Timi Yuro - ???

 

Yes too bad - and again a record was taken off the site before the auction ended. Or have I missed something here?
Last stand was for Timi Yuro at 18:02 = 1660£!

Someone got a steal with the Leon Antoine.

Timi ended at £1736

Hi - best thanks for the investigative support, but it was no longer listed on the site, was it?

Timi Yuro

It’ll Never Be Over For Me / As Long As There Is You

Liberty: LBF 15182 (45s)

British Only!

Utterly essential Northern Soul…from one of the last century’s greatest female voices.

Made in the UK, produced by Timi Yuro and Marshall Leib under their partnered banner of ROMA Productions. Taking two letters from each names Time YuRO / MArshall Leib. They upscale Baby Washington’s 1964 New York sister sledgehammer beat ballad at Wessex Sound Studios in London, December 1968. Pulling in some notable assistance from the great Les Reed, along with Ian Green (Rosetta Hightower’s partner) another soul orientated arranger, between them pumping up this almighty production way beyond any of their previous work.

The resulting in the most-wanted, best-loved female vocal 45 ever released in the UK.

Listen, take a deep breath and ensure this NS masterpiece does not pass you by.

Apparently the records are de-listed as soon as payment is made

mind i wasnt logged in either as i dont bid on any auctions that could have some bearing on it

Baffled as to why an Esther Phillips demo should go for four or five times the going rate of an issue valued at £100-125?

I really tried to get on with this after the hyperbole on the site but found it left me cold.  It all seemed a bit 'Emperors New Clothes' ish to me.  Strokes for folks I guess.

Sy Hightower gotta be a great collectors record??..thank you..Rob

(Obviously not a cheapie)

Edited June 1, 20222 yr by Lionelonthevinyl

Timi Yuro, not even that rate but fetches more than Sy Hightower, a genuine rarity.  Just buy the Timi Yuro Lp and save a fortune. SWONS

£300 for my still sealed Raphael Saadiq then?

And I bet they've never heard of Tony Toni Tone?...............

I don't normally comment on auction prices, since it is up to the individual what they pay for a record they want. But, as a collector I'd prefer not to split up the Rafael Saadiq box set as it is a unique item. As for Sy Hightower, seems to have sold for a lot less than the seller paid for it last time it was auctioned.  The fact that Time Yuro, of which there are hundreds of copies sells for more than a rarity like that shows just how "confused" the market is right now. 

Edited June 1, 20222 yr by Steve G

Re Raphael/Tony Toni Tone........."I Couldn't Keep It To Myself" from the Tony 's and "Skyy Can You Feel Me" from Raphael.  And my own choice from the 7x7's/LP/CD mentioned here was "Never Give You Up".

JM says Lovelace Watkins is UK only in his description. But it came out on US Fontana didn't it?

uk production

I was surprised to see he has Craig Douglas Don't Mind if I Cry listed as UK only which  had releases in India  Portugal and South Africa. Maybe in this case the UK only relates to a demo copy.

The LP will be cheaper, but then you would only have the LP, and would not have the original 45!

I would think that the buyer really wants the original single.

It’s the punters that are confused Steve, pushing the madness further .

Of course JM can be wrong in his item descriptions at times. However if he uses sales boosting phrases like "UK Only" I expect him to get his facts right.

I think if you look more closely he said Bristish only "production"at the top which is 100% true, even the publishing (and I am not a fan of his ramblings on auctions) he confused it down the page

Edited June 2, 20222 yr by Blackpoolsoul

Did not realise 'prepared to love me' had appreciated that much.

Then again it was a weeks wages in 76 and about the same today...

It was always a shame the Tonys 'i couldn't keep it to myself' never got a single release. The LP was too low cut to play it out from without getting feedback.

I think it's more of a subtle thing, smoother 70's, beautiful Luther V style voice, fender rhodes. Certainly ain't northern big room stuff, more chilled bar sound. But yes, strokes for folks Dave.
