Boot questions answered above. Sure, I will scan mine later if I'm not still working - if not tomorrow mate Cheers Richard

Mine was a classic minter Soul Bowl purchase at about £3 I think Cheers Richard

c.£600 is the price I have seen it go for more than once - hence the post Cheers Richard

Hi Everyone What's a M- copy of Connie Clark - My Sugar Baby (Joker) worth these days please? Have seen it go for decent prices lately on a couple of the well-known main dealer auctions Cheers Richard

Hi everyone Looking for a nice copy of Marisa Gatti - Love's What You Want (Poo Pan 101) please. Thread locked but if you can help out please just PM me Cheers Richard

Hi Chalky eBay scan below - on styrene Cheers Richard

Searched for that thread but couldn't find it - anyone point me in the right direction please? Would be good to see a pic The only 45 I have on Meadowbrook is the Jan Foreman - scan below - the song's a bit cheesy but I love it Cheers Richard

Dave - if you get more than one offer can I have the second one please Cheers Richard

Cheers guys Anyone able to post up sound files of the Linda Rae 45s please? Cheers Richard

Brilliant stuff guys - glad I revived this thread Keep 'em coming Cheers Richard

I have an old Billboard magazine ad for Ernstrat Enterprises showing several labels - including Meadowbrook - and pics of some of the artists from the group of labels - Royal Playboys, Linda Rae, Dynamics etc. Any more info much appreciated Cheers Richard

Cheers guys Here are the details I have to hand: Linda Rae - Learn About Love/Gimmie Jimmie (Meadowbrook 1001) Linda Rae - I Don't See My Baby/I'll Always Remember (Meadowbrook 5412) Chico Holiday - Follow The Sun/Liza Jane (Meadowbrook - no catalogue number only ZTSC 125708) Jan Foreman - Your Last Chance/Whenever I'm Without You (Meadowbrook 7221) Also have details on Sonny Meadow - 'Sometimes I Smile' on Meadowbrook 101 - green label like Chico Holiday but the font on the title is different - is this the same label? Cheers Richard

Manship's Guide rates the issue as higher by 50 quid That said - a quick scan of Popsike looks like the DJ goes for more - but maybe just less issues on there Sorry - that probably wasn't much help Cheers Richard

If the news is true Matt this is a huge loss A musical giant - such a distinctive voice - a true legend R.I.P

Nice one Mike - I'll remember to look out for your top tips next time Cheers Richard

Yes, an intro would be good form More importantly though, for a valuable record I think any seller wishing to advertise on here should also be posting on here (not on YouTube), or explicitly offering to provide potential buyers with: An accurate description of the condition of the recordScans/photos of the labels - both sidesQuality sound files - both sides Without the above I just can't take this kind of sales pitch seriously I'm afraid Cheers Richard

Manship Guide has Sandy Hollis issue at £200 and the WDJ at £250. That said on JM's website the demo is there at £200. Would have thought maybe £100 - £150 for an issue? The flip "Tables Will Turn" is even better I reckon - a really sophisticated piece of soul music that builds, and builds ... Sandy Hollis - Tables Will Turn (Big Wheel) Pitch it as a double-sider mate Cheers Richard

Anyone got a complete listing for Meadowbrook records please? Any other information on label, artists etc. greatly appreciated Cheers Richard

Just in case anyone is interested - and to close the loop on the thread - I went with the Jazzman sleeves: Green Inner Paper Sleeve - described as "Archival quality olive green paper sleeves of superior quality. Thick, smooth and more robust - probably the best paper inner sleeves money can buy. These are the ONLY sleeves worthy of storing your top rares!!! Country: USA." White Card Outer Sleeve - described as "These thick card outer sleeves are essential for the serious collector who wants to keep his 45s in top shape. Fitting snugly over your colour paper inner sleeves, they'll give extra protection to your rare records and give them durability for years to come. Complete with centre hole and open tab for easy access. Country: UK". Plus I'm going to go for archive quality Mylar sleeves for discs in company bags. As far as Jazzman went - the service was excellent. Quick delivery, really clear communications, and I managed to negotiate a very decent deal due to the 'bulk buy' Definitely recommended!! Cheers Richard

Thanks - will PM you Cheers Richard

Thought I would try and revive this thread as it didn't get very far last time C'mon guys - let's have your tips and recommendations Cheers Richard

Anyone help me out please? Just PM me Cheers Richard

The worst record I have consciously paid good money for is this one Probably obvious to most on here why I did it Not my scan, but my record if you get my drift Cheers Richard

Hi all I'm looking for a white PROMOTIONAL COPY of Sue & Mel - We Started This Thing Together (Star-Track 102) please. Preferably in M- condition. Thread locked but if you can help me out then please just send me a PM Cheers Richard

Hi Chalky - what's the story there then? Does it mean IRFDAN was actually recorded by JB but not released - or does it suggest a release ? Cheers Richard
