Midnight Drifter

Awesome! Many thanks!

Hello all After this one in ex condition or better with clean labels. Thanks for taking a look!

Hey folks After years of contemplating whether to join mixcloud I finally did it and uploaded a Rock Steady Mix I recently compiled. So, here it is: https://www.mixcloud.com/MidnightDrifter/various-rock-steady/ Enjoy! P.S.: Will also do Soul mixes in the future.

I got the feeling that LPs are not seeing that rise in prices in JM auctions as 45s do.. could be wrong, maybe just me..

Yes, saw this last night.. RIP, king! The world is a sadder place now missing you and your unique humor. A genius and pioneer not only for Jamaican music but for music as a whole. One of the most influential musicians of the 20th century and the most important one in my book.

On a slightly different note - how would you sell a record with even an only minor crack?I'm asking because I was always reluctant selling these kinds as I'd be worried to death that handling by the Post would eventually break the record or at least enlarging the crack.. just out of curiosity.. The only way I see is to personally hand over the record.

Thanks for posting, always interesting to read the final bids and what prices one theoretically could get for records..

Compulsive obsessive disorder which some of us collectors might suffer from 😉

393 for Darrow Fletcher is a bit too steep as well.. I would have guessed maybe half of it or even less.. great tune, though

Although I'm not a big fan of mottoes myself I'd go with 'live and let live' in this case and others..

Is it just me or why exactly are they promoting the Orlons on the front cover??

This is one of many reasons why I rather buy here than on discogs, the major being a form of unspoken mutual trust on here..

Yes, but beware that you'll lose purchase protection then. I only do that occasionally when I 'know' the seller. I was bitten once I didnt pay too much attention and my money's gone..

Looking for an ex or better copy (issue only) with clean labels.. thanks for looking

Oh, that I don't know.. and a quick search didn't reveal anything.. my comment was referring to the authors.

Not much to add except it's not the first by the authorising team. They published the story of Jamaican prolific producer Bunny Lee a few years back. I will def order a copy!

Mark IV seems to have doubled as well.. Thank God the other one is so cheap

Yes, could very well be unique users (which is a quite common KPI in the web world)..

Sorry, maybe a stupid question but those are the total accumulated stats of all events since March 2020, right?

Very good point

Thank you so much for all the love and effort put in!! Last night's final instalment was absolutely great, really enjoyed it! A big thanks goes out to all involved, the ones behind the scenes, the DJs and everyone who tuned in over the last 15 or so months

Of course you're talking Soul records here, otherwise: Have you met sellers of Jamaican or even better, African records? As I do buy aforementioned records as well as Soul records, I must say I am quite happy with my UK sellers. And you surely will always find better and worse graders among them all, be it US, UK or whatever country they might sit in.

Thanks for taking the time to post these!

Hi folks Looking for an original issue in ex condition or better with clean labels. Thanks for looking! Alex

There is no simple answer to that question if you asked me. All his work and influence which is always interdependent with other people's work, etc. - a really complicated thing, you could write (more) books about it.. And after all, what does good or bad mean with regards to a man's character - this is a highly subjective matter. Personally, I would never find myself in a position to answer that question though it could be an interesting kick off for a long thread..
