Illusive

Jimmy Beaumont £234 !!!! Speechless.

Bargain for somebody.

The link has now been fixed so go grab yourself this fantastic slab of soul for $4.99 from https://coleminerecords.blogspot.com/p/online-store.html?m=1

The label owner and the group are now aware of the problem with buying the 45 from their website and are busy trying to resolve the error, so get your shillings ready as it should be available very soon for those that missed out on the first run.

Maybe this time the run won't be limited to just a few hundred Chalky as I think the groups appeal to the US market is pretty big, but I've no sense of the numbers involved so you may be right. Still the bulk buyers might also come unstuck and end up with discs they can't shift. Only time will tell I guess.

The group have posted on their Facebook page that their last 45 which has caused a stir on our scene "Got to get through to you" / "Don't throw your love away" has had a second pressing run. Unfortunately the link to the Coleman records website isn't working at this time, but hopefully that's a glitch in the system. So before paying some overinflated price for this 45 in the sales section on SS or elsewhere, I'd suggest you hang fire and wait to see if this new pressing run hits the market. I've contacted the group to advise them of the gremlin in the works. Happy New Year Gav

Some really nice sides amongst some MOR material but 3 stand outs for me on first hearing Brenda Holloway "Don't stay away", Hattie Littles "Now that love is gone" & Marvin Gaye "Must be quite a show".

Ike Noble. Killer and a great price too.

Watched this on DVD tonight and loved every minute of it. An astonishing array of talent on display and lots of snippets of information that thrilled the anorak in me ! Well worth a watch in comparison to much of the dross out there.

Bought one on ebay US earlier this week for $10. There was another on a buy it now for around $35.

Cash McCall - the buisness and a great price too

Sold two 12" in last few months on here for £40 (vg+) and £50 (ex) respectively. 7" is harder and prices are all over. £80 -£120. I think the lower end is closer to the mark. Of course you could always hold out for the crazy £350 as here: https://www.rarenorthernsoul.com/Rare-70s-80s/10597/stay/#product And there all promos I believe.

Better factor in the $136 import duty too !

R.I.P Rick. Condolences to his family.

Come on ! Mind you he obviously thinks it's a bargain as it's advertised with "No Reserve" !!!! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-Valentines-Breakaway-Sound-Stage-Issue-Rare-Soul-Northern-Soul-/251662417078?ssPageName=ADME:SS:SS:GB:3160

Now a "Buy it now" at £8. Think he saw the light.

Just received a response to my enquiry from The Showroom Workstation Cinema in Sheffield to confirm that they will be screening Northern Soul and will be announcing their intentions soon as part of their Oct-Dec program. Good news for those of us in South Yorks. Now form an orderly queue - behind me plz.

!!!!!!!!!!!! Looks like two newbies bidding against one another. Shame they didn't see this one https://www.ebay.com/itm/MOTOWN-SOUL-LP-JIMMY-RUFFIN-RUFF-N-READY-SOUL-SS708-STEREO-VG-SHRINK-/390894193037?_trksid=p2054897.l5659.

Anybody looking for a bargain can have mine for half that

Pm'd you

Both nice tracks Andy. Watched a video of them performing 'Listen' live at a festival, and was blown away by how tight they sounded. The problem once again is here's another limited quantity 7" release which sold out straight away and some "enterprising types" are trying to cash in by selling it for £25 a go now. As nice as it is I'm not about to stump up that much for an £8 disc.

My attempt at irony

Fookin' ell, never realised there were so many dodgy discs on discogs before https://www.discogs.com/marketplace?master_id=170699&ev=mb
