Jim Elliott Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Yes, I know it's as old as the hills (no one plays it tho' do they ) but I love it. How much these days? never see it around, saw it once at the 100 in 1987 and never seen it since! Regards Jim. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I love the flip side "ill be lookin back" Worth having just for the sentimental B side IMO 30 to 50 quid in mint on a uk capitol i would think?

Jim Elliott Posted May 17, 2009 Author Share Posted May 17, 2009 (edited) Bloody hell, thats not a bad price considering I never see it . A great sound from yesteryear, a shame the 'northern' scene can't get back to playing underplayed oldies when appropriate, I swear that at a local do the handbag crowd would rather listen to 'lucky number' than this, the northern scene used to command respect, anyway... Better get out and have a look Ta Jim Edited May 17, 2009 by Jim Elliott Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Better get out and have a look Ta Jim I will probably get corrected with price - It is a great 60s club classic - I can't comment on the "northern" scene anymore ...cause I just stay at home collecting records that I like nowdays, due to the very reasons you have just mentioned. That Ketty Lester 45 Ive seen turn up a few times with UK pop dealers - as so does "some things are better left unsaid" I dont think any of her UK 45s are real rare! But what the feck do I know ?

AlanB Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 Got a Uk issue of ebay last year for a tenner .... thought it was a steal!! If I dj'd i'd def play it!! I got UK copy off eBay few months ago for £25. Was listed in R&B section and no one else bid. Doesn't seem to be much demand for what I agree is a great and under-played record.

Craig W Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Just had a version of West Coast by Pegi Boucher arrive on Hiback. Its a bit more frantic than the Ketty Lester version , not in the same class though , in fact its pretty crap. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Haydn Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Has been played out at the Belmont in the past by myself, bought from a glass case in Oxfam for £9.99 in company bag. A British minter too! Result! Even the oldies crowd think it as a newie due to underplays H Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
