'And if it's just a record that you and a few other people you asked about know, how do you know that it's not well known by others?'

But most of us like talking about rare records which is why we are here, and in mentioning these records perhaps someone can throw some light on them, so this thread is very worthwhile imho. Fine if you are lucky enough to have them all but if you aren't perhaps it may stimulate some info for others?

The irony of all this is that there are literally 1000's of really rare records.

feel free to talk about whatever records you want, rare or not, I'm not stopping you. I was just saying that trying to count numbers of copies is what's silly. I complained about this in another thread where someone was selling an obscure but not ultra-rare record as "two known copies." Thanks.

Yes !! BUT.... 80% of them are SHITE !!

wouldn't be very interesting if there were only a few hundred.

I sill hear records that are new to me every week. Its a bottomless pit.

Hmm, except if they had read this thread they might have had a better idea of how many know copies there were.

I have one - as does Tim Brown. Also have an Alice Rouzier & Little Joe on the same label here, suspect this is just as hard.

Just played Ace's discographer Peter Gibbon's copy of Floyd Barber on Symbol, it's very good but inbetween so many styles, Northern, mod R&B. Has it ever had any plays or action?

How about these.............

Billy Woods [sussex]...........

Del- Larks "JOB OPENING"........

Eddie Parker "IM GONE"........

Bobby Adams "Thats The Kinda Man I Am"......

Well,i know theres copies of all of em floating around but just how many...? I often wonder[Thats how sad i am ]..........

Hi, my Eddie Parker "I'm Gone" is on a green AWAKE Records label, I assume it's no good?

Cheers

I just started playing it in Hamburg to a very good reception. I think once you hear it a few times, it fits very well into a set of Northern with a bit of R&B!!! NICE

Anyone know the rarity scale of the Answers on Scorpion? Never seen one for sale....

What about The Magnetics-When I,m With My Baby

i,ve only seen one....and that was 30 years ago!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Her's a few more

Combinations-Kimtone maybe 4-5

Classics-Yan G maybe 3

Eddie Parker-I lost a true love-Mica(I think)?? Only one I know of is Andy Dyson's. Much better version than the Triple B one. I have an original studio disc of it.

Hello Dave,

Eddie P's on Miko I believe. I'm pretty sure that it's the exact same cut as the Tripple B version... though I'm prepared to be corrected! I know Butch sold a minter and a beat up one in the last year or three.

I have a Little Tony on Etah by the way folks - to add to the list.

Ther label is MAM (across the top) with Miko underneath. Sure other ones I've seen have something different to Miko though, maybe Mica There is a scan on the Lifeline web site https://lifelinesoulclub.com/sounds.htm

I have an Elliot Baron and Tony Michaels on Golden World and wouldn`t think they are THAT rare although they do belong to the rarer ones on that label for sure.

There were recently two copies of Ric Martin up for grabs on here. Both around 800 UKP.

Ernestine Eady (Phil La) ?

Must be quite some copies on Ernestine Eady, more then 10 thats for sure. I can remember two going thru ebay, Carl Fortnum had one already years and years ago, one was up for grabs on here recently, most "known" DJ`s in the UK seem to have one as well ?

Tommy Tate = Tommy & The Derbys ? Again, some copies of this...Butch, Maria Orlovic, Andy Dyson, Ginger Tayor and some more...

What's the Tommy Tate on ABC Paramount like Steve? One I've seen on discographies for years and on the odd playlist of yours in recent times. It's certainly very elusive.

Great thread but could you put up some of the values of these rare records too?

Here's a couple of questions, might seem obvious but here goes.......

Morris Chestnut 'Too darn Soulful' Amy DJ. (Labels on the right sides) is this rare?

Grover Mitchell 'Got to keep on moving' Decca. Again, Rare or not?

Jimmy Radcliffe 'You made a man of me' Acitate. Rare?

Also if the records listed here are soooo rare how the hell did you lot get to hear of them?????

cheers

Not read the full thread, but I think I saw only listed on Wand Records listing - The Just Brothers Carlenna, never ever seen one on any decks/listed 4 sale or know of anyone having it, unless Mick Smith can through any light on this ????????????????
