You know that thread the other day about what's your favourite tailor made record? Well I had some "reissues" for sale yesterday, (mel britt, terry callier, athens rogues, jan jones, bud harper etc) and I had one copy of the Four Vandals - Wrong side of town. I'm not lying to you know when I say I had six calls for it. I was shocked.

It's my only income. When it gets really desperate I dip into my reggae collection and sell some of those.

I'll do it for you Stuart

In the last 24 hours I've sold: george freeman - down and out - valiant demo £140 tobi lark - challenge my love - topper £160 ad libs - new york in the dark - agp mint £200 freddie north - the hurt - ric demo £120 jimmy beaumont - you got too much - bang demo £100 pretty reasonable I'd say!

Easier way than that. The bootlegs are mono/mono, the originals are mono/stereo

Thats right, looks really dull next to the original

Did you see the negative feedback Mick Smith left him as well? DO NOT SELL TO THIS T*AT-HE'S A COMPLETE TIME WASTER-I'LL RELIST-NAME/ SHAME HIM Seller linbin777( 499) Oct-06-06 08:36 160031438289 Reply by bikebuyer1959: what a wanker,sorry big wanker.relist by all means see who has winning bid!!!

Been watching The Beat by any chance? (I only say this because I posted all 3 of those tracks up on YouTube)

Bootleg's on vinyl

Is that the same guy who had the records nicked at keele?

Think it's just a play on the words Monkey Wrench to be honest mate. Anyone remember the spangles advert set to that music..."suck a spangle get happy"

Forget about me is my favourite Motown record I think. I'll come running is fantastic too, as is My smile is just a frown. Shame that the lacklustre When someone's good to you is the commonest of the three.

You could have had that off my £5 list this week!

The Dave Barker version is on a deleted trojan cd called something original like Monkey Spanner

Not that I know of...anyway I paid £125 for this so I just need to get that back really. I'll stick it on ebay for double that and see what happens

No, not real enough

I've got a Tobi Lark - Happiness Is Here - Topper, for sale...no idea what to price it at because of that water damage though the vinyl is excellent...anyone put a price on it?

You have to laugh. I put up the clip of Eddie Hill - Baby I Cried on YouTube, someone has left a comment about him: "Who is this guy? I don't remember him being on Motown"

I'm not saying Right On is the backing track of Domino - but it is the same tune.

I dunno Rich I think I am through the pain barrier, it's 12 days now and I honestly couldn't care less if I never have another beer or a cigarette! The only problem is - I'm sooooo bored at night...I haven't even watched any football this week, just couldn't be bothered, went to bed at 10pm every night...but thanks for the tip!

I was worried about you worrying about me and it ruined my day

Out Of Love (The One That Love Forgot) - the uniques - trojan 10993 refosoul One of the most soulful reggae vocal performances ever recorded...

Not really, I've posted that track up twice to a rapturous reception and also the label scan from the UK trojan issue (which is 10 or so seconds shorter than one of the Jamaican blanks I've got of it) "Out Of Love" - I had no idea it was a cover. I'll post it again.
