Can we put faces to the record? also I have a USA issue,what's the ratio to demo's and issues? Lee Edited November 29, 2016 by dobber 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Kevinkent Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Have a word with Dave Moore. Apparently he bumped into these guys in the States. I think it was during one of the Soultrip USA things and in a bar or maybe hotel bar. He thought the 4 (?) black guys looked likely candidates to be a group so went over and chatted. They'd heard the Brits were in town and said they were the Adams Apples. - Kev 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 (edited) There was an issue sold on ebay in the last week or so for less than £500 (493.07). I know it is in demand and a great dancer but £1k a little OTT. Never seen a photo of the group or found any info about them. there is a website dedicated to the whol Brunswick roster but no info about them.

Guest Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Ray Allen produced "Don't Take It Out On This World". He also produced "Strange Neighbourhood for the Imaginations. I know he produced/arranged another Northern track, but can't remember what it is! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I know it is in demand and a great dancer but £1k a little OTT. Record was pretty scratched so interest was limited. First issue I've seen up for grabs. DJ copies surely outnumber demos by 10:1 at a rough guess. Great tune and evidently an in-demand top 500 oldie. Their other track on Brunswick lists at £100 and is hard to come by. The group were overlooked at the time, possibly because they had an odd name. Sorry, no info on the topic but interested to hear anything. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Goldsoul Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Adams Apples were from New Brunswick NJ. They were on their way to see me at SoultripUSA 2006. A mix up with dates meant they arrived at the Hilton after I departed. I interviewed them for either Jazz FM or Smooth who I worked for at the time. A Black group made to sound white! 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Goldsoul Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I am slowly looking through mini discs to find it along with a few others like Frankie Karl, Freddie Perren plus others. 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Tasty name, powerful name or myterious name...all tempting. Now, Adams Apples, are they hippies, new-age religion or a part of the anatomy? Give a group a daft name and it might not appeal to potential DJ's, record buyers, promoters etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Not sure how bad the scratches were, just said surface marks and plays and sounds well. Condition hasn't stopped other classics commanding a daft sum, look at the Tomangoes that just sold.

Pete S Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I had an issue with a slight edge warp, so I ironed it out. One of the few I did that went wrong. I took £75 for it :-( Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Might be true. The other Adam's Apples release on Brunswick, "You are the one I love" came out in Canada. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
