Thank you for sharing and posting as always 😊

Rob. Your not out of date mate. The buyer of the tangeers is our of there tree,  almost double what its worth.  It peaked about £750 a few years ago and was falling in price again. Crazy 

PS Chuck Cockerham. Is possibly the best record that will be auctioned this year. I wish I had the spare cash to have bought it.  Love it

No comment on the price but this review of Chuck Cockerham from Blues and Soul is quite interesting. In 1968/9 they had started reviewing some new US releases on Amy/Mala/Bell. I think this was because EMI had set up the UK Bell label instead of issuing the label's output on Stateside. They had issued quite a few singles as well as the two volumes of Bell's Cellar Full of Soul LPs so were trying to push Bell as a distinct sound. Even though B&S reviewed the records I don't think they were available outside London, or more specifically the Soul City shop. 

As a teenager then, I think I would have had a similar opinion of Chuck C as the reviewer. The record was way ahead of it's time but is now rightly recognised. The record is the last review on the right side.

I think due to how hard Chuck Cockerham is to obtain,everybody had the same thoughts on it at the time this was reviewed. I was led to believe that Tim Brown had a copy and thought he was white,so sold it on.

Bought my mint issue from the Soul Bowl for £10. In those days it was always sold for "What's The Use In Me Trying".

Both sides are lyrically a bit depressing.  One side is about giving up on life and the other is about being free from this life.

I have never known what all the fuss was about with "Let My Heart and Soul be Free".

It's ok, but that's all!

I respectfully beg to differ - "Let My Heart and Soul be Free" is just beautiful (100 Club memories for me)

I heard that Robbo (legend) was the person who told Shifty to turn it over to start playing it.

Len :thumbsup:

P.s - I like depressing records and (as Nina the Mrs states) ones that are monotonous and go nowhere :D

Ady was the one who flipped it as far as I am aware, that was in the 80s before Shifty got his stint there.  I also cleared the floor at the Tracky Club and all over Yorkshire/Derbyshire with it about the same time, everyone still wanted the fast side.

£1200 though is just barmy for something that in essence isn’t even rare, it is up for sale on a pretty regular basis. 
 

Chuck Cockerham has always been tough but never really achieved it’s worth when sold.  Think the mainstream are finally latching on to it.

Sorry Chalky not me, I actually don’t like that side that much

Very true mate. Missed that one.  Has it ever reached £100 in the real world 

Yes Steve. Several times. I’ve been waiting to pounce. One of my earliest favourites, right out of my price range in 1974. I have two variants but there’s always room for another one...

I love it to mate. But didn't think it had reached the £100 .Was a privilege to see them singing it at Prestatyn a few years ago , More than a privilege really.  It was very special
