Got this for £1.10 from John Manship in the 70s......Sounds awful now.

True enough I guess...........

I know Mark, I got my copy (original press) soon after the Dargemeister. £300. Ouch that hurts now!

Sounds great will listen in. Steve

Mine is an issue. I gather there were a few around in the mid 70s at £1.50. But goodness knows what happened to them. I don't remember seeig it then. It never comes up for sale and is still popular on the dancefloors.

Probably 200 odd. But it's played to death.....

Yup. Remember spinning this just over a year ago at one gig, and someone quite well known comes up to me and says "Can you take this mid tempo sh*te off please and play some northern". There is NO accounting for taste!! Just goes to show you cannot please all of the people all of the time.

I've not played my copy out for a few months now, it's not really working on the dancefloor down here, although I agree a great 45. Steve

Boots who need em......one born every minute, cannot believe some of these mugs they could buy decent originals for that price....

Jerome Jones was played at Stafford. Has also been covered up as Flame N King I believe at some point.

Crikey!!!

Great price for what is essentially a fantastic record. Can't believe you are letting it go! Steve

It was Richard that championed "Everything you always wanted" at Wigan.

Deep side is also a great tune Flanny.....Get a grip man!!

Hi Derek, long time no hear, hope you are well etc etc..... The John L Brown has always been a bit of a funny one. There are a few copies about and yet it commands a reasonable price, I've seen it sell for £200-300. Whether it is legit or not is open to some speculation. I was told once that it was a bootleg (though why such a slow side would be bootlegged is a bit of a mystery, unless for the Jamaicans or something) , and certainly the B side sounds like a "Wigan instrumental" from the mid 70s. Anyway it's a lovely record and one I too have played on occasions. Good luck in solving the mystery...I am sure it is actually Mancha as well by the way Steve

It may have been covered, but it was also played uncovered in the 90s at Soul Essence.,.,.Steve

Interesting comments, and I got searched on a number of occasions before the Niter and on my way back to the station by various members of Gtr Manchester's finest, it does make you wonder.Of course clubs paying money is nothing new.....In Russ's fictional account of the Casino there were some genuine newpaper articles from the mid 70s about the drugs problem.....so mmmmmm, sometimes thinking is dangerous.

Yes I agree but at the time John was interested in putting out what he saw as "quality" modern and crossover, and in a way creating the demand. Some of the records were obscure and things like ELectric Express "Hearsay", Bobby Wayne, Magnetics etc became known to a bigger audience because of the Grapevine release. Had plenty of discussions with John on that topic at the time, and some with garry too. Fab article Plumby.

In the 60s they used vinyl. Styrene only came in for Phil La in the mid 70s, so the reissues and the later stuff like Paradise is on styrene. I have all the releases I think so can say this with some conviction.
