Thought it would be a good idea to post scans, pics, or just name the records that dropped through the letterbox or you have bought somewhere.

I thought it would be good idea to see what we are all buying - it doesn't matter f it is £1 or £cost a fortune, just post it here so we can all see what we managed to get and may a few words on why we bought it?

Moderaters can advise if it is a good thread or not.

I will get the ball rolling with two that came today (Scans below)

1. Young Holt Limited "California Montage" Brunswick USA DEMO - well chuffed, have a stocker, but wanted the demo!

2. Gloria Jones "Tainted Love" USA Champion - label is knackered, vinyl plays great and is in VG++ condition. I bought as I cannot afford a Minty one so got this one for £20 so I can play on original vinyl in my soul do at my house!

Most copies go for about $250-300. I waited it out and grabbed this copy for much less but they do not turn up very often. It avilible as an album cut for much less on the Bayclay comp "Danses A Gogo"

Hi Garry

 

Hope yer well mate.

 

The Hurt So Bad is the record which got me going on the Delfonics. It is acrually available on an obscure Jamaican 45 release - I don't have one but would like one. I started a thread on it last week - here it is

 

Quite interesting.

 

Cheers
