I found a Chuck Wood 45 on eBay in VG to VG plus condition someone has for 99.95. I contacted him and I said I would buy it at $25 in that condition. They responded that no, they wouldn't take $25 and that I should go buy a reissue on GEMM. Nice.

I think things on eBay are really hosed up at the moment. I have 2,300 items in my store and have had sales drop off 90 percent from previous months. I will need to call them tomorrow.

I found Ace Records' Jean Wells Soul On Soul CD second hand over the weekend and enjoyed it except for "Roll Up Your Sleeves, Come Out Loving. It had drum machines, really bad backing instruments and was quite jarring considering the rest of the CD had proper drums, etc. I had to skip past it after 30 seconds of listening. Can anyone shed any light on this track? I am assuming it was a 80s production? Many thanks.

I have been friends with him and am also friends with Willie Henderson on Facebook, who just posted the news. He recently posted about buying his book and receiving a bonus CD of material he produced. Thank you for all of the great music you were involved with!

Will there be a Sunday Soul Session in December, or is everything finished in September? Cheers.

The one I had was drill-holed as well. Apparently it didn't sell well?

Hello, I had a copy of this that I just sold. Did this ever come out on vinyl? The copy I sold was on strene, and a friend of mine had 2 copies over the years, and both were on styrene. Cheers.

I know someone who has a store in Bellevue, Nebraska (Omaha) that has a record dewarper, but it only works on LPs. I haven't seen one for 45s, but if anyone has seen one, let me know!

I am a frequent-enough user that I pay for access. I pay the 6 months worth of access. It's very much worth it.

Anyone?

I had the chance to see him perform live at SoulTrip 2009 in Chicago. A class act all the way!

Hello everyone, I picked up some 45s last weekend, and one was a record I'd never seen. It's a white label promo for P.J. for (I've Given You) The Best Years Of My Life, V.I.P. 25062 from 1970. So, I have a few questions. I did a bit of online searching and didn't find what I was looking for. 1) Who the heck was P.J.? 2) Did this record make it past the promo stage? Many thanks!

It's great to see they interviewed Mr. Turntableterra Barry Simpson! Nice one!

All available and will consider offers. Cheers.

I was digging through a box of records I got last week that included this one. I can provide some photos. The record comes in a plain paper sleeve with a red stamp in Japanese on the top of the sleeve with an A and B label with Japanese writing on it. It's definitely an acetate. It's mint. I briefly played it to ID it. Any idea on value on something like this? I can't imagine there are that many knocking about. Cheers!

A great pair of tunes, indeed!

This R. Kelly song would have been so much better if they wouldn't have used a drum machine.

I have found the clips on you tube to decide if I want to purchase a record or not. There have been times I bought a record I heard a clip of a record I might not normally have chanced it on buying.

Hello, I have the chance to purchase this on an out of town trip this morning. It is marked $300 (which I know is too high), but it is another dealer, do he has offered to lower it to $240. I would be in at $200 or so. Aren't there copies that also have My Dearly Beloved? Any help would be great. Cheers!

Hi Everyone, I was listening to a soul compilation on my computer and heard this track. How often does this 45 come up for sale, and what's it going for these days? Many thanks!
