Guest James Trouble Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 (edited) I can't live without Jerry Hall - Can I Run To You (the version with the good drums)and I would be willing to pay more than market price to get it. So if anybody out there has a copy and would like to sell I'm here waiting.... Desperately James Trouble jamestrouble@hotmail.com Edited December 3, 2004 by James Trouble
Pete S Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 It's Gerri Hall - Who can I run to...I once had both versions of this at the same time, I don't think you can tell the difference til you play them. It just came out on Grapevine though so that'll do me for a tenner
Guest Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 I think it's Gerri Hall? The better version is indeed better. It is strange how this record sounds as if it was swaying due to being played very off center. Last copy I saw went for £600, which is quite a lot IMO.
Guest James Trouble Posted December 3, 2004 Posted December 3, 2004 That's the one. My ability to remember names continues to elude me. I'd be more than happy to £600 for the better version. So if anybody has a copy, and thinks that is too much money, I'm here waiting for the email...
Lenny Harkins Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 Great record. One of my faves! Shane could any body post up the video footage of this, lenny

Guest Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 That's the weak version.....Pete S. this 45 has been £800+ for a long time..... can anyone post a sounfile of the STRONG version please, ive not heard it yet
Pete S Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 (edited) That's the weak version.....Pete S. this 45 has been £800+ for a long time..... Oh please don't tell me how to price my records, I've 3 or 4 copies of this so I know how rare or not it is, if you want to believe the hype and pay that then fine but you'll have a harder job finding a Donna King than this. that should say I've HAD 3 or 4 copies not I have 3 or 4 copies Edited December 20, 2008 by Pete S
Rushden Vic Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 Oh please don't tell me how to price my records, I've 3 or 4 copies of this so I know how rare or not it is, if you want to believe the hype and pay that then fine but you'll have a harder job finding a Donna King than this. that should say I've HAD 3 or 4 copies not I have 3 or 4 copies ive seen the backin vocal copy sell twice recently for a £1000 , if you get any spares pete i,ll gladly give you 500 a time
Guest Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 thanks for the posts. It may just be that i am used to the Grapevine version, but i prefer that to both the Hot Line versions
Quinvy Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 ive seen the backin vocal copy sell twice recently for a £1000 , if you get any spares pete i,ll gladly give you 500 a time Yes, me too Tony.....this is one of them 45's that everyone wants to own....

I suppose it was not in vogue at the time, I think it sounds much better now than in those days! Although I didn't know the drum start version then! Edited December 20, 2008 by Guest
Quinvy Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 thanks for the posts. It may just be that i am used to the Grapevine version, but i prefer that to both the Hot Line versions But the Grapevine version is the same as one of the Hot Line versions....
Sebastian Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 It's Gerri Hall - Who can I run to...I once had both versions of this at the same time, I don't think you can tell the difference til you play them. There must be some difference in the matrix markings between the two different versions. Would be great if anyone of you who currently have a copy of this can post up what it reads in the dead wax and specify which version you've got. Thanks in advance!
Rushden Vic Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 ive got the drum start with backing vocal version and apart from a nashville matrix stamp it reads 174-1719 scratched in the run out groove and a 86 nearer to the matrix stamp. the I LOST THE KEY side is the same but number reads 174-1720 . these 7 figure numbers are also printed on the label
Guest Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 But the Grapevine version is the same as one of the Hot Line versions.... could be just how it sounds on my laptop from the refo clip
Julianb Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 ive got the drum start with backing vocal version and apart from a nashville matrix stamp it reads 174-1719 scratched in the run out groove and a 86 nearer to the matrix stamp. the I LOST THE KEY side is the same but number reads 174-1720 . these 7 figure numbers are also printed on the label Does the matrix have a '1' after the 1719 and a '1' after the 1720 ? Thanks Julian
Rushden Vic Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 Does the matrix have a '1' after the 1719 and a '1' after the 1720 ? Thanks Julian No number 1 s after the matrix numbers Julian
Julianb Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 No number 1 s after the matrix numbers Julian Looks like mine's the unwanted version as the matrices quoted by me are on my copy. Not selling it though
Corbett80 Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 Sonatas hardest Hot Line I would of thought?
Nige Brown Posted December 22, 2008 Posted December 22, 2008 My copy is the "bongo roll" too!! Ive posted a couple of photos of the matrix bits there not brill but it gives ya the idea what they look like Nige B
Jonko Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I recently found a copyof this in my stored away collection, how do I know which is the sought after version? Can anyone help identify which my copy is? thanks.
Ted Massey Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) play it easy peasey Edited January 10, 2014 by Ted Massey
Jonko Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 What and where is the Bongo roll ? Is this how to identify it. The matrix numbers scrated in the run of has the -1 after them (both sides), Does this mean anything?
Pete S Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Right at the start - drum roll - like this one
Jonko Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Yeah, mine is without the drumrole. That is weird as it has like double vocal on it. Think I prefer the one without. HOw much is this worth these days?
Pete S Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Yeah, mine is without the drumrole. That is weird as it has like double vocal on it. Think I prefer the one without. HOw much is this worth these days? I couldn't tell you, honestly, if you go back through this thread look at the arguments that were going on 10 years ago...was probably cos I'd had a couple of copies recently and sold them several hundred quid cheaper than had been mentioned. I'd try £800 quid if I were you, I'd probably ask and get that I think.
Mrtag Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I don't think anyone is going to own this in good condition for less than a 4 figure sum!!
Quinvy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 (edited) Right at the start - drum roll - like this one This is the one to own, you won't get anywhere near the same price for the other one. Edited January 10, 2014 by Quinvy
Dobber Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 One without the drum roll is better Defo pete,the version without the drum roll and one vocal take is miles better,that double vocal on the other take ruins the song,I wouldn't bother with that one,anyway I don't know which one is rarer or more valuable?
Wiggyflat Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Quite popular on the early eighties mod scene.Funnily enough Peter Daley PMS me a year ago...Kev I'm looking to sell this How much.? I say auction it.He got 600 quid for it.I hear it at stoke and pm him...which is when I got the news.
Guest wigan bob Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 ian wills bought this of r domart for 12pound then swapped it for cashmeres carver in 90 s

Guest Mr Ms DJ Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Actually bob I paid £8 in 1982 off domar and like you said swapped it for a carver and some British demos that copy now belongs to bob Hinsley I since bought another copy the one with the bongo intro and it's a minter
Quinvy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 JAMES YOUR IN DEEP TROUBLE....I HAVE MY MINTER FORSALE. George, read the date on James's post. You missed the boat, in fact the boat has probably been scraped by now. Bloody smileys have gone again.
Jonko Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 The double vocal one grows on you after a few plays! Has anyone sold a copy of this recently - say in the last 12months as I reliease this thread was a bit old before I posted in it yesterday.
Mrtag Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 George, read the date on James's post. You missed the boat, in fact the boat has probably been scraped by now. Bloody smileys have gone again.

Biggordy Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 It would be an even better record if it didn't sound off centre......
