  1. it probably goes under the radar as far as far as popsike is concerned. it was a small pop hit and a fair sized R n B hit on chess & i think it came out twice ?????. the motown 1st release is much rarer and then chess picked it up for national release. chess demo is nice though not sure of price on that dave
  2. is that a large definately sebastain......................were you at the session or something. not convinced about it being the same group as the chex /vip outfit altho it does sound as though it could be 65 rather than 68 . was the rampart copy issued in 68 or is that earlier dave
  3. there was one in sales last week @ £20 but i think it sold within minutes. way too cheap really. when you consider how many there are dave
  4. pete had it on ebay last week as a buy it now for £45. i had it in my watches and thought about it coz its a rarer stock copy. its a shame coz some of these big city beat ballad productions are immaculate but price wise there dead in the water and demand is not what it was 10/15 years ago. theres hundreds of titles like this.....................shameful really dave
  5. tom jones did a decent version on his help yourself lp from 1968. not quite jerry fuller but not bad. the same lp has i cant break the news on dave
  6. i dont think the chex /vip group are anything to do with the linda outfit.. i shouldnt take that artical as gospel mate dave
  7. youre right in the order of pressing but the majestics wasnt issued til 1968 david & ruben 1969 its not early or mid 60`s or owt like that dave
  8. i think its worth that but i got lucky and picked one up for £10 last year. ive known this 45 since the very early 80`s but never owned it til now dave
  9. usa issue is blue and not green or at least ive never seen a green one of this or any other usa philips release? my copy is uk bought from mick smith in 1990 for £20 it was mint tho. played at morcambe tho could have been played before. i have an NME magazine from sept 1968 where derek johnson reveiws the uk release and he thought it was poor with no chance of being a hit but he also says that about carl carlton competion issued on action the same week .the man obviously had no idea dave
  10. IT WENT FOR NEARLY £90. THATS MORE THAN A PYE DEMO WOULD SELL FOR.UNBELIEVABLE DAVE
  11. https://shop.ebay.co....&_sop=12&_rdc=1 cheers dave
  12. come to think of it i think you want to change me came out in canada although i may have seen the one copy. it looked like a uk copy with a big hole and a usa catalogue number im 99.9% certainand in my experiences the canadian philips 45`s from the 60`s are vinyl. ive seen a mint usa issue recently for £100 but i think that too dear even for one that doesnt hiss. i would say £60 in any format that plays well and bugger all if it hisses dave
  13. bloody hell moon river by greyhound. that was in the top 20 in 1971. it came out on trojan. i remember my mum buying it off thurnscoe market at the time. how long is it since you got that copy nev. i cant recall ever seeing it. i paid £10 for a pye issue about 8 years ago. still got it. my mate got one of those lou curtans fairly cheap on ebay and thought he was on a winner. i did tell him it was a beach boot but he kept it dave
  14. bf 1702 is the uk copy with great fidelity. dont know of any european release. im afraid its pot luck with the usa release. never seen a vinyl usa copy the majority of issues & demos do seem to hiss alto there are good copies around dave
  15. me, our bri & steve mank ran a monthly do thruout 1994 at the royal electric theatre. initially very sucessful but again we had trouble with finishing times ( they wanted us out for midnight) so after the november one we knocked it on the head. also had a go at running the empress in the90`s with varying degrees of sucess dave
  16. another top venue sadly missed. we went as often as possible in the 90`s picked up some nice 45`s there as well dave
  17. we dj`d there more than a dozen times over the years and never missed as punters as it was and still is walking distance from our houses. they had all the top dj`s there and i even went there for my batchelor do in 1992 (as well as the mandetory trip to blackpool). last do as i remember probably late 90`s ....97 maybe. i have a video somewhere with some footage on that pete mcshane did. they were happy days indeed. they have always had trouble with the locals and noise levels there tho dave
  18. there was a free angela lp for sale on doncaster indoor market a couple of years ago. this ginger haired bloke had load of soul imports and uk motown at £2 each so i mopped him up.this lp was stuck on the wall but he`d got £30 on it for some reason so i left it. i did take jesse fisher on way out ,ideals on boogaloo and a uk come spy with me and loads of other bits tho so not too sad dave
  19. at least the same as uk copy as it appeals to collectors of 45`s with big holes in emplus its much rarer than uk copy. there is a spanish promo too. looks the same but it says err......... promociano on it dave
  20. could have been polished up with furniture polish i.e mr sheen or something. this comes off as well. try slow running cold water.a bit of squeezy , wipe round with a clean cloth.repeat process, then finish off with more slow running water then dry off. i do this with every 45 that goes thru my hands. gets shit and static out of the grooves. if record is fucked it dont help but it wont harm it anymore either. worth a try dave
  21. £750 SOUNDS ABOUT RIGHT TO ME DAVE
  22. IM GOOD RICHIE. HOPE ALL IS WELL WITH YOU. I THINK YOU`RE RIGHT. IVE NEVER SEEN VINYL COPIES OF ALFIE DAVISON EITHER BUT IM ALWAYS PREPARED TO STAND BEING CORRECTED DAVE
  23. AS NEV SAYS GOOGLE VINYL CARVERS AND TAKE IT FROM THERE. IVE NEVER HAD EM DONE BUT IM NOT AGAINST PEOPLE THAT DO MY ISSUE IS STYRENE AND ALL THE DEMO`S IVE SEEN ARE STYRENE. NEVER SEEN VINYL COPIES BUT THEY COULD EXIST DAVE
  24. and im sure thats what douglas will do if thats good enough for him. but but reading between the lines he wants it on vinyl....................................... and not everyone can afford to splash out £400 on a 45
  25. where did that come from nev, is that delta thingy a new press as i have never seen it before. if its a 70`s press must be rarer than the magnetics on bonnie. the seller say its uk lp only as well. hmmmmm
