Repairing Skips
I used to be able to do it but can't see well enough now. It's very easy, all you need is a good magnifier and a scalpel. I think Boba said he could do something.

You are correct though It is a shame though that nobody can comment when a ludicrous price appears

Johnny Mae Matthews - I Have No Choice - Big Hit (Vg/vg+)
JOHNNY MAE MATTHEWS - I HAVE NO CHOICE / THAT'S WHEN IT HURTS - BIG HIT 105. This one is a typical 'never been kept in a sleeve' copy, crackly especially at the start, improves as it proceeds, but does have audible background noise. You can hear the actual record on the podcast below and make up your own mind (every records on that podcast is or was for sale) It's at 49 mins 30 seconds approximately. Asking £300. Scan at bottom of post is actual copy, sorry it's a rubbish photo. (B side if anyone is interested, is in poor condition, fair to good) https://www.mixcloud.com/mayfairmenthol/soul-for-sale-2/

Cheap Record - Rare Demo
Steve I think I sold you a couple of rare 70's white demos - I've not seen copies since: Andre Maurice - You're the cream of the crop - Bale WD Kim Tolliver - I don't know what foot to dance on - Castro WD both of those must be mega rare but both are cheap

Dunno, it makes me feel superior to them when I see them knowing what I know. Have to laugh as I see one of them constantly being praised on here.

The Lovelites
Exactly. But it's £60 tops. I've got a vg+ one for £30 if any takers. Crackles a bit in one channel.

Millage Records
Fantastic work mate, this is what it's all about, sharing information after doing amazing detective work. I always feel humbled by the likes of yourself, Andy Rix etc who somehow manage to collate all of this knowledge and share it with us. Just think what we wouldn't know if it weren't for guys like these. I'd like to thank you all for educating us.

As I said, this is the first I've heard of it, I've never heard of or seen a repro, if there is one it must be very very recent or the bloke doesn't have a clue

Another very, very overpriced record on British.

Magnificent Men
Useless information time, there's a really good UK cover version of "Peace Of Mind" by local (to me) band Zuider Zee which came out on CBS in 66. It's not as good as the MM version but it is well worth a listen. Quite an obscure one.

Dj Safety
On two occasions I've had people I invited round (or who asked to come round) steal records from me while I've been there, either making a coffee or one chap said he'd left his bag behind, went back up to my room on his own, when I went up myself the record he'd asked about which I wouldn't sell him had gone. And that's someone currently on the scene, been on the scene for years and years and who still speaks to me thinking I'm oblivious...

60's Jukebox For Sale
If anyone is interested in this I will take £500 for it. Genuine reason for sale - I've bought another one and haven't got room for both.
