Hi, I've put a small bunch of records on ebay. All sorts of stuff, Jazz Funk, Northern, R&B, Crossover, whatever. low start prices and no reserves! Please click here THE FAMILY - NATION TIME/FAMILY AFFAIR - NORTH BAY FRANKIE VANCE - DO YOU HEAR ME/CAN'T BREAK THE HABIT - REVUE D/J CHARLIE McCLENDON & THE MAGNIFICENTS - PUT ME DOWN EASY - L REV THE EXCEPTIONAL 3 - UNLUCKY GIRL/WHAT ABOUT ME - WAY OUT (local label befor GRT, better mix!) EDDIE HOLMAN - NIGHT TO REMEMBER/TIME WILL - SALSOUL JOE TEX - DONT PLAY - CHECKER (GREAT R& GENE PITNEY - SHE's A HEARTBREAKER - GERMAN MUSICOR SUGAR PIE DE SANTO - SLIP IN MULES/MR & MRS - CHECKER (2 COPIES) WILLIE MABON - GOT TO HAVE/WHY DID IT HAPPEN TO ME (R&B DOUBLESIDER)

I think it's a stock copy too. A white demo should "promotional copy" printed in small letters on the right side. Though I'm not too sure because of its white label, what colour are the other Sport issues in? Blue?

I've been thinking about replacing my white sleeves with brown original 60s sleeves for quite some time, they are the next best thing to original company sleeves. But I do think your price is way OTT. 12 quid for 25 brown paper sleeves? Even for my rather small collection I'd have to spend over 500 quid just for sleeves

Yes, I'd say Butch (or anyone else in this matter) taking only 25 discs with him is showing disrespect to the punters. But if one brings only a handful of records because he/she is either confident or arrogant is another thing (I don't want to indicate Butch might be the latter!). Speaking of Butch's "ryanair" box at the first Bamberg weekender: I clearly remember he had a whole rucksack of discs with him (carried them all around the whole night) so he definitely had more than 25 records didn't he?

Even keeping in mind that it's rather "difficult" to take a 100 count box as hand luggage when traveling abroad, taking only a 25 count box with you smells of disrespecting the punters. I'd never do that. Looks like there's a thin line between self confidence and arrogance.

Is this a white demo? If it is, I guess it's much rarer than people think. Actually I've never seen or heard of a white demo apart from my own...

FINAL BUMP, ENDING WITH THE NEXT 9 HOURS...

Bump! Ending within the next 24 hours...

When we booked Keb for a soul/funk weekend overe here in Munich ten years ago he brought one of them 150 count double-row boxes with him. one row soul the other row funk 45s. and that was one hell of a hot box! Gem after gem, I almost drooled over the soul row I asked him why he wasn't collecting any more and he told me after having been forced to sell two pretty decent collections over the years he couldn't been arsed any longer

well, unfortunately deal fell through in the end so am still after am issue copy. willing to pay 30 quid. anyone?

Try www.puresoul.de for a copy (ID "thorsten wegner" on here), he had a copy in his sales box last saturday.

Early morning bump

My wife had a (belated) spring cleaning and asked me to put the following list of 45s up here. All sorts of highly collectable quality soul releases from the 60s to 2K. Just killers, no fillers! (but also no Northern I'm afraid). All priced to sell (we hope!). All prices plus post. Condition EX or better unless stated. Payment either Paypal (no extra fees) or cash.
