Being a tight git I've offered $10 told him that it all it is worth being a recent repress

is this the same guy Jonno? https://www.ebay.com/...ht_1197wt_112

The guy in France has one up on ebay now. As far as I am aware he got ten copies from Luckey Davis.

another topic here Jonno...

wouldn't mind hearing the flip too. Like I said I know of one that will be for sale if anyone interested. Serious offers only.

Yes it's Detroit Robb, same label as Bernie Moore....

That's what I thought too but thought I'd check. I might know of one for sale if anyone interested.

Money Can't Buy My Love. Can you give me a current price please?

U.G.E. is the label for Underground Express.

Live recording from Stafford wanted. If anyone has a love recording of these or any other artist from Stafford please let me know. Also any live recording of Stafford all-nighters.

The topic is fine, just a bit of fun. John may have done a book but it is by no means definitive as you say.

Both sides cover up as Steve Mancha by Keb. Andy Dyson played "when The City Sleeps for awhile but not heard it since really....well not out and about. I have here and have used in Stafford podcasts

Butch's is a US acetate.

Was yours a US copy Pete?

Don't think anyone has said it wasn't known or played before have they?

Well the letter of "Authenticity" that goes with the boxed 45 had gone to at least sellers in France, Canada, Japan, Spain....UK. Then there are all the copies that went before he started presenting them in a presentation box with a letter of authenticity.

He did produce the record (Stardom), and the Highland one.

its a better record

I can hear him Marc, but you wouldn't know from Adam who it was if Cecil hadn't said he comes in there. You said as there is no Cecil in the photograph it can''t be them (referring to the Soul, Inc photo), I'm saying you won't find a photo of them with him in as he wasn't part of the group, he simply helped with harmony whilst arranging the record in the studio as have many arrangers and producers before him. Doesn't make it a Cecil Washington record, that does the group a disservice, IMO of course....of to listen to something decent to get this out of my head now.

I'll give you first two, as for singing there's a few singing harmony and not sure how you can tell who is who let alone distinguish Cecil's voice.

Even though he isn't necessarily a member of the group?

I have the ion and I used it from the mains and it still recorded slow. I simply have PC connected to my hifi set up.

No matter how anyone dresses this up that's probably all it should be John. And when Luckey tries do another 45 no one will trust him. He would have been far better selling all he'd got (which wasn't just a few either) for a reasonable price and keeping the trust of buyers. He has sent the letter of authenticity all over the world.

After just a few hours sleep since Friday I am too tired to keep getting involved in personal petty spats, either contribute the titles of Rare Records as that's what the topic is about or take it top PM's. Either way give it a rest.

Look it's a bank holiday knockabout topic simply wanting suggestions for the top 500 rarest records, not if they are sh*ite or whatever. Just for once can we have a discussion with out descending into the usual pointless arguments.
