  1. Here's what it should be like - Not single sided but both released songs
  2. Ther is at least one other single, but it is just two of the LP tracks - I think "Come back to me" is one of the sides
  3. I sometimes buy blind, but again, $5 - $10 dollar stuff - ususally crap when I get it. but sometimes I go a bit more. A couple of weeks ago, I saw a record by "flesh and blood" go through eBay at $249.00 - It was after the auction ended and the sound clip had gone. So I did a net search using 5 or 6 search engines and found nothing except a query on here, getting no response. Found a copy on eBay last week at a low starting price, bidded about $80 and got it for just under $70. I still don't know if it is any good, as it hasn't arrived yet ... so it's still a blind buy.
  4. Yes My Dad wasn't so kind .... but my step-mom loves it
  5. Don't know if anyone remembers this but ... An old episode of "Northern Exposure" featured this song quite heavily - one of the female characters was going throug a "singing" phase and sang the whole song at least once during the episode, much to the annyance of the rest of the cast .. and .. More recently in an episode of "Doctor Who", at a wedding reception (where else), the "DJ" played a song that was clearly an adaptation of The snake - It was the first episode with Catherine Tate. Never heard this before - or since - don't know if it was a real record or just incidental music especially for the show.
  6. Martha Starr
  7. Yeah, about 3 years ago - I didn't think they were that expensive, about £20 or so - I know I got one
  8. Hello Can anyone help me with Bruce Channel / There Must Be A Love Somewhere - Le Cam I know it's a poor quality recording and sounds like sandpaper, but it fills a gap. Thanks in advance
  9. Hi Carl That works fine for the searches, it's the listings or browsing catagories that I was talking about. There's a facility to pick location "available from" and "any currency at the moment, which lists US$ right in with UK£, Euros and AU$ etc. Come April you can only do this if you actually run a search. Mick
  10. Hello As we all know, come April the new experience searches and listings will become mandatory. Over the last cople of months i've been experimenting with it and have constantly found I am reaching a brick wall and cannot see what is behind - or to put it another way - it's crap. I "think" I know what the problem is, not with specific searches, but with general listings. The worldwide option doesn't seem to do anything. At the moment, one of my normal pages is records / 7 inch RNB / Worldwide, no other limitations, and that gives me about 25,000 if I use the .com site. If I include stores it goes to about 140,000. With the new page, I can't get it past 16,000 - adding worldwide option changes nothing, it just list US listings, and no facility to include stores stuff. Tried it on the .co.uk site and that also only includes UK listings, even with Worldwide selected. Anyone cracked it - I cant believe eBay would allow this regression, and I've heard nothing on here about it so I'm really hoping it is me being stupid.
  11. Jackie Wilson - I Get The Sweetest Feeling, could be used on ... well, just about everything ... again
  12. Hi Darryl There you go Cheers Mick
  13. Just adding to this aswell - since the Mike Morton Congregation knowledge arose, I've aquired both MMC LP's - the green one with "banner man" (which also had covers of Elgins and Tami Lynn), and the other LP with "these things" - Banner Man was'nt the same recording as the Blue Sharks, But These Things was the same as B Sharks.
  14. I've got an instrumental version of this - more of a sing-a-long track, - it's not the same backing track, but clearly the same song - I'll see if I can put it up tomorrow.
  15. If there is a vinyl release, it will be a Sevens or similar, but I don't think so
  16. Well, the handwriting is Pep's, typical of the 70's emi discs he used to get done in mid 70's As you say, probably something well known on the other side.
  17. Both look like boots - Eddie regan looks blurry compared to sharp print originals. I've never seen this boot of Little Hank looks, but I'm sure that's what it is - looks like it was done at the same time as Danny Monday, same angled Promo text.

  21. No probs - thanks for that anyway. Still need info on this preson - anyone ??
  22. Still in need of a contact for this preson - anyone any idea ??
  23. Thanks for that - If he's from Ludlow then I reckon it's not him - this guys envelope has a Preston area postmark, and the cheque address is similar. See if anything else crops up today, I'll bump thies post a few times if necessary. Thanks for your help Mick
  24. I honestly don't know - this is the thing. This morning I received a cheque in the post from a Mr M Nichols - no clue as to who this is , or what it was for, although I'm 99% sure it's an order for a record off my web site, and the guy just forgot the covering letter, so if this rings a bell with anyone then please let me know It may be Shinehead, could you PM an email or some contact info.
  25. Probably the wrong place but ... If there's a Mr M Nichols out there, could he contact me please. He is probably in the Preston area, if anyone knows who this is, could they PM me with a contact email or address.
