"I MUST LOVE YOU"
b/w
"HIDING IN YOUR HEART"

Original US 45 by TIMOTHY WILSON - great '60s Northern soul floorfiller.  VG+ condition, glossy, plays great.

 

heres both with prices,although the original should be about

200 dollars or 120/130 pounds,its a great tune 72or73

i think.

 

ricky.

 

 

 

Thanks for the info.£120/130 seems a fair price for an original.Just a tough one to locate.

From memory doesn't the original have a raised capital X in the run out groove? (maybe it's the lazy capital S?)

 

I thought it was always one of those records in pre-internet times that's nigh on impossible to find (you can have 3 or 4 copies of his Veep gem for every Sky-Disc original at least) and have seen it sell in a venue for 350-400 quid for a tidy looking copy. Maybe in these "you can find anything on the web" days more copies have been turned up, but my guess is maybe folk think they're buying originals when they're not, and you cant take it as correct when looking through popske etc that just because the seller says "original" that they are correct because visually they look identical, and i've looked through lots of the photos on popsike and non of the ones I looked at (which all fetched decent money)appear to have the raised capital letter, which imho makes them "second issues" at best, outright boots at worst?

 

Or is it that this 45 is no longer fashionable? or all that well known with the younger "I started in the later 80's crowd", and hence suffering 'triple dip recession/you can buy any non current floorfiller for 25% of what it was at it's peak' ?

 

Or perhaps it's just some of us old farts fought long and hard to get one into our collections and don't care how much guide books say 'cause we ain't gonna sell it at any price ;-)

(if nobody else confirms which raised capital letter it is I'll go digging over the weekend)

John, Mine's got a raised capital in the matrix stamp. It's a definite original. I've had the boot before and it's on vinyl but it's a shit recording and very low in the mix with no bass, awful sound. I've never seen a boot or repro that is on styrene. You're right though, it's certainly not a 45 I'd sell. I don't buy a lot of northern as such, but this is one of my all time fav 45's. I also reckon that this has got to be a £300 record at least.

Styrene,stick on label.? Great posts John and Jordi,wouldn't at all be suprised at £300.

just not fashionable record but it s great one

just not fashionable record but it s great one

 

Probably on me own here then, can't stand it.

To me it's one of the most uplifting, joyful, feelgood tunes ever, brilliantly sung with a wonderful backing track. And it's a great dancer.

dito.

 

NB. anyone got a copy for sale?

 

NB 2: just played the flip side "hiding in your heart" on youtube. Verrrrrry nice midtempo!

Wonder who that is then

Portable Dance floor Hire,

big Barry,macers,and the rest of those mods could have done

with one in Laverty's upstairs 83/84,would have saved the carpet.

 

ricky.

I have this and in excellent condition, only writing on label.  Styrene original. Any idea of value,  currently. Thanks!

I need to check mine with this info, thanks.  I have several records which I bought back in the day when I just liked a tune or not, and before I cared about all of this which may or may not be original malarkyl!

 

Cheers,

Mark

I just missed out on a copy that came up for sale in the States on Discogs last year, I think it was up for around £145 but was gone time I logged on.  

orig must be 300...... and still not back in fashion

Dave- I have to say....it's 400. 

Really scarce back in 1974 never mind now. Not sure folks realise how hard it is to find. I know the label owner Randy Irwin and he told me it bombed in the early 70's. Something tells me it's a 1971/72 release not 60's. 

Just my considered opinion of course price wise 😀

It should be 400 on rarity kev... And i agree its a turn of the 70s record and not 60s... One i always liked
