My Roscoe Robinson is on Gerri, the local label. It also came out on Wand. I think they both sound the same. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

There's definitely two versions, one of them is the usual version, the other on the intro has the first few bars repeated...first time I heard the difference was on a compilation LP so can't tell you if it's on a 45

seems a cheap shot, this is a soul site so rightly paid a mark of respect, the pop world with its many radio shows/ web sites rightly paid its own appropriate tributes to John Peel contribution to that scene.Danny D

Why is it a cheap shot, it's my opinion, nobody says you have to agree with me, I wasn't a great fan of DG. Anyway you seem to spend an awful long time picking holes in stuff I say, you got f*** all better to do?

Hi Folks and a very happy new year to you all
Just a quick list to get rid of old stock, reduced loads of these, can't go any lower so have a look see if you can find some bargains. Also a few new things added.
If anyone spots anything on here that they think they have ordered, best let me know as I haven't received payment.
Got some great stuff coming up in the next few weeks so hopefully I'll be able to continue doing the lists weekly.
Finally, today I start using the new credit card machine so bear with me if I'm a little slow with it ok!
Cheers
Pete

Yes there are, Someone I've DJ'ed with has one, but for the life of me I can't remember who. It's someone in the Midlands though.

Do you know if it's white Dave or gold with promotional copy on it???
Just that Brownie only values the promo at £40 and I got to thinking I'd never seen one (after someone offered me one)

I only use John's book as reference it's great for label numbers and flip sides when net trawling ... as for Pete!.... I think apart from John Powney he is the best and most honest pricer of records around! And his grading is impecable err! impeckable I mean inpeccable ...bollox! I mean "dam bloody good"

Gee thanks Mr Wiggles whoever you are. I've actually lowered my prices last 3 months. And I'm still reducing all the non sold stuff each week - e.g. the lydia marcelle started off at 150, it's 75 this week. Shame, great record that...
