I'm never ceased to be amazed on what people will bid on.

Introduction missing and cracked.

wouldnt surprise me if it makes $1000

I'd have it for $10, but wouldn't bid more than that for what is essentially a useless piece of plastic.

Somebody will buy and DJ with it no doubt.......

Perhaps the bidder has the missing piece at home!

Could have done it before with much difficulty, but this wouldn't be too hard to fix if my friend lets me use his 3d printer and he did the CAD stuff. Obviously it wouldn't play music over that spot but you could actually play the intro and it would be like running over a heat damaged part of the record or something similar.

Would it be Original Vinyl still?

Remember earlier in the year a copy of Ray Agee 'I'm losing again' going for over £500 with a bite out of it and this didn't play for the first 10 rotations! whatever makes people happy!

Don't fix it ffs. The fewer copies of this around the better  

80% of it still plays what more do you want?

Be a great piece of wall art.

you,d have to fix it with a piece of 60's vinyl....not styrene mind!! vinyl......gotta agree with joan though.....it,s nasty!!

Imagine when Brad found that one ... heart racing as he recognised the label - the overwhelming excitement of finding a mega rarity ... only to be followed by the devastating crash of disappointment when he found there was a chunk missing out of the vinyl

i love that it says "looks VG"

oh come on FFS, surely it should just read Bin Fodder

Apparently there is a solution you can buy now that has the capability to regenerate and restore old vinyl ..

Its based on the "Mouse's ear regeneration theory "

You place the record in the soloution for a period of time and the solution miraculously starts to bond with the vinyl and fills in the gap !

Only problem is it takes time and looking at that chunk missing ,it will probs take about 10 yrs ...

Which gives the rest of us enough time and respite from having to ever hear it played out

As the old saying goes ... "Love find's a way "

"And the next one on the decks needs no introduction....."

Which is just as well really.

Bin it.

Glad you like it love I'll take that out of your Christmas stocking and stick another Orange in instead!! :lol:

Shute! The intro is the best part of the whole darn thing! She sure as heck can't sing......If they had X Factor back then she'd be one of those gals on the warm up audition show for sure....

I'd be embarrassed to own the record with a chunk out of it but as for the actual track, surprised at the dislike for it, just sounds like a belting 60's Popcorn Wylie special to me, and her voice isn't that bad...

her voice isn't that bad...

Pete, you obviously haven't heard it played at a dance. Her voice is that awful your head explodes if you hear either side twice within 30 minutes. backing is great tho.

Glad you like it love I'll take that out of your Christmas stocking and stick another Orange in instead!! :lol:

I'd say it's pants but it's not even that good

I have heard it played out by Mick & Sam and I'd have to say it's brilliant.

One of those records that divides opinion.

I think a record that people love to say they hate

I quite like it - but I think the tune is a bit obvious, a bit clichéd.

Cheers

Richard

I thought this was a manufactured tune when i first heard it.On one of the recordings from a while back,on the intro,if you turned it up really loud,there's a dj type "Oh Baby" can be heard.

Anyway,its one that grew on me,and i think the frailty in her voice adds to the production.After all there loads of NS tunes where the singer can't "sing".........7/10.

Sounds like Cilla Black

What's up with Cilla Black like

Cilla Says...

Cilla Black is a woman with more catch phrases than Tommy Cooper. Not only are her words memorable but her dulcet tones (?), 'interesting' pronunciation and addition of letters invisible to the normal eye make her one of Britain's best known voices.

Cilla's Top Five Catchphrases:

1. "And here’s our Graham with a quick reminder."
   
   
   
2. "Surprise, surprise it's Cilla here."
   
   
   
3. "What’s your name and where d’ya come from?"
   
   
   
4. "Lorra lorra laughs"
   
   
   
5. "Do I need to buy a new hat?"

She did a few covers: "Yo Yo", "Everything I touch Turns To Tears", "Stranger In My Arms"....

I made the last one up...

well, surprise surprise!

Fraid not mate. I know of about 5 versions of that song including Cilla's, and only Barry St John's version is uptempo, the others are all midtempo. Weird.

see how we've managed to navigate away from the subject topic?

Cilla had a big singing career unlike Margaret Little

" anyone who had a heart " is memorable but ffs come on " Alfie " was feckin mind blowing !

Ermmm ... it was you who asked

over 300 $ already ffs

Mr Pinches could be right :yes:

over 300 $ already ffs

Ridiculous!

We're all having a Xmas whip round ,to get it so we can smash it

I'm just so fooking pleased window cilla never worked with popcorn tho.

People can knock it all they like but it rams every dance floor everywhere. It's not soulful, the lyrics might not be great, her voice might not be great but it is a great northern dancer.

$610 now

$610 now

Unreal - the record is unplayable in any meaningful sense - whoever pays a shed-load of money for it and then plays it out is surely going to get the mickey taken out of them?

A dreadful song in a dreadful condition,personally I think the skips the best place for it. Chris

Anyone bidding on this either hasn't clocked the edge chip or needs their head examined.

Option 1) Hasn't clocked the edge chip = No

Option 2) Needs their head examined = Yes

could be the case that some dj will play the boot, then when someone comes up to the decks to check it out, the said dj will pull the original

copy out of his 1000 x 45 record coffin to show off his prized possession still in its cardboard sleeve( and off course he will explain that hes had his copy for years before it went big and paid 0.99cents) then the next thing you know his cred goes from 1 to 10 lol unless off course you think the record is crap??

actually sounds quite a good plan, must put a bid in....lol

happy soulin

It is a manufactured record, done as a favour for a friend of Popcorn's his barber's wife or, something, there was a thread about this.....

I've got a couple of broken 45's I might stick on at this rate!
