Loved the Fingertips bit (how did he do that?) hated most of the rest of it, all that chatting and banter, just get on with it. Stevie Wonder brings back bad memories of Davina being in labour and me and her being stuck in that hospital room with just a radio, there was a live Stevie Wonder concert on radio 2 and it was so boring that the baby decided not to come out for another 7 hours. p.s. cue sarcastic post from Little Stevie with some deragotary comment about me just because I didn't enjoy it

Hill & Range is the name of the music publisher, not an artist

Dante £30 is the correct price, either label

This is too much like hard work having to explain to f*ckwits so I'll close the topic and repeat for the last time, if I do set sale list, it's for the set sale prices, if a record has OFFERS next to it, it's up for offers, if you can't understand that then God help you.

Why the f*ck should I, just for the benefit of a few morons on soul source who don't understand what a set sale is?

I was gonna say that, mind-reader!

I've already got a solid loyal and supportive customer base for your information, have had for 20 years, they are respectful and know they always get a good deal from me without having to beg...you're not a pr*ck by any chance?

Allelujah!

Not in the world of set sale lists is it, and it never has been, I shouldn't have to put NO OFFERS when it's obviously a set sale list. I didn'yt mention JM's website, I just mentioned asking HIM personally. You either want the record or you don't. And as I said, I send out to 1500 people via my mailing list and the only people trying to get money off are on Soul Source, which fortunately only accounts for less than 10% of sales anyway so I'm able to wait and see if someone off the mailing list comes in to buy at the proper price or I just tell the tightwads the record's already gone. In some cases I'd rather smash the f*cking thing than reduce it when I get people who've openly been bragging about spending over a grand on a record then trying to get £20 off something I'm selling for £200.

I'm just wondering where on my SET SALE lists it says YOU CAN MAKE OFFERS? Do you honestly think these people ring up John Manship and say, hey I want that record off your site but it's too expensive so I'll give you half what you're asking? Of course they don't, they do it on here because they know they can take the piss. Does John manship do free postage? No he doesn't. Why the f*ck should I? Costs me the same as it does him. Like I say - it only happens on here.

Really??? Who by? Any good? Never even heard of this.

He's not even covering the Cliff Nobles version, he's covering the Jesse James unreleased version

Nothing wrong with that one - definite original

Around £75 I'd have thought. Well thats' what I'd probably ask for it.

Fabulous, thanks, I'll get to work!

Cheers Jerry, if you come across it could you give us the link as if I search for Yate it'll probably bring up 10 pages worth!

Had loads like that, right around the label not affecting the play at all

Can you keep these titles comiong because I've been asked by a couple of people to do a Yate podcast but I never went so have no first hand experience of what was played.

Thing is, I've had people buying off me for 20 years and they never embarass themselves by asking for money off - they know in 99% of cases I sell cheaper than anyone else anyway.

I posted a list up for Mick Smith yesterday, and after a few hours I rang him and said well how did it go? He said yeah, he'd done pretty well, mainly off his postal list, I said did you get many orders off Soul Source? He said he had four or five - he knew they'd come from Soul Source because they were the only ones who tried to get him to knock money off or do free postage What is it with people on here? I've never known it anywhere else. Knock me money off if I buy two records, do me free postage, will you take X amount if I pay straight away. I've listed records at half price and had people try to get them cheaper or get free postage. Only happens on here.

I'd love to know who did these, they also did The Mob, Gene Chandler (Mr Big Shot), The Magnificents, Five of a Kind, Christy Allen, many more, all identifiable by using the same typeface for the logo.

No thats totally different to the one in the photo!

The one bottom left is the dubious one, this was counterfeited

There's one on the list I posted up for Mick Smith in todays sales, £100. I had one for £75 earlier this week but as you know, it sold pretty quickly.
