    I had a red vinyl one fairly recently...sold it before I managed to list it.
  2. Anoraks Corner
    I found one of those yesterday...mint! Mind you, I also recall paying well less than £10 for it in the early 8Ts!
  3. Anoraks Corner
    The last 5 discs I bought..difficult to pin down just five as I got lucky and had another good hit yesterday that included at least x25 absolute corkers..check out the piccie!
  4. Anoraks Corner
    Nice one...bubbling under the radar and ready for turntable action for sure! Have a spare demo for £20...bargain!
  5. Anoraks Corner
    Fabulous OTT production...love it! have a spare WD in M- condition for £25 if anyone is looking
  6. Anoraks Corner
    Thanks mate 100% New Orleans R'n'B...with Northern Soul appeal!
  7. Anoraks Corner
    I've been told it is the other way around!
  8. Anoraks Corner
    Got one of those up for grabs, if anyone fancies a copy: >>> More Details <<<

    Here's a bunch from this classic logo...love the Paul Vann track

    Am aware of the bootleg WD look-a-likes...didn't realise there were also orange stock look-a-likes? The original WDs also have sub-standard quality print, but the vinyl is stamped. I'm also rather partial to their other track on Early Bird, 'Maybe They're Right'...not obvious NS, but a powerhouse, tumbling Soulful delivery that will appeal to others I'm certain (WDs and orange stockers).

    This had spins during the 8Ts and the price went up quite sharpish. The flipside is awesome, called, 'Ha Ha'...although I prefer the mix on their UA LP.
  12. Anoraks Corner
    The original version by Roy Smith on Delphi / Liberty is miles better to my ears...far more NSoul as well
  13. Anoraks Corner
    Great thumping New Orleans R'n'B...what's teh current going rate, please?
  14. Anoraks Corner
    5956 miles (9585 km)...Tokyo to London for last year's Va-Va-Voom, NYE nighter (+ to see family and friends as well ). Will be doing it again this year too!

    Which is the definitive 1st press? The ones with the separate 'block-lettering' of HME, or the ones where the HME letters are 'merged and arched'? Rough valuations for each also appreciated. TIA

    I think it's a different take rather than mix? Agree, a total monster...the drumming and bass are flippin' fantastic and dancefloor friendly!
  17. Anoraks Corner
    I remember paying £8 for my first copy and being disappointed when I played it on my home Hi-Fi, as the drums are too punchy The previously unissued version on the Sony CD compilations a few years ago is MUCH smoother and more Northern imo...check it out

    Slight (!) tangent, but whilst out digging today in deepest darkest Tokyo, I came across a 7" sleeve with some interesting notes scribbled on it...it had several months noted with DJ names next to them: Mick, Carl Fortnum, Arthur and Sam! Made me smile...as did the bunch of discs I found a bit later on
  19. Anoraks Corner
    Had x3 45's released on Japanese Verve...in pic covers...rare...very nice! My fave track by the man is easily the rompin', 'You're Looking Good' on Utopia.
  20. Anoraks Corner
    Fabulous Deep Soul flipside, by the way.
  21. Anoraks Corner
    This one never went massive enough to now be regarded as an Oldie/Classic (due to it being an easy find?). Even more surprising considering it saw a UK release as well. Pure uptempo NSoul that doesn't break the bank balance.
  22. Anoraks Corner
    A worthy project and a sumptuous piece of packaging...but why did the guy in the YouTube clip insist on throwing the discs down to give it some kinda 'weight = quality' approach!? Did anyone else cringe when he cut through the packaging...no protection over the cover, so the blade could've gone and cut the sleeve there and then...ouch!
  23. Anoraks Corner
    Please! Which part of Asia?
  24. Anoraks Corner
    A tune I can happily have on repeat at least x20 times in a row...love it!
  25. Anoraks Corner
    I struggled to sell some spare copies at a mere £15, even though it is a great tune and books higher. I've had both East and West Coast pressed WDs with slightly different design logos. In my experience the red stock copy is rarer.
