Does any kind person out there currently possess a good condition copy of the Lucifer album on Invictus 7309 and, if so, would they consider lending it out for a few days for a copy of the forthcoming box set - 'Holland-Dozier-Holland: The Complete 45s Collection'?

 

Please PM if you can help.

 

Many thanks,

Yep. I had it at one time but I don't recall it being up my street at all. Typically, now I need one!

It 's deffo up everyone's street if it has the 45 I have championed for the last 2 years ' Don't You '  - Everytime I spin this people come and ask who and what  it is - jazzy , moody left field it's got all the right ingredients.

yes glyn it is on the lp

I heard the song "don't you..." on the radio in Cleveland back when it came out. I think it was played on the Canadian/Detroit station CKLW probably for Canadian Content (Cancon) rules! It was a pretty unique sounding record then. I also have the LP, it probably didn't sell crap and is rarer than "Osmium" but there's no demand for it.

There ' s a demand for the 45 - not an easy find , and now soaring in price.

How much does it sell for these days?

Would have thought in the £25/ 40 region.....waits for all the members on this forum to chip in and say blah blah it 's only xx  - well go find one - only found one in last 3 years ... ...it's not around in any quantity - try finding one

Invictus pressed most releases at five different plants. You can't do that in small quantity. But since Lucifer 45s are known to be priced low there's probably boxes of these in someones basement waiting for the prices to rise.

I believe I have the album Ian what do you want to know?

I'm happy to help if I can. I know the artist fairly well....Eugene Smith. He went on to do some really nice stuff with another band of his :The Warm Up Band. Here's a sample. I'll text him if you want. He lives on Vancouver Island now. 

 

Here tis . . .
