  1. But it's not the rarest, we all know someone who's got a copy!
  2. I've reported this to Discogs. or at least I've raised it in the forum there.
  3. Yeah yours showed up about 2 seconds after mine. I can't think of a rarer record than a 2 copy Frank Wilson though - not a 'proper' record, pressed on vinyl
  4. Plus it's one of those 'good vibe' records like Be Young, Be Foolish, Be Happy that can take you back to better times in seconds
  5. I just did.
  6. Well all know Frank Wilson is the rarest, so if it's not that, it doesn't matter what it is.

    Well it's certainly not a boot, this record never came in a million miles of being booted. That's the previous Stang label to the red one.
  8. I've not posted on a sales topic today?
  9. Not the same as the Bernard Williams track is it? Unissued I think.

    This seller is at it again with his shill bidding mate, Mick Smith bid on 8 of these yesterday and was outbid by the same bidder on everyone, a bidder who only appears to have ever bidded on this sellers records, won a couple and then given them back to him to be sold for a second time https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/monkly2/m.html?item=151168828610&pt=UK_Records&hash=item23325d44c2&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

    Something up there then because the date I did the tape was April 11th 1976, and I don't know how long Wigan had had it for by then, or Blackpool
  12. Yeah I ploughed a lone furrow since the age of 11. Never been to a reggae event, dance, record fair. Never had any friends into reggae, apart from ones made on the internet post-96. Read everything I could (which wasn't much until a few years ago), bought records whenever I could find or afford them. I got into soul after I got into reggae, it's usually the other way round but I thought most soul records sounded the same (this is around 1972-73)
  13. They're like chalk and cheese. Rocksteady is from the mid 60's. All the sweet soul I've heard is just like the things that used to make the charts in the mid 70's, pop soul music, disposable stuff. I don't know any Jamaican reggae dudes.
  14. Rubaiyats £80 Bits N Pieces probably £100 now, was a little more but think demand has died down now Was £15 a couple of years ago
  15. Killer in thats what you want to do to yourself after hearing it going by that clip
  16. Half decent semi-known by Barry St John, it's only on stock copies, demos are one sided with the other side. Paid £8.39
  17. Non-interesting fact: Soupy Sales sons were in Iggy Pop's band and also David Bowie's Tin Machine project
  18. His record "The Mouse" on ABC is supposed to have been played in the 60's, I doubt it though, it's terrible

    Wasn't that bad, one member was at number one three years later, Christie - Yellow River. Great footage, thanks for posting.
  20. Not my usual cup of tea, but for a UK production, that Polly Brown record is really good. Nothing to do with the fact that I picked one up.
  21. Elmer Gantrys Velvet Opera - but Direction wasn't a dedicated soul label, it was about 60% soul - the Mickey Finn single on Direction is one of the best records of the 60's
  22. Theres nothing to stop you, and I think you should!
  23. OK so let's set up an imaginary scenario. New seller appears, selling a copy of Too Late and asking £200 for it. Someone posts "PM'd you" which probably means that someone who perhaps doesn't know that the record is only worth £50, is going to be paying four times too much. What is wrong with someone coming onto the post and saying that the price is steep, in order to stop our less knowledgable friend being ripped off?
  24. Ady that link should just take you straight to a player, just press go
