Frankie Lymon - I'm Sorry
Think the one you saw go Through ebay might have been one of those we know about? It is on another label Andy found that one as well, forget the label name.

The Sparkels - Try Love
Wasn't there one for just over a ton on here not so long ago? About £250 IMO, not as though it is a rare record. Once saw about seven copies in a record room one night.

Mixed Emotions
I actually found the old posts and emails the other day that Elijah posted in the original topic about his record.

Most Brits I know call them boots......

Isn't it 25 years after recording that a recording comes into public domain in Belgium and Holland??? I was told that is why some records that are boots were pressed there.

Richard Searling At Wigan Casino
I cannot for the life of me remember who it came from Tony but I don't remember Dennis giving me a recording of Wigan. There was two or three tacks on the tape from Inky Social Club as well.

I did/do know this Pete but I couldn't for the life of me remember yesterday. I will amend when I get the chance. The recording is interesting for Richard trying to sell a second copy of Vickie Baines

Record Price Mentality
I've always championed/played cheap records in my sets, possibly has something to do with me being a Yorkshire man I've had some come up to the decks ask what a record is then the price and when told 20 or 30 quid have returned ten minutes later with a big smile on their face and the record in their hand having been in the record bar and bought one, makes it all worthwhile.

I Found This Interesting Paris ( The Whoosie) Sleepless Nights
I've listened to Hazel Martin and Paris I would say they are not one and the same, similar voices but that is all IMO. Might be an idea to change the topic title to reflect the topic subject?

Record Price Mentality
Wise words John Far too many nowadays who have to follow the flock rather than do their own thing and too much quality ignored because it is cheap and expensive crap is put up with simply because a DJ can say "look what I've got".

What Are The Top 10 Most Expensive Uk Releases From T' 70's-80's?
Probably cause you dont seem to listen It shouldn't have to state "Soul" you are on a "Soul" forum. I'm sure there is a forum to discuss the sex pistols somewhere if you so wish.

Frankie Lymon - I'm Sorry
Yes. It was rumoured to exist for a long time but was never seen until these turned up. It will no doubt exist in the collection of some doowop collector stateside.

Richard Searling At Wigan Casino
About 30 minutes of Richard at Wigan, recorded by one of the Chesterfield crowd. The Mansfield crowd aren't far away and can be heard when Richard plays them a track. https://www.mixcloud.com/Chalkster/wigan-casino-richard-searling/

The only copies I know of are owned by Tim Brown and Andy Dyson. Not saying there aren't others.

Is This Original ?
I presume this was locked by the topic starter? If you are going to lock a topic then can you please say so and maybe a brief reason why just so it avoids any confusion.

Four Voices On The Gold Label
Just saying how "some" view certain reissues Bob over here.

Four Voices On The Gold Label
Bob I couldn't care what it is really to be honest, I would never buy one not for what people ask for it. I certainly wouldn't pay £40, £50 or £60 for something that should cost a tenner tops. Any other "reissue" is a tenner so why is this four or five times more expensive, even more in some cases? There seems to be far more copies about than other "reissues" as well. Some simply don't like reissues done purely to exploit the UK Northern Soul Scene and collectors, legit or not. As I understood the owner didn't press them but gave his permission, either way I have no real interest in it. As for Dave's response he will have to tell you why he was curt, maybe it's the Yorkshire man in him coming out, we like to get straight to the point.

Four Voices On The Gold Label
I think what Dave is getting at Bob is this is considered nothing more than a legalised boot, done purely for the purpose of exploiting the Northern Soul scene rather than ensuring the owner gets what he deserves.
