The issue is not that much different really except the label is light blue. Not seen many issues at all!

Reward Offered For Lloyd's Collection
How inconsiderate of her not to tell him whether or not it was a US issue or Uk demo or Brazillian EP for that matter. If Corrie were going to be historically accurate they should have mentioned the condition of them as well. They might only have been VG minus! Tell you what - How they are going to emcompass Blanche death into the storyline now is going to be interesting. At the church the Organist is playing "Halos are for Angels"

Instrumentals That Are Better Than The Vocals
Parrish - Remember the times on Uptite The Vocal sounds like the mamas and papas but the instrumental is brilliant IMO

Ebay Madness...kings Go Forth
But this applies to any record that becomes in demand! The Ethics - I want my baby back is another example. Person on here says he will give me £25 for it(Mint white demo) as that what its worth he says Then when it becomes a bit in demand a few months later he has a copy up for sale for £100 and obviously wont sell it to me cheaper. WE are all opportunists otherwise what the point of collecting if you cant have bragging rights! Mind you - The Kings go forth must be pretty rare in the whole scheme of things if only 500 copies were made compared to other titles that supposedly are rare but are turning up by the bucket load.

Djing For The First Time Tonight, Any Tips
Obviously Im too late to give advice. I Have to agree with Joan - Originals only - Thats what made the scene what it is! You dont expect a Robon reliant to pass itself off as a Ferrari so why should people pass fakes (boots) off as original recordings! My worst moment as a Dj (Maybe this should be another thread but hey) Is Not Queing up "Heaven in the afternoon" about 6 years ago only to wait for the vocal to kick in after the intro but it didnt. Stupid tit that I am put on the Instrumental side on. My mates were making Nobhead gestures but the crowd did the vocals at the Chorus. Never again have I put a record on without listening to the Intro or look at the label.

Trends
Well Iasked him why he hadnt replied to questions about the Trends and here is Coolaxle's answer: sorry i dont play games, you didnt even ask me a question before! and what has a previous auction got to do with you if you werent the winner? i suggest you occupy your time with better things than worrying about things that dont concern you,lifes short you know! but by the way just so i dont leave you in suspence, all the questions i had & seen while i was at home i answered, apart from around 3 that were asked around the last 6 hours of auction end which is when i was working, hence no answer His last bit about not answering because he was at work is bullshit because he answered my original question about the other record he has and said he would let me know when he got home as he was at work at the moment. What does this make him?
-
Trends
Ive just messaged him (a question about the b-side) about another record he has for sale that looks legit- lets see if he replies and if he does I will then ask him why he didnt reply to questions about the Trends. Wow ! It took him 5 minutes to reply

Greatest Salsoul Tune?
Totally Agree Ian - Fantastic memories Remember when Salsoul 2001 was big! Another fav of mine was Moment of Truth - You got me Hummin
-
Two Plus Two
Its quite a good record IMO but certainly not worth the money in that condition. Who was it who quoted that Shrine was the rarest label and look at that now with them turning up all the time. Again I keep saying this - Wheres the provenance to say its that rare other than certain dealers have only had a few copies.

Wanted Jimmy Mack
I have to agree - When was the last time you saw an orig for sale on Ebay or anywhere for that matter - Dont know other peoples opinions but I think this is very rare! Glad to hear youve got one hopefully.

Bootlegs And Deception
I totally agree with you- The Dj who plays Boots today knows they are boots and IMO are even F**king worse than the boot maker as they only want to have fame and dont F**king care about the music. Yet when these self same DJs are approached about other formats get onto their hypocrytical stance of its only vinyl here mate and bleat on about it doesnt matter about OVO cos its whats in the grooves that count. They are in denial or are intelectually disabled - One or the other Ive just bought about 12 records from the Us for less than £100 and could do a half hour spot with them no problem and keep the dance floor reasonably happy. We should have Boot -Burning meetings or get the "Soul Police" to confiscate the Djs earnings as they have profited from criminality "Crime doesnt Pay" but Boots appear to do so!

Top Dj C/u
Yes I should keep up and know it all I shall have one of my slaves take me outside and give me a good whipping for not reading other related threads and only concentrating on this one where someone asks "Is Keb playing this" Thats why I said we should not speculate. I feel thoroughly chastised now. Now Dylan remember that thread about ????? Keep up my good man

Top Dj C/u
Thanks for that Pete - Did he have an original copy or did he get it carved from a cd as it infers thats where its come from- If its the latter then shame on him and he should be ridiculed if its the former how many of us have covered up records that were crap in many peoples opinion! I first covered up - She chased me -Bobby Goldsboro( I listen to it now and think - Why the hell did I do that?) I should have been shot!
