Hi, got a mint issue if you want it, Mr Manship says 40, so its yours for 25 if you like, cheers, Mark.

Janine, Yeah I've still got it, at the time Rob sold it to me there were only two, that one and Tim Brown had one.That was about '93 I think. Keith Money got one not very long after me, then one of the Aberdeen lads as well. I thought then loads would turn up, as people in Scotland were starting to get thier hands on copies reasonably quickly. Looks like I was wrong!

Rob certainly played the Hyperions c/u as Escorts-"I'm so in love with you" in the early 90's at Allanton and the Claremont amongst other places.The post earlier on this thread saying how he never got the recognition he deseved was spot on. The unknowns he had were friggin' incredible. We wre lucky Rob enjoyed our local night at the Claremont and was happy to come up to Edinburgh regularly playing unissued Groovesville stuff, "Love on a leaseplan", the original acetate of Four Larks "You need love",etc..brilliant toons that were certainly appreciated by those in attendance. Rob put the Soul Inc. track on a tape we gave away 50 copies of as an anniversary thang, c/u as Cecil Washington "It will Last", the following month everyone was talking about it and the track became a big sound. I was lucky enough to buy the record from Rob a few months later and was mighty impressed when the c/u label came off to reveal Cecil had written the song and the Propnonics Studio address around the label.
