I've got the original acetate which poke used to play at Cleethorpes ......... vocal / inst . JM auctioned the Vocal a few years back .

The "TOSSERS " who are behind all these pressings , bootlegs call it what you want shit need a good KICKIN' !

Benji well spotted ! You have a valid point , there are loads of different ways of finding out prices . If your serious about collecting expensive records you should know the prices . Seems Adydj is just telling us what he has in his collection.......very very boring reading !

Don't want to ruin the sale but isn't that a pressing ?

For sale : LUTHER INGRAM - IF IT'S ALL THE SAME TO YOU BABE ( HIB ) m- £ 70 non original KINGS GO FORTH - YOU'RE THE ONE ( MR Cs ) m - £ 60 SOLD ERMA FRANKLIN - I GET THE SWEETEST FEELING ( BRUNSWICK demo ) m - £ 90 postage £ 2 : 50 Thanks , Carl .

" I doubt a better copy EXISTS ........😂😂😂😂

Steve Smith had TWO white label hand written test pressings . I did some trades with him for one , think thats the one Manny had ? Can definitely remember the slow side had a imprint of a " Chancellor " label where the label had been stuck to it over the years . I actually took the copy to Val in the States , he didn't have it at the time . Said he wanted the v- tone record not the test . Wonder who ended up with my old copy ?

KEN COX ( Dawn promotions ) used to operate out of his own home think it was 189 Casterton rd how I know ? Use to live opposite and pop over at school lunch time 79/80 his records were at the rear of the house . I got to know Ken quite well over the next few years , he was a great guy always interested what records you were buying etc. Remember him having small quantities of things ........ Gil Branding , Billy Hambrick , Gene Woodbury all for £8 each and Larry Houston and King Tutt for a mighty £ 10 each far too much for me at the time . He also had most of the GRAPEVINE label run . Think most of the above came from " SOUL BOWL " never the less HAPPY DAYS ! Then he moved all the records to his new premises at St. Mary's St ....... two doors down from Stamford Music shop ( which is still in business today ) think Ken now lives in Thailand best of luck to him ...........

The Groovers was covered up as EDDIE HOLLAND as I remember ( Queens hall 91/ 92 )

Ady DJ , could I recommend the purchase of a John Manship " current " price guide it may help in your " Northern soul quest " .

How many copies do you want Ady ....... ONE or THREE ? ??

As someone once said .............THERE ARE OLD BOOTLEGS AND THERE ARE BOLD BOOTLEGS , BUT THERE ARE NO OLD BOLD BOOTLEGS .................or was that statement about stuntmen .......anyway l must take some more medication now .

Wrong colour Pink Dobber

Bloody confusing , there must have been more promoters at the Fleet in the 8ts than l can remember . Well done Chalky ......... Keep em coming .

There's nothing wrong with this thread just your comment anything to do with the TERI DE label is far more interesting than some of the crap on this site !

I don't know the exact dates but I'm sure Brian Rae and Tony Clayton were running the allnighter at some point mid eighties because l first started D jing there , gentleman Rob Smith boxed for my corner and they let me do a spot in the main room playing newer sixties sounds ..........Little John ( Martay ) , Gwen Davis ( SS7 ) , Betty Turner ( Cresent ) Soul Bros Inc ( Golden eye ) , Ron Baxter ( Ole 9 ) mostly Stafford sounds which were recent new tunes , well within a year or two ( which were new to the Fleet at the time ) apart from the sixties newies nighter some years before . Which I thought was excellent but didn't really work with the punters . It must have been 86 ish deffo before Jon and Danny took over , things really did start to take off then . Will sort out some play lists and get some top tens together . I do remember the 10 the anniversary that was a FANTASTIC night there one of the best nighters I've every been to .

Got most of them from the Pound shop before it took off?

Something to do with whats in the run out grooves , funny little stamps and things ?

A very very long shot , did you ever sell the Buster and James ? Would really like to know because I'm after one . Many thanks Carl .
