Guest Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 I got a feeling that of the back of the recent soulboy movie etc there is sudden influx of interest in the scene maybe this new breed have not got the knowledge yet when it comes to record buying hence some of the crazy bidding seen recently on ebay Kieran Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest marco Posted December 8, 2010 Share Posted December 8, 2010 I got a feeling that of the back of the recent soulboy movie etc there is sudden influx of interest in the scene Kieran Why do I find this hard to believe? Anyone? I'd say a more likely explanation is just an equation of supply, demand and the quality of the records in question. If you're not that bothered about owning/playing originals then even £50 to have a playable 45 of one of the greatest bits of music ever committed to vinyl might not seem so crazy...

I got one of those (the first boot) off Ebay for £26 two sundays ago. To keep I mean. All depends on the timing and who's actually buying at the time I suppose.

I guess, if you can be bothered to find a decent MP3 and not bothered about label design etc. and then even the boots are of some historical interest themselves nowadays I suppose Pete Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Keithw Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 probably not in the same vein but i always liked the patience valentine--you cant tell the good guys from the bad - real soul because it was pressed with the c/u title presume because it wasnt known at time that it was edie walker--still kept it to this day Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
