It's out of the Carolinas and was discovered by Jason Perlmutter some years back and comped on Jazzman Carolina Funk about 3 years ago.

Value seems to have wide range... I'd say it's worth 400quid but it's got a lot of hype from some soulies who would say double that.

Gone for £1k recently

Yeah but that's the hyped value, it wont be worth that in a year.

Hope you're right, i'd have one for £400 odd

If your friend want to sell it I's say this is a pretty good time to do so

Hang on to it for a year or so.

Paul S played this at Move On last night....f**king brilliant

Yes £700 to £1000 is about right. Sams saying £400 cos shes after one. BUT, she isnt going to find one for that. So hang on to it. Its getting bigger and bigger.

No I'm not, that's what mine cost out of the states 3 weeks ago

The price will fall within the soul scene where it's fetching the hype price because it's in fashion (like Leroy Clofer a few years back) and at the end of the day it's a funk record so it has a shelf life.

Hi Sam

You have a knack of finding em for less ....maybe because you have some good contacts in the good ol' Us of A but that is not a true reflection of price is it:wicked:

Think Paul's price is probably a fair reflection at this present moment ,but having said that i bet there are just as many of the Wally Coco's kicking about the states ,as there are Clay Brown's on the label .

Time will tell eh??

p.s Will be at Manchester on the 30th so hopefully get to chat with you if your going to Stevie's do:wave:

Lets hope theres as many of the other Clay Browns as well. Or maybe a shock horror Prix like find of the label?!

Stuff like Leroy Clofer and that James Munroe seem to have lost their value slightly now? Be interesting if the same happens to Wally C but it certainly appears to be a lot rarer at present....
