I was gutted that i couldn't get all the tunes i wanted,many years ago...but when i started collecting records at 14 and stopped at 21,i had some nice bits that i now wish i had kept!!!!
(don't we all)i was getting records of J Manship,Richard S,J Anderson,Ian clarke.......etc....spending all my pocket money.
Had things like Professionals,billy woods jimmy mack,jades,eula cooper,shawn robinson,frankie beverly and so on,i would be worth a fortune now.....and living a life of luxury...
I stopped as i had several wants that i thought i would never get....i could if i had more dosh....they were Inspirations-no one can take your place & Magnetics-when i'm with my baby,the other was robby lawson which i got only to sell 3 days after getting...could also have had Don Gardner!!!!!for swop on robby.......and cash!!!!
Does anyone know what these fetch now?
I sold many to a great friend who i saw for the first time in 33 years last summer,Dave Greet(greety)
Oh well i moved on into property and motorsport which is just if not more expensive as too collecting northern soul records!
Now living a different life of luxury in spain.....coming to uk to see old friends and sell a few more bits found in the loft......still gonna keep ISSUE of tobi legend.....how rare is it now!????its left in my will for Dave Thorley.....
Now i look at all the prices of tunes today,where does all the money come from,and its amazing J mansip is still finding NEW MINT records 30+ years old!!!!great man. ...well very rich man now....
Off to the beach to try and forget all those records GIVEN away!!!!for peanuts...
cheers snooky
