Bet the seller's spitting feathers now that the bidding's stopped so abruptly , I messaged him regarding the listing and his reply was pretty short , on the lines of "what do I know , I sell games not records" ... so no sympathy coming from this direction ...

No ... it's worth about £25.00 ... it sits at £144 because bidder "S***-" thought it was real and was about to snaffle the steal of the century ... now he's done a little research (or seen this thread) and got out before getting his fingers burnt ... leaving the other poor sap with the bill ...

https://www.popsike.com/soul-funk-45-DON-GARDNER-Cheatin-Kind-What-Now-My-Love-on-Sedgrick-HEAR-re/141401431549.html Got to £146 at one point then that bid disappeared and it reverted to £144 , seems as though some have seen sense ...

Guessing from your vigorous defence (and the addition of extra info not in the original listing) that the seller's a mate of yours ... ?

It's the opening paragraph that has me baffled ... a few gaps methinks ... ?

Going to be "Comedy Sale of the Week" methinks , already topped a ton ...

We ought to start running some kind of sweepstake on the side of some of these e-bay listings , tanner a go to see who gets nearest to the finishing price , winner takes all ...

I don't doubt it for a minute , only decent pic I can find is in JM's Million Dollars book which has nice crisp print and a pronounced 'dip' ... There'll be some red faces if it is though ... Mind you the boot'll probably make £500 if recent activity is anything to go on ...

Just seen this amongst a pile of odds and sods , looks legit but I'm doubtful , well out of my league if it's a real one ... https://www.ebay.com/itm/Don-Gardner-Cheatin-Kind-What-Now-My-Love-Sedgrick-3001-7-Single-/351572968789?hash=item51db61c555:g:aeUAAOSwhcJWPh6g

If you listened on a bit Tim tells you ...

If it had been out around the same time it'd have been passed over in favour of Towanda for sure , too "nice" not enough balls ... Bit like Dana V. vs Five and a Penny , same song but miles apart ...

Soul 35003 is Jr Walker - "Satan's Blues" so obviously a wrong'un ...

Easiest way is to upload the video to YouTube and then share a link from there .

Can't find a clip of Michael Jay - I'm Falling on Peco , but there's another version by Michael Jay Coleman - I'm Falling For You on SS7 here ...

Well , barring a yet to be announced final flight , today was the last opportunity to see this magnificent machine doing her thing , in the sky where she belongs ... Luckily it was just a Sunday afternoon jolly not a "working" flight as they were a couple of miles off the pre-published flight path . This meant that the 300mm was barely adequate but at least I got to say goodbye with her roaring by ... 108 roughly cropped and stitched into a movie of sorts. https://youtu.be/s2N6jP4ZXiw?t=1s

Oh yes you can ... Personally I use the Servisol FC30 from Maplins , works great on CDs too ...

Just been trawling through the reams of data collected on Sunday night , had to have my first play with 'Layers' in Gimp to compile this one ... Full resolution ... http://www.astrobin.com/full/215849/0/?real=&mod= ( well not really full res as the original TIFF file ran out at 900Mb ... !!! ) The Mono images are all single frames and the two colour images are both stacks of 150 or so.

Please do show , it was too great a sight to not post ... If it makes you feel better I'm rubbish at close-up things like flowers ...

Was bloody hard work staying up all night Sunday for the Lunar Eclipse after being up all night Saturday at the 100 Club anniversary , but as a Soul fan and an astronomer I hadn't much choice ... Well worth the effort though as it capped off a great weekend , thanks again to Ady and the gang for the continued madness , hope the bubbles were OK ... Shot a pre-eclipse tester to make sure everything was connected correctly and focus nailed before grabbing 350 frames at 15 second intervals for a timelapse of the first half between 02:00 and 03:40 before firing off 170 rapid frames for a 'totality' shot at 03:50. Pre-eclipse tester ... Full size ... http://www.astrobin.com/full/214513/0/ Totality Blood-red Full Moon ... Full size ... http://www.astrobin.com/full/214815/0/ Timelapse of the first half of the eclipse , should have held my nerve and stuck with one exposure really ... Now time to catch up on the sleep methinks ...
