Exactly Kev, them 6 or 7 or whatever number were out there before the internet. Back then you had probably three ways to find a record, lists, go to a venue or go to the states. Now the internet has done away with all those options and opened up the market wide world. As for jackie Day, how many copies would say known...30 to 50? still a very rare record by anybody's standard. If another 100 turned up it would still be a rare record and all those crying not a rare record I bet they wouldn't mind a copy, if only to sell for a grand.

why not just post the link to the topic where Rod has corrected you once already and posted the correct information (the link George has posted on your behalf I guess). You got all those facts from the scan that Andy Rix posted I guess, the scan of the disc that says it was the Originals. There are no original studio discs of this by the Detroit Prophets, just bootlegs of the Originals acetate.

I have some of those labels, Gilly gave them me along with some Washpan ones, came from Popcorn I think.

Exactly Kev, John might get a copy after a bit of keyboard work but it will no doubt be one of those already in circulation not another newly discovered copy. It isn't a common record, it is still a rare record.

Specials dunno....£200/£250??? Bit of interest in this one of late, few asked me about it.

I stopped bidding on them eventually, wasn't prepared to pay more than $150. He didn't even wait till he shipped one before relisting another. I doubt I have the last one in my ebay watch but I'll have a look and see if there's a date.

more recent than that Pete, I bid on some a few months ago, all from the same seller who had a box load, dunno how many. Don't think they were fetching $250/$300 at the time.

I've seen the very first goldmine which I have go for a three figure sum and one or two other close to that as well. I have man Kent but I wouldn't sell them as they have good booklets full of info. Might look to get rid of the goldmine though, maybe as job lot?

I've seen many of the goldmine cds fetch a decent amount, especially the early ones. I've most of the first 120 or so, wonder what they would fetch? never play then and besides all on iPod/mac. Dunno if I've got that one though.

You shouldn't keep brag about what you've got cause there's always someone better with better round the corner, and does having expensive originals make you better than others? Not in my book, I'd sooner see a collection thats taken imagination not a cheque book. And what has the venues you've attended got to do with experience and/or knowledge? F*ck all.

Dunno what the problem is but take it off line please. Giant, I asked you before is there any need for the type of posts you've posted on this topic, three and they've all been antagonistic. You got the reaction from Geeselad because of you original posts to MrsWoodsrules, what do you expect? Give it a rest please.

I think there's a clue in the photo "Bobby" uses for his avatar

There is a place for such discussions, it is called Look At Your Box. Unusual,obscure and rare, big ticket items are often discussed and others that fetch a daft price are discussed as well. Some think the best place for "live auctions" is ebay itself but there is no rule about posting of live auctions on this site regardless what some might say. But at the end of the day if going to post about an auction it has "in my opinion" got to be interesting and not posting run of the mill records with nothing out of the ordinary in the auction for the sake of it.

Managed to find a hour or two to record a few discs and put together another podcast instalment. All 70's, Crossover, dancers and the odd ballad, all good stuff and all affordable and relatively day to get hold off. To download this and the others I've down go to https://www.soulunderground.co.uk/blog/

there is no rule about posting live ebay actions even though some don't like it but what you posted as Bob said there is nothing out of the ordinary about them (though Hal Miller was about a ton on lists anyway, not sure what AOB fetches these days).

no problems and no need to apologise to me but if you take a read what you said it doesn't come across how you intended or as a joke except to those in the know. Maybe the odd emoticon/smiley might have given it a different appearance.

Is there really any need for posts like this? IMO no there isn't. Not everyone knows as much as you and posts like this are the best way to stop people participating on the site.

It might not be as rare as it once was but it ain't a common record either, it is still rare.

Seen thenm too Brett. Just do a google and you get plenty of option, not just in orange either. £69 at https://www.decks.co.uk/magma_homepage Let me know what it is like if you get one Brett.

Ticks all the boxes for me and I love it...remember Nick Brown would always spin it for me years ago. Too right as well Mr Flynnster, be boring if we all liked the same.

I've seen it for as little as £40 but have seen for more, £70 on a couple of occasions and higher on another. Thats within the last year and in boxes, not auctions.

What is on the flip? According to R&B Indies (I think) Tawney Vonne one side Kazia on t'other. Kazia released again later on with own flip.

I too have heard they were about very late Wigan but that always came from staunch Wiganites. Everyone else sez Stafford. Suppose if Rod and Dave say Stafford then we will have to take their word for it.
