Yeah thats right mate, a lot of top DJ's did it for next to nothing because they knew we were running the club for the right reasons which says a lot to me - its not always about money. The right people in a room enjoying quality music together

Personally I'm trying to limit my exposure to Eddie Parker - I'm gone which is on the verge of becoming overplayed for me and I'd hate to get fed up of it

Was just gonna post the same thing - "DJ's" please take note!!!!!!

The first lot are still easily available so I'll list them at £6 each or £30 for the lot (plus actual cost of postage) All are M- 005 Danny Cobus / Chico & Buddy 008 Otis Redding / Barbara & The Browns 018 Willie Bollinger / Willie Walker 021 Paramount Four / James Carpenter 022 JT Rhythm / OC Tolbert 025 Pat Hunt / Mamie Perry SOLD Now a couple not so easy: 007 Luther Ingram / Chet "Poison" Ivey - the only copy I can see for sale is on discogs @ £65 002 Pretenders / John Edwards - can't find any copies of this for sale but theres one on popsike that went for £50 in 2014 SOLD - it went for £50 So Ive no idea how to price these last two so anyone interested make me an offer Cheers

Beat me to it.....

So true Back on topic - 4 grand for a G+ cracked record??? What planet is this bloke from??

Crikey what would you give to have been there that night? RIP Eddie, another one gone.........

I only mention if its a messy one

Thats like looking in my first record box in 1976....

I agree, thats what you can see happening and the main problem with all this

Thats weird, that first link takes me to my ebay summary........

I wonder how many of the returnees of the last 15 years or so who are so entrenched in the mid 70s ever bother to read stuff like this?? Don't think Ive ever read threads along these lines where many people have commented about "realising how much good music they missed, it must have been great" etc

Would love to say I was there but didn't start going until about 6 months later...

We'll never know - no one ever admits to it on these threads

Thanks chaps

Anyone know off hand the cost of one 45 UK to Australia?

Page 1 here I come...

I've no doubt she's a lovely girl and I've no wish to slag her or anyone else off but to quote Kev Roberts in an advert for the cd, you can "Meet Levanna Mclean this Saturday at the Kings Hall. She'll be chatting about her new TV advertised album" A "personal appearance" no less - celebrity culture infiltrates the northern scene. I don't care if it attracts young uns in their thousands, thats not what i signed up for, so for that reason......... I'm out

"Rare shit" = I've never heard this before

I'll bring it round Sat night mate

Good write up mate, sums up the sad state of things nicely

Yeah I don't know either Who buys this sh!t??? Has anyone ever come out and try to justify it?

Simmo from Notts is on one of the smaller photos, known him for many years but didn't realise this until a few months ago

When this argument comes up people always talk about new collectors coming in to take up the slack as it were, sure some will but nowhere near the numbers disappearing as the older ones inevitably stop and/or die. The scene is on a high at the moment numbers wise but what is the average age of attendees now? It must be heading towards 60 - another 10 years and what will things be looking like? Less collectors = less demand = lower prices..................... absolutely inevitable. (Just realised my post is more or less exactly the same as Mellorfuls above )

Painful....
