watching chapter 5 on e bay bidding is £510 with 3 and a half days to go,so bound to go much higher. but what are the top 3 holy grails of uk collecting

Exactly……even one Mick Smith doesn't have…..

He might do soon ???

timi yuro always seems to get big money

not rare over rated

Not a 45, but the Len Barry LP that Tony Ellis and Richard Searling had, think they were the only know copies, both without a sleeve.

Carl Willingham has one now

So does Julian B

Carl Willingham has one now

I've never seen a white and red UK Liberty Demo of Timi Yuro INBOFM.

 

Are there many of those about?

Why would you?  They'd stopped making red and white demos for two years when that came out.  They'd even stopped green and whites.  There is no demo, you might see one with a sticker on it or a date stamp.

Well that answers that then.

 

Though wouldn't it be nice for one to turn up now

Yes but it can't, because that label design was never meant to have a white demo, if you see what I mean

Yes Pete I see what you mean.

 

I'll give up my 30 year search for Creedance Clearwater Revival White and Red demos now then 

You are quite correct Sir.

The American Youth Choir is very difficult indeed but not a Holy Grail.

PS - I have a spare of the American Youth Choir. PM me if interested in taking it off my hands.

i had a red uk issue of the american youth choir ...brillaint wigan oldie

Yes Pete I see what you mean.

I would LOL  and Canned Heat

not rare over rated

and overplayed.......

Just read all of this old thread I started about uk holy grails and found it strange no one mentioned the darrell banks issue - see post below

 

 

I take your point but I'd say that the Holy Grail tends to differ for each collector in that maybe it's the items you've never had or got that you consider the rarest and most desirable.

I mean anyone would be chuffed to get DB on London DJ but it wouldn't really merit a thread on SS. However I will meet you halfway and say that turning up a London issue would be the HG.

Doesn't exist as far as I know.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if it turned up from some guy who worked at the pressing plant.

Im seeing initials NW and 2014 but it's very blurry

ROD

 

As for myself, I still can't get excited about UK issues.

Question that I mentioned on the DB thread. Was mockingbird - c& inez fox released on London?

and overplayed.......

sick of hearing it ' its almost as bad as hearing Ruby Andrew--just loving you

I've never seen a white and red UK Liberty Demo of Timi Yuro INBOFM.

that because liberty were marketed by phillips by  1969......took over in late 67 from EMI i think,,so no red/green & white demo`s

timi yuro always seems to get big money

they didnt sell many at the time due to the downturn ,less were pressed as demand wasnt there

 

nobody wanted soul in 69 cos they were all on new wave stuff from america

Hi All  the holy grail of UK collectors has been discussed in length over the last 7 days there's only 1 to go,

PAMA 955 does exist if so it may look like this? as a demo, I reckon it was a issue, 95% sure DAVE K

When I had this I think I got it from you didn't I Tabs ? @ £20 .Never had a chance on another , wish I'd kept it .......Best,Eddie

Got my chapter 5 off Tabs in the 70s, I wished I'd had kept that now
