Guest Antony Meijer Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 This maybe a futile attempt but here goes: i'm looking to trade a lovely copy of Fluorescent Smogg's - All My Life on WG for an equally lovely copy of Sag War Fare's - Don't be Jive on Libra. ???

Anais nin Carms Posted February 11, 2012 Share Posted February 11, 2012 Hi Antony You being from Antwerp ...you might like R&B ?, as many do over there , excuse my ignorance if not . I have got shit loads of R&B a whole box which I would swap your FS if you are interested plus it would come to the best of homes and I would polish and smile at it every day and it would save me spending all that money so I could feed my 8 starving children. Come on folks you can't blame me for trying..... Well it worked to get me Larry Laster from that lovely American chap Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I thought you had a sag war fare and wanted a F .smogg Don't think I could swap even if I was lucky to own a sag war fare Good luck with this and please don't take Carms post too seriously ,she's really a nice lady with a sense of humour Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

But the FS is my spare so i feel a bit greedy holding on to two of those. I just want Carmen to know (and never forget) that she almost scored my FS and then ruined it by running her mouth!.

I had it shipped to Miami.

Dave Thorley Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Here's my little addition, spoke to the daughter of the guy behind the record. He died a long time ago, his wife continued to live in the house for many years after, when she died the house was cleared and sold and anything to do with her fathers music business was thrown in a dumpster. I asked if she knew any of the other people involved in the group or if there were any other family members around that still might have a copy of the records, the reply was no. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I used to buy off John there,was always interested in the `special` sales box lol. looks like there may have been 2 copies at Victoria unless John got it in a trade?

Steve G Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) I am sure there was only the one Wayne. I'd have questioned him about it if there were two copies in the same box.

Hammersoul Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Sorry Steve, the one I was Talking about came fom Mike of St Albans. I can't remember if he actually had the record with him or knew where he could get hold of a copy.I just blanked it cos of artist. Name , kinda had more important things on me mind at time( see previous post with Nev) . Fair play you got this and F: Smog. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Steve G Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 (edited) Mike from St Albans? He wouldn't have known it Wayne, no way.

NEV Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I still find it hard to believe anyone would pay $300 let alone £300 for a copy of sag war fare in 1978 ? I recall just recent post by Mark Dobson regarding the William Cummings 45 ,being so cheap cos it wasn't the right tune back in the mid 70's ? You must have had a very good job or crazy with money to spend that much on a tune that unless I'm mistaken wasn't en vogue until after 2000 at the earliest ??
