I wonder what people would think today if they went to an all nighter and it was full of 15 to 18 year olds ? Maybe need 2 scenes side by side one for young to learn the ropes and one for the old guard....

Do you ever envisage the classic house music of that era commanding really high prices ? and some kind of revival in the way northern did ? My time was roughly 93 to 97 so a bit after the clubs you mentioned but I have a stack of records from my time and still enjoy some of them even now. there was plenty of rubbish as well though.

Yes i agree. I'm not convinced at all by this supply and demand arguement.

Thats how much i paid for it in about 97 give or take. I think it came from shifty. Wasnt that was a typical price for the time ? I think it was.

A few of the buy it now finish tomorrow rest have a few days left. you can message me here with any questions or ebay. https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/pushbuttonworld/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_ipg=&_from= Thanks.

Thats some find. was it a known rarity at the time ?

My fresh ear days were about 22 ish years ago but yes it was fantastic. hearing things like Jimmie rays “philly dog” for the first time and thinking wow !!! How did I not listen to this until now. when I watch the old Wigan footage I could also be envious for the atmosphere. It looks incredible. i have never been in a northern club with an atmosphere to match that. closest I came was early 90s house clubs

Fair enough my post was a bit generic and obviously not telling Anything like the full story. There are plenty of oldies that I love. and yes there is some dross played still. if i’m Told a record is rare or great i’m Curious enough to check it out but that doesn’t mean i’ll Like it. i like to think i’m Able to decide what I like for myself not rely on others to tell me.

Thanks that makes sense.

Coming late to the soul scene at least i dont have to look through rose tinted specs at some of the pop music that got played. quality control seems much better now if you pick venues with the right dj's or promotors.

Just a little while is a cracking stomper by him.

there was a want on here this week or last week for clifford curry

Yes thats the funny thing. If he or she (equality LOL) did get an offer and ended auction early i'd still expect to see it on my watch list as no longer available. there must be some other reason its not showing i dont remember this happening before maybe it has and i just didnt notice.

I was watching an item and it has just disapeared off my watch list. Not even showing as no longerr available. my guess is its been sold before auction ended amd is no longer available. in the past didnt this kind of thing still show on watch list but as an completed item or did they always used to disappear ?

I've got one on ebay now for 20gbp so bang in the middle of these estimates. great record.

Only to get a shock when they play it..... at least its a good record in its own right so not a complete disaster. this could make a good thread. What record did you buy only to find out it wasnt what you thought it was ?

For this record 125 seems about right to me.

Thanks i better get myself an account. i see some price info for some records but not others. if any its just highest, lowest, average and date last sold.

Benji with an account do you get access to more price information than as a non member who just browses that site ? cheers

This list is 13 years old

Polite reminder for these just SJ TRIPPIN sold so far.

Yes that was my thought on listening. after a few more spins i'm really warming to the flip it may be the better of the two sides.

Finishing as buy it now in just under 3 hours thanks

Wasnt holland the destination and also nobody has ever actually seen one ? dave flynn has commented that there are no copies in japan. what a story though if one ever does appear.

The scene certainly is at some point important to us all but i think for many the collecting continues when they leave the scene. i sold a record last week and the buyer said he hasnt been in a soul club for 10 years apart from one recent visit. maybe taste changes and the home lsitening soul is what will stand the test of time as a long term collectable as that doesnt need a scene. and there is so much info out there that a records rarity can truly be tested before big big spends take place. In the same way as with other collectables mentioned above. Prices may continue to rise on truly rare and great recorda as they will become very important and be treated like antiques. far removed from the underground youth scene they came from.
