    This is the Volumes on UK Pama
  2. Mick Holdsworth
    I'd say about £50 (at least that's what I do them for) Bit more if it's a demo. Cheers Mick
  3. Mick Holdsworth
    No, just the yellow issues Cheers Mick

    As does the WD boot of Walter Jackson - Where Have All The Flowers Gone. I can't recall any boots that have been holed, but as Pete says he's seen some, they must out there. Although I know what the hole is for, why are they called "BB" holes - I'm sure it's obvious, but can't work it out. (it took me many years to find out what c/w and b/w actually stood for, probably as late as 1980 before it finally dawned on me, so I was simply years behind on that. A small digression, but I still haven't got a clue what "sic" means. Seen it a lot in listings etc. is it something to do with a sticker mark ? Cheers Mick

    Just seen a White Demo on USA very recently (John Manship or Pat Brady, someone like that) - Don't recall seeing one before, although they are probably out there. Cheers Mick

    Plus two different demos. One with A side (when you take a chance ...) and one as a reserviceable double B side (Can't Stop A Man ...)
  7. Mick Holdsworth
    Can't seem to find any on You Tube - do you have a link ? Cheers Mick
  8. Mick Holdsworth
    He means Boz Scaggs - obviously someone put out a gagging order out on him. Cheers Mick
  9. Mick Holdsworth
    Yes I did, Maybe they couldn't find a decent period pic of Frank Wilson (other than nicking one from the net)
  10. Mick Holdsworth
    Yes Mark - this was an early (and wrong) suggestion that the numbers held the key. It became apparent a few hours after, that the numbering had nothing to do with it. You simply have to open them and hope for the best. Cheers Mick
  11. Mick Holdsworth
    Why not open it - might be full of Marvin Gaye / Spinners
  12. Mick Holdsworth
    The missing record is actually Marvin Gaye / Spinners (my mistake in saying Originals the earlier post) Seems it's the same packing error that keeps occuring. I'm sure to offset this, there will be an equal amount of packs with 2 x Marvin and no B. Mcnair surfacing soon. If that has already happened to anyone yet, let us know. Cheers Mick
  13. Mick Holdsworth
    Might be there's no way to tell, especially if they were packed at a different stage to being numbered. I suspect for every pack with 2 x Barbara McNair, there is a pack with 2 x Originals/Marvin in it - might have to organise a swap centre when the dust settles. Just tried to get a replacement and it's not available anymore, only a refund - Dilema.
  14. Mick Holdsworth
    It appears the high numbers (1800 +) are the "defective" packs, whereas the low numbers (100+) are all OK. Unfortunately that leaves a whole bunch that are either good or bad
  15. Mick Holdsworth
    Just received 2 sets today - one set is all correct with the seven different records, but the other set has Marvin Gaye missing and 2 x B McNair. Is it possible to send just the one pack back to Amazon, or do I have to send both packs back and hope the replacements are both correct.? Cheers Mick
  16. Mick Holdsworth
    But is this the version the opening post is referring to ?- Can you point us in the right direction for this Sany Wynns CD you have, then we can compare etc. Cheers Mick
  17. Mick Holdsworth
    I think it's the same place in Hanway Street, if so this was "Rocks Off". Remember going in there a few times about 30 years ago and dropping records off for the guy to sell. (Think the chaps name was Stan). Cheers Mick
  18. Mick Holdsworth
    John, The SOS boot of the Vibrations - Cause You're Mine, had the writing credit down as J. Manship and someone else. Maybe that's what you're thinking of. Cheers Mick
  19. Mick Holdsworth
    In addition, I always felt that Al Greene was a cross between "Please Let Me In" and "Sweet Sherry" Cheers Mick
  20. Mick Holdsworth
    This is Robert Spencer - Our Wedding Day Cheers Mick
  21. Mick Holdsworth
    A similar scenario could have arisen with the Grapevine releases of Diane Renay - "Can't Help Lovin' that Man", and Construction "Hey Little Way Out Girl", both issued as the cover-up artists. I don't know about the former's sales, but I'm sure the latter sold more than a few at the time. If it had made the charts, would Top Of The Pops have searched for archive footage (if they could find any) of the Del Capris and aired it on TV. And just like Lorraine, any band members would have wondered what was going on. Cheers Mick
  22. Mick Holdsworth
    You're right - it can be heard on the soundclip for the eBay item
  23. Mick Holdsworth
    Yeah, just tried changed one in turbo lister just to see for myself, and it says £50.00 minimum. That one passed me by
  24. Mick Holdsworth
    John, are you saying to list on eBay with a minimum bid, the reserve has to be £50 or more ? If so, when the hell did that start ? The last time I had any kind of reserve on anything was a good many years ago, and although there would have been records with higher reserve than that, there would most definately have been much lower reserves on lesser items. Glad I don't do reserves, either start it at what I want for it, or take a chance. Cheers Mick

    The vocal is by Jimmy Ruffin - "Shake Hands With A Dreamer" Cheers Mick
