£2 each on the pop/general soul releases

pick out the decent Northern and keep them.

You should get a decent amount for the Ace Kefford Stand 45

hi blake

wont be selling like that mate

had two stints at collecting this lot once when i was at school asking all the kids if their mums and dads had any old labels that were red and had atlantic on them...

got upto about 150 of them and sold them all in a fit of rage to rudzi once,,,took em all over in a old kellogs cornflakes box..(not the packet)

then about 7 yrs ago got really pisssed of with northern etc and started to collect these with a vengeance and only missing a handful

some of the hardest to pick up were the bobby darins who had 12 releases on the label,art freeman. vala regan and barbara lewis i picked up quite easy

the elusive one however is wilson picketts- that kind of love - 584173 never seen it rumoured not to exist but is in all the discographies...

ref mike williams - lonely soldier cant see why people like this one tho...

best surprise for me was 'soul surviviors - mama soul' which i immediately started playing about 3 yrs ago - remembering janine asking what that 60s pop thing was u played but now it started to creep up in price and getting noticed on ebay

shouldnt be too hard to pick up..

hey thats gr8 ,,had a feeling it would (wanna sell?)

i think with some of the Atlantic s they are just a bit obscure rather than rare.

Bobby Darin-s - the lady came from baltimore took me ages to find ..and billy jo royale - downby the boondocks -584002 both crap records by the way.

584200 is the original version of mr bojangles by jerry jeff williams a real nice tune and rare

also there some real one offs interms of 'why would you wanna go into a studio and record that?' like pig snoots and theme from rosemarys baby

but it was a very enjoyable couple of year s collecting these 45s

no offence mark but what do you get out of collecting records that are crap? i don't understand this type of collecting at all. as i say, not being funny...but why???

hi dan

no offence taken mate

as a collector mate u tend to try and complete on occasion certain labels,,done it with grapevine,casino classics ,black magic ,destiny etc etc

theres always one or too that tend to be more elusive and the chase if often more exiting than obtaining the 45s..

took me ages to the funkees on black magic ,and jason knight on casino classics and the same as i explained about the atlantic 45s

but then when u get the records out and see you've got the complete run on a label ie atlantic 584001 - 100

its a nice feeling,cant explain it really - its justa feeling

anyone else like this or is it just me?

Sorry the Wilson Pickett isn't for sale.

Just be careful if collecting UK Mowest, Prodigal and Rare Earth for their Motown links. So much is complete garbage!

each to his own and all that, can't knock it.

can certainly understand collecting every soul record on a label as i try to do that with a few.

but it just seems to me that every non-soul record, particularly the crap ones, is taking up space, time and money you could use elsewhere.

mind you, to outsiders we're probably all mad...it's just a question of degrees

I can understand it. I've never felt this way about 45s, usually only buy what i like there, but i have collected Daredevil marvel comics almost to completion, then stupidly sold all the earliest 60s ones to buy a new PC.

In my experience mate selling collections is never a good idea, as you say yourself i think you have to consider how you'll feel a few years down the line and if you'll just end up collecting them agaian. We've already discussed this mate and you know what i think about selling up so i'll say no more.

All the best

Matt

Just played the Wilson Pickett 45 mentioned earlier and there's quite a noticeable drop in volume about a third of the way through. Maybe this fault caused the 45 to not actually make the shops.

The above is a nice uptempo track whilst the flip is great Deep!
