yep, am talking about the mid 70s disco-ish dancer and not the wonderful but yet very different midtempo fingersnapper "my conscience" which happens to be on the same label but I guess 3-4 years earlier. sadly i don't have popsike access here in the office and google wasn't really that helpful.

was wondering, Lovelites "Get him off my conscience", you don't see it on sales list that often do you? how much would I have to pay for a copy in decent nick?

another version is Satin - Your love's got me - Shell

Superbs and Marvellos now sold. Anyone to make me a nice offer for the lovely and shit-rare italian issue of Marvin Smith? BTW, the sticker on the label of Marvin Smith is an italian "DJ Copy - not for sale" sticker, if this makes it a genuine DJ copy I'll leave to any potential buyer

I find these two a bit surprising. Vel-Vets shouldn't be more than say 150 should it? And I expected Bobby Reed to go for much more. I take it it was a vinyl issue or was it a much more common styrene issue?

flynny-san, any special reason why you've deleted the price in your posting?

VONETTES NOW SOLD...

weren't carvers or EMI discs played by "top djs" part and parcel of the scene since the 70s? as a matter of facts, one well known UK dj had a whole bunch of EMI discs when he came over to Germany in the late 80s/early 90s. reason was, he bought pretty expensive discs, cut his EMI discs and sold the original 45s on. another example, years ago Pete Smith had Rob Marriotts EMI disc dub of Butchs Diane Lewis cover up for sale. Think the story was, that part of a record deal was that Rob did get a tape recording of the original acetate. So, carvers are nothing new IMO. yet, due to exposure on and the distribution of information via the internet, lots of people think this is something rather recent.

just 3-4 weeks I sold it on here for 100 quid...

not really correct I'm afraid, melody is the same as "this diamond ring".

Of course it's not the best moment in soul music, of course it's not Marsha Gee singing (Could be even a white girl?), of course it's not Marsha Gee or the real singer on the picture cover but it's one hell of a catchy tune. period. Even if some don't like it now I'm sure everyone danced to it here and there ...

this new peanut duck single isn't that new I'm afraid, it's been out for quite some time now. think it's from Spain. Anyway, sadly on the flipside it hasn't got the instrumental but a nice popcorn-ish track called "shimpanzee" by count yates. Speaking of the peanut duck instrumental (wasn't it called "dance track"?), has anyone a nice clean mp3 of it for me? TIA benji

that's what i thought too! "dont send me away" came out in 1981 or was it 1982? anyway, that's more than 25 years ago and he still got that voice, fantastic!

believe it or not, I even sell records to my wife but basically I tend to sell records much cheaper to friends than to anybody else. on the other hand when a friend offers me a record way cheaper than its value who am i to argue with a friend??

LIST UPDATED (SEE VERY FIRST POSTING)

ok, one last bump then it's either back into the collection or straight to ebay for these little beauties. can't believe nobody wants them, all below current rates/book prices, some even well below! TRADES WELCOME!

thanks David, the cheque's in the post BTW, pictures now added ...

SOME PRICES REDUCED AND SOLD ITEMS REMOVED. ANY QUESTIONS FEEL FREE TO ASK. SEE OTHER POSTING FOR SOUND CLIPS ...

UPDATED!

had a copy for sale until last night. was 80 quid, a steal!

Soundfile for Superbs "I was blind" added, pictures will be added once I sorted out my scanner problems...

UPDATED...

George Hughley and Al Hudson on hold. Everything else still available!

Maybe worth mentioning "lies" is also on the "The Joneses" album on Epic. IMO it's a nice track but inferior to "Who loves you"..
