Premium Stuff Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 The JM tease has changed to: The world’s RAREST Northern Soul Classic ORIGINAL! That rather changes the direction of play then.... Suggests this is something that is available somehow but not as an original and official vinyl release (maybe just on tape, as an acetate or a bootleg). Something like "Sweet Sherry" on a 45 (but then I have been told there is an original US vinyl 45 of this, so maybe that's not the best example).

Mickjay33 Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 it might be an unplayed copy of the snake??????? now that has got to be rare 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jim G Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 It might be something less obvious like A stock copy of Chubby Checker "You Just Don't Know" USA Parkway Just guessing, don't shoot me! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest wigan bob Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Sorry but I mark Chalky right on this. Plenty of records never got beyond demo on major labels.

Speedlimit Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 ok it suggests a double sided classic oldie that wa either thought not to exist or acetate only so how about EDDIE HOLMAN " WHERE IM NOT WANTED C/W HURT on either Parkway or Harthon Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jim G Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 And JM states he has it in hands " at long last" which suggests it is something not even he has seen, sold or held before, which might rule out some of our suggestions? Anyway back to my earlier question, when is he revealing it ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Quinvy Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 Who bloody cares? Just like all the times before there will be cries of "uh, is that all. Common as f**k" And Stuart Bennet swears blind that he had a Chubby Checker - Just Don't Know on the orange and yellow issue. Reckons Guy Hennigan had it off him in the 80's. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I don't care, as I'd never be able to join in the auction, though it is intriguing. But nearly 3000 views, howzabout that for free publicity? 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Paul Posted November 22, 2013 Share Posted November 22, 2013 The tease for 2013 is: The world’s RAREST Northern Soul Record will feature HERE to end 18th. December in time for your best Christmas ever! The suspense of holding this 45 is killing me Dear Santa, I was starting to think my life was dull and had no purpose but now that something truly exciting is on the horizon I feel there is so much to live for that I'm starting to feel young again and there's only 26 more days and nights to go before the day of blissful enlightenment but of course it would be an almighty tragedy if the world came to a sudden end and we all went to our lonely graves in complete ignorance of what this mystical holy grail thing was all about and we could never truly rest in peace because of the burning frustration and we would feel so empty and unfulfilled that our sad lives had all been for nothing and then to make things EVEN WORSE we found out that we couldn't even claim refunds because we'd lost our receipts and we knew damn well that we should have kept them in a safe place but we probably threw them in the bin by mistake...

Guest sharmo 1 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I've got a feeling we're going to be let down by this in the end , something stunningly rare but not brilliant , just like the Weather on bunky for instance legendary and almost impossibly rare but what can you do with that , that you can't do with the issue of it. It's gonna be a cracker but I've got a feeling about this .O.K. balls on the chopping block I don't think it's Sandy Golden. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 If a record already exists in another original format, issue or demo, how can it be the rarest northern soul record? If it's the rarest Northern Soul record it has to be a one off, maybe one other known or exist on an acetate. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
