Being as though someone has resurrected this old thread I will add to it and state that, over the years I have purchased several boots/re issues of very rare records, so that I could record them for home use. Every one of them has been terrible sound quality, and I couldn't stand to listen to them. Not just vinyl either. After getting back into northern through the Cd's that were available late nineties. After listening to them for a couple of years and then getting some of the original vinyl. The difference was amazing, and not just in sound quality, but also the pitch. Just shows that a lot of those early Cd's must have been dubbed from vinyl or even tapes, and some probably off boots.

Bootlegging boots. Third issue.

Obsolutely right. You would have to limit yourself to producing just one copy of each record, otherwise suspicions would be raised and values would tumble overnight.

Love "Hang On" hate the other side. Bloody rare record this, great price.

Become a hot boxer, it's the future.

I hope you like them John. I love them. If you have been using light carts you will need to screw the extra weights back onto the tone arm.

Shall we do a poll, are you: A- a collector or B- a hot boxer Always been a hot boxer me, even in the seventies I don't think I ever owned more than 500 records. I once started to collect the Loma label, but I soon came to my senses when I heard some of the God awful songs on it.

Carbon dating. They'll be giving JM a job on The Antiques Roadshow as an expert next.

I can't understand what's happening, I've seen copies of Jimmy Wallace and the Holidays for sale at half those prices that haven't sold in the recent past. And the looney who paid silly money for the Velvet Satins last time must be wishing he had less money and more good sense now.

I thought it was a completely different recording?

What price this if it was rare? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=jgXGXGeTfJI

I was just winding the collectors up. I don't really give a **** but when members on this forum say that a lot of the UK issued stuff wasn't actually licensed it makes you wonder. I seem to remember it was Butch who first called them reissues. I thought it was funny and have called them by that name ever since. Just a bit of fun. A more pertinent point may be how obscene is it that someone can afford to spend that amount of money on a 45?

I think they are both superb.

Yes, that's very true of a lot of backing tracks because that's what they are, backing tracks. I couldn't wait to hear the Peanut Duck dance track without the vocal, bloody boring as well.

That don't sound owt like it to me Pete. Just thinking of all the other shared backing tracks Tony Hestor - Down In The Dumps = Stanley Mitchell - Get It Baby Tony Hestor - Spaceland = Tommy Neil - Going to a Happening

A bit like that one on your avatar then Nev?

What chance of a proper minter though in 2015?

Still sounds like Sister Lee to me. Fantastic record though but.

Oh to be rich...........

We were discussing Sharleen Spiteri, and her love of Northern Soul. She is the lead singer in the group Texas. Heartache Avenue, definitely has a northern influence. Though I would never play it at an allnighter.

Is this the one with the same backing track as Sister Lee?

Didn't mention soul, I said northern. You can hear the influence.

'When we are together" is pure northern. Great record.

Yeh don't get me wrong Pete, I enjoyed it.
