Personally prefer Sandy because it remains under played whereas Gene makes an appearance at most soul nights.

Sandy Wynns is an interesting one. JM in his ‘Million Dollars of Rare Soul’ book rates it as rarer than Gene Toones on same label so guess just north of £350 looks like a good price.

Wish I’d have known about it!

Holy grail record in my book. Both sides are superb. If money was no object!

I called up yesterday and spoke to the always helpful Stella. Both orders (28/12 and 06/01) arrived today in one parcel with a p&p refund. Well worth the wait!

Just finished reading article in Saturday’s Telegraph. Attached relevant pages if anyone interested in perusing.

That’s Gary Dennis not Spencer?

Saw Glynn last night. Records in stock now and mailing out has started.

Postage is high. I’ve got two orders outstanding with £15.95 for three 7’ records and £12.95 for one 7’ being charged for p&p. Value of both orders is about the same. Now I’m aware that this covers special delivery and insurance, but still fair bit higher than I’m used to paying. It goes without saying that neither website order has progressed beyond ‘processing’ stage on his web site with first being made on 28/12 and second on 06/01. My advice would be to put half price sale on hold now and not wait until end of the month. That way last 3 weeks orders can be cleared without the distraction of loads more orders coming through in next two weeks.

Laid back Mid tempo 60s male vocal with opening line something like….’I’m afraid to love you afraid for the heart I wear’ Anyone help identify?

We’ll be there.

After an original promo or issue on Future Stars in VG+ or better condition. PM me if you can help.

Saw him at Culcheth two weeks ago. Played a great set.

Tragic news. Great taste, an absolute gent and a good friend. Thoughts are with his nearest and dearest.
