Yeah it does, and I'll tell you why, and it's something that bugs me more than anything on here. Person psosts a list of say 10 records. After a while, he sells one, so instead of editing his original post and putting SOLD next to it, he makes a fresh post saying 'so and so record is sold', like it's a f*cking important announcement that we should all know about. This happens every time he sells a record, and consequently every time he sells a record, he goes back to the top. This should be moderated and stopped.

Your sales only stay at the top of the pile until the next sales advert goes up, that's always been a problem. Sometimes it can be an hour or two, sometimes it can be one minute.

you are so right - there are some very ambitious sellers on here sometimes

Any last knockings on this - 490 current price

I like it!

No I agree - fantastic track

Someone will know!

Mark are you sure this is a Detroit track, I always thought it was from Texas for some reason!

So it's a totally different record altogether then, right? Cos the one I had was definitely a child singing. Inez Foxx would have been in her 20's at least when it was recorded. (my one, I mean) (or a demo intended FOR Inez Foxx maybe?)

Wonder why it's credited to Inez Foxx, it sounds nothing like her (if it's the same singer)

No, never. I lioke that Marcia Aitken record as well, was playing it in the car yesterday actually, the extended one where it goes into 3 Piece Suit.

Sorry, didn't realise you were in charge of what we are allowed to say, I'll ask your permission next time

It's the same as with soul - after the original reggae in 1968, that lasted for about 2 years then it started to slow down, then rasta and roots elements came into it and it became dull as far as I was concerened. The only things I can listen to from the 70's are dj's and dub. Because the sound changed so much from the 60's, it meant nothing to me, and thats how it is with soul, or rather, Northern Soul. Come the digital age, the music had moved so far away from it's original roots that I don't even class it as reggae.

Yeah but I don't like any reggae after 1970 you should have guessed that!

No there's not. Go back to bed.

Do you mean me, if so, why? I'm not even involved in the thread!

You tell 'em Kev! Nice to see someone speak their mind.

Have already mentioned this in the topic 'worst of the worst'. I described it as music that makes you want to kill yourself. It's about as appealling as a night in spent watching Go Compare adverts.

Yes but they officially pressed every Columbia/Epic biggie (Poppies, Edwards, Randell, French Fries, Blackwell, Valery, Vibrations etc) but missed this one for some reason - like you say, probably too common.

This one will end tomorrow night, 9pm, cheers

Me too!

Not only that but when you hear certain records, you automatically think you know whats going to follow them because thats how it was on your old tape! Like every time I hear Lockes Theme I think of Total Eclipse "6 o clock" starting right away. Also if you've got a tape of a record and it jumps, when you hear it you get used to that jump and come to expect it; I had a copy of Why Can't We be Lovers by Holland & Dozier in 1972 and it always jumped in the same place and when I got it on cd it just wasn't the same without the jump

I was also going to add that The Steinways is a cats record and I think was due to be booted on Out Of The Past

