as brian said, the canadian copy is ours bought off the bay a year ago.i thought it was a bargain but judging by the recent ebay sale the demo seems to be £450 dave

$20 on a12in i presume? dave

definately a white demo not a yellow one dave

im sure in the 80`s and 90`s the white king demo was owned by gary spencer who sold it to tim brown via andy dyson. thought they did the deal at the welfare hall at goldthorpe along with don gardner cairos etc. thought i witnessed it but i might have had too much sauce. sure this hapened in the mid 90`s anybody confirm dave

thort the 12in was more readily available. i had quite a few chances to buy it but i thought id hold out for a 7. as i said earlier im glad i got it then coz i would make do with a 12 if i hadnt got one. am i right in saying that the long and short versions on the 7 &12 are the same? dave

im sure john manship had it a couple of weeks ago for either £100 or £125. i know he`d had it a while but ive just tried to find it and i cant so perhaps demand has risen a bit. great record anyway and on the short side i dont think the intro is that long. had a 7in of this for 5 or 6 years now and judging by this thread im glad i bort it when i did dave

im sure kenny burrell has one and alan senior used to have it might be the same copy? best dave

hi all ive had a german philly white demo and a french philly issue they have the same b side but different catalogue numbers it seems the german one came out in may 75 but the french one not til july 76. dont know why that is so on the strength of it i kept the german one and sold the french copy to a mate on here for £15 dave

yes the lp says melba montgomery but its certainly is her on the cover well spotted joe dave

if it were played as much as party time man would people still have the same opinion of it ............ i think not dave

the polydor releases are only £10-15 anyway arn`t they dave

think youd need 2 jewels for an ike strong in todays market. thought jewel was around the £200 mark and ike strong £350. didnt jm auction ike strong and get nearly £500 for it or did i imagine it. both brill records anyway dave

im sure i remember blake hellewells mate kev johnson having a red issue in the mid 90s. He sold his records to tim brown brownie must have kept that for himself as i cant remember him listing it. ive seen plenty of white ones in varying degrees of condition, indeed some dont play very well at all. and its true there coming to take me away is a stunning version of napoleon 14th released at the same time altho rose didnt take a share of the chart honours dave

just played "nobody", the flip of what you gonna do........almost forgot how good it was. quite cheap by todays standards. willy tee brilliance. might throw it in the dj box. if its good enough for mr hampsey, its good enough for me

£25 ish...................7in quite hard as well. not seen either for a while so my estimation could be out dave

sure sean chapman has a red issue for sale dave

had guitar ray youre gonna wreck my life as my ring tone for last two years dave

no. as far as i know its on usa canyon and uk mojo lp only dave

played this at the earl of doncaster the other week. bort it for a fiver but i havent seen one for sale forever good luck with that one mate dave

is this still a cheap 45 dave

think youre right about pages martin. original is hard enough. but the repress is rarer. why would someone want to press so few up. not sure about zz tho. mines the first issue according to jm`s book but i keep pulling the repress and the boots out of boxes for a ton o money orig has better sound quality as well. Al mason was a regular £80/100 record until john got his hands on it dave

temptations originally did coming home. was it written by dennis edwards. its the flip side of struck by lightning twice. ive got em but not at hand. anybody confirm dave

cause youre mine now also came out on a cotillion 7in as well. i played it at mick waddington`s birthday do on saturday up until that point i had a spare copy......................not any more dave

dont think the temps recorded it in 1966 though surely. dennis edwards didnt replace david ruffin until 1968 must be a typing error on the cd or whatever the information was from. the release date but 1968 sounds more nearer the mark and probably recorded for the cloud nine sessions dave

artistics did a great version on their 1973 lp using same backing as jackie. all 3 brill arnt they dave
