I thought he was throwing an eppy.

Top idea I.M.O. Too many people selling stuff and then adding on to the bottom of their thread. Ends up with pages of stuff that have either sold or aren't of interest being dragged back up to the top of the forum.

I received some 45s in a 9" Pizza box once - they had kindly left some cheese in it as well.

Got Nina Simones superior version for £15 including P&P if you want a copy....

It's not the Aretha Franklin "Save Me" one is it?

What a fantastic off topic rant. Bravo Sir!

£150 is a bit high I.M.O. £100 - £125 tops. I'm only willing to pay £75 for one though, as I don't think its anywhere near as rare as people seem to think.

Brought a handfull of copies back from the U.S. for the last couple of years and they tend to fly out at £30 a pop. Shouldn't be too difficult. some are misspressed and have "What I Say" on both sides

Massively overpriced... by about 20x

This is what happens when the bin-men can't get round due to the snow....

Got this by the Four Tops on Argentinian Tamla Motown

Nice mock up sleeve.

I don't know - the bit where they are lezzing it up looks interesting...

Definately versions with and without girly backing.

are you sure you want it for that particular track???

Came out on an earlier 45 - flip to "The World is Rated 'X' " or some such nonesense... Not sure if its the correct mix though.

Been listening to Hoss?

wouldn't happen to be a London Cabbie would he?

Absolutely 100% issued due to Northern scene demand. If you look around on the net you should be able to find a copy of the sleeve that tells the records story, which went out with the promo copies.

It says OXO on the side of buses, doesn't mean they serve it on board. 1965 is the publishing date - ie the year the tune was written and submitted for future royalties - not the year the record was made or even recorded.

I'm going to scrap a knackered old Fiesta, do I send Henry Ford a fiver?

How many demo copies are pressed of a 45? Exactly how many Radio stations were operating in the U.S. at the time? Who else would have received promo's? 1000 copies sounds a lot to me - wouldn't they try it on the local market before commiting to a national push? - this was an unknown artist, not a Marvin Gaye or Stevie Wonder. Both 'known' copies came from people related to Motown in a roundabout way - and no copies have been found 'in the wild', which surely points to any addition copies pressed being destroyed?

Used to play it at "Brighton Beach" in the late 90s, as an alternative to the Timebox. You used to be able to pick it up out of Goldmine/Beatin Rhythm for three quid a pop.

Had some offers on this - will let the successful buyer know after 8pm tonight - up until then it's still open for offers.

Got another one for sale... Come on, don't be shy folks.
