Wouldn't be so bad if the scruffy f*ckers didn't use the chairs to clean their shoes at the end of the night

Two great sides on the Matt Brown, actually prefer the flip. I thought I'd seen a want for this last week or so but can't see one in wants!!

There was a previous topic in which John Parker said he has the acetate now???

I've had the following message from a family member of Darryl "Cappy" Lewis giving the sad news that he recently passed away. If you have any further questions shout up and will do our best to get them answered.

Be interesting to see. Vg- no use to anyone but a collector looking for this really, will do till an upgrade comes along I suppose.

Bit f*ck*d but one the evilbay now.... https://www.ebay.com/...#ht_2081wt_1413

Nope, totally illegal, some of those belong to major companies as well. Would have thought it is technically illegal to compile and give away without permission, you should get permission/obtain rights to use any copyrighted track. Ady or Paul Mooney will be able to tell us more.

You have nothing to worry about Bob, plenty of others come across as jerks at times.

When Fryer raised this in January the site tried to resolve the situation between Fryer and Biggs to no avail. Due to this Biggs/Shiptown's account was closed, he is no longer a member.

I remember mate. It is always in my box (well most of the time) but not been out for sometime though.

200 plus...?

you can keep many of your 1000 quid plus records, not many can compare with this. As good as it gets for a tenner.

Greety did a great set at Lifeline Has the knowledge and experience, something no amount of money or hot box can buy.

Dunno why it isn't showing in searches Pete. Take what you've been offered Pete, nothing to do with anyone else really.

It's not unknown Pete, well maybe to some of those who returned to the scene? It has had plays over the years, especially the 80's. Price, I guess what Dave said.

Exactly many were done to make money on a trend rather than for the love of the music, not saying they didn't love the music who did them but my guess is the motives were money for many of them.

My reply wasn't a direct reply to you, think we posted at same time. I once collected all the original Grapevine series, good set to have but I wouldn't collect Destiny, Disco Demand or Casino Classics. Guess it is up to the individual what they collect. I didn't collect UK, still don't, Grapevine was the only UK label I collected (except Kent).

Many of the modern day UK issues are considered nothing but legal boots by some and those that play them out are frowned upon. Unissued material different again and playing of these accepted.

Thats why I suggested an updated stand alone price guide for those that do carry stuff like this, JM PG 5th addition can be a bit big to carry about. If an updated boot guide was to be done maybe it could be pocket sized?

all depends if you want to carry one or t'other about with you, if you do the boot guide would be better. Maybe about time a separate updated boot guide was issued with the scans in with the details and not having to go looking for the scan to compare with the data.

The original is the first press. Later presses are re-issues. MCA purchased Decca in the 60's.

He doesn't know so he is asking, not everyone is clued up.

Basically original vinyl is a 45 (or LP) in it's original format, it's first release, more often than not a local release. This then moves on to national release if picked up by a major. Then follows a re-issue if demand follows or becomes a hit a few years down the line and a re-press is needed. The release of Richard Searling's isn't considered an original by the majority of collectors or DJ's although it will be legit. The original release is on Sandbag. There are other boots and releases of this too. Bootlegs and re-issue make buying a nightmare for those who don't know the difference. The best thing top do if unsure is ask on here, you will get an answer pretty quickly.
