Posted September 20, 200915 yr Cant undersatnd why this is still fetching so much. great record thou, there's one here having said that the bidding looks strange https://cgi.ebay.com/NORTHERN-SOUL-45-LITTLE-TOMMY-BABY-CANT-YOU-SEE_W0QQitemZ250496657516QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item3a52c3a86c&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14
September 20, 200915 yr Played it last night @ a rammed 6 Hills! Still does the bizzo in my book Nige B
September 20, 200915 yr Maybe highly in demand, but has turned up on ebay quite often, last ones I saw were $1200 tops... Edited September 20, 200915 yr by hermanthegerman
September 20, 200915 yr I bought this off Chris Anderton at Congleton all nighter I think. I paid £10 for it and Chris felt bad taking that much off me! Granted, it wasn't a minter but it played ok and was perfectly presentable. There are loads of these around and they come up for sale regularly. Another one of those cases where demand outstrips rarity.

Another one of those cases where demand outstrips rarity. yeah well i paid a grand for mine last year and there wasant many for sale then , and none under a grand , and the ones on flea bay didant sell for the price mentiond above or may be it did,but i know some that defo did not!!. i apear to be very unlucky these days as when am thinking of selling a record it drops in price like a stone acording to some and yet when am after one its worth fortunes , is it just me or what .but i do agree there seems to be a few turning up over the last year but then again there apears to be lots of things turning up , oh and the one on manships auction did a bit more than that i recall not to long ago
September 20, 200915 yr They are worth what people are prepared to pay for them and when the scene eventully dies, there be worth fook all

Granted, it wasn't a minter but it played ok and was perfectly presentable. There are loads of these around and they come up for sale regularly. Another one of those cases where demand outstrips rarity. Never a big money record back in the day, I sold mine for about a fiver. I think Dave Fergie (veep) sold his for less than that. Very much a case of demand outstrips rarity.

Except I'm talking about Dickie Wonder not Little Tommy See what happens to a girl when someone plays a punk/garage remix of Duffy out at a venue

See above post for reason why
September 20, 200915 yr Except I'm talking about Dickie Wonder not Little Tommy See what happens to a girl when someone plays a punk/garage remix of Duffy out at a venue Must have been a top night, Joan.
September 21, 200915 yr Great tune and does have its moments when a few seem to be up for sale then you dont see a copy for sale for months on end, got to be a hundred plus out there somewhere, About 2 month ago a minter went for £700 on Ebay then a copy goes for £1370 on JM then this copy for £1300ish last week, to me its a £800 tune if mintish
September 21, 200915 yr I'm with you Joan.... I keep on confusing these two records for some reason! thats cos of the Mr Wiggles connection and both on Sounds Of Soul (DW also on Golden Triangle too) maybe
September 21, 200915 yr but it does seem to crop up week in week out. i nearly bought it for £200 10 years ago. still regret it. hopefully it`ll keep turning up and i`ll buy one for £200 next year dave

September 22, 200915 yr thats cos of the Mr Wiggles connection and both on Sounds Of Soul (DW also on Golden Triangle too) maybe and they are both on the album FREE ANGELA on golden triangle with a different mix of BABY CANT YOU SEE listed as TYRONE THOMAS and a bit slower, but for about 100pounds its a good way to own it.
September 22, 200915 yr another one where ebay turned what used to be a real hard to get record into one being available every other week. Just check my old thread "de-rarified thru ebay". I remember when I bought mine from Virginia and the seller who had been in business for 30 years already told me rthat this was the first ever that he saw/found. Makes you wonder where all mint copies since then came from....
September 22, 200915 yr and they are both on the album FREE ANGELA on golden triangle with a different mix of BABY CANT YOU SEE listed as TYRONE THOMAS and a bit slower, but for about 100pounds its a good way to own it. To my ears same take, just slowed down a bit. And the Free Angela LP is more towards 30-40 quid IMO.
September 22, 200915 yr To my ears same take, just slowed down a bit. And the Free Angela LP is more towards 30-40 quid IMO. Its defo a slightly different take Benji as the words are different at a certain part of the record 3/4s way through i sold my mint copy for £100 beginning of the year and i know a few others have fetched that too
September 22, 200915 yr and they are both on the album FREE ANGELA on golden triangle with a different mix of BABY CANT YOU SEE listed as TYRONE THOMAS and a bit slower, but for about 100pounds its a good way to own it. it certainly is Pete
September 22, 200915 yr And the Free Angela LP is more towards 30-40 quid IMO. A little bit more, Benji : Free Angela

September 22, 200915 yr I stand corrected on both accounts then But, honestly, prices for the album are certainly It has always been around in quantities hasn't it? they are about and plenty of minters too Benji and yeah the price is high but 2 great indemand tunes on 1 album though, my opinion its hould be about £50/60
September 24, 200915 yr I had Sebastian Williams on SOS for a while, wish i had keep it now, the flip Hometown Boy is awesome....appears to be much rarer than Little Tommy. LT one of the best rhythm & soul records ever though imho Edited September 24, 200915 yr by mulf
September 25, 200915 yr Never a big money record back in the day, I sold mine for about a fiver. I think Dave Fergie (veep) sold his for less than that. Very much a case of demand outstrips rarity. Hi Dave, I used to love it & regularly clear the floor at Bank Hall etc early 80s....I will have probably "given it away" along with Penetrations on Teri De, Chico Lamarr on Fuller etc.....:-( Hope you are well David.
