just a coincidence Mal, the mercury acetates played long before Kent got into Ben Lee and likewise for Tim & the Goldmine cd.

Butch's copy is a Mercury acetate, Tim Brown has another Mercury acetate, don't think there is much difference in tempo etc, different intro and different lead singer. Butch (and tim) has played his for years, long before it was put out by Dave Brown. Not heard him play it for a while though.

think there's been many a biggie since this one Vince, might pack the floor but so does the snake

I suppose BB holes are are part of the territory that goes with collecting rare records. I don't know a dealer who downgrades because of them and many don't even mention them.

get on the shop floor (so to speak), see this regularly in boxes cheap as chips.

I know the photo not great but anyone recognise anybody in it?

Another cheap and great Jimmy Robins is Once In A Lifetime/Lonely Street - Tangerine, two for the proce of one

Three off the shelf..... Kip Anderson - Thats All I Can Do - Excello Jerry Washington - Set Your Soul On Fire - Excello Garnet Mimms - Prove It To Me - UA

magic double sider Kenny boy

Lifeline never given away any freebies Ken or was it someone in the record bar?

Lucky Laws - Who Is She - Onederful Willie Harper - But I Couldn't - Alon Precisions - What I Want/Why Girl - Drew

Remember him putting on a great show at Yarmouth early 90's. Would be nice to see him over here once again as he does have a great set of songs to offer. He does have a lot of affection for the "faithful" as he calls us. Anyone else with any memories of him, would be great to give him something to read.

Eddie celebrates his 64th birthday today! Many happy returns Eddie. He also celebrates 54 years in show business. Eddie is also looking to do some shows over here, any interested promoters out there?

There are two or three mercury acetates. They have different intros and different lead vocalist if memory serves me right. As far as I know the pressings are legit, done by Dave Brown in Philly.

Ronny Shannon - Determination - Ston Roc Wilson Pickett - How Will I Ever Know/Best Part Of A Man - Wicked Clarence Ashe - She Said I'd Be A Failure - J&S

Don't think it is, think he sells from home now. Not 100% mind so don't take my word for it.

I remember that one too

it's not only the cost of records, what about the expense in getting there? The petrol alone can cost £40/£50 depending on how far you go.

aye I know he is, all i can say good job Andy or Kev weren't there at the time.

Sure I saw one sold at Sheridan's for around £400, that was up to 5/6 years ago.

I've been plugging away with this for the last few years and it's finally starting to get the reaction it deserves. Was around £250 couple of years ago, thats the price last one I saw but you rarely see it for sale.

it could be worse, they could make him go in the R&B room and sit him with you Webby Torture doesn't come into it

sorry Tim, all a blur at times, dunno why Would love to see the flyers if you get the time to scan and post

don't think it's your PC, the scans are each over 2meg, I should have reduced them but our lass is tapping her feet waiting for me to take her out after me being out all weekend
