Just seen a 12" Alfie Davison on John Manships auction. was lucky enough to get mine off a very well known dj mint with no noise at all. But how many of the 12" Version exist i had to wait years before I got mine. I have collected 12" versions since the 80's some are hard to find . Ie King Tutt. Would like to hear from others who collect them . 1 that eludes me is Larry Houston, let's spend some time together.

Never thought of it like that. But yes that is an awesome way to put it. Got married in 89 had twins got back into scene in 2013/14 i have bought hundreds more records than I did in 1980/1988 Mm just a thought if I sold my cars i could buy more records 🤔

Would like to add the following comment. As we get older a lot of people get spare income as they progress up the management ladder etc. Finished paying for mortgage etc. Children left home. And if they see something that they want they will pay/bid over the normal price because they couldn't afford it the first time round. This happens to anything collectable. Music, Records of many genre, art, fashion ie old trainers etc. Old cars etc. Ie Escort Cosworths. The more spare income there is the higher the prices paid. It's only a thought !!

Don't forget that the coloured releases on casino classics are worth a fortune 🤣🤣 Sorry couldn't resist it ✊️✊️✊️ktf lol

Thank you. I'll give it a try 😉

Just seen this post .. went to see what is available, clicked on 2 records but show at full price when I go to check out??

Hi Roburt. You are an amazing source of info on this site. I've just ordered the book Many thanks Mick

Just been talking to my sister, she's having a good day and she's told me about the artists that we're on there also she started to tell me about il rondo another club in Leicester with loads of live acts. In the 80s I used to get my sister to take me to hinckley allniters after I had finished work as a chef in a pub or cleethorpes if we were at our caravan on the east coast.... It now explains why she said be careful what you take and make sure you know who it's coming from.. I now wonder what she did to stay awake although she denies it lol. At a niter in the 60s when everything was available 💊💊lol

Only knew him to say hello to. But still want to send regards to his family and friends. Too many soulies going to that big allniter in the sky as we get older x

Thanks Roburt really appreciate that... She did mention that there were lots of acts that she had seen at the nite owl. But because of her stroke sometimes she will remember and sometimes she doesn't. So I was surprised she remembered long after tonight is all over..

Ok I'm 60. My big sister is 76 and she used to go to the night owl allnighter in Leicester in the 60s.. and we were talking records earlier as she loves Dusty Springfield what's it gonna be And then she says do you you know long after tonight it's all over by her . I say no as she streams a new version of the three before eight classic. I've learned something new, and it's not a bad version

I'm very well thanks. Hope you are ok. Had my records out for the first time in years a while ago. I had forgotten that I still have forest fire on main street plus many old Oddfellow plays. Delcos, Bobby Smith, Anita Humes,Caviar,Veda to name a few.

Totally agree. I will admit been to stoke lots with my son it spoils it when you know what is coming next.. used to love listening to a spot ( say Gary Rushbrooke at Oddfellows) and he would play lord sitar cover up and would run to the floor and dance my arse off lol

Totally agree.. play the record at the speed it was produced and pressed for playing 👌
