    Wish I could say the same thing, but I've never been one for Rock music......... Seriously though, I have never seen it on Inner Ear before - only ever heard of it. Would imagine it to be rockin' horse rare, despite my dislike of the track.

    "Here's the group with the unpronouncable name of the Baja Marimba Band" - Tony Clayton, Peterborough, 1983.

    In "Girl I Love You" by The Temptones, does he really sing "At first I thought she was a lavatory seat"???

    Anyone know who TERECORDS was? Their rubber stamp crops up a fair bit on soul records.

    The Majestics "(I Love Her So Much) It Hurts Me"

    My copy of "Come Back" by Ken Williams has Andy Rix engraved in the run-out....... Sorry - but it's one record I do not want to reunite with the original owner! Love it too much!

    Wasn't Kathy Burke a modette in the early '80s, or a soulie?

    Ken, The copy you have here (MU 1067) is a UK reissue from 1968, intended for sale within the UK. At the same time, MCA brought out a few other reissues, namely "Rock Around The Clock/Shake Rattle & Roll" by Bill Haley (which was the first of 2 reissues of the same track to chart here), and "Rave On/Peggy Sue" by Buddy Holly. As for a value on the Len Barry reissue, I would safely say around £3 at the most. Therefore, these are all retro reissues, in much the same vein as the "Demand Performance" series released by Decca, Deram and London around the same time. Gene

    Not really Stuart - you'd even be hard pushed to sell the "What'd I Say" EP on London for more than £6. Probably due to the fact that most of his EPs contain MOR tracks.

    Yes - seriously overpriced at £500!
  12. Gene-r
    About £10 for a Mint EP with pic sleeve. For some strange reason, none of Ray Charles' EPs have a high value attached to them - not that we should complain!

    I say it's Liam's fault - he should never had married Patsy Kensit in the first place!

    I remember when you sold me your copy in the early '90s for a tenner, Nick!! Hope you, Dawn and the family are well - hope to see you soon. Gene

    Not unless you followed it directly after with "Don't Turn Your Back On Me" as a pleading gesture!!

    Bill Bush, The Oxford Knights, George Smith......

    In the early '80s I bought a copy of "Baby Love" by The Supremes on Stateside from a junk shop, and written on the label in pencil was "Barry The Mod"! Love to think it was an original '60s piece of WOL, but then again, who knows???

    Hi Steve, Actually I thought it was the B-side of the US issue, "Dragnet" that was the TV crime theme? Interplay was composed by the tinkling two, under their full names Derek Cohen and Ray Smith. Released in the US in 1967. Mike McDonald dates from 1970. The 1977 release was the first UK release for either side. As well as seeing it with the orange RCA label, I've also seen issues with the black label, which may indicate that it was still being pressed as late as 1979-1980.

    Why did you burn it?

    Hey Dave - there's no need to bring the poor bloke's private life into this!!

    OK, so wouldn't an inquest be in order for the following, in that case? Detroit Soul - All Of My Life Billy Storm - Please Don't Mention Her Name Seven Souls - I Still Love You (OK, just half an inquest then) Rufus Lumley - I'm Standing Rock Candy - Alone With No Love Lada Edmund Jr. - The Larue The Tempests - Someday .........given more thought, I could go on much longer!!!

    I would say Ree Flores would be more like £1,000 these days (and £1,500 for the Little Willie Falk version). Also heard an inkling that the Caressors is now selling for the high three-figures. Is this correct?

    Given that Jack Hammer's year of birth is documented as 1941, are you sure that the pre-1959 US singles are the same artist? Or maybe a different artist with the same name? Incidentally, "What Greater Love" can be heard on the Goldmine CD "British Soul, Vol.2", and (I think) was the original version from which the reggae version by Teddy Brown was covered. Gene
