@ 25 Euros in my sales box, no takers yet...

There was one original Detroit acetate supposed to exist. Marc Hi Pete, Sam Ward and Ideals scans were taken from bootlegs.

Last time I heard that played out was when Keb Darge played it in Hamburg last year. So there seem to be two acetates then. For your home entertainment I strongly recommend the old Inferno Detroit A Go Go compilation...although cut (mainly?) off bootlegs this great compilation brings them all to you (incl. Down In The Dumps). Marc

Could imagine the Grapevine reissue being harder then the Lovelite original 45 LOL

Joe Dunlop had one on is last list at 500 UKP. Great 45, paid already 300 UKP more then ten years ago for it.

Great 45 indeed, have seen it as high as 500 UKP (years ago ) and as down as 150 UKP (recently). Styrene only.

really sorry to hear this Keith, always has been a pleasure to do business with you. Hope things will work out fine for you, Marc

nate nelson used to be in one group with none other than Tommy Hunt by the way...the flamingos

Thanks Steve

Out of curiousity , what`s a WD worth ?

Here´s what`s left....reduced drastically...

Hi Dave, fair point. As I said, a good read the way it is. Marc

Hi Mark, hope all is fine, I have my second, my first was in fact off center. Sold that in 95 to Tim Brown

...a come on, after the fourth Guiness you will laugh about it (too), after the fifth Guiness you will already have forgotten about it and after the sixth you will sell me your copy cheap that until then you will hopefully have obtained...that´s the way we always do it at the Hip City to get hold of Quality Rare Soul discs, noone told you yet ?

This is in my book one of the most worthwhile soul fanzines ever. it has been published for so long now, derek deserves the highest respect for his hard labor and continuity Next to that it has had and still has up to this day the best record reviews and informations any self-respecting soul collector could ask for (well, excluding maybe the two or three reviews I was honoured to have been asked to add.. ). What a fountain of inspiration and knowledge it had become overthe years...anyone remember those great reviews by the Driveller, Carl Fortnum and later Dave Flynn ? Beside that I just received "That Beat" courtesy of Dave Moore/USA which is also a very nice effort and a good read....only thing missing in it are reviews of rare records....which leads to another well flavoured zine of mine, the sadly dead Rare Soul Review by Tim Brown....now that agian was a very good read...and if you did not like reading (it) you could at least get totally shaky and nervous by looking at scans of records most of us won`t have the chance to at least hold in there hands once

...and Keith Williams has one up for grabs right now at 150 UKP

"Don`t Worry About Dancing" great tune. I still believe it is none other than Ray Agee singing this great 45. You can very easily detect that especially by hearing the (deep-er)flipside. We had a discussion about this and the other releases on Kick Off on the raresoulforum a while ago. Got mine quite reasonably priced but then again I paid quite a big sum for the Carl Underwood tune...such is life. The other worthwhile tune on Kick Off is by Nora Roberts "I Just Flip"...a very nice R&Bish doublesider...will take that one with me to the Hideaway in October

hi, I have send you a pm

And again I second you, BUT how many VG+ copies do get offered graded EX+ or without mentioning the condition at all ? Shifty next to others of course springs to my mind as a very good example, always strict on grading and always using the % off the mint price
