I sold that for 10 quid about 6 weeks ago, I honestly didn't think it had any value at all! You could just buy it as a new release, there were millions of them.

There were loads of these about, they were bought in quantity as a new release in 77, every man and his dog bought one at the time. I would be embarrased to ask for more than £10 for it.

Martyn Pitt Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Heres a thought .... the blue ones were re-issues, thing is everyone (and their dog) had bought an orange one, so there were fewer blue ones sold .... does that sound plausable Keiths prices look more realistic.

Steve G Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I had it on a light Blue one allways thorght it was a boot might still have it some where. Got it on a Grapevine Demo too so whats that go for Think Blue came first and it got re-pressed in orange in April 1977 when it took off at Wigan Great record by the way - the lead singer couldn't do the vocals so it's James Mitchell of the Detroit Emeralds on lead vocal.

Ian Seaman Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Yeah i would say the Blue ones came out 1st, the orange were the re issues, the blue one always seems to make more money and if you ask around i bet 7 out of 10 peeps have an orange one !!

Steve G Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 why not put a little mark on the right side steve. mark Yes I'll do that. Anyone that wants to know more about the group (but not the blue and orange releases) should check out my article in Manifesto from a couple of years back on Fee Records - they also recorded on Venture. the FEs were the detroit Emeralds backing band, largely white, and came over to the UK on tour with the Detroit Emeralds several times. I have other Fees in blue (e.g. Leo Lyons - written by John Anderson ) and orange (e.g. NOW also the Detroit Emeralds moonlighting), so this is no great 1st / 2nd issue story, just different presses with different colour labels.

Many an afternoon spent playing those records from a cardboard box thinking I had really found a treasure. A lot of boots but I remember going there one Saturday (the little old shop before the flood) and asking him for a Terry Callier he said Oh! just a minute and popped down stairs came out with a copy for £1.20. I left the Fylde 28 years ago so lost contact. Edited January 27, 2008 by Prophonics 2029 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
