Lets make a note of northern/modern soul 45s that have achieved 10k plus in recent years,either by auction or set sale,or documented any other way....maybe keep it as £s for simplicity.

And where possible include a date.

Joseph Webster My Love Is So Strong. About £15k I think

Mellow Souls - We Can Make It. £10k plus via Manship

Arthur Willis And The Soulful Dynamics – The Hurting Is Over , didn't it make £12k a while back ... ?

Though for the life of me I can't hear how ... 🙉

Whenever I read these Trumped up prices , I often wonder if it's because somebody's found a few , & are just setting the bar high ? ( Just a thought that's all )

Salvador’s went for 10k 2/3 years ago. The copy was first press

Would like to add the following comment.

As we get older a lot of people get spare income as they progress up the management ladder etc. Finished paying for mortgage etc. Children left home.

And if they see something that they want they will pay/bid over the normal price because they couldn't afford it the first time round.

This happens to anything collectable.

Music, Records of many genre, art, fashion ie old trainers etc.

Old cars etc. Ie Escort Cosworths.

The more spare income there is the higher the prices paid.

It's only a thought !!

Lester Tipton 10k

Here's the clip from the Kev Roberts and Richard Searling Sunset Radio Show from around '91 where they're discussing the first few 45s to break the £1000.00 barrier , seems like a lifetime ago as it sometimes seems that everything's worth a grand these days ...

Great snippet.

There is also some money to lose. £1500 for Danny Moore... you can now get it for £150 at the very most...
