Sounds nice. Did you put the instrumental on by mistake?

Had the pleasure of knowing Alan and dj'ing with him at the Hitsville Weekenders. Lovely bloke, very knowlegeable and a pleasure to be in his company. Perhaps dedication to Soul is'nt measured by how many records you've got but by your actions. I will never forget Alan hauling himself to Florida to meet the Harthon production team, when most of us, in his state of health, would'nt have made it to the corner shop! God bless mate. Dave

John Manship sold it on auction a couple of years ago. I think Mick Holdsworth from Wolvo paid about nine hundred for it. A true rarest of the rare as far as 33's go. Tony Ellis from London has a copy, used to play it at Yate.

There was one on here for two grand about a year ago. I got it for fifteen hundred. I wish you a lot of luck at six hundred!

Does anybody have a Bobby Bland "Yum Yum Tree" demo for sale. I just missed one off Mick Smith at Cleethorpes for £25. I'll give £35 for a nice clean pink one. OOh matron!!

Not strictly relevant but interesting. I had the jawdropping pleasure of meeting Sammy, Ron and Eddie on Kev Roberts Soul Trip to New York, a couple of years ago. They told me the record was actually cut in Greenwich Village, not New Jersey.

Bloody hell Sean! Where did you dig up that Betty Fikes video from? Fantastic!!

Guilty as charged.

Not the first time my records have been called strange!! If it was seventies sounding it would either have been The Soul Sensations-No more then before-AudioPhonics or Harold Andrews-Stop leave me alone-Balance. I'd love to do a soundfile but that's way beyond me. Don't have the Crow. Hope this helps.

You normally see nice clean issues for about £80, so I guess a very clean demo would be about £175. You did'nt mention condition. Best wishes dave

Best ad I've seen in years! Don't think there's a career waiting for you in the Diplomatic Service though! Hope you're well. Dave.

There's always our house Dave. Lot of beer, a few tunes and free to get in. Well, it is for me anyway! Not sure my record room dancefloor could accomodate our two waistlines! Let me know when you're over. Take a lot of care mate.

Fantastic track, recently went for over £300 on JM's. This is a tough album on Antelope Records out of Holland. Cover is ex+, vinyl is almost m-. "Touching and caring" is 5.34 minutes long, longer then the 45. £60 inc p+p. Pm me or email dgreet211@btinternet.com. Thanks for peeping. Dave.

Thirty poundsish for a nice clean copy. Pm me or email dgreet211@btinternet.com. Thanks Dave.

You're such a name dropper!! I'll throw in The Dells, "Wear it on our face".

ALL SOLD SOMEONE BOUGHT THEM ALL THANKS

Found in Chicago on Kev Roberts Soul Trip. These records are vg but I will describe sound and appearance as accurately as I can All prices include recorded p+p. Youngblood Smith. "You can split" Verve dj. £50. Sticker on label. Slight crackling at the beginning. Plays excellent. Still some shine. Bargain Marvin Smith "Who will do your running now" Mayfield. Slight pops and crackle at the beginning. Great for djing. £25. Harold Melvin "Get out" Landa. Very slight label tear. As you might expect surface noise over quiet intro. Plays fine otherwise. £20. Cheques or cash preferred. Paypal, add the charges please. If you really think you've been shafted, money back guarantee (what at these prices!!). More to come later, We the People, Jackie Wilson, Because etc, better condition. PM me or email dgreet211@btinternet.com Thanks.

Yes of course Richard did'nt contribute anything to the music. How selfish of him to be born white and in Lancashire instead of a black American! His choice of music has given myself and tens of thousands of others a whole lot of pleasure over a lot of years.

Have listened to Richard since Wigan. The man has impeccable taste in music. Will have to start going out earlier on Saturdays now. What a blow!!

Hi Dave. I have the 4 Tops "Is there anything I can do" on a French EP. Cover is vg++, vinyl is ex. £45 if you're interested. The only way to get it, I believe. Best wishes Dave. email dgreet211@btinternet.com

Thanks Girth. The right name always helps, does'nt it? Thanks for your help. dave.

I've heard Eddy Edmonson play this on his excellent Solar Radio show. In reply to my email he had very little info for me apart from the fact he thought it was an album track only. It's a new one on me so can some clever bugger out there tell me label, price it should fetch etc. Even better, would someone like to become my bestest friend and sell me one! Perhaps we could work a trade or something. PM me or email dgreet211@btinternet.com Heres hoping.

I have a Flint Emedralds. It does'nt look too good but plays fine. Unfortunately, I paid too much for it £300 which obviously I would want something like that back. If you're interested let me know. Best wishes Dave.
