bout £75 innit?

and how often do you see Sam Dees for sale? and do you think it's worth £500? obviously is to the one who paid that amount but don't you think if he'd asked say on here he (or she) would have got one for maybe £150/£200 cheaper?

anyone got a soundfle of the cherries on della? and as I've not got most of my stuff with me a soundfile of the Valentinos too please

Usually see it for around £150 in boxes and lists. Most would probably say worth half that really, like Ted said was a cheap record not so long ago and not that particularly rare.

think it's a good record but fed up with hearing it

mut 'ave done Ken

gotta agree with the OTT price. £300 JM sold them for would be about right,

must have been another auction John, memory ain't what it was... remember seeing it go somewhere for quite a lot then another appearing on hear.....or maybe I'm just losing it all together

I know what it's worth (well IMHO) but pretty sure the £800 asking price was prompted by a large amount paid on either e-bay or JM auction. Usually see it for around £400.

think the last one I saw was on here for around £800.

The lead singer on Lonely Lonely was Roy Haggins, The lead on the flip is David Jones. Morris was in the group, Robert Jones being the 4th member. Roy sounds very very much like Morris but if you really listen and compare you can hear the difference.

I had some Deon Jackson ones somewhere, Thats What You Do To Me.

Gilly and Tats. I'll check when i get chance to see what the acetate Gilly had says.

Quite believable if you ask me. Been in the same room as two copies of Bernadine - Fred & Turbines on Cenco, same room as 4 copies of Linda and Pretenders - Believe Me on Assault, both records far rarer than Jimmy Mack. Could think of other examples too.

got some spins mid 80's/Stafford era.

I think it's worth the money, hardly ever seen for sale, last one was on e-bay and went for close to four figures if memory serves me right. Cracking record too.

by the lp...cost you a lot less (£30/£40) and you get the bonus of several other tracks too

David Blatt who sang with the Empires replaced Traynor on lead in '63. Blatt became Jay Black apparently. Which Empires not sure. Plenty of info on the web about the group, just google the group name.

think the last one I saw other than auction was around £800, can't recall which take it was. Did JM auction one for around a four figure sum?

anyone got scans of both presses?

I'd like to see proof of it being '65 Just checked R&B Indies and it lsits the Candi label as being 1961-1963 and the Chavis label as 1962. Soul Harmony lists the Matadors as 1963 and the Empires on Candi as '62 and '63 and on Chavis as '62. They could be wrong of course.

yes, one with backing one without, sure I've posted both in refosoul in the past.

only got the Have Mercy On me side Ady.....thought I had other side too

I'd be interested in seeing the list Pete.

not watched the clip but presme it's the one from The Beat, 60's music show....all out on DVD. Some great acts on 'em.
