Soul-slider

There is a boot going around...white demo. Seen it on ebay a few times from some guy in the States, realised they were snyde when another guy had one (German I think?) and he was honest enough to say they're pressings. V-Tone is a very early label, there's loadsa stuff on it from the late 50's early 60's by run of the mill artists.

It's a great dancer, i've just got one in a trade...seen it for anything between £30 - 70. It's actually listed at around £50, it's definitely his best 45! The flip is a great ballad. I reckon it's around 1968(ish). Great horns and beat.

Looked like a great night, does the Emerald City Soul club always get a full dance floor like that? Atmosphere looked terrific.

thats the guy! Think there's one on there at the moment for around $190. I saw one also from him @ buy it now and offered him lower, he came back with $130 so am thinking about it. It looks kosher on the scan.... Need to know the score, like the record but don't want a boot!

What makes you ask? I've just been offered one for $130 (£70ish)....have i been offered a moody copy then? Let me know why you ask this question..... £250 in the price guides.

'Spellbound' is by the 'Poppies' and came out originally on their album only, it did come out on the flip of the boot single of 'Pain In My Heart' (the one with their faces on the label). I must admit though, your acetate is a slightly different cut. Can only presume the flip is by them as well...I have the album and this track is not on it.

Top side ala Motown 1963/64.

Yeah, I sometimes give it a spin at our local small "Soul n' Funk" nights where the order of the day is dance! Always goes down a treat with the young un's.

Not really a stomper...more of a smooth dancer, probably 1968ish, horns and a perfect northern beat. Great mid/slow flip also!

I've only ever seen a UK Stateside copy of 'Nothing Else To Say Baby' with 'Heart And Soul' on the flip. For UK collectors, 'Another Dirty Deal' is on the flip of the Contempo re-issue only.

Steelers- absolute dream of a tune! I managed to get a copy a couple of years back but it aint cheap. Ian Clark had one at the Norwich record fair and it went for £200. I know loads of people who are after a copy. Great Northern Soul dancer!

Could have stuck em on ebay and made a profit (maybe). I have the Gloria Lynne l.p too, only bought it for THAT one tune, the rest of it's crap! Some of the stuff I found I managed to get top dollar/trades for, others i've let go far too cheaply and can't get replacements...Embers, Huns Review, Donald Height....

I know you said anyone had anything recently, well it's certainly getting harder to get stuff on the old boot sales these days. When they first started in the mid 80's you could get some real gems! I once wrote down (for a fanzine article) some of the stuff i've had from boot sales and charity shops....here's 37 I picked up earlier in my life....all for less than a quid and all very collectable! 1.
