For new people joinging the scene it is just not possible to assemble a collection of the classic oldies or much talked about tunes. Unless you've got stupid money to throw around. In days gone by people had the luxury of buying a few turkeys as prices were so much lower. So basically any mistakes could be taken on the chin with the knowledge that a lot of other purchases turned out to be great tunes and good value. Now you can still buy cheap soul these days that is great but you won't get hold of the classics or big dancefloor tunes for prices paid in days gone by. And there are not enouigh people interested to create a new scene based around these cheaper tunes. The scene is so far removed from what it should be its dead on its feet and it will never recover. Sorry to be negative but i tried with the northern scene for quite a long time and got so disaillusioned by it. Its just a joke these days. I still love soul music as a listening medium and still collect when time and money allows but as for a scene I can't ever see it happening again.

If the guy wants to stay annonymous thats up to him. I don't know who it is and I don't realy care.... he's just getting on with his business and I don't see anything wrong with that. I do see his name against a lot of 45s but I also see a lot of other bidders should we start talking about everybody ?

you sure willie mcdougal is only rated at 25-50 ? i'd have said 150 minimum and 200 not unreasonable.

just sold for a lot on ebay so that would be best place for this. Can't remember exact price but it was about $700 or $800. Its the deep soul flip I like so I saved myself a lot of money by buying the radio city release

this surely must be some elaborate p**s take

this could be the longest list of people i've ever seen reading a thread on here...... Some of the best nigths at the union where Rob was a resident it was realy special then. I know very rare 45s have been given to early doors to to play before a major name has turned up with it to play. All good humour at the time but this occasion sounds different. James I wouldn't worry about it there are far more important things to worry about than this. Its irrelevant in the scheme of things.

Brian is a good guy. Check out his comprehensive georgia soul website and you can see he's a true soul fan.

thanks for pms and info here. I just need to hope everybody misses the next ebay copy. Seems to be pretty elusive.

Is he somebody who posts on here ? prehaps we will see his wants list now. I'd go on a pretty special holiday myself one I couldn't normally afford.

My daughter is 15 months old and she is developing some pretty nifty dance moves. She listens to a lot of soul music and hasn't complained once.

BUMP if nobody has this for sale does anybody at least have an opinion on difficulty / price etc etc. cheers

Different record admittedly but my copy of Sheppard Brothers on the Gene label looks M- and plays with a bit of background noise. I just put it down to the label not having high quality of press. I do need this EW to sit next to Ted Ford, Sheppard Brothers and Lee Maye but it certainly seems to be the most expensive one. Thanks for clip Simon I think we have discussed this before and you kindly mailed me a full mp3. Somebody certanly did. Its "begging you back" that I like.

based on that end price the Ernie Wheelwright that finished on ebay a couple of months ago for about $750 was a good buy. I thought that was about as high as this copy would go. But its a great 45 i've been looking for a while and not seen one I could afford.

looking for this if anybody can help. Dylan

"its no mistake" is the one of his i'd be buying....

oh well I doubt this will effect the value of the originals. Plenty of people must have this in some format or other now.

surely this isn't 100 quid ????? I don't think you will have to pay more than 20.....

just loads of stuff to trawl thorugh. A good place to start might be the CD's in the Americas Most Wanted series uo tp 3 volumes now I think ? And the sleeve notes are very informative on all of them so you'll get directed to lots of other stuff. Not purely WQ but I guess you'll find plenty to enjoy. happy listening

mmm..... I heard that for the first time not so long ago at a soul blog. No idea on price first time i'd ever come across this but i did like it a lot.

this is terrific good choice. 5 from me. Innersouls "take your time / thoughts" Plemmons Walter B "Before I fall in love / mans way of life" Sunshine Lon Rogers "My girl is a soul girl / too good to be true" Ramco Barbara Hall "Big man / broken hearted" Tuska Buddy Cantrell "Ain't no good / why did you leave me ?" Tuska which leads appropiatelyt to WHY did I sell this grrr.......

voices was selling the TB for £2.50 not that long ago.... can't believe some of the prices i've seen it for lately. Barmy....

manship has m- (exceptionals) and vg+ (exceptional 3) copies not sure if these are at prices you want to pay ? "what about me" is the side for me.

mmmm must be on a few wants lists that 45 its certainly been on mine for a while. good luck. I've tried all the obvious places.

Annette Snell on Epic easy on demo but well worth searching out the issue for the flip.
