I'll follow up on that, thanks. I must admit I rarely listen to podcasts and radio stations. There's always something else to do. I'm new really to buying reggae though have bought the odd record down the years and had a very small 12" collection but lately I've been buying a lot. In my head something fresh and something easy on the pocket [£5-25 usually]. Still buy soul albums [mainly 2-step] and cheaper end of Northern 45s but I'm usually familiar with those tracks so excitement of something new is not there. Get them and just slot them into the others. Spend most of my time going through Discogs and seeing what's for sale and playing those I don't know [most !] on YT. Unlike the NS scene you can get a nice track for £1.99

Veering more toward Roots. I'm more into a soulish type thing. Got this 12" by him too

Been buying mainly 70's/80's reggae

I get what you're saying but we've all bought stuff to mark up. This is just on a huge scale.

Slippery slope, mate. Clare demanded I buy her twin decks for dj-ing. Luckily I managed to replace one deck with a hot plate so at least it wasn't a complete waste of money as she can still rustle up a hot snack if I get peckish during her spot.

Not that Pauline Bradshaw again. I said ages ago standards were bound to drop once we allowed female sellers access to our closed shop.

That was sold at M- ? VG or less IMO. So am I right in thinking you're saying he's a conservative grader and if you're happy with UK sellers grading [a lot of which is ambitious to put it politely] you'd be very happy with Jason's ?

The 45 on Capitol is "Reach out". From '69 according to Discogs Used "Listen to me" from '67 as b-side. Not sure if same track or re-recorded it.

EX UK is VG++ USA isn't it ?

But his ads contain his grading scale. According to him VG is not NM ?

Lou is darkhorsesmoke

He sells a lot on consignment doesn't he ? Open to abuse. A lot of the listings are VG and below. Lucky if it's VG+ and above. Prices he gets for common albums in poor condition baffles me. Tbh I just scroll past nowadays.

A £2 starting bid

Aside from all of that, it doesn't look or sound like a Detroit record to me. Come on ! It's round with a big hole ! I thought it was common knowledge it was West Coast which is why I upticked your post.

Just thought you'd wade in with that one did you ? And surely "birth sleeve" ?

I did and if it wasn't for such gullible buyers my ternover would be a lot less.

So that was you ? I knew someone was orcestrating that site behind the scenes.

Meh ! I've been running a site for the sale of extinct seabirds for 40 years and let me tell you madam it's a great auktion !

I once saw an Oldham Tinkers album in Rochdale but then I don't get around much.

Do seem a tad unrealistic but then I listen to this gem. And I begin to think that the buyers of Lyndell and Simon each got a bargain if the alternative is this Ides of March/Blood Sweat & Tears soundalike on offer elsewhere at more than twice the price.

Thanks lads. I was wondering too.

It's a great record of which I have four different copies but I guess overplayed in some venues.

Sorry not for me. No melody, poor vocal and beat ain't right.
