I'd like these, would someone buy them for me for my birthday please?

Thanks, everyone

There's been an awful lot sold since then though.

How would I twist those pictures round so they face the right way, anyone?

As far as behaviour goes, Discogs is paradise compared to Ebay. I've done 600 no hassle transactions now, have nearly 300 positive feedbacks and nobody has tried to claim they never received their records or try to get a discount off for "misgrading"

Yeah I think I've dealt with him, I definitely know the name.

Is there no way you could have scratched it when opening it, if it's a straight line scratch across the record, I've done it myself on occasion

Brav thanks for a truly great post, close the old eyes and it could be Curtis singing lead

I know the name, not sure why. Doesn't look as if you can search by seller on Discogs though, which is a bit odd.

You should still have sent it recorded though Sean, even if it leaves you out of pocket, because if not, it's a recipe for disaster. Thanks for the warning about the seller though. At least you can leave him negative feedback. Anyway what are you doing paying £30 for a UK Montclairs

I think there was an article about it in one of the Togetherness magazines. If I've still got it, I'll send you the magazine.

British or JA?

Shall have to look out for that, he's a really good, underrated singer

I've only seen two since I sold that first one. I told people to look out for Dave Barker - She Want It, but forgot that came out on two labels, so if anyone bought an Escort copy with the wrong B side because of me, I'm sorry LOL

One that I can confidently say I discovered. Had it covered for ages before I told anyone what it was. Can't remember what it was covered as though. (I reviewed it in Beatin Rhythm issue 14, Autumn 1994 - covered as Sonya Kay & The Ebonies).

40 or 50 in that nick - hard to sell at full price even

Not really, they're both bloody brilliant records!

No it is funny, I was standing next to Mick on Saturday when Dave told him he didn't sell him the copy. Priceless.

It's a good question, who'd pay that, who did pay that? The alternative version on the test press barely makes that price. £200, £250 tops in the real world.

It's the 1977 one, by Tony Palmer, the one that we were all there when they filmed

Some good pop records played as NS though, not saying that one is great but Tell Her, More Today Than yesterday etc
