I had a stock copy of Vivian Carol (sadly sold five or six years ago in a moment of weakness). The colour of the one above (which looks like a Verve blue on my screen) is way off, unless there were two stock versions - mine was a darker blue with a sort of greenish tinge in there.

Possibly Dave, though as you know a lot more goes into prices than years (demand, supply, whether the earlier copy or copies were bought by a mug or mugs, etc etc). I'm sure we could all name records that are selling for less now than they were in 2015 as well as many which are selling for more? I was just reading through the forum and responded to the question with the only data point I had. I personally think that we're going to see a dramatic drop in sale prices - if inflation gets as bad as it seems likely to, I expect people will liquidate their collections. Nice-to-haves might be replaced with must-haves. I'm interested in Lambretta sales, and you can pick up a nice GP now for less than you could a year/couple of years ago. PS I had a copy of this and sold it years ago for a lot less than £300 (I don't rate it, but I wish I'd held on 😆)

One sold on eBay in July 2013 for $413/£310.

I would have thought this would be of interest only to label/composer/producer completists? I can't imagine anyone dancing to it. For obvious reasons, there can't be many more unknowns out there after fifty years of the world's most trainspottery obsessives looking, and especially so since the true value of the records became known to any American with an internet connection; I'd think there's probably a fair bit lingering still on the B sides of obscure and semi-obscure 45s though (though obviously those wouldn't be unknown).

Your surprise got me thinking Benji - and unfortunately it turns out my elderly memory is playing tricks on me. I've just been to my record room - my copy of Lonely People is a standard pink demo, but the picture sleeve is of I'll Love You Til The Cows Come Home. I would have bet my house on it being LPCATC! Lots of records, irregularly perused, early onset Alzheiner's - one or all, take your pick. Sorry to disappoint.

I've got that in a picture sleeve in perfect nick. (Not that that says anything about the overall picture, obviously.) I've had several copies of Delegates of Soul on Uplook and they all had damaged labels; weirdly, in each case the plastic was near mint.

Absolutely brilliant record - Guy Hennigan (I think?)

Hi Mal I could put up a scan but to be honest on the recorded side it is exactly the same as any other copy of Proud Guy I've ever seen - it's just like the other side never got put through the pressing machine is all. cheers Alex

Just going through some boxes and pulled out the above record which I believe was played at Stafford way back when. Weird thing is, it is a one-sided record - there is no B side, just what I assume is the original pressing plant blank with a white paper area where the Chesapeake label would have been if it was a normal copy. Anyone ever seen one of these before? Any explanation? I guess it might be a strange way of producing demos on the cheap? TIA Alex

What does this go for these days

No sorry I heard it out and was p155ed 😂 The singer does keep saying that though
