Guest James Trouble Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 (edited) Hi James, how many copies of the "known" Little John? I know of three. Keb's old one in not great condition, my old one (which used to be Mr Fortnum's) which is near mint and one that was recently for sale in Europe. Maybe someone can throw light on other copies? There are a few more Trent Sisters kicking about. The unseen Little John has to be the Northern Soul 'holy grail'? It's going to be a great record, how can it not be? But does it even exist any more?

boba Posted November 28, 2013 Share Posted November 28, 2013 i have a good group soul record on gogate, it has a nice sweet side and an okay midtempo side. group is called "True Nature". Although i'm sure someone has one, I don't know anyone who has one and it doesn't come up in discussions of the label. I'm sure the label was a total custom thing, probably none of the records are connected. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Perish the thought you might not actually like the record......or is the only thing that matters that it's a "classic" and a unique "rarity"? I am not having a dig btw - what you spend your money on is up to you - but if there are collectors that will speculate to that level on something they don't know, that adds a whole new dimension to "collecting". 7 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Was a piece of fun Steve :-) The point that someone would blind bid is one thing, but really I was equating the value (already) to the record as hyped even though unknown - I would be confident it won't sell for less than £ 2k without even knowing what it is yet ................. Otherwise it is unlikely to match the hype / promotion :-) Edited November 28, 2013 by RareMusicDirect Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I think there's a type of collector around these days, that if you asked what sort of music they liked they'd say 'rare', if they were being honest. Another type would say 'expensive'. Doesnt stuff sound better the more expensive it gets? It isnt of course, that's pretty much all in the mind. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
