More sad news - Dobby Dobson passed away
How sad, I was going through a pile of records on Saturday and pulled out one of Dobby's Success 45's which I hadn't listened to for ages, no idea that he recently passed away. My thoughts go out to Dobby's friends and family. RIP.

Can you help?
Andy, also worth contacting Adey Pierce at Silverfox Records based in Gloucester. Always found Adey to offer fair prices when buying either single items or collections.

Getting to nighters
Everyway possible, driven, got lifts with others, coach, hitch and trains in the late 70's, early 80's with the famous 2 for 1 train tickets for free (no receipt needed) that used to be attached to the outside of Persil boxes etc. (see photo). You were supposed to purchase the product but I believe many people took advantage of this being on the outside of the packaging. Shortly after this these were put inside.

US Postal Service COVID-19 Restrictions
Same experience from the US and waiting on some 45's from a trusted seller and he is experiencing the same problem. Wants to send these but blocked by the post office. Also bought a 45 from Spain on 1st March and yes that only arrived this week.

Prices seem to be £150-£200 for a Mint copy. Adey at Silverfoxrecords currently has a mint one for sale at £200. Pat Brady got £300 for it in one of his auctions. There was a few turned up a few years ago but now copies seem to have dried up. Interesting online comments say this was played by Soul Sam and Pat Brady. I remember Richard playing it first at Wigan as Doni Burdick and Clouds.

Tony Warot Rip
Still have a tape from Tony from the 80's with one of his superb remixes - Johnny Caswell - You don't love me anymore. You would never know this wasn't an alternative mix done in the studio at the time. RIP Tony, a great guy and will always be remembered. Mark
