  • I always thought we liked what we liked because they were a bit messy and not the polished item many pop records are? For me this is one of the best Northern Records ever! When you are off you

    I'm lost for words really, you guys slagging it off; you ever turned up a record as good as this?   Honestly if you were there when Butch first got this, and played it 3 times in his spot,

I actually both saw and heard said record on Saturday morning before transit to JM's .....It's a pretty tasty tune, but enough said.... :yes:  :wicked:

has to be a BIG trophy record then.....we all know what's up there in that league.......

Can someone just say what the bl**dy hell it is, instead of talking in initials!! If people know, they know, it's not as though anyone is going to get prosecuted for giving it away is it?!

 

I know, ask the US Government 'Prism' operators.... they're bound to know!

Interesting to see him auctioning a Freddie Scott - Mr Heartache, I've listed one three times now without so much of a sniff of a sale, so I shall now withdraw it, wait for the auction to end, and sell it at double what I was originally asking for it which will still be half the price it sells for at auction, and the buyer will be dead happy because he got it at half the auction price.

Strange strange world of northern soul...

It's obviously the Mello-Souls.

Or the Del-larks!

 

Looks like it`s been covered up again!

 

Been a monster tune-but here we go again with the frenzy factor.

It could be the Mello-Souls with a Del-Larks cover-up label on it :thumbsup:

I hope its a new genre as well.I'm tired of r'n'b,new funk,ns,cross'oer.(yorkshire xover).

mello souls

Pete,

I was sending you the money for that and a couple of others tomorrow !

That's pissed on me bonfire !

Just had a look and it says that he has never sold one before. I'm sure ive seen del larks go on there so you would think its the mello souls........Rob

Think some are missing the point.

 

The Mello Souls were covered up as the Del Larks.

 

Hence Uncle Ted`s reference MS or DL.

 

And my "covered up again" remark.

It is the Mello Souls believe me, the Supremes reference is because Shifty told his American contact that if he ever heard a record that sounded like the beginning of a certain Supremes track contact him straight away which is what he did and that was years ago not now just in case a few still don't get it :lol:

Just checked the sound clip for the sale item......

Stevie Wonder - For Once In My Life :D

Brilliant!

Might not be to you mate, but it sure is to plenty of others.............

It was a reference to the adjective alluring which to my mind has more feminine connotation..Sandy Golden is alluring..

 

Would describe Mello Souls as the dogs b....cks..masculine descriptor

Chalky if we form a consortium.....We can make it!

 

I don't hold much hope to be honest Steve :lol:

Lets all club together and buy it. Bagsy first fortnight?

Mind you John has Lee Rogers - Love & War on auction too and says:

 

and it’s by far the hardest NS record on the label

 

Think that one needs a re-write as "by far the hardest LEE ROGERS NS record on the label"  :yes:

 

Richard

mello or mellow its still to expensive for me :lol: for that price I would want a w

It's TOO not to

If the current number of page views for this topic were all individuals and they all chipped in £13.96 each, it'd be ours! Or at least ten grand towards it.

 

Viz referring to the lottery as being for the 'hopelessly optimistic', prevents me from ever owning such a disc.  :(

have you not read the posts its the MELLOW SOULS :lol:

i wouldnt turn my nose up at a m.souls,but inspirations would be the record for me.

Vinyl timeshare, its the future :thumbsup:

 

Can you imagine the arguments - given we can't even agree on soul music basics ? ...

 

It's my turn - no it''s my turn - but you played it last time - no you did - it's not fair ...  :lol::lol:

Mello Souls - grossly overrated

Wondered what you were  wanting for the money Ted..."w.." :ohmy: ...now I get it ..mellow not mello..der.. :glare:

So, assuming it isn't a mystery anymore and is Mello Souls, what do the panel think the finishing price will be?

 

Somewhere between Larry and Frank??

 

Ted, if you want to sell some of those battered to death, overplayed oldies you've had knocking about for years to fund a bid, let me know. I may even give you what you paid for some of them back in the 70's and 80's :thumbsup:

Between Larry and Frank? ... most probably.

 

However, let's not forget there were other recent items in-between those two as well:

 

Eddie Parker - £8.2K+

Counts - £8.5K+

Prophets - £9.9K+

 

All very rare and very good records (and, perhaps not surprisingly, the last three are all now residing in Japan I believe).

 

But personally I would rather have any of those five ahead of the Mello Souls.

 

It might well exceed the price for the Prophets; but then again, travesties happen all the time. Give me One Gold Piece any day of the week.

 

We Can Make It is not for me though, and as the Mello Souls might say, 'I Got My Pride' ...

good god i only just fell in.........DOH!!

 

ding ling ding ling ding ling..........set me free why dont you baby......i fucking knew i had heard that intro somewhere before

:rofl:

 

 

dazz

If it's really the Mello Souls, that would be the best record JM auctioned in the last 10 years ever. I predict well over 10K.
