Hehe, I think I get the picture But still wouldn't mind a soundfile, there's nothing in Refosoul. Someone?

As my previous request for a sound clip failed maybe this one here is more succesful Anyone with an audio clip of Derek Christien - Suddenly there's a valley? TIA Benji

nope, don't know who won it.

It's a white demo, see pic. Was overbid on Ebay, it went for about 7 quid. That teaches me to be so tight

Add: German Decca Demo (I've seen one) and probably issue as well (tho I have to see one to confirm that)

OK, will PM you with scans/audio files once I found the time to do them...

Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately it's not in M- condition, conservative VG+/VG++ more likely. Can send scans and audio files within the next few days if anybody's interested in buying it??

What are your views on The M.B.S. - Another day - B-Jet? Certainly not ultra rare but nonetheless not a record that is around in quantity IMO...

Lovely gallery. I take it there are very hard to find because the probably sold by the handful only? I recently started again to collect german soul 45s and I discover releases that are new to me almost every day. How many 60s/Northern Soul 45s do you think were released down under?

You're playing Wham 45s at venues? What's the most popular one "wake me up before you go-go"? Seriously, playing a vinyl record gives a haptic experience you just don't get from CDs. Period.

Bump! Anyone?

Value needed for: The O'Kaysions - Girl watcher - Stateside UK green/white demo. I guess about 40-50 quid depending on condition, what do you guys reckon? TIA Benji

Well, technically yes, a bootleg. But I might get away with it if I promise I'll never ever play the sleeve? And I'll keep it at home if I'll ever dj at an OSO event (Original Sleeve Only)

Hm, well, yes, it's my site But the scan on my site is in far too low quality. I used to have the picture sleeve many years ago but didn't scan/colourcopy it when I sold it and now I have a sleeveless copy that begs me to be put into a nice picture sleeve.

I seem to recall that the bootleg of Jackie Day was on a small hole "UK style" 45?

Why didn't you asked that DJ? And what's even more important, who was he?

Desperately needed to accompany my sleeveless 45: Good quality scan (300 dpi or better) of the german picture sleeve of Jerry Naylor - City lights on Capitol. Anyone? TIA

Re-post from last week, now reduced as previous price seemed to be too high: For Sale: The Metros - Since I found my baby - RCA BLACK ISSUE VG++/EX- condition, plays really fine. Paypal only. 140 120 GBP including insured post in Europe and Paypal fees. Please PM for details. TIA Benji

maybe worth mentioning that these aren't different mixes they are different recordings (to my ears at least). The Blackwell take has strings in the backing during the intro and an all around fuller arrangement. the Justis take sounds "emptier"

the wrong version of TMP is the flipside to "blue autumn" on the german 45 so I assume it's the wrong version on the album as well.

yes the "Justis" arrangement Funny thing is, I bought the UK issue as part of a collection two years ago. I never actually played it assuming it would be the same version as the german issue. A friend of mine used to play it off the german issue for years and I never really liked. Last night I played the UK issue for the first time since I bought it. It didn't really blow me away but I can understand its Northern appeal now, nice record.
