Now that is a surprise John Incidently I've a mate (not a soulie) who used to phone me up & tell me to turn on Radio 2 because paul o'grady was about to play some northern soul . Curiosity of course got the better of me & i sat through Frankie Valli You're ready now, Heaven must have sent you, Newbeats bread & butter & similar & then bizarely one week played Andantes Like a nightmare......& mostly it was! Week or so later he played The Sweetest Feeling by Edwin Starr, I have to say I was shocked, not only that I hadn't realised Edwin had recorded the record but that he did it in a Jackie Wilson style I've since given up car crash radio & now count the dots in the pattern on my wallpaper on a sunday afternoon instead

Greg Perry really great 70s soul album doesn't do it justice...................... absolutely brilliant album every home should have one Somebody buy it you won't be sorry

You're very welcome Pete, as I said to you, you've been very good to me over the years on record sales & I just wouldn't feel comfortable taking money off of you. It's a good record enjoy it mate atb Dave

But you did say LP ? (or am i losing the plot here?) Anyway if your sources are reliable It's likely that they're correct ..mine was just an (un)educated guess

Wouldn't that be on something like Inferno/Destiny/Black Magic ? Pretty sure that there was an elongated version of Tainted Love in the late 70s I guess it would be. I think some clever sod just played around in the studio. As good as they were in their day I don't think I'd really want to heat an extended version of either

Yes think you're right Chalky & there's multiple cuts but they couldn't get the intro right, i think Guy got the intro cut off whengetting his "acetate" cut... Think George MacGregor was the drummer on CODs She's Fire............. extraordinary indeed !

doesn't answer the question tho Have seen it listed at up to £100, which was when i started clearing 6 inches of dust off of my copy

Yes been told Patrinelle was involved in the reissue

Since when has rarity made any difference John? Look at the amount of Cashmeres there are about & the stupid price that fetches .......... or just look at manships auction every week

But it's not Lorraine Chandler is it? Thought I remember talk that it's just another scam ?

Lets face it Martyn I think most people are amazed at the prices things go for on the manship auction even though this was a different release to the one that you were talking about. Realistic ? All I can say is I'm glad I lost my particular bidding recently although I do understand how you can "just keep going" & I guess that that is the reason for an auction. To obtain optimum price I've since picked up the item I was bidding on for a much more competitive price. All depends how badly you want it I guess Hope you're keeping well mate All Best Dave

Tobacco stained condensation in the record bar, wear a white shirt you'd look like a dalmation Wish I'd gone more often tho..........marriage & young kids took most of me money

Oh come on somebody must know!!!!!!....I've got a 2p bet riding on this.............'61 never

Anybody have an idea of the going rate for Harold Melvin Praying UK demo ? Thanks Dave

I can vouch that Inspector G Green is not a member of the Soul Police How the hell do I attach a quote to a reply these days ?

Nev, It wasn't from the new site but the last auction on the old one !......... I was after the Gloria Hill Be somebody but I won't hold my breath I've spoken to 3 people I know that own it but nobody wants to sell, it's a great record very poorly produced but more a nostalgia piece for me but if anyones got one

I wasn't implying anything in particular, more a case of I thought it was an online auction only as the website mentions nothing about telephone bidders, though in the "real world" of course that would be the normal procedure. I had the leading bid at 6pm & thought that I should have won the item because prior to that there was 1 minute remaining on the auction site & no fresh bids were present, to me at least. It wasn't Luther Ingram that I was bidding for & apologies Peter for the fact that somehow you have been dragged into my fairly innocent post. Thanks Nev for posting & putting into words much of what I was thinking. This was my very first auction anywhere & probably my last I think I prefer set sales

Nothing to do with the new lay out ( which I don't like compared to the old one) but I always thought this was an online auction, I had a highest bid last week with a minute to go & it sat there for at least 2 minutes & then it announced that I was bidding against a telephone bidder ?

So Pete, knowing what a fair & honest dealer that you are what happened to the 2nd buyer who had presumably paid a fiver for the record ?

Admittedly alot of people no doubt use the soundclips purely for reference & perhaps for this a subscription is understandable but what about those that buy on a regular basis (& I'm not saying that i do) & are now going to be charged £60 a year (if it is, as mentioned a fiver a month) for any "extras". Perhaps I'm being naive or stupid in expecting something extra on the site than just a straight business arrangement? Lets hope Mike doesn't have the same idea for Soul Source

Have seen it listed at £200 a year or two ago....whether it sold or not I don't know. If i could get that I'd probably sell mine but honstly don't know if it's £200 or 20pence ? Anyone sold one recently ?

My homes had one for about 35 years & doesn't need one anymore C'mon who wants one?

Where have you been ? An old bloke like you should know this or the other side at least anyone else want a copy ? pm me

Des pm Toby re tickets or call me & let me know how many you want & I'll speak to him

Ha ha afraid not Samson sorry, great record just surprised at price
