I was standing in the kitchen, making a coffee, like you do.. when suddenly i started singing Eddie's My Name by Eddie Holman. I realised what great lyrics it has and what a great record it is and that i haven't heard it played out for years.

Anyway, how much does it go for these days? Not sure i've ever seen one for sale on Parkway, i'm prepared for a shock answer.

No price on this classic, but a release date of April 1966. Perhaps start a new(?) thread, what was the best year for soul music!!

Don't think the lyrics are very PC(politicaly correct) but I think they're great too, mate! Don't think it's too exspensive either.

Funnily enough i've been thinking about this record also, it's kin brill!!

keep on meaning to pick up a copy but never get round to it, i hope this interest doesn't escalate the price!

Ady played it a few times down the 100 club over the last year 6.30ish goes down a storm.

I played it at Soul in the City last year a few times, major dealers tend to list this between £40-50.

A Shake staple too.

And oddly enough you never hear Eddie Pillar do a set without playing it.

Love it!

I bought it in 1983 for £4.00 as it was big sound then being played by John Buck at RSG in Hemel Old Town on Thursday nights and I well liked it and was thinking about and dug it out and played it at home.

I had not heard it for years and I thought wow that still sounds good now so I took it down to the Net Bar and played it.

I didn't think it would be all that popular nowadays but before it span Andy BB looked at it on the deck and gave it a clap.

I thought what a great endorcement and so my fears of an empty dance floor suddenly faded away and it went down a storm.

I like Eddie Holman so does anyone know when he is coming back to the UK?
