just general info in case you didnt know. this record reached no 29 on the pop charts in the usa so a few pressing plants were used hence the different typeface...it was reissued on capitol starline series in the early seventies all with the spoken monologue....the uk copy misses the spoken monologue and goes straight into the song dave

no they were 100% expensive when they first turned up. the first time i saw one was a harrogate soul club with john manship..he had a copy. said he`d never seen it before..i asked him how much it was and he said £150. granted it was only a matter of weeks before people were buyin them for half that and less

a mate just gave me a dusty box of 45`s from a house clearance..its full of pop stuff n crap.. but stuck in the middle was a copy of this on uk stateside..which is nice dave

thankfully for every great expensive record theres an equally good cheap un

the gold ones were done from the original plates that popcorn had...whether popcorn did them or someone else got hold of the plates and did them i dont know. but i do know that the gold stamped copies didnt exist before 1998, besides the actual vinyl is different even tho the orig plate was used and the type face is new. no one had seen a gold copy before 1998 then suddenly they were everywhere selling for £150+. i think a green copy had already sold for four figures by that time...whatever..there is only one original issue ..the gold one is a re issue, 2nd issue..boot whatever you want to call it..but its not `real` mind you in these days where people pay good money for reissues ( see tempests or comedy sale threads) does paying £60 for a gold one seem too extreme dave

you bought that from me didnt you pete..four great tracks on it and a nice picture sleeve.................and rare

its still ok bob..but it was much better in the days before price guides and ebay took off

pye demo £25/30 i think col its books at more but probably go for less on ebay but you never know.. if your thinkin of selling ask pete smith he knows his onions on uk stuff

only the once on pye international in 1971 with goin back to detroit on flip......only got the uk stateside lp of goin back to detroit myself now

always been an expensive record in the uk with northern soul fans bob. i paid £400 the best part of 20 years ago for it tho i was probably mugged

ooh you cant stop looking joan..ive had four parcels drop thru my door this week all orig 60.70`s vinyl and non over a fiver

i think we`d all buy the top flight rarities if we were minted. as it is you just have to be the best that you can be and be happy and satisfied with it

with the help of superglue and some sticky tape on the flip it might dave

it certainly did joan. john may have been a little dissapointed with the end auction result. if there was a 3rd party involved if it were me i would be pissed. i rate it at £1200 and i think its been held back by these gold represses just my opinion of course which dont mean shit dave

yes fozzybomb..thats the seller.. it says his name at the bottom of the page in the ebay link.....the only consolation for him if there is one is that he will probably have owned the demo from new

it does beggar belief why loads of unreleased stuff never even made it onto LP`s rather than some of the poor cover versions

nearly $1000 dollars and it looks danced on....copies have gone for over £2000 on ebay. it seems to always fetch more for a clean copy on ebay than when JM auctions it which he has twice as i remember

yes and when they were done they were selling for over £100

is this the guy that has that shop in blackpool dave

i agree its not an auction item azza..worth 150 notes tho
