DUNNO IF THIS HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE BUT I THINK THIS COULD WELL BE OF INTEREST

talkin' rarest of rare only here,say maybe under 50 perhaps known copies of the original of course,just name the record/title and the peeps in the know may help provide the details.approx value as well!

....I'll start with....

Terri Goodnight....they didn't know

Edited February 22, 200916 yr by dancingcollector

As for the Del Larks I would have to say more than 100...............

Best,

RB

More than a 100? what, 150, 200?

I would guess most oldies collectors have a copy at the back of their box.

Mostly seen black & silver ones over recent years, or is it the same copies changing hands ?

No Ted, definately Eddie Hubbard on the Sat. or Sun? afternoon. Cause i went up and spoke to him about it.

Martyn

where's Eddie? I didn't know of another in the UK...well anywhere until the one appeared on e-bay couple of weeks ago.

Soul Brothers Inc - Teardrops - Salem

Carl Willingham

Me

...plus a very beaten, rough and cracked (?) copy once on an US list that a mate of mine saw but did not buy and has kept regretting it ever since.

I've got a mint one, got it off Steve Cooper from Bedford a few years ago, he had 2 mint copies. Think the other one went back to America.

CAN WE COUNT COVER UP'S

IF SO

HERB JOHNSON BRING ME COFFEE IN THE MORNIN

what a tune, hope there's more copies of that one and that one comes my way if so

both the Gogate 45s are hitting a high quality to rarity ratio imo, resigned o never owning either

yeah, there's a second one, a great r&b dancer called "i say no, no more." not aware of any besides my copy, white promo.

anyone know the Grover Pruitt on Salem? never seen one for sale, but dont know if it's known or rare. I'd like one anyway...

and a George Jackson, Milton James.... this is a bit depressing!

If you mean "Little Girl" - then yep, been a constant in my sets for about two years, and def one of my absolute all-time favourites. Brilliant.

Got mine from Manship for about that price probably two and a half years ago. Could well be the same one (or, of course, there's bundles of them about).

Sorry Martin dont think Eddie ever had Kel Osborne might have been butch or Tim brown

I played the Loma version at Cleethorpes , never had the Highland one [i wish !! ] .Best,Eddie

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 ????????????????

Never came out as far as anyone knows.

Mine was a mint minus white demo, so if yours is the same chances are its the same then

Come on Ted, i know the difference between what Eddie, and Mick Smith looks like. And also th edifference between the vocal versions. Been around long enough.

Never came out as far as anyone knows.

Never came out. I met Frank Bryant in '98 and asked him about it. Wand were interested, and asigned it and Honeybees no's. But the riots were going on, so it was several weeks before they could get the mastertapes out of the city. By this time he said Wand had lost interest, so they never came out.

Must have been the beer. Not very often i make that mistake. Sorry Ted.

Must be 6 or 7 Billy Woods (mine was one of the original 5 that John Anderson had, though it came to me from John Manship).

Del Larks - loads if you're talking about blue/silver copies.

Bobby Adams; Polk told me that there were only a handful, because the office burnt down the day they took delivery, the tapes had been returned to them with the vinyl by the pressing plant so they were also destroyed, and though the plant still had the stampers they couldn't afford to get more copies made. A handful had been taken home the label owner. Well thats what Polk told me anyway.

Eddie Parker - can't be many of that one.

Black issue of the Yum Yums - I would love to see scan of that!

good pun Ivor - not so many of those about!

Best,

RB

Rich, its Poke as in poke in the eye and not Polk as in Frank Polk

And yes that's what I always understood re the Bobby Adams.

dont worry martin read all the thread next time

Which George Jackson, Mik, out of interest?

Sean

"Tender Love" at a wild guess...now thats a serious rare record.

Marc

What are your views on The M.B.S. - Another day - B-Jet?

Certainly not ultra rare but nonetheless not a record that is around in quantity IMO...

Terri G 3 at the moment

There's a Billy Woods in Oz not sure if you'd counted that. What about....

Little Willie Faulk - Look Into My Heart

Gene Toones blue issue

Gwen Owens white & green demo (also 1 of these in Oz)

Cheers.........Pete

great 60s soul....not a stomper but good 60s dance - will play it at Yarmuff if you're going.

TUNE!!!!

"Tender Love" at a wild guess...now thats a serious rare record.

Marc

Thank you Marc. Very nice it is too.

I was just wondering if it referred to the one on CRS, which is listed as George Johnson.

That's an extremely rare record.

Thanks

Sean

REGINAS ON DEB-LYN............HES A WILD ONE, was a COVER UP AT SCENVILLE A FEW YEARS AGO...........ONLY A COUPLE AND AN ACETATE I WAS TOLD.????.......best ever blind guess buy of mine.most end in the bin //////////ezzie

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.

They are the same apart from the Miko version doesn't have the geetar solo
