Not many about, and thgose that are dont tend to come up for sale. shit rare.

 

I know Pep has one, he may be persuaded to part with it as he's not really DJing anymore - but then again.... he'd probably want more than top dollar for it.

When this got pressed - late 76, was in Pep's shop and he had a small box of 45's for sale, not his, he was selling them for someone, as soon as it was pressed an original was in there for £25, we thought that was a shockingly high price...

So what are we talking these days Pete? Last (and only) time I saw it listed was Pat Brady must be about 6/7 years ago £900.  What's Pep's user name on here anyone?

Only saw Pep on here when Helen died I'm afraid.  He's on facebook though - Ian Perriera (might not be quite right)

Pep doesn't really sell his records though does he?  I've known him 40 years and never even got to look in his box!  He was always very guarded.

Yeah, someone stealing some from his house many years ago was a lot to do with that I think. Times change though Pete, and he's let the odd thing go, you'd be surprised how many things he's actually got 2 (or more) of too!

I always like to see a want as "Urgent".!!

Marking a want as urgent always speeds up the whole process. Same as "willing to pay over Manship auction price" - that does the trick for me...

it was shockingly high price for those days

i sold one to John phillips for £150 at a allniter in manchester 1986/7. (John now lives Australia ) which was the going rate at the time.

The white ones are the issues.  There's no demo / issue as far as I know.

Hi Pete,

 

I think the problem you may have is finding one in 'good nick'. The few copies that have gone on ebay over the years have been vg. With white label records it's nice to get a clean one. Think I've only ever seen one really clean copy before

at least 1200 for a good one Pete

Thanks for the info folks,

 

Only seen 2 myself, the one owned by John Phillips over here sold to him by Aaron and the one on Pat's site years ago.  Both seemed to be a bit grubby.

 

Cheers.......Pete

i tried to get one on here a few months ago,,,,no replies.......i should have bought the one sam had a few years ago it was a minter 900 he wanted.

 

Somebody once told me that this record was withdrawn because a dog 'yelped' in the studio (although what it was doing there in the first place is anyones guess)'

its roundabout 0.47s what do you think?

I think you're barking mad... This record is dog rare so there's only a slim chance of sniffing one down. No point in hounding collectors for a copy and don't expect to find a lead on Soul Source.

Might sell my copy for the right price.

my mates gots one..its a bit rough tho as they all seem to be....

Mine isn't

was there a male vocal to this knocking about in the 90t's..sure i remember hearing one..kitch/dean anderson maybe

Bo fowler acetate dean Anderson

Bob Fowler acetate,got minefrom Rob Marriott

I sometimes wonder if when people say "someone once told me... they actually mean "this is what I think" but are attempting to give some provenance to their theory. Not that I'm suggesting that this is the case here, of course.

 

Anyway, I believe I can hear someone playing a little glissando on the organ around that time. More likely that having a dog in the studio don't you think...?

Rob Marriott used to play it late 80's early 90's

Hi I remember buying this in Manchester, only ever played it out once at thePerth national about five years ago...stunned when it cleared the floor totally!!...strange world of northern Soul !

take care all

What is the difference between the original and the pressing, only I have a copy and presume its a pressing, but you never know I have had it for over thirty years and never seen an original copy. Sorry if this has already been asked.

Mark.

The run out grooves on the pressing/ bootleg is about an inch wide.

If it is a little glissando then it's one of the worst I've heard sounds more like a guide dog for the blind (maybe belonging to the keyboard player)

Mine is NM. 

actually its in good shape .i was mistaken ,,,,the vinyls right but the labels brown....maybe the white ones are demo`s after all 

Just my two-penneth: Candi Staton denies it's her.

Fair enough   I wasn't commenting on the quality.

 

I still think it's the organist. If you chose to to imagine it's the studio's dog I won't stand in your way...

I was being facetious, but the glissando might have been attempted by someone with a stump and not fingers, there I go again!!

well it sounds suspiciously like her….

And why would they put her name to it if it wasn't?

I don't say it's not her. Only that she denies it's her. I guess it's more like she doesn't want to be associated with a commercial flop considering her career.

Hi  Steve - Candi sang it  when she played  in Glasgow's Ferry venue a couple of years ago  .... Sounded great BTW  !!! tfk

According to my mate  Dean Anderson "quote"...it's Bo Fowler not Bob. He wrote it !!!  Better me thinks , he shows how it should be sung and originally made for a male vocalist. DA

Honestly I've heard this rumour before and it's so disrespectful to the singer and musicians to think they'd be that unprofessional - it's obviously a note from an organ and it happens again a couple of seconds later.
