Didn`t know they were un-playable. There was one a few years ago with a chipped edge and a crack,£600 or so!

Thought that there were a few about,myself.I mean not a lot!

 

At least one on Manship(while ago).

 

Plus,the usual suspects playing out-what would they play them on if not Soultown-a carver?

 

I thought that Soultown was the original?

That`s the only label!

I'm actually quite surprised this record didn't turn up

on Bradford Market back in the day.

 

Quite a few Soultown stuff McKinley Travis (2 titles) , Little Helen (2 maybe 3 titles) and yes even The Sweets were on

there, I don't remember anybody ever getting a Ray Agee, am I wrong though ?.

 

Just seems strange, if most of the label's output was on there but not that one.

Am after a minter but awaiting retirement pension pot. Butch has a copy. Tony Smith #1 has one also as he confirmed earlier - Kenny Burrell tried to buy it but Tony knows his records... John Manship has sold two copies in the last 15 years or so. Nancy from Long Beach sold hers shortly after the recent Manship sale. The few copies that exist play OK apart from the chipped one so there is no quality-control issue with this release. As mentioned on a similar thread in the last couple of years, the record sounds a bit like Ray's 'Hard Workin' Man' on Jewel but is infinitely better than this RnB number.

I thought Bobby Sanders was involved or owned Soultown?  Barrie Waddington met Ray's manager Jerry White and he was adamant that Ray Agee never recorded for Soultown when Barrie show him the 45.  Barrie also said he got to visit one of the Soultown offices, closed down and left in a hurry. Ray Agee said pretty much the same to someone who met him as well.

I think the OP needs to give up the drugs.

 

Plenty of copies about. And quite a few minty ones. 

 

There's very few truly rare records. The Internet has made that very obvious.

Quinvy ,I think you're a cheeky twat !
