Oh how could I forget, all my Womack stuff and just had my memory jogged on other thread, Debbie Taylor "Just Don,t Pay"/ "I Don,t wanna leave you"

Todd Rundgren. Excellent choice Pete. It does'nt always have to be Soul!

Think people are just bored of me answering that every time mate but if I had to choose one record in the world, it would be that one.

Well I always said Barbara Mason but that went a couple of years ago.

I would say my Detroit Spinners collection as it isn't worth owt so will never have to get rid of it :-)

The white SOUL demos, and as I said in another thread once for personal reasons Gil Scott heron and Brian Jackson - Winter in America (Lp odd that it doesn't have the track Winter in America on it) You can bury me / burn me with that one. As to when, hopefully a week before you to get better prices, but probabaly too late to of interest ot anyone.

Soul Incorporated - My Proposal & The Majestics - I lover Her So Much... & Johnny Davis You Got To Crawl To Me

Would have to keep two for my funeral

I'll Always Love You - Detroit Spinners and I'm Gonna Miss You - Artistics

So if I had to sell the last one before them it would be Harry Hippie - Bobby Womack, favourite record by favourite artist.

it aint that rare the red and white stateside demos are as rare and as far as i know there certainly aint no London issues cause if there were you would not be able to shut Mick Smith up :lol: unless someone knows diffeent and can post a scan

Sold many over the years and even more in recent years still got a few tucked away but at a push I would have to Say Tiger Feet - Mud

Phew. I'm glad my viewpoint has changed over the years because the intense collecting thing is every bit as addictive as any other drug. I still require a physical format on the vast majority of my collection but I'm less bothered about 'trophy' items these days. Over the years I've flogged multiple collections and sold records that I thought I'd keep forever simply because, in many cases, they'd be going to a better home - a home that would lovingly caress and admire the sheer beauty of an original copy of an iconic record and spread the word to fellow enthusiasts. In other words, they'd worship the record much more than me, 'cos I've always had 1000's of records on my shelf but seldom the time to appreciate 'em the same way I did in the early 70's. So it's BETTER that key records get passed on to the right people rather than stay buried on the shelves of someone like me.

Plus my collecting these days goes in sporadic bursts depending on my circumstances at any given time. My collection is pretty fluid and works organically and surprisingly it never seems to diminish in size much. Also I'm seeing that there's a natural progression in people's tastes which is now quite happily accepting wider styles from different eras, which is par for the course 'cos records from the 70's that were dormant and available for 20 years eventually found an audience 20 or 30 years later and now it's increasing happening with 80's recordings.

But I digress. I'll keep my 3rd original Red Coach copy of the Carstairs (the other two got worn out) and my Inferno 12" of the Tom Moulton remix 'cos it's just such a key record for me in a multitude of ways.

If I decide to sell up??? It would have to be the 1st record I bought back in 1973......... Bob Relf - Blowing My Mind To Pieces........ purely for sentimental reasons....:lol:

When the time comes to sell i'd sell the more expensive things first and end up with a collection of cheap records that I probably wouldn't be able to sell.

but hopefully they would owe me nothing by this point.

Last record I would sell would be my stock copy of Darrell Banks Open the door on London UK

and then you woke up...

The records that people have given me. I would never ever sell them so I guess I will always have some records.

yes, good call Joan

"Intimate storm" - Shirley Brown LP if only to be able to hear "This love" for the last time.

Sod it, this is impossible, just remembered Soul Children "Whats Happening" and Harold Melvin LP with "I miss you" , "Be for real", Ebony woman", "Yesterday I had the blues" "Let me into your world" etc. I have come to the conclusion that somethings just cannot be allowed to happen.
