ORIGINAL Berry Gordy's personal property.... REALLY!
That's just a piece of description referring to his other listings, which include two Supremes acetates. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUPREMES-SHOW-TUNES-8-Track-ACETATE-LP-Dated-6-24-68-BERRY-GORDY-SOUL/392031241637?hash=item5b46e205a5:g:-DIAAOSws6ha5c8R https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SUPREMES-SHOW-TUNES-6-Track-1-Sided-ACETATE-LP-Dated-6-24-68-BERRY-GORDY/352341703935?hash=item520933bcff:g:yjcAAOSwZwxa5c0~ I also suspect the bit underneath, saying original pressing, is just a mistake (same with E of S.) Generally his stuff is marked as Originals or Pressings. Might cause a problem.

Richard Searling Book - Setting The Record Straight - News
Ok, That makes sense. So it is possible LSH was first played a little earlier than Oct 81, and Richard could/would have played it prior to the Sept 81 finale. Actually, as I type this, I've just had a brain flash of hearing 'Come On Back To Me Baby' (FIMH from the same batch), while I was in the record bar at Wigan turning to the nearest person, and asking "what's this?" It may have been one of the very last events at Wigan in 81.

Richard Searling Book - Setting The Record Straight - News
LSH turned up in the UK via Dave Withers and Rod, alongside Suspicion / It's Too Late / Forever In My Heart. Dave cut those four on to acetates for me at the time and it must have been about 1982 or even touching 83. Update - Seems it was 81 so, yes it could have been a very late Wigan spin

Four Seasons 'The Night' USA 45 release?
Here's the first Australian issue from May 1973 ... Strange, but there's nearly an 800 increase in the MW number in only two years (MW 10213 - 10794) - Don't know what that's about. Cheers Mick

Philly all stars lets clean up the ghetto promo costs
I would say they "should" all be about the same at £15 / £20. However if you are a collector missing one or two, irrespective of which ones they are, then the price could be way more. So potentially any, or all of them could be two or three times that. Cheers Mick

Carol & Gerri
I always felt the inclusion of the track on the CD was just a mistake, as Fifth estate were an all male group. Maybe the tape was found along with the other Wadlams / Askew compositions / recordings and it was just presumed to be them. Just my impression. and I may be wrong. Cheers Mick
-
Carol & Gerri
There's far more instrumentation on the MGM version too - I think the Fifth Estate was a work in progress, more of a basic recording, albeit 99% finished.

Kent Anniversary 45's
Some of the early ones are quite cheap too. I think people just want some titles more than others, I doubt if there are extra copies being pressed, or any lowwering of the quality, it's just down to demand. Cheers Mick

Curious, L. J. Johnson, orig US Philips Issue?
Popsike doesn't pick up everything, often thinks are there and then they disappear for some reason. In this case though, if any sold on eBay they may have been under the price threshold used by Popsike, eg. £2/3 etc. It's listed on discogs ... https://www.discogs.com/LJ-Johnson-Your-Magic-Put-A-Spell-On-Me/release/5281576 Cheers Mick

Ebay watch list
If there was some listing violation eBay themselves can independently pull it, and the listing then vanishes completely. It's happened a few times on things I was looking at, luckily never on my own sales though. Cheers Mick

Film/TV stars that also became NS related artists
I think she also appeared in a movie with Jon Voight, and I seem to remember hearing she was in an episode of Banacek.

Film/TV stars that also became NS related artists
As this thread is called " . . . Related Artists", can we have Morris Chestnut (the singer) who has a famous son, Morris Chestnut (the Actor).

Whats a good day for ebay?
I remember a documentary on TV a fair few years back and they reckoned the best time was either Sunday evening, or midday on Thursday. I can understand the Sunday evening, but could never get to grips with Thursday. (Maybe that was when people ordered stuff they needed for the weekend?) I did try the Thursday once and unfortunately I can't remember if it was any good or not. I think the docomentary was called "money for old rope", where the presenter listed a piece of old rope, sold it, and followed up the sale with a visit to the buyer. Cheers Mick

Johnnie on the spot, Dennis Edwards.
Big record for Soul Sam in early to mid 90's, maybe 1993 or so. I think it was fairly new (to Sam) about then. It may have bee around before then, but that's the first copy I ever saw. Cheers Mick

True Soul
Is this a valuation site, drawing in sales stats from various marketplaces, or is it a new Marketplace in its own right. Cheers Mick

Bill Brandon & Lorraine Johnson: Full time groover: orig vs boot
Seem to remember the boot had a matt finish, wheras the orig was a more glossy finish - Haven't had a real one since about 75, lent it to a local "friend", but never got it back

How rare are some of the 70' boots
Alondside the PB lookalikes, Some of the other SS boots are quite rare, like the Willie Hutch second boot as James Conwell Jr on Patches - The Duck / Love Runs Out, whereas the first boot as Richard Temple - Duck / Duck is very common.
