PM'd you re: Rock Candy.

Looking for a clean (VG+ and up) original copy of the International GTO's on Rojac, please DM with set price/condition. Bell Sound stamp, vinyl not styrene, etc. etc. Thank you, D

Hello all, Looking for a clean (VG+ or better) original copy of this, not the '70s styrene boot. Both sides must play cleanly, photos and/or soundclip appreciated. Please DM set price and condition, thank you, D

Hello Dianne, thank you but I'm afraid that the MR-stamped one is the bootleg - "Monarch Recording". Originals are thick heavy vinyl (yours will probably be styrene) and have a "Bell Sound" stamp on the runout. Atb, Damian

Naturals - Color Him Father please Des, not sure if PM went through. Thank you.

Hello all, Looking for a VG+ or better original copy (not the boot with the crappy printing) of this one, please DM set price and condition if you've got one. Thank you, D

Looking for a clean original copy of this if anyone's got one.. please PM with price and condition. Thank you, D

Wouldn't mind one myself!

Soul Majestics... nailed it.. when I saw that last copy go for $800+ on eBay I just couldn't believe my eyes.

Great thread, found it just yesterday. First one that came to mind was TSU Toronados on Rampart. May have been rare at some point but there's probably a few hundred copies out there by now (with a new one going up on Discogs every week, it seems) and it still sells for 200-300 $/£. Top notch record whatever the case. It's probably also a good example of a record that people won't let go of once they have it in their collection - same as with Soul Brothers 6 on Fine, although that one seems to be more scarce overall. This is just personal impression from someone who hasn't been at this long, all of that said..

Thank you. I looked it up and it turns out I already have that on LP - but it's on some weird unheard of label called something like "Music on Vinyl" or "Vinyl Only Records" (?) or something to that effect, and sounds pretty bad - this is actually what I had in mind when I wrote about sound quality in my initial post. It sounds as if many of the songs had been lifted off badly worn 45's and not even on good gear, and then EQ'd to death to compensate (making it even worse). I can't imagine that a Goldmine CD would sound like this, I'll check out the samples online. ATB.

Thank you very much Rick. I believe I've actually got one of the "Where the Girls Are" volumes somewhere myself, on LP; I agree with your description, they weren't strictly soul, more girl group, but still an enjoyable listen from what I recall. I should fish it out from wherever it's hiding and give it a spin, it's been ages.

Will check it out thank you Dave.

Hello all, I'm looking for a nice, easy to find one-disc (CD or LP, would prefer LP) compilation of classy '60s female midtempo numbers.. nothing too "academic" or exhaustive, I want it as a birthday gift for a buddy who's liked this sort of stuff in the past when I've played it for him, something that lends itself well to casual listening. Doesn't have to be super-rare stuff either (I'd put sound quality before that, as I've heard a few really shoddy-sounding comps over the years). Can you guys think of any off the top of your head that might fit the bill? I don't do comps much and I'd rather go with a safe bet than start guessing.. Thanks! D

My copy will be worn out before the week is over. Can't stop playing it. FANTASTIC.

Hello all, Looking for a clean copy of this (VG+ up), would prefer Vows but open to either. Please DM price and condition if you've got one. Thank you, D

PM'd you about Companions, at least I think I have.

Hello all, Looking for a clean (VG+ up) Symbol copy, if you've got one please PM with price and condition. [M- or very clean LOMA copy could also work if you can provide a soundclip - I'm tired of buying NM styrene records that turn out to play like shit.] Thank you 🙂 D

Hello all and Happy New Year. I'm looking for a clean copy of this if anyone's got one - please DM price & condition. Thank you! D

Robert Taylor please, PM you in a bit.

Trying again with this one... VG+ or above preferred, don't mind a few clicks & pops but no worn out copies please. Fine with either light blue or green label. Please drop me a message with condition and price if you've got one to sell - thank you very much. Damian
