FAIR PLAY TO YOU..............KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK !

HAVE YOU BEEN TAKING SOME SORT OF " MIND BENDING DRUGS " SOOTY ? ........IF SO , CAN I HAVE SOME PLEASE .

Hey Kev, Johns not getting any stick really just the " soul fans " buying the records . Anyway I think he has some great records on the auctions . Which reminds me I once brought off him " MICKEY BUCKINS Silly girl " for £10 ................not in the auction and it was in 1983 still not bad though . Thank you John . Love Carl.

Must be Rodney off " fools and horses" remembering they sold " The lesser watch " for a load of dosh ..........ah it's becoming a little clearer now . Probably got one hell of a collection .

MY CONCLUSION on this weeks auction are in reverse order : - 3 : There are a lot of people with money to throw away . 2 : There are a lot of people with no knowledge about what they are bidding / buying . 1 : There are a lot of people with lots of money and knowledge BUT unfortunately got. . S. F . B . SYNDROME................. ..........SHIT FOR BRAINS Let them get on with it !

AKA .............FRANK FOSTER - MOVING FROM DETROIT .......................Dome MONSTER !

Hey Rod , you should have given your SALVADORS to Manny .... Then you could have retired for a few months and gone fishing !

YOU'VE GOT MORE CHANCE OF " SHITTING IN THE QUEENS HANDBAG " THAN GETTING THE SALVADORS FOR £ 1800...........................FACT ! ( and I mean that most sincerely folks .... Hughie Green Opportunity knocks ) .

ONE OF THE BEST RECORDS EVER MADE....................VAN McCOY WAS A GENIUS.

I remember buying the "Phyllis Briggs " off Dave for £ 50 the label though was'nt the RED / WHITE design . On the EVIL LEVEL it was right up there ! Had to send it back straight away ............be alright for the funky soul boys of today especially if they have a bad hearing problem ............COULD GO MASSIVE .

Are you sure it's Phylis Smith ? I know there was a Phylis Briggs. F/W acetate different take to ". I BEAR WITNESS " & THE DONTELLS whisper that to me acetate . Also found by Dave ....The Dynamic Sibblings I BEAR WITNESS / CAN'T TURN MY BACK ON YOU all found around the same time Simon . Just remembered " BERNIE WILLIAMS " on Frankford Wayne that was on Dave's sale list 85/86 period . Regards Carl

Hey Russ , you were spot on about one thing , I don't get enough attention at home out far too much fishing with Mr Spencer catching BUGGER ALL !

I'm not trying to stir anything up , that's what I heard in the main room , just thought to myself WHY ? With a ballroom rammed with people records like THE STARTONES billie fran , MAGNIFICENT 7 eastern , JOHNNY DYNAMITE minaret etc ...... Never get played there's loads of em' OLDIES in my head . Love Carl .

PLAY IT TWICE OR MAYBE THREE TIMES ............HOLLY ST . JAMES / CHRISTINE COOPER where .........the BIGGEST allniter in the world silly .

ALL RECORDS IN MINT- Condition unless stated . P M If interested KINGS GO FORTH - YOU'RE THE ONE ( mr c's ) m- £ 50 VEDA - WHAT IT'S ALL ABOUT ( west sounds ) ex ++ £ 180 THE LOVATIONS - HEAVEN TOLD ME SO ( cap city ) m - £ 50 KENARD - WHAT DID YOU GAIN BY THAT ? ( dore' ) 8t's press. m- Slight label fade £ 30 P & P special del £ 6: 50 / recorded £ 2 : 50 Thanks for looking .

Looks to me like a WEST COAST press which has that "white circle ABC " same as Eddie Bishop , Joey Gee etc.....slightly harder to obtain I would say , but hey what do I Know ...............F.ALL

NOT FORGETTING ...........Sam and Dave " lotta lovin' ( ALSTON ) 777 early light blue label , first played off a non credited acetate as THE SHORT KUTS around the mid 80ts turned out to be Sam and Dave.............C R A Z Y .

Came out on TWO different issues ! Blue label black text / Blue label dark blue text . Got both I'll try and scan them for you.....but don't hold your breath I'm a victim of the modern age .

I'M FAIRLY SURE HE'S ON DAY RELEASE FROM " RUTLAND LUNATIC ASYLUM " .

Playing the " Go Gate " copy and 80 's bootleg copy side by side there's slight difference on sound quality . The bootleg is slightly muffled and not as clear as the original press which is a very clear recording and sounds GREAT .

HAPPY DAYS TONY. HAPPY DAYS

Well said ! " Paul Donnelly "

Well said ! " Russoul 1 .

JUDGING BY THAT PHOTO THEY COULD HAVE BEEN RESIDENTS OF THE ISLE OF MAN AT SOME POINT!

Must have a few " Arctic " second pressings in my collection then ........... Oh. Bugger !
