Ha Ha remember it well, certain people claiming there was nothing left to discover 60s wise, Mick Webb claiming that he didn't need to listen to Kebs spot he just knew it was shit yup its there in black & white or occasionally black &green / pink ..................or was that the slightly earlier ones Steve ?

Joe Boy released it on a "JoeBoy" picture sleeve & was the full length / extra verse version. Would they have re-issued it on Dore as well ? I guess a lot of people prefer a US lookalike & it was the original short version. Hmm possibly answered my own question

Record buying Pete, sometimes you just have to, a desperate need to have that record. Some wouldn't, many would. As for paying that much over the top when a simple search would give an idea of the "normal" price ????????????

Geoff no need to wait that long, I'll play my £10 (should have been £7) Creations at Solid Hit on 5th December & Ted who is our guest that night can play his slightly rarer Classics if you ask him nicely ;-)

Geoff I bloody would have done but after reading this post I had a look for it & couldn't find it, next time mate. See you tonight

Hi Rich see you later mate ..............if you made it ;-)

Ha Ha Top man as always Pete ...... would've given you a thumbs up (ooh er mrs) but the emi thingy doesn't work for me ;-(

What ?????? I was ripped off ha ha ;-) I always thought Pete was Mr bargain man, damn !

Used to play this out quite a lot 10 or more years ago love it ...a tenner from a Mr P Smith from Hastings or Brighton, somewhere on the south coast anyway Edit. Thinking about it more like 12years @ SITC

Knew he'd been "unwell" big shock yesterday RIP Rick A guy full of warmth & friendliness Dave Greenhill

Guess you're right Pete, I paid £60 about 10 years ago & thought it was a ton at most nowadays, before this auction what would you have sold it for ? ( & the smiley is a joke as I know you're not led by others with your prices )

I mentioned it on the Broadways thread & I'll do so again David Coleman, an auction record ? hmm at that price I guess it is but in the real world ...................?????????????????

Hmm why doesn't bloody emoticon work ? ;-(

Cheers Steve, can't listen at work, I'll check it later.

Just walking through Selfridges Department store & I had a wtf moment. Just caught the end of Betty Lavette Let me down easy ......or not. So surprised to hear it I didn't listen that carefully. The voice sounded very much like Betty & while the backing was very true to the original the 20 seconds I heard I realised that it was much more recent then the 60s. Thinking about it & the rubbish that they play through the instore system, it couldn't have been Betty & I can only assume that a remake has been recorded trying to get as close to the original as possible. Has anybody else heard this (or am I last to know as usual ?)

"we feel there’s a few of you who may not own a copy" ha ha says it all really when even manship acknowledges that almost everyone has one.

Brains Parker ? Is that a cover up ?

Big wallets, the "ability" to read others playlists = instant dj

Played it in April at Solid Hit .....hmm was going to give a thumbs up or smiley but emoticom not working ;-)

Just saw that myself Pete ......unbelievable truly unbelievable David Coleman Drown my heart ..... Auction record ?

Thanks Gents (tried to post a thumbs up but it's not working ;-( )

Link to original thread please ? Ripped off Phil ? glad you got your dosh back (most of it)

Ha ha lines crossed I think Patto, original poster mentioned the track was Mecca/Cleethorpes type sound so when you mentioned DD I assumed you meant it was played at those venues, I'll go back to sleep

Don Downing played at the Mecca ? What a great record (well it was at the time, have to dig it out & see how it sounds today) Used to play it at some new release soul & funk night I used to do ........ ahhhh when I was young

Price please anyone on a mint minus T.C. Lee & the Bricklayers Up & down the hill King yellow demo? Many Thanks Dave
