A promo of "Pushing a Good Thing Too Far" by Sandy Williams sold for  $150 in the Facebook Rare Soul Sales group. My question is this...is there any sort of demand for this record? I have it, don't like it, and want to throw it in with a batch I have for trading. Thanks in advance for any input.

 

Best,

 

Mark

I'd say the 45 has fans on the NS scene ............

 

I love it, and play it out from time to time - I'd say there would be some demand for it.

 

......but what do I know?  

 

All the best,

I remember it first from Dave Evison playing it when I was a lad.

John Manship auctioned one a few months ago.

Not bad but there's better versions..

Yes there is, but this is the 'different' version, and that's all that matters

P.s - It's not R 'n' B

AGREED

I think it's a very nice record. One I remember from a particular time and place as a youth which makes it better.

 

Incidentally, just checked Manship's Guide and that rates this record at £150.

I do love Sandy Williams, but have to say Barbara Lewis is my fave.

 

I guess most are of that opinion.

 

All the best,

I love it and I'd play it out if I were dj'ing. Best version as well IMHO.

Sold mine last year

Did I make an arse of myself again?

I rate SW @ 100 in EX/M-. So 50 for a VG+ is fair.

I do love Sandy Williams, but have to say Barbara Lewis is my fave.

 

I guess most are of that opinion.

 

All the best,

Yeah, Barbara Lewis for me too
