Mal C

Hola Argentina!! Anybody else got scans from South America?

Just came through the post today.....God I Love Collecting SOUL Records ! And this is why!!! and before anybody comments, I don't care what anybody says, The SNAKE is a brilliant record.. PERIOD.. Enjoy. Mal.C.

paid a tenner for mine, the flips deffo better than "Look out Love"..Mal

Just seen this on the bay at $1000 usd, is it known, is it worth that much? Mal.C.

Diane Lewis - You Aint got a Chance (Cover Up), I was told recently by a dealer in the know that this was the Ad-Libs? I know people get shirty with cover ups and all that but surely this has been identified by now..... also mickey and jody from Brum had a dub in the mid 9ts which I know they sold to Pete Smith, anybody know where that it these days? Mal.C.

lot of money for a not so good dancer...IMO its nearly got it all but sounds flat to my ears... for that kind of money I want Fookin `Bells!! Mal.C

Love the Edwin Starr on Polydor, I expect thats worth allot is it?? Polydor down under only released 2 or so tracks worth hunting down, Bobby Paris, Tony Middleton and the Flirtations. M

I know matey. my reply was made in the same way..Hey, ANY excuse to post the weird and wonderful...!! as I've said I don't have that much British at .. but I have picked some nice 7ts things up recently which look the biz..and as all have mentioned the quality of the vinyl and recording is second to none in almost all cases.. Aussie, specifically Festival records recordings are on the whole pretty bad, W&G in Melbourne did however do a great job but did not release any where near enough soul recordings... M

all posted to Illustrate what Chris might be missing.. simply that Mr Mooney.. if ya want British only, thats all I shall sprout from now on. Mal.C.

Bloody Hell, that told us all...no grey area there !! laughs Mal

I think so, there were ten.. M

there is a chap from over there who has been selling 45's from Lebanon for some years, he told me all the majors released stuff there through one company, I won a few and my American Dollars were never seen again!! nor the records... Mal.C.

I Like that as well, there is a touch of SAGE - I'm alive about it, not as good in the vocal I think, he'd sound allot better if he really went for it... great organ break at the end.. Mal.C

Or Dutch Courage and French Knickers!! Or do I have to get me Brazillian OUT!! Mal.C.

and this sort of thing, just because they are there??? Laughs

I collect USA then Australian, and some British, the Aussie I expect you rate even less that the Uk stuff... laughs but Honestly Chris, you dont find it the least bit appealing collecting records like this??

I thought this was uninspiring when I first heard it, but I've come around, I'll even say I like George Lemons these days... Mal.C.

I've had this off Gene in the last year, Great Fun, wacky tune, I think its great personally!! you get em on evilbay for 10-20 usd... Mal.C.

OK, my addy is sent, the tracks already selected, I'm very excited about this one cause I went down the shed and grabbed a hundred or so 12 inchers, which i had not touched in years, I mean a very very long time, anyhow they were all in order, every one a winner just there ready to record.. very excited and Matto Grosso : Star Suit deffo goes in as well.. Mal.C.

Blimey, I was going to pop some mondo grosso stuff in my CD... thats if you all allow me to get involved in this swap, Wrongcrowd??? Mal.C.

I'm interested if its still open ?? I pulled a modern selection for the one we just did, but plumed for a sixties CD in the end.. Mal.C.

would the 2 seconds change for either vinyl or styrene, surly they both have different melting temps?? Mal.C.

I'm glad you enjoyed it, its a shame, I had two copies on Mah's, it also came out on Spartan, one of Mike's other labels, they are hard to get in good condition though on that label, always seem to be knackered!! should not be too hard on Mah's though, pay no more than 20-30 quid. As I mentioned its a Ted Masey tape from 87, and was a BIG influence on me at the VIC, I've been buying those tracks up ever since..but lets face it there is some super hard and now very very expensive 45's on there.. Mal.C

There are four pages of reply / discussion on this thread, so I'd simply like to come in on the original question which i feel may have already been answered somewhat, but........... NO F***** WAY Mal.C.

I'd personally love this, Evilbay is evilbay, soul source and all that, I really miss going to Record fairs, they are really exciting!! mal.
