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.
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 )
Spotted this on popsike. The seller says that the one's without the anti-slip edge are a 90's repress.

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.......
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".
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!!
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.
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.

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)
