it's hilarious to me reading threads like this where the actual record is not specified, i'm like "i have no idea which one you're talking about", but somehow everyone else does so i'm in another world on this message board. like if someone starts a thread "price for gene chandler?" this is not an insult to the original poster so please don't read it as such, i'm just saying i'm lost here.

He is on about "What did I do" on Roulette of course

Its the only record by Anita to have been big at any time on the uk northern scene as far as I know

 

Great memories of the 1980s for me !!

I knew he was too, but she had a big record before that called "Everybody's Got You", would be mid 70's.

Yes it is that one, think I have 2 copy with different label layout, demos tho and What Did SHOULD WOULD COULD Do.

 

My demo of "what did I do" is not the usual roulette demo with the check going round the label

just "Roulette" in  black Text on the top and a plain white label  

 

probably east coast vinyl press or something, Ill have to check

Possibly one is Canadian? I preferred the look of the Canadian lable so bought that rather than the U.S. one.

I first heard it when Guy Hennigan used to play it around that time.  Great memories for me as well!

Guy's Brenda Lee Jones - Why Make Me Suffer cover up.

 

The Essex, named after Essex County.  It was the Marines that really forced the split of the group from what I've read so not sure about entertaining the troops?

yes, just had a dig and mine is styrene and with that label

 

You gotta love Guy Hennegan

 

I watched him DJ in Leeds last year and he is still doing amazing things to my ears

 

His focus was still all about his own taste, which is still extra ordinary

 

just a lover of vintage, top bloke

I wonder if this (WDID) still could be as cheap as forty quid?

 

Think I paid and sold mine for that. Only sold it because the recording on my copy sounded dog rough, despite looking like an Alan Minter.

Same as mine. Unlike Prophonics I guess we both prefer this one.

Mine was £50 off here. I think the USA one was the same price?
