Trust me, that is overpriced for a Doctor Bird single, I had about 120 of the label before I sold them and the most I ever paid was £75 for The Paragons. I sold Glen Miller for £100 but it was Fair at best. Not saying that it isn't the going rate for it on the soul scene but if you're a reggae collector you just wouldn't pay anything like that. It must be super-rare on Stag though.

Yeah it's I've Arrived but he sings "the fruit THATS on the vine" not BATS

It gets a bit confusing because quite a few appeared over the years and there was even an LP with 10 tracks on, handwritten insert, just like a 'rock' bootleg.

Actually I just checkd and it definitely credits The Originals on the acetate

I was referring to the blank pressings mate. Some of the acetates do have artists names on, most don't, the Originals one doesn't. I had an awesome unissued Motown acetate, I think I sold it to Stuart Tyler, turns out it was by Hattie Littles, can't even remember what it was called now but that was just one sided and had the music publisher and title only. Also had the original acetate of the fast version of Midnight Johnny, again, title and publisher only. However those were publishers acetates, the actual studio acetates have a bit more info on them usually.

Didn't those have US type centres though? Or is that what you mean.

Happy - William Bell ??

I've got it here - it's in Simon Soussan's price guide (thats a rarity in itself) master number CCMN-0979-NHDD whatever that means dated 4/22/66. I've had a few of these over the years and I've never had one with a different artist on the flip.

Dodgy...what you reckon Suspicion

Wolves mate

Hold up, my actual Stone Island pieces - I've got about 14 - are all kosher. I've got a snide Prada hat and scarf. I bought a real Aquascutum scarf last week for £45, which is a lot of money for a scarf but it's nice...it would be chav if I had an Aqua cap because they are everywhere but the scarves haven't been pirated yet. Also I only really wear jeans - Levis, Jasper Conran very comfy, I've got a pair of Evisu which I bought as legit but I'm not sure. Real chavs wear sportswear/tracksuit bottoms. And I wear Vans not trainers.

Sorry for putting this in the wrong section, moderators please feel to move it, delete it or sticky it

Mine was The Intentions but agree it should be better known things...try this one.. You know how it feels to be standing all alone

Somethings burning...except it's meant to be the first line

It's too early for a bath, 2 hours til mine, amon a promise tonight but only if I have tea ready by 6pm so I;d best get off here sharpish try this.. though I'm going away (baby) for a little while...

I could be here 100 years and never get that one...

I thought it was too expensive!

Smarty Pants

That's true. I do all the cooking in our house. But anyway... if nobody else is going to have a go I'll do another one Boy I love you and you know it I tried so many times to show it

Sheer poetry!

Whats the second line??

Offers for Mick Smith's moustache, as modelled by the man himself below and as worn by Saddam Hussein amongst others. This is the original, 30 year old tache, slightly used and could do with a shampoo but generally in excellent condition.
