"Or start specialising in collecting such records and open an ebay store."
You've encountered Les Harris of San Antonio then Gareth? I hedged my bets and had a battered Primes on Lotta Soul off him at £40 but it arrived and was truly screwed.
Lupton had a mashed copy of the Royal Imperials on Mellow Town that we bought at Lifeline. It had a few stories to tell. Personally i think it had been glued to the wall of a bar or something and then creosoted. Strangely we managed to get a couple of jumps out of it by rubbing it feverishly with alcohol, so perhaps there is hope yet for it?! Maybe if we rub harder a genie might pop out and grant us a 100 box of Arthur Willis and the Tuska back catalogue?
Very strange so conflicting suggestions.......i also thought the Prestatyn programme suggested '64? Could anyone confirm that? Thanks for the replies btw.
When was this recorded? I've heard tell it was '64 which is insane but fantastic, but then apparently the Goldmine 45 says '67 which sounds more plausible.....
Any info greatly appreciated! Thanks!
ps. been to
https://solidhitsoul.com/dellarks.html
but it doesn't give a date although it says Sammy's last release was '66....?
Does anyone know if the flip to Poppin Popcorn by The Highlighters on Rojamm is an instrumental of Amazing Love or the same recording and or cut as released by James Bell ?
Both sides of this are absolutely fantastic, 'Till I Get Home' has got hints of 'Wrap You In My Arms' by the Pro-Fascination for me. Would be very interested to know what you get for this once sold Flan, only wish i could bid on it myself
