Guest Adam G Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 The difference with Al Downing and Party time man is simple "I'm Just Nobody" isnt shit its a nice 7ts dancer I was only made aware of this 45 a couple of years ago and it was being touted as buy it now before it goes big which I did .There was until quite recently a lot on buy it now from the Ebay at cheap prices. I like it but am amazed just how quickly its shot up in price . Funny though I havent heard it out or seen it on many playlists in the recent past not that I go out that much.Anyone know whos pushing it?

Party Time Man Scenario- Let me explain. I was talking more in terms of silly prices being paid for a tune that is not that rare, not in terms of the quality of the record itself.

Dave Thorley Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Come on all, it's not like this hasn't happen a hundred time before. People paid high prices for the first copies of 'The Flasher' way back when. There will always be a cue of trophy hunters or dj's that see a record fill the floor for someone else and want a piece of the action. Their are few of us out there that can't say we haven't been caught up in the buzz or fever around one record or another in the past. A record gets popular, supply outstrips demand so the price goes up, cuz no one will wait. In many cases there is a supply big enough to satisfy demand (like, 'Party time man'), but the speed of that supply getting to the market, didn't match the moment in time everyone wanted it. Is any of this wrong? hell no, just makes the 'scene' what it is, and why we love it (and we do love it). Drama, intrigue, hero's and villians, better than a soap opera. Back to the record in question, nice tune. If you want it now, for what ever reason, you'll have to pay the price (make a great song title ). If you already have it cuz you buy tunes you like, good on ya. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sean Hampsey Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 I've had it since new, but it's always been his hardest 70's release. Not as good as "I'll Be Holding On" or "Bring Your Good Lovin' Home" (IMO) but still a nice enough little record. Sean Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

You know that place where you go virtually every month I remember selling Sam a copy a couple of years ago at The Orwell (£25) and he played it in his set on the same night and said it was gonna be a future monster!!!! He gave it a couple of spins over a few months if memory serves but haven't heard him play it out for a while now! btw I don't think this is easy to find! I don't think it's a mega rarity either BUT young Mr Thorley hit the nail on the head with his succinct views on how this has happened loads of times on the scene! I reckon it's nowhere near as common as the other 70's things that have crossed over to the Northern scene (Ace Spectrum, Futures, Spinners etc). In the past i'd always sold it at £25 before it was known about on the Northern scene but supply and demand has pushed it up to circa £75 now, so time will tell whether this will rise or drop I guess? Pete Warner on the same label did pretty much the same thing and went from £25 to £150 in a very short period of time too! Cheers Steve Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Cheers Steve Yes I know it was played at the Orwell Steve but couldnt remember who by because it was a while ago . To be honest I was meaning the playing of it at Northern venues because you know how much I like going to those on a regular basis . Adam Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest ruffsounds Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 first issued on Columbia 443185 in 64 but was the a side so i'm wondering why it is b side on the Polydor 76 issue and why is it seemingly gonna be so damn expensive when issued twice in the States and once in Germany surely it cant be that rare. ruffsounds Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ernie Andrews Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 As I get told by my fellow djs in Aberdeen that I play crap records, then this one is crap -especially when I played it at the Station hotel when only a handful heard it-I was on at 7pm Then the Gasher gets acopy a week or so later - so now we know the Gasher likes crap records as well!

Alan Pollard Posted October 27, 2007 Share Posted October 27, 2007 Different tune same title on columbia i do believe. Daryl As Daryl correctly points out here that although the titles are identical "I'm just nobody" the songs are entirely different, my copy is on Canadian Columbia 4-43028, sounds early 60T's infact it has a definate country and western feel. When I first spotted the Polydor version on John Manship's Auction my first thoughts where whats this doing on auction and then I played the sound bite and realised the difference, the 70T's cut is a nice record and lets be fair John says it's not rare but could well be in demand over the next 12 months.
