    Thanks Mike, All the best, KB

    I added this to the "Obscure Foreign Release" thread a few years ago. Mine plays the standard version on the UK 45. (Dutch version)

    I assume you've seen the one on John's (Manship) auction? Finishes on 26th May. John usually gets very enthusiastic bidders and achieves top prices. However, sometimes you can come away with a bargain. Good luck https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/the-chants-baby-i-don-t-need-you-love-a-man-without-a-face-rca-victor-1754.html

    Not sure if they have it in stock but might be worth a try.. https://www.ksl-online.co.uk/product/tip-flight-ready-7-inch-100-record-box/ Good luck with the search.

    The Present - Many's The Slip Twixt The Cup And The Lip (or baby the world really turns). At 15 words, it's a "Big 'Un". Also, nice to see a bit of "ye olde english" featured. (p.s. - I also liked the song at the time and still do)

    My copy has the exact same markings. So, I'd say it's legit.

    Hi, It was interesting that the VAT wasn't shown on either .co.uk or .com. I've had lot's of enjoyment from buying cheap records on eBay over the years. However, with VAT on the item value and postage, I don't think I'll bother. As mentioned above, it's OK if you get an expensive record, say £500 for £250. The postage and VAT still mean it's decent value. In the past, I've taken the potential VAT and post office handling charge into account when dealing with a seller I haven't bought from in the past. Now it's certain to be added, ALL my bids will be 20% lower.

    Just won a record on Ebay. Record - $4.25, postage - $14.75, VAT - $3.80 = Total $22.80. The VAT addition is shown on some items but not on others. It wasn't showing on this one. No big deal but I did wonder if it would escape as VAT wasn't mentioned.

    You're right Rob - please excuse the pre-festive brain fade!

    It depends if you class "The Drifters" - There Goes My Baby, as Soul. That was 1958.

    Interesting. The Quinvy single credits "Varner/Crump" as writers. The "Outta Sight" recent(ish) reissue credits "Wexler/Burns"!!

    Hi, Thanks for that, I've never heard the Wilson Pickett before. Are you sure the record you heard wasn't Don Varner? That was getting some plays a few years back. From the credits it looks like DV was co-writer.

    I still use my NAD 3020e. I bought this new in the late 80's. Still works well and loud enough to be offensive in a domestic setting!! It has the mono button, treble, bass and balance control. Battleship construction. Plenty for sale on eBay

    I would have thought about £125 for a nice copy. Great record but somehow doesn't seem to be reflected in the price on a UK one. Page 2 for the first UK demo's. I have seen them hang about when advertised at about £80ish https://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?searchtext=tommy tate &sortord=dprice&pagenum=2&incldescr=&layout=&sprice=&eprice=&endfrom=&endthru=&bidsfrom=&bidsthru=&flabel=&fcatno=

    I have an issue and demo as above. There's also a demo with "reservice" on the label...(pic from popsike)
  16. Bo Diddley
    Could it have been to give it more "credibility", perhaps masking the Tailor Made element? Or would that not have been on his Radar. The Right On label says "recorded at New Moon Studio"
  17. Bo Diddley
    Thanks for the background info - I never knew, and would never have guessed, it was a "Tailor Made"!! One of my favorite records. So, the New Moon and Right On versions are both original? (the New Moon issue looks the best!!!) Cheers Kev Bod
  18. Bo Diddley
    Hi, I can't seem to open the picture with the prices. Any chance you could list them again. Thanks
  19. Bo Diddley
    Well done Kev, you put a lot of time and effort in and it was worth it.

    a Jamaican 45 on eBay.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/AL-GREEN-TIRED-OF-BEING-ALONE-GOD-IS-STANDING-BY-45-RPM-RECORD-M2/223823038568?hash=item341ce48868:g:Do8AAOSwyKleCVmU

    Add in Nabay - Believe it or not. This was a big one for Pep and would probably have still been covered up as "The Detroit Sound"
