  1. Rare imo...don't see me ever parting with my copy...love it (Apologies for the terrible scan...will re-do later.)
  2. Quite a few of the disco 45s came out on Japanese Contempo as well...as did the JJ Barnes LP!
  3. Oddly enough I sold a copy last night for £50! Got one more available, if anyone fancies it?
  4. Both currently for sale at: >>> AnoraksCorner.com - PRESS HERE <<< In this case, the stocker has the intro and the WD is the edited version.
  5. Out of interest, what is the going rate for this one nowadays? Great track.
  6. I'm here...well remembered as I reviewed it back in '99 for Shades of Soul: >>> Disc Reviews <<< Yes, the flipside is tops...but...the version on this number release is the later recording with added brass, percussion etc as featured on the reissue LP...not as good as the orginal #724 purple label copies...imo.
  7. But that is all too easy! I think at least 25 years of hunting and not knowing are required in order to truly appreciate a disc! Never had or seen a copy...I will ask the guys this evening at the collectors doo to see if they can help.
  8. I've had mis-pressed copies with 1005 labels on them as well. Maybe the guy at the pressing plant was having a bad day and messed up a few recording/label combinations?!
  9. For reference: That Swan label scan showing above is fake made up one, and the Virtue label copy I had was more purple than red...does anyone have a red one?!
  10. I have a few on my site up for grabs, Tony...including demos...also have some demos not listed I maaaaaaaaaay part with
  11. My pleasure...it is One-derful! (Now about that Devotions WD, Franc...you know you don't need it...I'll give it a good home!)
  12. The Virtue guy also recorded for Swan...'No Good' / 'The Boston Monkey', of which NG was Pat Brady's old 'Detroit Wheels' c/up at the tail-end of the Casino days. Collectors beware that the WDs of this one do not feature NG, more's the pity. Must admit I didn't keep my copy of the Virtue disc for long and traded it away to Gerhard in Frankfurt...he may still have it? I'll leave it to the US members to pin-point his accent down as to where in the States he may be from!
  13. Close Franc...'Ain't you lying' is the correct title
  14. Yep, that was there as was his, 'Ain't love good - ain't love proud'...gotta love those red'n'yellows Now, if anyone wants to offer me a 'Landslide' WD as a trade deal, then I'm your man
  15. 'twas a popular spin at the Capitol Soul Nights at the Dome...both Greg and myself would play it, though not twice during the same night, mind! Still have my copy!
  16. I think you can guess what I'm now gonna say...yes it also sneaked out in Japan as a 7" on Decca...in a picture sleeve, of course! I'm a big Len Barry fan. (as with others I love Jackie's, 'Send her away'...pure UK pop production...fabulous!)
  17. Not sad in the slightest, John...totally understand For reference, the Japanese 45 has, 'It's love that really counts' as the main A side.
  18. Fabulous tune...all versions What does the pink label one with added harmonica go for nowadays, in the wake of it appearing on Manship's auction?
  19. Tangent: Is there a red/yellow label release for 'Landslide'? I was offered a decent bunch of early Chess/Checker 45's this past weekend, and x10 were on the lovely looking red/yellow label design (mostly West Coast)...artists included Jan Bradley, Billy Stewart, Tony Clarke, Mitty Collier, Corsairs, Roosevelt Nettles, Eddie Bo...dead nice looking...plus there were some other earlier releases up for grabs from Harvey, Vibrations, Billy Miranda and Chuck Berry etc...I nice little collection! (If anyone is interested drop me a PM as they may still be available.)
  20. Barry Paul Records, bless 'em That takes me back to my early Charly days...I can still recall visiting there for the first time and dealing with Barry and Conrad...it was everything I wished to hope for from dealing with a Laaaandan based store....'what's the deal', 'is that the best price', 'can't you leave some more free stock'...it was great...loved it...is it still there? Record Corner...another regular 'coffee stop' as a rep...never saw any rodents in the cellar, apart from whenI was down there and maybe glanced at myself in a mirror
  21. I have a near mint HOF11 WD of Roy Roberts Exp - 'You move me'... open to offers
  22. How very civilised! I also recall getting a Soul joe Clements in ipswich and a Tony Colton UK demo in Norwich
  23. PM sent I've also updated the original list if anyone else fancies anything...trades welcome as always!
