does appear to be quite a hard one to obtain...........anybody got a stock copy dave

and how many other fairmount releases came out on rouser dave

an original white demo only went for £300 on ebay last week....................we came 2nd dave

also came out in the uk in 1978 on creole. made number 44 on the pop charts.i bought it when i was still at school but i still love it dave

it was quite a big hit locally in detroit and made the national r and b charts. so maybe coz it made some noise. decca who bearing in mind tried to put out darrell banks over here via london tried their hand with it. maybe they thought they had the rights to it and thought maybe no one would notice............... can you see what im getting at altho i would have said france belgium or holland were more obvious choices dave

lol My thoughts entirely .a great record tho anyway dave

£125 ish or just sell it to the bloke thats made you an offer pete dave

bearing in mind before the internet came along.it was a hard record to get. it took me 8 years to get mine but ebay and the like has opened everything up.the thing with showstopper is actually finding a copy in good shape. most of the copies on ebay are trashed but then you all know that also the other thing its got going for it its not a bad double sider . wouldnt have thought it would go up much more tho dave

yes it was issued. ive had 3 demos and one issue. one of the demos had a date stamp on it october 71 i think. i kept the cleanest demo for myself. wish id kept the issue now although the flip side was poor. i sold it to either joe lakin or derek greenhoff for £25 dave

gary smelt of blacknight records had a stock copy but that was 15 years ago. dont know if this is the same copy. i would have thought there would be more than one copy. although its very rare its on a nationally distributed label dave

still keeps cropping up on ebay tho as regular as it always did dave

its van mccoys version.readily available on an lp but it came out on an italian only 45 its quite difficult to track down now but ive had 5 copies all sold to local jocks in the doncaster/barnsley area. kept one myself tho. dave

should have no trouble getting a percy and them.one on ebay every other week and it never sells for more than a ton.suprised john auctioning it, but as its been said before.some people are just too idle and dont look hard enough dave

aound the year 2000 i swapped my cecil washington and the tomangoes for a vivian carol merben w/d.............. what was i thinking about. still beat myself up over it dave

i agree. most of the records on the northern scene are way overpriced and not that rare IMVHO. as a bit of a collector/dj im currently on my 3rd copy of bernard williams and sam dees. I sold my betty lloyd for £50 when it bottomed out some years ago ive never got round to buying it back mainly coz i cant afford the £300 to buy it back and i wouldnt pay that for it anyway. if you have stacks of money you can petty much buy 95% of the records ever played on the northern scene.my own experience has told me that youd get them in a couple of months and the rarer ones would follow within a year dave

1900 yesterday reached number 34 on the US hot 100 in june 1970 ive only got the betty everett lp on UNI..............miles better anywayIMVHO used to get played at virtually every "PITCHES" do circa 1994/95. i never missed one never really been a do in rotherham as good since. bout time those days came back dave

looks like a jamaican release to me from the type face. some calla releases came out on jamaican stateside.ive got jean wells "with my love"on stateside.i wish i could scan it and post it up but i aint got the knowledge yet dave

bernard williams went for nearly $600 2 weeks ago on ebay..... dont think its any commoner than say sam dees "lonely"or betty lloyd.john got £500 for sam dees other week didnt he? dave

roy haggins was a very good impersonator then. better than spyder turner IMVHO was it roy singing with the vows or another morris impersonator dave

"quote" Just listen to Spyder Turner - Stand by me then tell me you know who the vocalist is. Regards Paul I see what you mean there paul.spyder does impersonaions of top soul stars of the day on the stand by me album. but not on the 45, well not on the french ep anyway dave

not morris chestnut on the soundmasters .and it says his name on the record well it does on my copy any way. and whats that old saying."believe half of what you see and none of what you hear" .id sooner believe what my old 45s tell me rather than someone relying on 40 year old memories when they probably cant remember what they had for breakfast dave

thought it was a boot from the mid 90s.dont know who did em tho dave

If this is a photo of the Magnetics on Bonnie then we have proof that they are a different group and share no indervidual member as I can see no resemblence to any member of this photo with the photo's I have of the Volumes. Regards Paul

playing your games baby is an absolute peach of a choon by the late mr white. perfect early doors tune dave

youre my life is the "A" side of gonna find a true love. which while this sell for £150+ its only on the issue but its not rare. the demo is youre my life on both sides and is around £15. spread the news is the "A" side £20 for the demo and £25 for the issue. spread the news issue is rarer than the youre my life issue. youre my life made the r n b top 100. hope some of this info helps dave