PETE SMITH 4 BLAKELEY HEATH DRIVE WOMBOURNE WOLVERHAMPTON WV5 0HW 01902 326306 pete.smith@freeuk.com As promised folks, a list of USA 45's at last. And if people buy stuff off this list, I'll be able to buy some really cracking records and bring them to you at my usual bargain prices! cheers all Pete PERCY STONE & THE EXPLOSIONS - CHAINED - RAM EX OFFS Books at 750 and five have sold for between 400 and 700 in the last 3 years - offers please, minimum offer 300. Vinyl is nice, label has a small bit of staining on the right hand side, just looks like a dark mark and you can still see the print through it BONNIE HERMAN – HUSH DON’T CRY – COLUMBIA DEMO VG+ 125 SOLD This only looks vg+ due to a large non-sounding mark but plays EX, if it hadn’t got that mark I’d have put at least 150 on this, trust me it plays like a dream LIZ LANDS & THE TEMPTATIONS– MIDNIGHT JOHNNY – GORDY DEMO M 85 The rare West Coast purple label demo in pristine condition, you won’t find a better one – and what a sound THE AMERICAN POETS – SHE BLEW A GOOD THING – BELGIAN LONDON! EX+ 50 Never seen one of these in my life or even knew it existed. Black label, looks like a US import but is actually from Belgium! SUSAN MADDOX – MY – ZANZI VG+ 40 Early dancer – popcorn? Light crackle in parts. Books at 100. NAT BROWN - IF THIS IS WHAT YOU WANT GO AHEAD - SELMA EX 50 Killer beat ballad - a magnificent piece of soul music. Weird dancer on the other side too. THE DE VONS - SOMEONE TO TREAT ME - KING M- 35 Lovely midtempo dancer LOU EDWARDS & TODAYS PEOPLE - TALKIN' BOUT POOR FOLKS - COLUMBIA DEMO VG+ 30 Bit of label damage (water) and various marks and a few small scratches - plays fine but clicks now and again, will do til a better one turns up ROBERT BANKS - A MIGHTY GOOD WAY - VERVE DEMO M- 60 SOLD Almost forgotten Torch oldie - rare original THE EXOTICS - LIKE YOU HURT ME - CORAL DEMO EX 40 Uptempo R&B tinged dancer, books at 75; someone drew around the centre hole so it's got a thin red band around it KIM WESTON - I'M STILL LOVING YOU - TAMLA VG+ 40 A bit scruffy but plays great, perfect for djing, odd pop here and there but loud and powerful and always packs the floor BARBARA McNAIR - YOU'RE GONNA LOVE MY BABY - MOTOWN EX 75 Different copy to the one I had last week, few non-spounding light marks but otherwise top-draw ANITA BRYANT - MY MINDS PLAYING TRICKS ON ME AGAIN - COLUMBIA EX 40 Brilliant ender BILL DOGGETT - TWENTY FIVE MILES - KING DEMO M 25 Excellent and in-demand version THE SHIRELLES - WAIT TIL I GIVE THE SIGNAL - SCEPTER EX- 25 Nice dancer, one of their last for Scepter, underrated tune GWEN OWENS - I LOST A GOOD THING - VELGO VG++ 100 SOLD The rare green label design, powerhouse dancer, visually you can see it's not been kept in a sleeve but play wise, I think I heard maybe 3 tiny clicks on the whole record - half book price LOU JOHNSON - UNSATISFIED - BIG TOP EX 20 A Classic amongst classics THE ESSEX - MOONLIGHT MUSIC AND YOU - BANG DEMO EX+ 25 What a shit version this is, sometimes I do wonder why I buy some of these records LOL anyway on the plus side, it uses the original backing track, unfortunately the girl vocalist is having an off day (is it Anita Humes? Doubt it) THE CONTENDERS - DO WHAT YOU GOTTA DO - EDGE M 30 Nice Wigan oldie THE EQUIRES - DANCIN' A WHOLE IN THE WORLD - ROCKY RIDGE M- 25 Another record I detest, and also that other version, terrible TONY DANIELS - HOW LONELY - SPORT M 45 Nice, underrated midtempo sound - good vocalist BETTY LA VETTE - I'M HOLDING ON - BIG WHEEL M- 35 Cracking oldie JACKIE WILSON - I GET THE SWEETEST FEELING - BRUNSWICK DEMO M- 30 This has Barbara Acklin - Love makes A Woman on the B side, I'd have thought this yellow demo would have been rare but it doesn't book highly, I'm surprised. Has writing on the label (intro time and date). Nice, curiousity piece. THE FALCONS - HAS IT HAPPENED TO YOU YET - LU PINE DEMO EX- 100 Good solid Detroit rarity, writing on label (couple of names in biro) plays great TURLEY RICHARDS - JUST CAN'T TAKE IT NO LONGER - COLUMBIA DEMO M 40 His other record - another good dancer THE PERFECTIONS - SO LONELY - BIG B G+ 75 This looks like it got run over by a truck, it has ring wear and another record must have got stuck to it as it has a bit of a stax label stuck to it - but not only is it in the price guide at 600, it also plays fine, obviously it's got some background noise but I've heard worse. 600 quid record for 75 quid, go on, you know you want to BARBARA JEAN ENGLISH - TASTES SOUR DON'T IT - A. SCHROEDER MUSIC CORP ACETATE M- 250 SOLD This is a 10" acetate which I bought from Chris (son of Jimmy) Radcliffe a couple of years back, I believed it was the only one in existence and sold it for 400 quid, few weeks later turns out there was another one. Anyway this is the same copy that I originally had, still in gorgeous condition, and it's a bloomin' brilliant uptempo Northern dancer of the highest quality, if you haven't heard it and want to hear it I'll send you an mp3 POSTAGE 2.00 RECORDED. SPECIAL DELIVERY 6.00 PAYMENT BY CARD, BANK TRANSFER, PAYPAL (THERE'S A CHARGE FOR THIS SORRY), CHEQUE, CASH. THANKS FOR READING.
