vast knowledge, I don't get it at all.
  7. He described it on his auction totally differently and convinced me (at first) it was a grail and has made, IMHO, a huge error. Perhaps the blonde girl from Bristol (I forget her name) will interview him again and question what happened, so we can watch on You Tube, but some how I doubt it and he will be hoping that the story will go away very very quickly. I think it will be very honourable of him to tell us the facts, his wife is on here now, maybe she will do it.
  8. Been around £100 price for a few years so someone got a bargain........not
  9. Can't wait for a conversation about The Ethics on his next auction, what a blast that will be
  10. John will tell you if you ask him, surely (in confidence)
  11. I sort of meant without the private bits crossed out as I am genuinely struggling to see John ever sending mail like that to anyone, he keeps his business very private and would love and be amazed to be proved wrong
  12. I have never known John ever break confidentiality about anyone before, so you are very lucky you managed to get him to do that. Can you show us the email please ?
  13. Well remembered, I forgot to wonder
  14. If he does, he can stop at our house (we have a sun bed for those performance tans)
  15. Great tune and one of my top ten now, it was missed by so many people, being on Acid Jazz label ? £50 but will increase when the Northern DJ's hear it and claim it is their's Those CD things ruin my stylus though, so I bought plastic
  16. Will he do one of those "50 only" things so you can get one
  17. I think Henry Stone's Hot Productions who released this CD in 1996 went belly up in 1998 and were just doing CD's
  18. It sold on eBay 20th August for £19 (demo) I might post it as one of the "funniest" things I have ever read "excruciating" rare
  19. Because not all bootleggers have brains
  20. Somebody got a bargain then at £205 16 bids "THE SILHOUETTES, NOT ME BABY, NORTHERN SOUL. VG++, lovely play, rare 70's reissue."
  21. I totally agree, what is wrong with 2nd class signed for in the UK (covers up to £50) and is £2.93 cost to seller
  22. I know this was on the thread, but worth looking at again as Mr Hollis was Therman AKA Thurman and that may help in searches.
  23. Bobby is known to have been with group called Bobby Brown and The Tune Twisters I saw a benefit concert poster once from 1996, but can't find it now !!!!, I am sure / think it was from Highland Park
  24. Love the connection Karl not these guys again ? It appears that The Tootsie Roll was a dance "thing".
  25. In 2019 we had the most fantastic thread and am glad you have put it all together, nice one This as a great read in this link from 2002 https://soulfuldetroit.com/archives/1/620.html?1029729391
