still remember the feeling
I disagree. It's a nice version. But pretty obvious the song is not in his favourite vocal pitch if you know what I mean. It just doesn' t really suit him.

Value needed: Bill Brown - Bip bam - Accent 45
Proven rarity on Accent's sub-label Brownstone. But haven't found any document sale for a copy on Accent. Anyone any idea of value for an Accent 45? Many thanks!

Listen to me the esquires
First heard "listen to me" when Guy Hennigan played it on a Great Yarmouth weekender radio show, 90/91-ish. Covered as by the "Flights of Fantasy". Took me years to find out to what it was the b-side....

After buying thousands of records from all over the world I have to say that the worst graders are UK sellers. Period. Especially Northern Soul sellers.

Billy Ocean red light, Northern soul?
As mentioned before this is a classic on the scooter scene. It's been a huge record at least since my first scooter run in 1989. Infact, along Melba Moore's Magic Touch this is a "in case of empty dancefloor break the glass and play this" type of record. Can we move on to another record please?

Has this ever been played out? Is it known?
a couple of copies sold on Discogs since 2018. Last few copies M- indicating a new old stock find. Going by the number of people looking for it on Discogs, 210, it's not unknown. But no idea to which scene it is not unknown. Soul collectors, Garage collectors? I think it's just average. Not allnighter material IMO. But maybe the YT doesn't do it any justice. I could imagine it sounds much better played out loud at a dance.

Billy Ocean red light, Northern soul?
No it isnt a soul record. Just a crap pop record that happens to have the right beat and, to make it worse, a haunting chorus. I loathe it.

A "flawless" copy went for 200 quid on Discogs in Sep 20. So JM's achieved price is not that far off.

Guilty Northern soul pleasure.
Many tunes mentioned I really like. But. Skiing in the snow. How bad is that lyric-wise? I mean, we're talking about soul music. Life. Love. Emotion. And an all-black-group is singing about "Gotta get my gear out ready for a winter spill"?

anyone please?

Vondells - Hey Girl & Airtown ?'s
I too guess they were. Though they don't sound obviously white do they? Discogs lists three releases on Airtown, the other two are Garage.

JMAuction - 26/05/2021 - Results!
Johnny Maestro sure one of the most expensive beat ballads. Fantastic tune. And the only one I'd buy from this weeks JM auctions. All the other records I'd leave for somebody else to buy. Price for the Tymes mispress seems pretty low, considering how rare it is. Ok, it's not traditional northern or crossover or whatever is en vogue at the moment.

No mask in sight and I see some folks not keeping distance. Very irresponsible.
