Sitting In The Park - Billy Stewart Or Georgie Fame
Yes it probably is - I just like this particular record more than the original - and I love the original.

Would definitely be interested in that. Typically, I sold one last year before I started collecting again.

Yeah but it's 40 quid more than it's really worth on there!

Sitting In The Park - Billy Stewart Or Georgie Fame
You're missing the point here, nobody in their right mind would say that georgie Fame is a better soul singer than Billy Stewart, all I was saying in the original post is that I prefer Georgie Fame's version - because of it's musical and vocal arrangement. Sometimes, copies are better than the originals - case in point is one mentioned elsewhere, Bessie Banks vs The Moody Blues versions of Go Now - the cover absolutely murders the original, which sounds like a demo that should never have been released.

Curtis Lee And The Kcp's
The chances of this happening must be thousands to one but I was putting together this weekends podcast last night and I actually recorded that record, and while it was on I thought "I bet this is the only northern record to feature yodelling" and I swear that on my kids lives. Incredible coincidence. The record has the same backing as Quittin Time and came out on Wheelsville and CBS (UK) which I have it on. Never heard it played out.

Martha Reeves Live At Wigan Casino Part 1
Martha Reeves live at Wigan Casino Posted info: ; Having a few problems getting this to work but basically it's a short clip from a live tape of Martha Reeves at Wigan casino, now I saw her there and it was January 1978 but there is no way that this is that date - I can tell by the sounds played after she finishes and I think this is at least a year later (includes Don Ray, Patrick Bradley, Construction). Great atmosphere though, hope you enjoy it.

Suppose I'd better close this before it starts kicking off. See you lot in 6 months when you're all begging for a copy

Calling Any Detroit Experts
Another strange statement Marc. An awful lot of people, including myself, aren't aware of anything that's on ebay until the last day - I only ever look under 'ending today'. So it could have been there for a month really, I still wouldn't have known about it. Secondly, did you see the header of the sales listing? Listing it as Jingle Jangle, I nearly didn't bother clicking on it and only did because I'd got nothing else to do. So a great deal less people probably heard it than you think. Anyway I don't give a monkeys really, I love it, the buyer loves it, most other people love it, I've got my own copy and I've got the money for it so it doesn't really matter what anyone else thinks. To quote John Manship: they all dislike it except it'd be different if they owned it - then it would be the greatest record ever

If you read what I said, I actually said 2500 was the most I ever got for a record, I didn't say it was for this record. Not everyone is on Ebay, so thats another of your points answered. And thirdly, the most important thing, and it's the point you've totally overlooked - it's one of the most perfect Northern Soul records you'll ever hear, including the vocal. p.s. no need to put "big name dj" in brackets as if you think I'm lying.
