Just Looking through the "Collectable UK 45s of Swinging 6os" listing and I'v never seen this before, was it released on UK Roulette?

Little Jimmy Gandy........Cool Thirteen/I'm not like the others. RO.510

Common on US, listed at £25.

Just curious

Blake

I'm fairly sure this is an old typo that's got copied and perpetuated over the years, I've never seen it on British. On a similar theme, there's supposed to be a Sam Dees release on UK Major Minor (If it's all wrong/Don't keep me hanging on) - has anyone ever seen this? I've got a catalogue from the 60's which lists it, and it's still in the latest Record Collector price guide, yet I've never seen it. Can anyone confirm its existence?

Ha Ha Blake... seems like you and nickinstoke have a lot in common!

Fact is, neither record exists.

If they did I would have 'em!

What, that were both sad anoraks

No mate... all three of us are that... I'll admit!

Just that the "Sam Dees on Major Minor" is one of your favourite questions!

I've looked for years for the Dees and I honestly don't think either exists on UK mate.

A Little Jimmy Gandy on British would be a seriously prized item I reckon!

Sean

Both about as common as a volumes on uk pama

Hey Sean, take it you're a keen UK collector with a fair sprinkling of UK label obscurities?

For those who might be interested, could you list a few of these by way of an example?

It would be of great interest to me if nobody else.

Not so much these days but used to love my british stuff in the early 70's and had most, if not all, of the big tunes of the time on UK labels.

To be honest, my failing is that for the last 30 odd years I've collected almost anything these days - UK, US, Australian, Argentinian, Lebanese, European, Japanese, 45's, Acetates, Test Pressings, LP's, 12", CD's, 60's, 70's, 80's 90's, Y2K... every bloody thing.

I get more turned on these days by things like this!

And This!

And even this!

And This!

Now Tower of Power I really like myself, even though it extends into a release year period on the limit of my record collecting period.

The first two I've never even seen before. Take it the first one is a UK release and the Jaedes is Australian? That one looks really good. Love to hear it as well. Soundbyte? IT'S OKAY, I'VE FOUND ONE. NOWT ON THE LOLEATTA HOLLOWAY THOUGH.

Sounds / looks like we could discuss this stuff for hours and days and weeks. But whose got time these days?

Whereabouts do you live Sean? Where do you venture out?

Any others?

Edited August 7, 200718 yr by denbo

Both are 1969 releases and both have genuine "in sequence" releases numbers. Also both hit the weekly release week sheets...wierd?

655 Major Minor 1969 Sam Dees

510 Roulette 1969 Little Jimmy Gandy

To be honest at 54 everything becomes a blur.. but i'm sorta sure i've had or seen both.... in my sleep?? awake??

I'm on my third glass of wine though.. help is required.

John... it all becomes a blur well before then mate.

But I'm pretty sure you only saw them in your dreams.

I know I have often enough!

Seriously.... anyone else see record labels all night in their sleep?

I've done it for years. Sometimes I don't want to wake up its so good!

Think I'll get an early night!

Got loads more... but I'm supposed to be working right now.

Trying to complete a presentation that I'm doing in the morning.

I live west of Chesterfield.

Will be at "Without Boundaries" on Bank Holiday Sunday!

Am Tall Dark & Handsome... and have a GSOH

Afraid so, since a large part of my collection got damaged in last months flood!

Never mentioned the Dees track Sean and only twice ever on here, but as you know re Buddy Causey it pays to ask.

My favorite question on here is, has anyone a copy of ..........................for sale?

Blake

Both about as common as a volumes on uk pama

No, that does exist!

I was working in a record shop that stocked at least one copy of every new UK soul release by the time the Dees and Gandy 45s would have been released. If they had come out, we would unquestionably have stocked both. Never saw them in stock there, never seen them anywhere else since. If I'd ever found a Sam Dees on Major Minor, it would still be in my possession now...

...and if John M reckons that he might have seen them both once, I reckon he needs to knock the vino on the head and stick to sarsaparilla!

Tony,

If the Volumes on UK Pama exists, then prehaps fairies and UFO's are also out there.

Paul

Theres an abundance of Fairies, and plenty of things flying past my head that I can't identify, so maybe the volumes does exist on Pama...

Blake

That's why I said you've a lot in common, if you've mentioned the Dees track on Major Minor here before Blake. I know for sure that we've also discussed it before... unless I've got you confused with someone else... probably John Benson (I've discussed every record ever released with him, at least twice in my lifetime ).

So what abot Buddy Causey? Have you got one yet?

I saw one on a list about 3 weeks ago but when I called it had gone.

Was it you?

Tony,

Paul

Sorry, Paul (and anyone else waiting to point my error out to me) - the lunchtime Young's was temporarily clouding an otherwise functional brain. I was reading and thinking "The Persians" instead of "The Volumes". Seen plenty of copies of the former on Pama, none whatsoever of the latter...

That'll beach me to have a gentle dig at John M about drinking over thinking

more chance of millwall winning the cup tone than finding a volumes mate
