Hi all please bear with me as i'm fairly new to this, i have enjoyed northern since a kid and recently started to look at buying some stuff not the megga rare stuff yet !!. Can anyone tell me what the 70's (boot, reissue)  of detroit soul - all of my life music town is valued at.  Many thanks

Nobody in authority seems to want to respond to you so I'll have a go. I would have said a tenner at the most. I bet you'd pick one up for a few quid somewhere.

Nice tune to start off with mate. Good luck.

Heres one for a tenner.

This is a re-issue if you are not bothered.

Not sure what you'd have to pay for an original Music Town, 70 or 80 maybe?

Funny thing is, the boot is probably rarer than the original.

I have the lookalike boot, hard to tell from the original and I actually got offered £50 for it a few years back!! Good sound quality too.

It's such an in-demand track, always has been and always will be.

 

Original has got to £100+

Cracking tune. With a name like Detroit Soul, and a sound like that, who'd have guessed they're a white group. (That's not racist is it?)

I would hope not but you never know these days

Thanks for the responses. I know the modern boot is worth about £10 i am trying to tie down the value of the 70's boot that can go for anything between £40 to £80  (ha so there's the value then) the original seems to go for around £250 to £300 . But it certainly is mad that the boots can go for such a high value in fact i have seen the out of the past boot of mel williams-can it be me go for more that the 1966 modern label release. So i have put a post up and answered me own question pfffff the value is down to what people will pay

The 70's boot - £20 to £30.  Anyone paying more knows sod all about records.

The original is worth £100 - £125

 

The 70's boot is worth £20

 

That's based on NM condition
