I used to have about 3 of these I couldn't sell them for £15.00 I even gave one away in Spain
Danny Austin a singer with both the Ad Libs and Spellbinders passed away Saturday evening in New Jersey. Danny toured the UK with the Spellbinders in 1966 & 1967. A smashing bloke and a great singer. RIP
That's true Pete, I tend to transfer everything over to my bank. The majority of my purchases are in the US, they seem to take Paypal charges in their stride.
Here, here !! It's just a way to skim off a few shekels - thing is if you ask if seller wants to be paid via Friends/Family he'll pretty much always say "yes". I prefer a bank transfer, no fees there.
Depends on when in the 70s, from 1970 to 1973 not very big, I can only think of about 10 venues and not all of them weren't open every week and not all nighters. I guess it became bigger from about 1974 onwards once Wigan had established itself.
I suspect that these high prices are due to "Bobby Weekend" DJs who can afford £100 but not £1500 for a record. Surely most people attending these venues will know that the DJs don't own these rarities ?
If it was in Aptil B & S then the article would have been written well before that date.
I couldn't find any dates on the MFP album, maybe it was released before '74 ?
