:hatsoff2: Hi All......The white DEMO is the one to have & rarest, the shooting star label is very nice, then the blue label, however there are bootlegs of the blue label, :wink: DAVE K

Dark blue speckled for me.

Is the star copys styrene? I have a styrene I Can Take Care Of My Self.

   The star copy is vinyl ( at least mine is).

in my experience the blue non-starred is rarest. i don't know if it is most valuable or "desirable" though.

Around 10 years ago me and 2 mates were driving south side of Chicargo when we saw a open trailer full of records We stopped and enquired at the church charity shop next door They let us search through the trailer which was about a third full of 45s and 33s The only decent item we came away with was a demo of Nolan Chance So my vote goes to the demo

I don't think I've sever seen one in styrene :huh:

Is this one of those records that are 'of a time', as in 'you had to have been there'? I'm not meaning this post to be one of those 'sh*t record' comments by any means, as they serve no purpose, that's not what I mean. I genuinely don't think much to it, not even Butch's one. I'm not knocking the record for the sake of it, I just wondered is it just me? If so, I really am 'the odd one out'

 

All the best,

Hi mate,

 

My point is, that I'm actually wondering if my taste is 'unique' :D I was having a 'discussion' with Pete S about 'Romona Collins - You've Been Cheating' - I absolutely love it - he don't, and with ref this record, I get the impression that everyone (except me) absolutely loves it. I'm aware that people's different histories influence their taste, and can relate to people around the time this was first played loved it then, so obviously love it now - especially with their memories attached.

 

Does that make sense?

 

All the best,

 

Len :thumbsup:

I've still never heard Butch's test pressing version........

Ramona Collins a top sound. IMO

I have never really thought much about this record - maybe the title puts me off?

 

However, whenever I actually hear it, it does sound great  :D

Not a critic of Nolan Chance which is brilliant anyway, just commenting I also like Ramona Collins aswell Chees John

 Its not even a rare record on any of the constellation copies ...just always sells for too much

Vocally far far better for me.

Is there not a yellow issue as well?

 

I think it's generally assumed to be a mock up  ????

It's one of those records where you can have a sort of lazy, laid back, dance to - almost a cocky sort of walk type thing. If you know what I mean.

 

I like it.

Great Northern Soul classic from the golden era, I think all the label variations look desirable if they are in mint condition!

I have "If he makes you" on yellow Constellation, so I guess it could have come out, there are quite a few releases in yellow, especially Gene Chandler.

:hatsoff2: HI ALL....Is the BUNKY copy your own? if so is it foe sale? I forgot how similar it was with the CONSTALATION DEMO :ohmy: DAVE K

Bunky is rarest "issue" by miles, £3K plus if memory serves me right

But it's a reissue isn't it, came after all the others  :wicked:   did it not meet its reserve, something like £2400 final price, not the interest in it the seller thought?

Ask Mr Manship, he knows. He says it is the rarest issue, I am a mere mortal in these matters. Don't think it is re-issue, just one a few pressed at the same time as a Bunky Pick?

Why do I need to ask John?  I know what John thinks, talked to him about it when he auction it.  It is obviously the rarest of the Nolan Chance releases, anyone knows that.  Pretty sure the Bunky release was done from the same stampers as the constellation release afterwards for some self promotion, maybe to get a release overseas?  I can't find the topic started by guy who found one in Aus.

What detirmines a "rare record" ?

 

They are all rare in the grand scheme of things just some are rarer than others.  I agree with Nev for the amount of copies about and what you see for sale on a regular basis it should sell for half what it does.  It's a classic though so will always sell.

I always liked the 70s LP track version that John Vincent used to spin at the end of the 70's/early 80's and whose name has completely escaped now that I'm typing!

According to Ady in a previous topic he sold his "Bunky" one to JV.  Wasn't there also an acetate by supposedly Ritchie Parker, not very good if I remember rightly, have it on a disc somewhere.

QUANTITY ... Not the sound  :)

 

    Maybe not as common as Belita Woods or Ann Sexton in terms of quantity ,but just like those two ,it is a great song that most people love ,so when it turns up on any sales page ,it usually shifts ... although i am still baffled as to why the Ann Sexton still fetches $100+ in any condition ,surely most collectors would have it by now  :g:
