      Tell you what, if I was loaded in another lifetime, I would have bought it. It's got to be one of the best, if not THE best adrenaline northern 45 ever. It never fails to make the hairs

Good question, at current ebay bidding values the sky's the limit, if £60 gets you a Sheila Anthony on Route this record is already over £1000 with 6 days left.

It's a difficult to obtain record and my 4th edition Manship guide values it at £2000 for a minter (I know its out of date), VG should be 50% less in value but these days that means nothing.

I suspect this copy could reach £3000 if bidders assume the guide means any half decent playable copy.

I will make do with my demo Tamangoes Grapevine copy because this record is going to be out of my price range. 

Curious what Pete S is gonna make of the sale.

Having just had a close look at the one for sale, as much as you can do on the internet. I think he may have been a little conservative in his grading. Listening to it, it also sound way better than 'half decent'. Think who ever get this will be a happy bunny

Hear hear, sounds great. Better than most things I've been sold as VG+ or even EX+  :yes:  In fact I've given up buying at the moment as I'm sick of sending stuff back that hasn't been play graded, and some that have but have been over graded.

Now that is nice!....much better than the Gwen Owens bin-bag that`s on auction.

Is that the styrene one? Isn't there a vinyl one with very heavy lettering on the Washpan logo? Isn't that 7ts also?

yes there is malcolm.  its the rarer of the 70`s boots on vinyl...but the label looks nothing like the real un wheres as the styrene does

there's also a later vinyl boot, probably from the late 80s/90s

 

the labels on that one look very close to the original

FAR TOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :ohmy:  :ohmy:  :yes:  :yes: :yes:  

 

Tell you what, if I was loaded in another lifetime, I would have bought it. It's got to be one of the best, if not THE best adrenaline northern 45 ever. It never fails to make the hairs stand on end whenever I hear it. Meanwhile, in this lifetime, I'll carry on listening to my 70's vinyl boot.

.........It's got to be one of the best, if not THE best adrenaline northern 45 ever. It never fails to make the hairs stand on end whenever I hear it.....

Same here ! There's good records & then there's great records, to me this falls into the great record category. Nice slow flip to it as well.

Bet you won't be listening to your 70's boot though eh! Ady :thumbsup:

Hope you are well mate

Not to be confused with re-issue G. did in 90's along with "Rat Race" ?

Indeed it is an awful lot of money. You can tell there's an economic crisis going on in the UK :ohmy:

How do know its a UK buyer

Without any shred of evidence at all I reckon this record is probably in most collectors top five of all time.

 

Classic is too small a word to describe it.

 

It's way way beyond good and great - think awesome think immense.

 

It's everything rare northern soul should and could be.

 

It ticks all the boxes. It's got it all. It doesn't get any better than this.

 

Would love to know the timeline / history of this 45 - like who first played it and where etc etc...

 

It could be one of those mental stories in that it never took off when first played and soon got relegated to the back of the box. Only to be resurrected a few years later. I do love a good story.

 

Years ago, when I used to smoke a bit, I did write a completely fictitious story regarding this record purely for my own amusement. Things we do when we're younger eh?

 

This Ebay sale cropped up in conversation earlier today and once again I made the bold statement (without any shred of evidence at all to back it up) that I bet there's more copies of the record here in the UK than there are left over in the states.

Funny thing is at Wigan through 1977-1978 there was always someone selling it and because of the authentication, I never bothered with it but  Linky and Duncan did both had copies then let em go never knowing the story behind them who played it which club ect never knew but then it didn't do to me what it does for you, it is quality but at that price it had to be after all in 77-78 most people just wanted £8-£10 for it !!!!, we sold the boots at Halifax piece hall for 95p rather than the £1.25 as normal.
