Ian Seaman

i was there at Wigan in 75, it was fantastic even though we found out later he was really ill !!! His voice was superb and although he didn't dance as much as he normally did it will stick with me forever. Funny having just listened to his story on R2 in the last few weeks it seems certain he came to the UK as he was skint and need a quick tour to pay for his gear and young girl problems (sounds just like me in them days ) Considering how much money he squandered back then on drugs/alcohol/women it is amazing he was still alive in the 70,s !! I don't go and see many live acts anymore and believe me after JW there is NO point !!!!!! Ian.

Swaps wanted for any of above too, Roger Hatcher - Clydie King - Soft & Gentle etc Cheers, Ian.

MS is in the 2006 price guide at £40 but thought it had gone up as i was offered £120 for it 3 weeks ago !!! Ta for rest Pete, thought Marvin gaye worth £300 Ian.

Still looking for a playable copy of RH !! Cheers, Ian.

blimey 24 hours later and no replys on values

any ideas, it,s going to Skeggy to be sold by the sea but not sure what it,s worth ?? 1966 UK issue with upside down matrix and anti slip grooves, would think the only uk press anyway ?? Also Four perfections M- issue ? Dana Valery WDJ - vg+(Red) ? Don Ray - Born a loser YDJ - ex Marvin Gaye - love starved heart - Tamla pic sleeve - M-/M- All off to Skeggy friday !! unless................. Cheers, Ian.

See this in boxes at £50 now Kev !!!

It,s a real one all in the way the No,s are written, if the 2 has a loop in it and the 2 sixes look like sixes then it,s the boot, if the No 2 has NO loop and the sixes look like a b then it,s real there is no other markings on it, was talking to JM last night over a beer and this came up again, these were done same time as Eddie Regan by KR , they are very close and most copys will look faded as originals because they were made to look that way. Ian.

Possibly Nick as it did say you played it , only looked at playlists and Middleton sat 9th Sept came up, didn't look which year , shame i didn't clock the date - DOH still a great tune and wants playing a lot more !! Ian.

i see it was played at Middleton last sat !! How much does the Gator copy fetch them Pete ?? Ian.

Delorise Berry - No other girl. came out twice on Cottilion and Gator. Have been racking my brain to remember where i heard it 1st, Wigan springs to mind, possibly RS ?? or even a RW spin Anyway how often do you see it around for sale or even on playlists anymore ?? has it become too unpopular or has it just gone really hard to find with all copies tucked up for the crunch Must say it,s one of my all time fave oldies, anyone else like it out there ?? or got one ( i have a copy on Gator , not for sale tho !) will put a scan up soon. Ian.

I have seen the 77 lookalike boot sell for £175 last year, it is a very rare bootleg but i reckon it sells to go in playboxes as an original , once it,s spinning at 45 rpm it is probably hard to tell the difference The 2 X's on some of the copys was put there to make it look like a kosher radio station copy, a common ploy in this game Ian.

Doesn't have to be a minter , as long as it plays out loud cheap as chips would be nice.... credit crunch etc etc etc pm me ta, Ian.

you,d have more luck finding a real one Not seen one for many years (even got one myself somewhere in the loft - not for sale tho) Ian.
