Uncommon but not rare. Turns up on ebay but usually not in the best shape circa £25 - £50.  Although not really a dancer it is sold as "northern" or "blue eyed soul" and I guess is "known", if not widely.

Here is a link to some info regarding the 45 and the band - https://www.duluthbudgeteer.com/content/duluth-rocked-band-reuniting-two-harbors-gig

Thanks for the information mate   That was a lot more than I expected.

chances look a bit slim then but hoping somebody has one for sale

in reasonable shape

You have probably seen that there is copy for sale on discogs, but @£300 I would wait a while.

Suppose it dont really help you now, but for a ball park figure ,i sold a copy in VG+ condition on musicstack 2 months ago for £40

I am sure if the accidentals was in demand the price would shoot up pretty fast .i have owned a copy for some years bought in the Midwest .Many years of digging and I have never seen another copy for sale at a record show ,record store or flea market in the US so certainly not common but not a £300 tune

 

 

I have a copy of this in excellent condition and IMHO is a great Blue eyed soul dancer, I rate it very highly, a bit tough to find, but as previous posts have said if it was in demand the price would soar. 

Horses for courses as they say, if it rocks your boat then that's all that matters, why chase what everybody else chases, good luck on finding one (at the right price) it's worth the wait and the money!  Love it.

Thanks for all your help and info guys. Thanks tiberius, no I hadn't seen the one on discogs but as you say a bit steep at £300

If anybody has got a VG+ or above, I'll gladly pay £50 or more, condition dependant.  PM me if you do have one you'd part with.

Thanks

the one on discogs is from steve thomas in wales so he obviosly rates it. nice tune but seems to go for 50 ish not 300

Just to add some more weight to expected value here is a copy of the 45 which sat on ebay for quite some time as a "buy it now" before it sold - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ACCIDENTALS-These-Days-2-20-Losers-Advice-U-S-7-7-1967-Harbor-Records-7-7953-/161476553567?nma=true&si=z9MwCi%252FUKBxMOxPxfTn%252FKXcXYpc%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

I passed it up due to the VG grading.

Yes it would be nice to have a soundfile to listen to, but I think I would have gone for that if I'd seen it

Never mind next one he says optimistically
