February 17, 201213 yr which came first, the earnest or the king? his first 45 was actually ernie king on mercury. He still played blues around Chicago until he died a few years ago.
February 17, 201213 yr i was thinking more of the track "you're gonna miss me" in particular did the sonic release come first?
February 17, 201213 yr i was thinking more of the track "you're gonna miss me" in particular did the sonic release come first? Yes. The release on the LK label is in stereo and is from 1976 and has also got a different flipside.
February 17, 201213 yr any ideas value wise, seem to be all over the place on popsike the producer was selling copies on ebay a few years ago most were about 150GBP
February 17, 201213 yr the producer was selling copies on ebay a few years ago most were about 150GBP I don't think it was the producer selling copies. What was their user ID?
February 17, 201213 yr i thought £100/£150 seemed about right Think youd pay more than that for the sonic one' more like £250/£300
February 17, 201213 yr I don't think it was the producer selling copies. What was their user ID? sorry I can't remember his ID he also had other things on the label.
February 17, 201213 yr Is this the same chappie as King Ernest (without the 'a') on Barry? I think so but I'm not sure. He did have a few more records though, he had a nice funk 45 and another 45 which i haven't heard because butch outbids me on it every time it comes up for sale.

February 18, 201213 yr Bob, do you have this 45? the issue is very rare. I have a red stock copy. Maybe 7-8 years ago a Chicago dealer got a copy and (I felt) he was gouging me at $40 so I bought one off gemm for cheaper instead of him. There were a few on gemm at that time. Now that people are looking for it there's obviously not copies on gemm.
February 18, 201213 yr I think so but I'm not sure. He did have a few more records though, he had a nice funk 45 and another 45 which i haven't heard because butch outbids me on it every time it comes up for sale. DOH!
