  1. All done Ady, All the best Kev Bod
  2. This any good? Let me know if you need the other side or without the sleeve Cheers Kev Bod
  3. I liked Elliot Small at Wigan, but ....... about 37 years on and in the cold light of day... However, on the PLUS side, nice to see someone has found some film of Mr. M's and some of the dancing to add to the youtube version.
  4. There may be some truth in this. Currently on eBay, there's a copy of Lou Ragland on ERIC with bidding at over................................£205!!!!!! (SS member selling, must be very happy - good luck )
  5. The 70's Boot/"Reissue" was styrene. The original Demo and Issue are vinyl.
  6. Spotted this on popsike. The seller says that the one's without the anti-slip edge are a 90's repress. https://www.popsike.com/ORIGINAL-1976-45-JAMES-FOUNTAIN-SEVEN-DAY-LOVER-WITH-ANTI-SLIP-SUROUND/251890648556.html
  7. I think the Ronnie Forte record arrived here in volume in the UK in the late 70's. Similar to Frank Beverly on Sassy and John Bowie. Certainly Pep in Wolverhampton had load's. All mint condition and sold for either £3 or possibly £5. That's when/where I got mine. So, plenty out there but likely to be sitting in dormant collections. And if they aren't circulating and there is demand.......
  8. Blimey, dance floor etiquette isn't what it used to be!
  9. Looks like a great LP. Was yours the Australian MCA as on the JM site? (As with the 45, I think the UNI copy is widely available)
  10. John Manship is selling the LP for £100. Don't know if that helps at all . Great record. https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/d/200455/GREEN,_GARLAND
  11. Sorry Jim, no offence. The John Manship Auction page in post #1 is an ISSUE for £133
  12. This latest one is a DEMO. I bought a demo from Mick Smith via EBAY which has an information/promo page which was originally glued to the sleeve.
  13. I'm sure it must just be me, but every time I return to this thread, this image keeps springing to mind.... https://youtu.be/c3BGWJ8s82Y
  14. Following on from the comments earlier in the thread, you really can hear how it's slower/the vocal was "speeded-up". Seems to give it a different "feel".
  15. Thanks for posting this scan. Must be super-rare. It that yours
  16. Is there an Arctic ISSUE of this? Was it ever issued? I've only ever seen Demo's. I'd be interested to know or see a picture if anyone has one
  17. Hi, I just checked and Dave is correct. Also, the handwriting style is different on the 2 sides Much neater and more visible on the "Alone" side.
  18. These articles are BRILLIANT! Classic quotes.. "there are more ways to kill a pig than choking it to death!!" "If I had a bomb I'd have blown it (the Casino) up 2 years ago" Also a comprehensive list of drink prices!!
  19. This "cover-up" has now found it's way onto the JM Auction. Not covered-up! Shirley Johnson - Too Big To Cry, as someone mentioned previously in the thread I think.
  20. "Velours", "Judy Freeman" and "Towanda Barnes" issues are much less common than the Demo's which are about a fair bit.
  21. Just noticed this on Youtube. I liked it. It's Cecil Washington (in 2011) singing the USA National Anthem. A couple of things came to mind - How GOOD he is - Didn't know he had dealt with Throat Cancer. And this was AFTER he'd had Cancer. hope he's OK now. (apologies if previously posted) https://youtu.be/7JaP7Qq7VTY
  22. Agreed. With the bonus of the Honeybees instrumental on the B side.
  23. I'll have to catch up on those another day I need to be in bed by 10pm these days on account of too much "living for the weekend" in the 70's (when I used to start to get ready to go out an 10pm)
