  1. did buy the other version of william cummings on bang bang....lovely bang bang w/d for £4..til i got it home and played it.......sold it for £5..£1 profit yaaay ya mug...oh and jim webbs version of i need you....stroll on .....and dont get me started on geoffrey meteliko....................so i dont buy blind or follow recomendations ..lol
  2. bought 3 or four things blind in my younger days...one was dave mitchell the trip on met.........never bought blind or listened to other folks recommendations since i was so fed up i chucked that dave mitchell in dustbin
  3. no i`m not 100% sure which funky funky twist came first blue or green,only that all the other green releases from 508 to 513 all look the same,, i do know the `55` series is before the 50/51 series all issued in 1970.....the 50/51 releases are 1971 & 1972....whats even stranger is why they would use the blue label and put a different mix as a b side..as i said earlier first taste came as an `A` side originally in 1970 with i`m havin so much fun on the flip....the blue and green first tastes have the same matrix (1005) which is odd as really it should be different..........bloody hell it is confusing isnt it..looking at it now the blue release could be after all the green releases possibly from late 1972 and regurgitated as an `A` side and gatur on a budget couldnt be arsed to change the label info .....i think the label went into mothballs again after that for a while
  4. great northern soul version on a rare spanish only 45 vinyl is clean we`ll call it vg++ to be safe , cover is vg+ with tape down one seam £30...posted in uk..pm if interested....ON HOLD https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7R4-CUQkF_Q thanks for looking dave
  5. some nice tunes alex
  6. i did have a uk pye demo of tony colton and a harry starr in the 90`s.......only got a abc demo of tony colton now.....i did see a harry starr quite cheap for sale ..well £90 ..i think is ok....never had that paramount four 45 although i remember it from years ago
  7. the blue funky twist i believe to be before the green funky twist but its later than i`m having so much fun of which first taste was actuallly the `A` side in early 71...i think both recordings of first taste were probably recorded around the same time but the `classic` green version as we know it was issued 1st ..then later as a throw away flip (lol) to funky twist. the `canned` blue version maybe came out in error when gatur resurfaced again but when the label quickly realised the mistake and issued the green funky twist copies..then thruout 72 there were further green releases by willie tee and the gaturs including the brilliant reworking of teasin you
  8. blue first taste is a different recording mick....not sure where it fits in ... the gatur 555/556/557 releases are 1970/early 71..then the label went to sleep for about 9 months then started back again in late 71 into 1972 with 509/510/511/512..all the releases are green. i personally think the blue release came out inbetween these two sets of releases. gatur ran for quite a few years but was dormant for long periods ( when distribution deals fell apart etc).. it started with i peeped your hole card in 1968 originally i think
  9. Released in 1970 with I'm having so much fun on the flip then a year later as the flip of funky funky twist... Both are the same version..
  10. this take is the flip of time brings about changes...the version on the flip of you lied dont seem to be on you tube..will try and post it up https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e1yWI4hAHQ8
  11. both about the same i think.....had em both ..the one with you lied is a little tougher imo..had three of the other with time brings about changes on the flip
  12. nice 2 sider with alternate take of forever and a day on the flip
  13. a great night ..we really enjoyed it...this is what a northern soul night should be about
  14. i wish i could afford to buy one copy let alone 3
  15. forgot about this..have a uk copy somewhere
  16. that must have been heartbreaking now with hindsight........i actually know the guy who bought the 1st copy from him....over 2000 uk pounds.... if you buy rare and expensive records theres a chance you`ll get a bad deal at some point..we all must have..
  17. the 1st copy that spivens put up went for $3300...he had a hundred copies at least...my mate got 10 off him when i put him onto them as i couldnt afford it.....but i did end up gettin a copy for free as a favour returned...which was nice
  18. its 12 months since the ann sextons turned up via 2 ebay sellers..they had around 25 copies each plus a load of gpldwax 45`s percy milem etc....long gone now tho i think a guy in the uk bought a few copies from one of the ebay sellers
  19. a few water damaged labels certainly lol
  20. and america is a big old place...naturally still plenty of time to unearth more gems....more time than we all have....george pepp is not safe... why would it be ,theres still every chance boxes could be found. same as any other rare title.
  21. Seriously rare 2 sider hampered by its own rarity.had the odd spin for over 30yrs but never turned up
