My brother's recent send off, was a tearful reunion of the Melton Mowbray MODS who shaped my life. In 1970 Decky Stevens introduced me to the Brit Club on the banks of the River Trent. I felt so proud to be asked to accompany the man with the best polished brogues in town. I thought I'd entered the exclusive world of MOD-acceptance, through my personality; but it was my very pretty girlfriend's preference for tight fitting hot pants that triggered the invite to ride the bus to Nottingham that night.. A night that changed the course of my life. Not because Decky's MOD persona almost stole my girl away but because my brain that eveningwas bombarded for the very first time with the recordings of Al Kent, J. J. Barnes, Major Lance, Jaybirds, Jimmy McCracklin, Rufus Lumley etc etc. I left the club determined to own all of them, especially that one full of strings that Decky couldn't tell me the artist or the title but I found out on my next visit it was Jackie Edwards - I feel so bad - it became my top want. Ironically a few months later, I had my very first record-digging hit on Melton Mowbray Sunday market. The Kendall brothers and me stumbled upon a 45 collection being sold by "Cetti" his I.d. sticker was on every Tamla Motown, Stateside, Sue, Capitol, Columbia 45 that lay in strewn across the market stall for these 3 country bumpkins trying to amass a Soul collection it was a day to remember. ( another time I'll tell you what prizes we left behind as our feeble knowledge failed us) My prize catch was Major Lance - Investigate - Columbia. The boastings of our find soon spread; Tim Crumb a horse-showjumping Soul boy declared he wanted my Major Lance, but I wouldn't sell. But I would maybe trade it for the super-rare (I'd been told) Jackie Edwards - I feel so bad - he said he'd got a copy..I was darn well ecstatic when we did the trade the very next day. I couldn't wait to get home and play it... I danced around 25 Baldocks Lane like Leicester City had won the league (another one of my dreams) I was at last the owner of Jackie Edwards. And what a pretty label..a brilliant yellow.. a label I'd never seen before. The 'MAGIC' label and it felt like magic and I was so proud of my first record deal.. Until I soon afterwards I was told it was a worthless bootleg worth 75p... Condition Report Some light surface marks, but as you can hear this moment of Jackie Edwards genius plays beatifully clean, those zipping strings in full flow, and Jackie's spellbinding vocal crystal clear. Tiny name SYD a previous protective otherwise clean iconic red and White Island faces.. £700.00 Sorry, this auction has ended. 08/11/2017 18:00 Listen © 2017 John Manship Records.

I think people think this is a rare record when it's not, I could open my own shop selling the amount of copies I've had of it...the French EP must be twice as rare but is only a couple of hundred quid...I picked another one up week before last that's 6 copies in a little over 2 years...the best of which came from the garden centre on Bridgnorth Road for a quid :-) 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Colouredman Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I wonder if the collectors who put those bids in ever go to a venue or look in ‘Sales’ here! I’ve been trying to sell a mint Melvin Elling for about the last 5 years for less than £162; never had even ONE enquiry!!! The strange world of Northern Soul eh???? 3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Gogs Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Sometimes i wish that i would sell all my originals, i could buy all the tracks on bootlegs. re-issues (or whatever these outersight things are) and have £1000's left over but it just wouldn't be the same.
