J.J Barnes had Ric Tic recordings released in the U.K. by Motown, Please Let Me & Real Humdinger

Turned out I was right it has gone for over £5,000 just

With a day to go someone has already bid £4,500 for it , I think it will go for over £5,000 , possibly over six grand

RIP Dean Parrish,forever part of the NS scene it's really good that he came to know of his popularity in Britain & had the opportunity to appear live here but it's a shame that I'm On My Way sold a million copies in the years after its release on U.K. Records & Dean never received a penny in royalties

Well done Richard you deserve it

Gloria and Towanda Barnes are the same singer though the lp version is a different recording/mix from the single on A & M I think the A & M is an original perhaps someone who knows for sure could tell us

I bought this album in the seventies just to get you don t mean it before I realised there was a single djs probably only want the single and the re issue will effect the price e.g. I would buy the cheaper format now as it's the music i m interested in not what label it's on

Always hated Condition Red Seven Day Lover one of the greatest records ever played on the scene a SOUL record not just a northern soul record no what I mean

Actually it was Dexy s Midnight Runners singing Jackie Wilson Said and according to Kevin Rowland it was nt a cock up it was his idea to use the Jocky Wilson video for a laugh

Too many to choose from really but here goes my favourites r Otis Redding David Ruffin Levi Stubbs J J Barnes Jackie Wilson Edwin Starr Also in my opinion Levi Stubbs ' vocal performance on the acapella version of Ask The Lonely is the best of all time truly awesome

I ve always liked Los Canarios and Keanya Collins but the rest are mostly dire particularly What Love Brings Kenny Bernard sounds out of tune was nt it reissued on Pye Disco Demand with Glad All Over - Leon Young Strings on the flip side heard that at the Torch which just shows every venue played awful pop records at times

Who needed booze when everyone was blocked

One for sale on discogs for a grand and that s the asking price not the result of an auction also see Try My Love went for £800 surely the average collector can t afford these prices unless there selling records from their collections to raise the. Cash

Apologies dave if people think I m u I should ve used a pseudonym When I post in future I ll make it clear it's the DM from Stoke on Trent Unless u r. Also from Stoke lol

Northern soul definitely a scene not a genre all different styles of soul played over the years and let s face it some awful pop records Gary Lewis Hawaii five-0 Joe 90 , etc

Why should nt people auction what records they want if someone s willing to bid so much that s up to them and the copies sold by John r in good condition some people try to sell records in any state saw a stateside demo of This Diamond Ring that looked as if it been left out in the rain priced at £180

Re the superiors and the tymes same title but totally different songs

Bought bootlegs myself in the 70s only way obtain some sounds then i know it was wrong but no excuse today plenty of legal sources today if all u want 2 do is listen 2 to the music

P s it was nt my copy

Uptown lp Gloria Barnes sold on manship today for £596 fantastic price

There was a copy of this for sale on discord priced at £700

Crazy price but records are worth whatever Some one is prepared to pay but if there buying as an investment their liable to get their fingers burned if and when the market collapses

I have an orginal copy of Gloria Barnes s Uptown album bought it at Tiffany s Newcastle under Lyme in the 70 s. Does anyone have any idea how much it might be worth

Only go the signal night cos they play some classic Motown early doors and the wife likes the disco stuff later on have to comprise sometimes
