I don't know if this has been covered elsewhere on the forum this week but FW signed single is on ebay today for a cool £150, 000 squids! Given the recent flux of wallys selling run of the mill records for big money maybe some mug will actually buy it?
EBAY
Recently I went out looking for one myself but they seem to be thin on the ground nowadays, closest thing I could find was from Westend DJ in Hanway St London, £45 to start, a bit steep for me on the day. google em.

Ive been corrected on another forum, the total fee to the seller was 28.8% ergo 28.8% fee of £15000 = £4320
The buyer would have payed £15,000 + 33.6% Fees (as he was bidding on The-Saleroom website, total paid = £20,040.
This should serve as a warning to anybody thinking of selling through a trad auction house, the final sale was minus 28.8% of 15000 = £4320 = a takehome of £10,680 ! A loss of £4000 off the original price he bought it for
Take note: the case was about the bootlegging only, expect these lads to be reappearing again sometime soon for cheating the HRMC, probably be getting extra time for that? Presumably KENT should get on the case if these lads were bootlegging Kent records?
By coincidence an old mate of mine who sold records had a large supply of those "not for sale" stickers and used to stick em to any old records. For uk pressings they should be on mid 1060s Fontana/ philips only I think anything else = FAKE.
in the UK both Mod & Rockin scenes have completely crossed over with mostly RnB type tunes. I first heard that Black Coffee tune way back in late 80's at a rocking do..
This record is another band with same name, they are ALT-Rock and from Canada.
The band photo is from the Cotillon album which is pysch rock ? I am not 100% convinced thats the same group as on compared to what either.
Its a religious disco song. See this webpage https://www.sofarecords.fr/the-african-souls-masekini-hallelouia-musique-tshiluba/i3037322024,2 the african souls - hallelouia- a lot better I think
