Couldn't agree more that it's about the music but my question was one I'd wondered about for quite a while. Away from records, I collect a number of different things were knowledge really does matter so when friends are asking the very question I asked before diving in and paying for an overpriced copy from "some greedy part-time collector" and I don't know the answer I thought I'd try and clarify it for them. As it is the prices have already started to tumble upon the news of the future release, something I've already shared amongst this group in the hope that those chasing it still can, make their own minds up as to whether or not to jump in or wait. Thanks for your first reply Chalky (If it is from the same master it will still be a first press. It will only be a reissue if a new master with a new matrix number etc is used. ) I didn't know that and so my knowledge of these things has increased.

Yes, I was wondering about that Dave. Do they have to make it clear its a second press? What has happened in the past? I know when sourcing records before the internet I've since learnt that a couple of mine have been second press/ re-issue and people even arguing/discussing which was first. As you say a lot of people, rightly or wrongly, have paid over and above initial selling price just to get one in their collection.

Possibly old news to a lot on here but a re-press is due in March. Some dealers already advertising and taking pre-orders. Lots more going up on Discogs and eBay mostly at reduced prices.

For anyone still looking for a copy. First one I've actually seen go to auction rather than the previous ’buy it now ’ option . https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F254073053912

7th edition says 1879 still at £75 but the 1932 version is £150 now.

My understanding as well philb. I have the 1879 version and for long enough looked for the 1932 version as well. Definitely saw/was offered more of the 1879 version than the other so just gave up in the end. The 1932 version always seems to be the dearer one and I'm sure in JM's latest price guide that is the case not that that proves anything!

Agree fully. Nothing over exciting as labels go but then it doesn't need to be as the record speaks for itself. That said, other than the cheap paper sleeve that most of us, I imagine, discard I'm sure you wont be disappointed.

I agree. Just thought I'd let you know.

Hi all, Anyone know what is the meaning of "Dj Re-service" on some record labels? The two random ones I've dragged of the net both look like your normal promo/demo and as you can see one says demo on it and one doesn't. Obviously sent out to Djs, radio stations etc but is there a different meaning to the wording that I don't know off? Or are they just effectively promos/demos but with a fancier description? Thanks in advance.

Another one has gone up on Discogs but it isn't cheap!

Did you play it early on at Alfreton on Sunday Mark? I know Mr Curtis opened his set with it and the two guys right at the end played it as well but I'm sure I heard it 3 times which, I know may by some be classed as bad form as in Dj's not listening to fellow Dj's sets and then repeating certain tracks but no complaints here .

Maybe contact this seller? Looks like he's sold more than one so may have more??

Ben Pirani, Ernie and the estimations, already mentioned, and so has another record on this label. So I'll throw another one into the hat!

Evening, Friend is after a copy of this on the 7" if anyone can help please? MCA issue from 82 is his first preference though If anyone's only got the promo from 81 and its not Discogs prices I'm sure he'd be interested. Thanks in advance.

This has had a couple of mentions in this discussion!! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Northern-Soul-VERY-RARE-Grace-Kennedy-Love-is-a-serious-Business/312303887963?_trkparms=aid%3D111001%26algo%3DREC.SEED%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D20131017132637%26meid%3D16d756ba07cf4c45af111641b86138eb%26pid%3D100033%26rk%3D1%26rkt%3D8%26sd%3D312303887963%26itm%3D312303887963&_trksid=p2045573.c100033.m2042
