Original first issue of this Northern Soul classic. 45rpm USA. Condition is a immaculate Mint- top condition. £150 includes insured postage.

It's good and great for the Northern Soul dancefloor. I've always thought there's a similarity in the backing track that reminds me of the Magictones "It's Better To Love".

Original copies are very rare, so if selling, you could name your price and probably get it. But there are a lot of lookalike copies about. It was repressed for the Northern scene in recent years, at least twice that I know of.

It is not a rare record. There are lots of copies. But it has been getting a higher price these days, so I suppose this auction price is good by that comparison.

The funny thing was when I got to the services, I never wanted anything to eat after the allnighters😉

Bought my copy at Dave Withers Manchester indoor market stall, roundabout 1985. It was 30p. Also bought 4 copies of The Newsounds on Mod Art for 30p each, on the same day. These records weren't in fashion at that time.

So how is ebay going to make up the money lost through this move?

"You're With Me All The Way" The Charades Mercury Promo 45 rpm Original USA 45rpm. £30 plus £3.50 post. Condition is Excellent. Great moody 60's Soul!

Does this mean ebay will not take a commission when I sell something? I get what the item sells for?

This only happens because of bad management and incompetent supervision by managers! I'm sorry to read about your Mother-in- laws hospital experience. Sounds like my stay in hospital

Last night I had to take my Mother to A&E. No problem with the ground floor staff, they are trying their best, but the management organisation is terrible! And where are the top managers? All gone home for the evening and off on the weekends! Our A&E last night was a hell hole. People crammed into a low ceiling room with no windows and poor ventilation. No seats left, so people sleeping on the floors or standing against walls. After hours of waiting we finally gave up and I took my Mother home. A truly awful experience to put sick people through!

Such a shame these great records didn't sell at the time!

Two great sides. Super soulful crossover Northern Soul mid tempo dancer. £80 + £4.60 post Very nice Excellent condition.

I don't think it has been booted as an issue. There may be some carver type things knocking about, with a photocopy label stuck on. I wouldn't buy it without a Monarch delta number and details in the runout. All original copies I have seen, have them.

"It's The Same Old Me"/ "Let Me Live"- Otis Leavill - Bluerock. M- £20. Plus postage. Great Chicago double-sider. "I Don't Want To Lose You"/ "Just Be Sincere" - Jackie Wilson - Brunswick. Ex+. £20. Plus postage. Double sided brilliance!

That's right you didn't, and you have started a very interesting topic on lost 45 records, but I thought it a point worth clarifying.

He didn't issue the record for the USA. He just pressed up a 1000 copies on a special order using the old Chess distributed Red Coach number 802 that the white demo used in 1973. They where all shipped to the UK Northern Soul scene. Rick Cooper on here said a while ago he ordered them while working at Global Records. Then I think Gene Redd pressed some more copies for other UK dealers. His Red Coach label that was distributed be Red Lite was up to at least release number 808 by 1975, when the so called issue was pressed.

Immaculate Mint- condition. Original USA demo 45rpm. £150 plus postage.

Original first issue of this great Detroit record. Record is in nice Ex condition. Has two light pen x's on flip side. They are not very noticeable, but I always think it gives a little provenance to the originality. £50 all in. Postage included.
