  1. There's a Shaun Robinson stock copy here ... https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=27349&item=200376663339
  2. Didn't this all get done about a year ago ? I timed both sides of the B Harner inst - both came out at 1:29 - (probably doesn't count as it was never intended to be that short) I think a strong contender was the Gordons Gin Theme (about 30 seconds ). Cheers Mick Holdsworth
  3. Wigans Ovation - Shreiking in the Studio / Stupidlove / No-Per-Son-Al-Ity -- or any others by that group of "singers" (a word I use in the sewing machine sense of the word) Cheers Mick Holdsworth
  4. Again, that's a browser problem - keeps putting in decimal places when you need commas and noughts - instead of say 100.00 try 100,000 - you will find you may win a few more ! Mick
  5. Chris A trick I picked up years ago with a "Sticking" record - LIGHTEN the needle. It doesn't seem to work if the record jumps forward, but usually works if it jumps back, ie "sticks" Cheers Mick
  6. Strange - Just tried with both IE / FF with no problems - FF is rightclick "save image as" , and IE is rightclick "save picture as" .. maybe it is a system that only effect some random pages , like the "new view" was (still is) Anybody got a link to one NOT working ?? Cheers Mick
  7. Thanks for that Gary Seems the mystery has been solved while I went to the shop for 20 mins, so I'm off to set up a camera inside the fridge to see if the light stays on when the door is closed (even when I'm NOT looking) Cheers Mick
  8. Unfortunately I don't have a copy, just that scan - would be interested to hear it though Cheers Mick
  9. Think he means his copy on MCA 105, not just "any" copy - Yes it's had umpteen reissues in the 60's and 70's, but the one he means is 123 / bullseye on black label with rainbow at 10 o'clock MCA 105
  10. Just found an MCA 105 ... len barry.bmp Was it like this? ... Never played the B side Cheers Mick
  11. The MCA reissue of 1-2-3 had "You Baby" on the B side, which was MU 1172, so I don't know the one you have, the list number suggests it may not be a UK release - got a Scan / Sound Clip ? Cheers Mick holdsworth
  12. Come September 22nd, eBay UK have this in hand, along with their "Free Post" policy. Once a complaint is opened, the buyer cannot leave feedback (This is just eBay.co.uk .... don't know if eBay.com will be doing this aswell) Mick
  13. On the first one, the word "Records" under Jacklyn is spaced out differently to the other two ... never noticed before, and I've never seen a yellowish copy Mick
  14. This eBay copy came from a collection owned by Lela Martin - I was looking through the rest of the records, which included 3 or 4 audiodisc acetates of Lela , some released, some not ..... Couldn't beleive my ears when I heard William Powell singing along with a basic piano backing, a song that was undoudtedly the genesis of Heartache Souvenirs - similar title too. Anybody else notice it? Cheers Mick
  15. For some reason, the Stardust release had the superb intro chopped out, don't know why as the source (CD) was 100% complete. Cheers Mick
  16. ABC, I think
  17. Just has an email from our good friends at eBay. Changes coming up, amongst them is the fact that all media (including records, cd's etc) will have to offer free P&P as first option on UK eBay (I think they did this with DVD's a few months back) Full details here ... https://pages.ebay.co...l/sellerupdate/ Bet they don't get many 99p freelistings after that date ... Mick Holdsworth
  18. Johnny Caswell's IOU - Much too fast - for many years (before decks had pitch control) I seriously doudted that it was even the same artist, but if you slow it down about 3 / 4 rpm then it is exactly as "YDLMA" - This tempo change was as Decca put it out, and has carried though on Champion Boots etc. (Of course, it could be that YDLMA was slowed down for it's Decca release, but I doubt it) Cheers Mick
  19. Just thinking that - It's supposedly either the Monitors or Originals - I got an unlabelled 7" acetate about 10/12 years ago, tried to find out about it but didn't get far until this very site produced a sound clip of it many years later, credited to one of those two groups (no idea if that artist accreditation was accurate though, but it does sound Motownish). Cheers Mick
  20. Probably Dean Courtney - I'll Allways Need You, but the Tomangoe's would be in the next few choices
  21. Dave Yes, a lot of the early copies were printed as "Mary Johnson" It does appear quite often, just have to look closely - I've had a couple of "factory samples" and one normal Issue without the sticker Cheers Mick Holdsworth

    Paul Anka - I Can't Help Loving You
  23. Hi Pete, Must admit I don't know of any other UK test presses other than the one in the first post .. oh and the US Bell Sound acetate. I meant 3 black labelled copies, although that figure is the one banded about for 30 years or more - 1 copy lost, 1 copy gained, blah blah ... but your right, Decca in the UK undoubtedly pressed a full run, or close to it, but only these few escaped the crusher after Len's departure to RCA. - I also agree there may be one or two more out there in non-record land still waiting to be found. Cheers Mick
  24. The 3 known copies refers to black labelled UK stock copies, if that figure is accurate. We know one copy was lost forever (Richard Searling / Car / Roof / Wigan / Bolton etc ..) but on the other hand a fresh copy was found in the 90's, (someone on here found it in .. Sydenham ?? ) so it may be 3 copies .. again. Cheers Mick
