It's got to be around £400 - £500 now I would think. Jordi

It's off his "Brothers and Sisters" LP (although I think there is a release of the lp without this on), and on a 45 on Alston records. Get the issue with "Silence that you keep" on the flip. It should be about £60 - £80. Jordi

Should just about get you half a tank full if you sell these. Jordi

About £400, check out Adam Leaver, George Mahood etc on the funk forum, someone might have one for sale. Jordi

I'm sure it would have been Gareth Donovan who played it at Essence. Top man, top taste. Jordi

My partner is taking me for a birthday treat to Barcelona this weekend , so I was wondering if any of you Spanish soul brothers and sisters know of anything going on. ( A couple of tips on good restaurants, not too expensive though, would be useful also!) We are staying near the top of Las Ramblas. Thanks for any advice. Best...Jordi

Anyone got one of these so I can help a mate out? Cheers. Jordi

There's also the nice funky crossover tune backed with a sweet soul tune by Errol Gaye and the Imaginations. Steeltown Cleveland 92539/40 Errol Gaye & the Imaginations "Love And Affection/ You Don't Want My Love". Jordi

Sisters Love - "Give me your love" also came out on this label I believe, which seems strange as the label was late 70's I think and I didn't know that the Sisters Love track was deemed bootable back then. Jordi

I never realised how good the flip of Kelly is until fairly recently. Top notch dancefloor funky mayhem with the busiest bass line I've heard in an age. 2 tunes for price of one. Jordi

Utterly monstrous tune, I wish I had a spare £1200+ and access to one of the couple of known copies. Jordi

I've always said that one day this will be a big tune. Looks like it's on it's way. Jordi

I was just about to type the same as you Nev. Great tune, great price! The flip is a f**kin awesome slab of an instrumental funk bomb as a bonus! Jordi

Quite possibly their finest record! Jordi

I was thinking the same SJay, and also Sharon Paige and Oscar Weathers. Jordi

That was last week wasn't it?, think it was £47. Jordi

I've heard it described by an American as mid tempo smooth funk, which is a pretty good description. Jordi

PM'd you Hermann. Jordi

Wow!! this has jumped in price, I didn't realise it was going for this much. Loverly little tune though! Jordi

I've got to agree with you here Sunnysoul, you wouldn't wish an accident like Curtis' on your worst enemy let alone one of the most gentle, sensitive, thoughtful, peaceful, intelligent and well sussed guys in the history of the music industry. If presidents and leaders of nations had a fraction of the qualities that Curtis had, the world would surely be a safer, better place. As for Imberboys comments, I think you're talking shite. "I, like many, was an aspiring rock star and the lead singer in a band called "The Gyroscopic Nomads" we recorded three records, "Roll on Doomsday", "Fire Bug" and "Lounging round in Battersea", no fooker gives a toss about our band splitting up and only ever selling one record to my Aunty Pat, who didn't even have a record player!" You're right, nobodies bothered about your ROCK band that never made it, this is a soul site, but there are are a lot of us that are bothered about the fact that the criminally unrecognised and unrewarded soul artists such as Ann Sexton etc never got the recognition they deserved. "Most of the booh hoo hoo stories you hear are of from one hit wonders who never cut another track or drug addled artists who sang songs that where served to them on a plate, there are millions of great singers out there who are waiting tables." You don't hear "Boo Hoo" stories from the artists. There will be thousands of stories of injustice, rip offs, lack of exposure, airplay and distribution of fantastic music, but you don't hear the artists moaning about it. It's only the soul fans who have for the last 40 years appreciated the efforts of these artists, who are talking about it. The artists and producers have known only too well that shit inferior rock and pop artists have always been higher up in the pecking order when it comes to making a living off the music, and yes there might be loads of great singers waiting tables, but to me, that is a crying shame. There's a lot more to soul than just the music, or your scooter. Jordi

I was told by a guy who bought one that Craig Moerer was selling these for $8 very recently. None there now though. Jordi

Good luck Max, where am I going to get my card covers , boxes and stylii from now? It's a shame to see an old style record shop close down, there aren't many left and when you walk into a totally soulless, corporate HMV or Vigin megastore, you remember how great small indie record shops actually were/are. Just another sad sign of the times. See ya out and about Max. Best...Jordi

I've played it out a few times Steve and always had guys asking what it was. It's a great record. Jordi

"Loving you" and "My love" Jordi

Top, Top tune that one and it needs playing out. Jordi
