In fact can't find any evidence that there has even been a lookalike reissue of this! NB. there is one on Ebay at £250, same as mine but M-. 14 days left and 10 watchers - now making me think I have underpriced!! If anyone wants to offer more than £120 feel free!!

Thanks for that - I did offer it but he wanted a minter so I thought I'd put it on here instead I have just been asked if it is a 100% original - I certainly thought it was and bought it as an original but how do you tell - anyone know? It looks like one to me - I have had it since the early 1990's when it was first popular and don't remember there being a lookalike reissue around that time. NB. in fact I described it incorrectly as a 'black type' issue but in fact it is like the one on the Youtube clip with red writing on a black oval shape. The runout groove says TTS 01504 STXS-0817-1 SS-01462 -L NIX if that means anything. Help appreciated!

Thanks for looking - PM if interested Postage £2.30 1st class recorded or £6.50 special delivery Youtube clip provided for reference only - not my copy Reasonable offers considered Paypal as gift Will refund in full within 7 days if not happy Sandra Wright - Midnight Affair / Wounded Woman (Truth) VG+ 120 'Black type' issue. Quite a few light marks under a strong light but plays great. Very slight ringwear to label on 'Midnight' side. Cheers, Chris.

Clean white label apart from two biro crosses on flip. 5) Kim Weston - A thrill a moment (Gordy) G but plays VG 15 Looks like a bus has run over it but plays pretty well - did me fine for a while until I got a better one Cheers, Chris.

For me First Taste of Hurt sits alongside a number of other high end crossover items that all seemed to take off around the same time c. 1993/4 i.e. George Hughley 'That's why I cry', Richard Caiton 'I like to get near you', Milton Parker 'Women like it harder', Chuck Cockerham 'Have I got a right', Lashawn Collins 'What you gonna do'. IMO I would trace it back to Rod Dearlove Voices / Canal Tavern, then probably 'across the board' venues like Pitches, plus 100 Club where Mick Smith was playing George Hughley for example. Also Richard Searling was playing FTOH plus numerous others of these on his Sunset Radio show around that time plus at early Cleethorpes w/enders so probably had a hand too Got my FTOH from John Powney in 1994 for £40, which was an unheard of sum from JP - worth every penny though!

Funnily enough have just sold Clay Hunt for the other side 'In the City Square' which I don't remember ever playing - almost wishing I'd kept it! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RAWsZpCt5AM

Not forgetting some really interesting ones posted on here previously by Derek Pearson i.e.

Love this thread and would really like to see more of these photos, being too young to have gone to Wigan myself NB. surprised no-one has mentioned Francesco Mellina's Wigan photos which were apparently shown at a do at the Wigan cafe / shopping centre (whatever it is) a few years ago - see link below for a few of them https://www.bbc.co.uk/lancashire/content/image_galleries/russ_gallery.shtml?10 I emailed Francesco about them ages ago and he said he has several hundred, including one of the dance comp / piano like the one here - interestingly he said they were all of the Sept '81 Wigan last night so is that what these are too?? Maybe he remembered it wrong. Said happy to publish them if anyone willing to pay but otherwise they are just in storage - fantastic quality though

Always liked Goldmine's Allnighter series (1-5), especially 1 which is a fantastic selection - Nolan Porter 'If I could', Kenny Wells 'Isn't it just a shame', George Freeman 'Down and out', Jimmy 'Bo' Horne 'Just can't speak', etc - really a top class CD

Sent you a PM Cheers, Chris.

Talking of Motown, always loved the drum sound on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UhwrSTWAHV8

Love the drum break in the middle of this one, The Bamboos - Tighten Up (Kay-Dee) Took the roof off at Cleethorpes a couple of years ago when Keith Money played it on the Sun night https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8oxZSgC-E4

Pat & The Blenders - Just Because / Instrumental (Fast Eddie) issue Looking for offers over £150 If I've done it correctly auction timed to finish this Thur 28th Nov at 10pm VG+ condition Quite a few light marks under a strong light but not affecting play NB. two small hairline cracks running from the middle (the hole) about 1cm inwards, and about 2cm apart. Not even noticeable unless you look closely, and nowhere near the playing surface so not affecting play at all. Great playing copy. Happy to provide full refund within 7 days if not 100% happy. Cheers, Chris.
