Just because people don't respond it doesn't mean its not known. Its had spins over the years in many different places as others have said. There are lots of this type of record, but the point in my previous post was that the 45 I was referring to was well known and even booted due to its popularity in the late 70's. When a disc such as this is described as a "semi known" I think the BS has gone a bit to far. Like I say give your opinion if you think its good "lovely crossover", "nice early northern" etc etc no problem.

Nice one Mal. There was one on here just last week I think which described a certain record as "semi known" and "right for todays DJ" or words to that effect. I nearly choked on my fecking cornflakes, it was hugely popular sound mid - late 70's Wigan and was booted to meet demand !! You can still buy the boot for a couple of quid or so. Now I don't mind someone giving their opinion of a record like "nice uptempo northern" or such, but when the record is a well known oldie.......come on. What's next Sam Williams and the Tomangos as the latest "new discoveries just ripe for today" ?

Yes, exactly as I thought.

Think Andy Whitmore has a copy as I seem to recall he put it on tape for me way back when.

Yes I saw that one Steve which is why I asked. Several have gone though using the S1 and S 22 and were stated originals and one listing made reference to a warehouse find. Then I saw the one you flag up and thought ....mmm...that matrix is more like it, I've never seen it before and the record is a bit more worn...probably an original. I was just wondering if anyone who had bought the 45 from the Las Vegas guy could check their run out grooves ? Someone on here must have bought one over the years I'm sure.

Thought I'd try this again Anyone ??

Tried that. I would say the 45 played better, but was left with 'grey grooves' and some residue I couldn't get rid of.

Sent you a PM Sean

I am indeed young man and will be attending. Do we need to pre-book ? Andy

When is the next one Sean ? I was away on business for the last one. Andy

OK so we all know that this 45 has been booted or reissued by the group depending on the blurb you agree with and of course they are available in every colour of vinyl via the Las Vegas seller in the US. However, I noticed that a few have gone through Evilbay recently selling for big money and the descriptions referencing originals with a machine stamped matrix 45-01 S-1 and also mentioning a warehouse find in Tx. These were not sold by the usual seller in LV. Can anyone confirm the validity of this matrix information ? Thanks

I think from memory the 45 is mentioned in Shelly Garrets book....' The Unbelievable and True Story Behind Shelly Garrett's Beauty Shop'. From memory tho' so could be wrong

If anyone has a copy for sale please let me know. Happy to make offer or PM price and condition - easy either way. Cheers Andy

Both good tracks again, but "That's what you mean.." is the best for me. This should be bigger than the first 45 I think. Just waiting for the box from Daptone to drop thru the door Keep 'em comin' fella

Wiki says that Zuma was one of major Bill's labels. Like I said previously he will release anything by anyone at random and several different artist will do the same song. So probably not a boot...?
