Rose Valentine mate, and yes, that is absolutely fantastic, not the one kent put out but the original one Searling used to play...the Kent one is great but just not quite as good. And what about Who Are You Trying To Fool - fantastic - and the instrumental version, just as good.

I've got this but it's horrible, no wonder it was unreleased

After listening to it, this is the first one I heard and the one I prefer to the other one!

Straight up, I didn't think any of those RCA things were as good as a lot of people reckoned - they were good alright, but too many to take in at one time - none are a match for I'll Always Need You or Change Your Ways n.b. except You Only Live Twice, that was F*cking phenomenal

OK I'm getting a bit confused now - enclosed is a sample of the version I had years ago which I thought didn't have the funny intro - but it does - but it's n ot the same as the one I don't like...and I've got it listed as THE VOLCANOS

Dunno, kind of wah-wah synth noise sounds like it's been added on years later

Really??? No, can't be, can it?

Never liked that. Like the version without the kind of synthy sounds (organ?) on but the other one leaves me cold.

Other side of this is just as good eh? I'm Gonna Paint A Picture...

No, I went to pull out my stash of interesting records and realised I'd sold most of them a few months back!

I've got a David Bowie New Zealand fan club only Pin Ups promo 45 with fold out sleeve...a David Bowie Spanish Can't Help Thinking About Me with picture sleeve...fantastic Alan Freed Rock'n'Roll Band "Right now right now" on Vogue demo...and the Vogue Coral LP...actually I've got bugger all left so ignore this

This is a tough choice because there have been some awesome previously unissued gems played over the last 30 years or so, I was thinking about "Suspicion", "Some day the sun will shine" and second best of all "The magic touch"...but the best of the lot has to be one of the first wave of unissued things Popcorn Wylie gave to John Anderson: BETTY BOO - SAY IT ISN'T SO what a f*cking record, never fully appreciated at the time and released to early. An absolute gem.

Correct Sir.

Before my time that but they used to play it at our youth club discos - 1973-75

You can say that again and you can add to it The Sandpipers - Lonely Too Long

I think it's Patti Page.

Let it go, you can't hate people forever. I like to hear what Ian has been up to. I was convinced he was doing a bit of arranging on that program Hit Me Baby One More Time, the Real Thing did a track which was so Levine it was unreal.

Here's a good one for you

Oi, I did that without seeing the clue :angry:

That last one is the O Jays

Superlatives should cost you 30-40 on blue label 60-70 on yellow label, watch out for the many blue label bootlegs. Fascinations only about 20 quid on original, much more on British Stateside. Charles Sheffield demo must be ultra rare, never seen one myself.

Bit cheap that - more like £100 to £125 and I'm reasonable!

It's a reissue of a 1964 tune, written by Donnie Elbert. Actually called "The Wedding (what can I do)". Came out on UK Island and was very popular as a "last dance" tune. Worth about £15 tops on original.

Have to agree, last nights episode was dreadful - I didn't realise the company only had one act between 1964 and 1968. A nod at the Funk Brothers but no individual names mentioned, footage that's been shown loads of times before and totally out of step with the previous episodes as far as depth goes. What a shame.
