Apart from one off acetates I believe that our ´rare´ soul scene isn´t as rare as we might think. Some rare tunes seem to come up every week (with the appropriate rare soul price, I might add). Some of the cheapies on my wants list never seem to come up so does that make them rare.

Anyway, I´ve been scratching my head to think of tunes that have never been listed for sale on ebay. The only one I can think of is Little Tommy on Gogate. Any others?

Has Jimmy Andrews on Blue Jay been on?

Or "Stand Up Straight" by Pat & Mik?

Billy Butler (Liverpool Mardi Gras, Cavern) has been after this since 1967. Well, maybe not every waking moment.

Never turned up ANYWHERE.

Has Jimmy Andrews on Blue Jay been on?

Yes Tony, Coachunt (spelling?) fella had one on once, Ady.

Certainly remember the Walter and The Admirations....soundfile sounded like bacon frying...shame

Flo smogg as defo been on the Bay,remember Tats emailing the page too me,I said i didnt know the record then found the track on a compilation Lp i had..awesome tune Simon.

Agreed awesome tune...........whether it's been on ebay or not...........sorry not topical but just had to say!!!

Certainly remember the Walter and The Admirations....soundfile sounded like bacon frying...shame

And the label was..

little esther grant??

dont ever remember seeing a dynamic 3 on ebay ????

there was a Primers a month or so ago

The Primers sounds like a white garage band doing a third rate soul cover , why would any one want that , or am i missing something ?

Yes Tony, Coachunt (spelling?) fella had one on once, Ady.

which he sold for £1200 approx

i cannot remember any usa copys of move on up,curtis mayfield on e-bay,seen a few uk copys on e-bay,

dont ever remember seeing a dynamic 3 on ebay ????

i recall there being one on ebay about 3 years. i take it you mean you said yeah on del val. it made around 2000 dollars.popsike dosent show all the expensive stuff. anthony and the delsonics has been on at least twice but no copies on popsike

dave

I'd have thought a lot of the questions could be answered on Popsike???

So, is popsike the DEFINITIVE site on ebay sold records or is there another one?

if something shows up on popsike that means it HAS been on ebay.

if something does NOT show up on popsike it means nothing because popsike does not index all auctions.

so popsike cannot answer most of the questions here as to whether something has NOT shown up unless it shows up in popsike.

Roy Roberts on Sugar?

Cole & The Grandeurs?

Profs?

Keith Curtiss?

Du-Shells?

Cheryl Johnson?

Cole & The Grandeurs?

Profs?

Keith Curtiss?

Du-Shells?

cole and the grandures was on ebay at least twice. a new york sell-for-you-on-ebay place had it mint and it went for $750. Kevin Cox had a beat up copy recently, I was the high bidder for pretty low but didn't meet the reserve.

Cheryl Johnson?

been on twice john....i bought em both

Roy Roberts on Sugar?

Cole & The Grandeurs?

Profs?

Keith Curtiss?

Du-Shells?

Anyone got a sound file of Cole & The Grandeurs?

been on twice john....i bought em both

makes sense!

Anyone got a sound file of Cole & The Grandeurs?

it's cole and the grandures, , u-r-e-s

it's an early soul / doowop transitional thing, one side is more doowop and the other is northern-ish, always much better known to doowop collectors. it's not r&b-ish at all if that's what you were trying to find. it's a chicago record.

I was hoping it was going to be a '66 or '67 pound-a-thon, judging by how highly its been rated. Is it more in the Five Chances vein?

Has Little Willie Johnson (as a Vendellas issue) ever been on the bay??

Edited January 8, 200916 yr by mulf

never seen executive 4 on ebay, o judy hughes, but likely if they have i missed them

'Yes it has, Wrighty bought it, then sold to brother Trouble'

Ah didn't realise that copy was off the bay. I've had the pleasure of having a look at it and its in tip top condition if i remember rightly.

Dianne Elliott - when he speaks on New Horizon.. don't think this has surfaced on ebay yet???

I think I can say with some confidence that "The Verdict" by Paul Kelly has never appeared on eBay. Or anywhere else other than Jeff Lemlich's house...

It was the first record I ever put in my 'Favourite Searches', towards the end of the last century, and it's still there...

Isn't the Paul Kelly 45 called The Upset?

The Upset has been on a couple of times, my mate got one off there two or three years ago.

Yes, sorry, "The Upset" it is, excuse my unintentional typo - but it hasn't been on eBay in the 10 years that I've been a member, sorry.

I have it in my favourite searches as "Paul Kelly Upset", "Paul Kelly 45" and just plain ol' "Paul Kelly", which means that I have to sift through hundreds of records by the Australian PK and untold copies of our one's common 45s every month. I can't possibly have missed it. Not a chance. And certainly not as recently as last November!!!

It's also not on Popsike, which is a good indication of its lack of eBay appearances (albeit not perhaps an infallible one, I grant you).

But if it's that common, perhaps someone will sell me one cheap?

it definitely was on recently, I think butch won a trashed copy recently, it went cheap and wouldn't be in popsike. I think it was a couple of months ago. It was a jamaican seller from florida. I'm sure I've seen it before too.

You haven't been looking hard enough. It is as rare as hens teeth Tony granted but I promise you a mate of mine has had one maybe two off e-bay. I distinctly remember the first about 3 years ago cause I'd just saved all the relevant places to look on e-bay in his bookmarks, that night one of the first he found was Paul Kelly. I think he has had another since plus the one to another buyer on just recently.

I've had this on my wants list for ages as 'Upset Move'

Yep, been on a fair few of times.

Sorry Tony...it was on ebay about 8 weeks ago and was a pretty mashed copy. I booked marked it myself. A certain well known UK DJ/collector/dealer got it pretty cheap.
