Had these two for a number of years sitting on one of the shelves and just wondering if anyone knows anything about them....... The Uptowners - Such A Love - Captown CTN 4030 - I'm sure this is listed in one of the price guides, a really nice but little messy in places male group record that takes a couple of plays but has that something extra.....anyone know if it's been played anywhere?

The International Five - I Need You - Starway - ST-110 - This is a nice little record again not sure if it's been played out anywhere, not rare but another quality track, needs a few spins i think......comments and feedback welcome.

Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Hi Mark,

International five nice tune remember Mr Goucher (the man has taste) tipping this in a old LMR saying how records like this should be played as your walking into a club, or something like that anyway nice inexpensive groul sound,love the understated organ and cool group harmonies and on a nice yellow label if i remember.

Hi Andy, Yes nice yellow label mate, i've asked around on this and those who know it seem to rate it, needs a few plays and would i'm sure become a popular tune.......thanks for your comments.

"I Need You" is a decent pounding tune indeed. The flipside, "So In Love With You", is the better side in my opinion though. Not an easy 45 to find but seems quite unknown so still in the £25-£40 region price wise.

By the way, I have a very nice two-part instrumental by Skip August called "Shindig USA" on the TeeVee label. Skip wrote "I Need You". Wasn't there some Skip August 45s on Starway as well?

Hi Mark

Uptowners is listed in Mr Manships ROR so probably worth about million pounds

I'd say about £200

Totally agree Sebastian "SO IN LOVE WITH LOVE" is the side and the side i thought we were talking about on this thread must pay attention.

Me...lol not really DJ'ing that much at present, started playing it on the show on Sunday nights, thanks for all the feedback, i thought the Uptowners was a hard record to find and a couple of hundred quid in the bargain...nice one.

International Five is another version of LMNOP's on JB Productions but nowhere near as good.
