boba Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 ive had a fairly rare one on vip,oma heard-mr lonely heart-vip,not a bad little tune. this is one of the records that people used to think was ultra-rare until ebay came along. bob miner still thinks it's really rare and deosn't believe how many copies i've seen for sale.

Dobber Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 thats right boba,when i first got it about 7 yrs ago for about 70 quid i thought id hit jackpot,but since then ive seen quite a few copies,always around the 100 quid mark,the oma heard is a good tune,just a tad bit slow,sounds better speeded up a notch. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 The Oma Heard is on one of the Complete Motown Singles Cd releases. Just been reading a review of this by Pete Lawson in one of his mags. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Motown Junkies Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 (edited) It's on Volume 4 (1964); it's actually listed as a B-side to bizarre Please Please Me retread "Lifetime Man". I got up to September '64 and reviewed both sides this April just gone: https://motownjunkies.co.uk/470/ Lifetime Man https://motownjunkies.co.uk/471/ Mr Lonely Heart Edited July 22, 2012 by Motown Junkies Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted July 22, 2012 Share Posted July 22, 2012 Thank you very much! That would be me. Well am still none the wiser but well done with the site. I added a little comment about there being a second mix of Jimmy Ruffin on MIracle. Thats probably the only thing I know that wasn't on the site 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Marc Forrest Posted July 23, 2012 Share Posted July 23, 2012 this is one of the records that people used to think was ultra-rare until ebay came along. bob miner still thinks it's really rare and deosn't believe how many copies i've seen for sale. thats right, me too. remember buying this at a very high price via a uk source end of the nineties, ended up trading it with someone only to replace it some five to ten years ago via ebay for indeed a quite low price. also tamla 101 and 102 seemed to be very very scarce before ebay. seen a couple of these too. seldomly in very good nick though!

I,m pretty sure Funny way now resides with Carl & Maria and is actually the velvelettes not the Aandantes, not sure of history etc but sure Pete Lowrie from Carlisle had summit to do with it !

As an aside Ty told us his father's best friend was Jimmy Soul Clarke, sadly he apparently had a serious habit that eventually killed him.
