Trev Thomas

its spelled fikes not fykes,

betty fikes is on southbound ted

album only, from the "an american family" album, one ive been playing at york over the past year, same backing as the mark 4 "gone" - sagport,

herb and doris - somebody somewhere needs you - hip same as ike and tina darrell banks - somebody somewhere needs you - revilot same words as ike & tina / herb & doris different backing

as already stated its on "sharp", however, the u.s. and u.k. copies have different track listings, better off going for a u.k. one as that also contains "just having your love"

i sold one about 3 months ago, considerably more than 30 quid

not hatred pete, just gets up my nose that he gets on here banging on about the henious crime of bootlegging / counterfeiting , then it turns out he's been prosocuted for it, indirectly i hasten to add,

marvelous spin, still found guilty though wearnt you, which makes you a criminal, case closed me thinks

yeah right, intresting, you chose to use the word inaccurate as opposed to untrue

roll up, roll up, get your whitby anniversary ashtrays here

its a miscarriage of justice, mistaken identity your honour, it was someone from middlesborough

come on mr roberts, lets see you deny this......found guilty in a court of law by a jury of 12 good men, which makes you nothing more than a common criminal , 17,000 records through the crusher...ouch, ha ha

got a sandy hadley

makes perfect sense, abc used various pressing plants when manufacturing a record, hence the varying label layouts and plastic variants i.e vinyl, styrene, once pressed, records were sent out on a sale or return basis, unsold stock was returned to abc to be recycled, a lot of the major labels adopted this policy, rca being a good example, obviously not every copy got returned, even a record that totally flopped on release would have sold a few copys, and probablly only around 80% of unsold made it back to be recycled, so there will be, albeit very few issues floating around, demonstration copys on the other hand were given out free and were not subject to the return / recycling policy, thaty why a vast majority of the major label stuff is more common on the demo format

both holidays and jj barnes 45's (which incidently are exactly the same take) are quite hard to track down, especially the holidays, however, the rare stamps album turns up quite regularally on ebay, shouldnt set you back more than £30 - 50, got mine, a nice u.s. minter about a year ago for £15

i never disputed the price, i disputed your theory that the red label copies are the most common, which, if you read the posts on this thread, seems to be the general concensus of opinion

ahhhh well , if it says so in "the" price guide then it must be right, it also says typhoo on the side of a bus

without a doubt, i've only seen 2 red stockers in 25 years, seen plenty of w.d's and yellow / greens

you know me kev, nothing but the best

ive told you a million times........dont exagerate

i sold a red issue sometime during the mid 90's at the griffin allnighter leeds for around the £200-250 mark, cant remember who to, think it might have been gary field, anyway thats by the by, what makes your scan interisting is the autograph, i rember steve handbury showing me his copy around the same time, that was also an autographed red stocker, is yours steves old copy

so, how are they skimmed, on a machine, or by hand,

the take 6 version of feminine inginuity is longer than the gold token version, both sides of the take 6 disc were booted on a solid centre disc with a plain white label some have had the titles handwritten on some hav'nt

not for me pete, joe jamma is to me what the carstairs is to you

i think you would have to be mad to want to buy joe jamma, regardless of the condition
