Hello everyone.

I've got a standard copy (no white demo) of "Dennis Edwards - Johnnie on the spot/I didn't have to" on International Soulsville, and someone told me it might be worth a few pounds?

I've seen the demo go for loads of money on ebay, but this one can't possibly be worth that much... so my question is: does anybody know the approx value of this gem???

cheers

/Bob

About £4k+ for a nice one I reckon Bob ..

Welcome to Soul Source btw, could I ask you to post a hi in the intro section please.

It was bootlegged on both the white demo & the black issue. I think you tell the difference buy the matix stamp that is only on the originals.

Oh I see.. well that's nothing unusual I suppose...

How would that matrix stamp look like??

/Bob

on the run out groove it may have a number either scratched or stamped there

ok, thanks.

the run out groove does have a number in it.. and the number is scratched.

Might be a idea to scan it or take a photo

Edit: Oh.. Sorry, didn't read the part about issue vs. demo..

The original has the matrix numbers stamped in with a wide but very small H or I depending on what way you look at it. Stamped in there is also a symbol that looks like a hat stamped in both sides.

Hope this helps

thanks a lot for all your help...sad to say my copy seems to be of the bootleg type

but it's good to know that I can get answers from people who knows things like this!

cheers

An original issue of this record is NOT black, the label is infact a light beige colour and the label title

INTERNATIONAL SOULVILLE is in red - also very, very rare I know of only 2 copies in the country unless

anyone else knows otherwise.

I would rate the commoner demo's at £2000 ish (see popsike website)

add on perhaps a £1000 for an issue.

Sorry, my reply was misleading, I meant booted AS a WD & AS a black issue

Am I the only person that thinks the B side is ten times better?

No Steve I agree with you .First heard it when Sam Dropped it at an early soul essence along with stuff like the Locations Mr Diamond man.

The other side pales incomparison

Yes.. "I Didn't Have To" is a helluva better tune Adam.

That said.... it's not exactly his best 45 is it?

(Although it is better than the crumby Locations).

Hope you're well mate.

Hammie,

Stock is DOG-RARE! I only know of one copy (ex Mick H's), is there another one?

Or you been on the wine again.

Can't stand JOS but have the bootleg for the flip

I agree the flip is better. What about His version of I Like Every Thing About You, pure genius somtimes credited to the contours unissued. I will spin both these tunes next week in Yate(20 OCT). Will be posting details and recent playlists in events talk over the weekend.

So that's five of us that prefer the flip side - thank goodness for that!

Make that 6

Anything is better than the A side, I think it's a pile of poo
