Cheers Mick , didn't realise he had two before Swifty

Was watching with Interest last night BOBBY JAMES - I REALLY LOVE YOU - KAROL on e-bay was described as VG with crack NAP and sounded ok on soundfile , I know this is a rare record and eventually sold for £366.97 surely this is cheap ? Brilliant record though , did anyone on here win it ? Swifty

Totally agree , I thought (stupidly) that I knew a bit about Northern and since coming on here it has been proven that I know Fook all! . Cheers Swifty

I've seen Stevie Wonder , Diana (do you know who I am ) Ross at Wembley and to be honest I was not that Impressed:no: but when I see somebody like Jimmy James , I could listen to him all night ! Also have seen EW&F at Bingley Hall and that was awesome Cheers Swifty

Don't know if this is of any relevance but I had a copy of 'Smoke Stream' Black & Silver Label which had a sticker on stating it was a BBC Radio Derby Library Copy ( Surely the Beeb wouldn't play boots !) or would they? Swifty

Roger , Just bought 'WHY CAN'T THEY LEAVE US ALONE' the other week for $6 Mint! Don't know how I'd never heard it before but what a record ! Cheers Swifty I've mentioned this before mate but your scans and info are superb , keep up the good work !

I'm probably out my depth here but surely anybody can put whatever price they want on a record ? who determines what it's worth , I agree if there are better copies known at half the price then surely if somebody buys it they haven't done their homework and as somebody else has stated if you were prepared to pay the asking price then you would think they know their stuff ? but I don't think you should comment on the price someone is asking, at the end of the day it will sell or won't! Cheers Swifty Off to bed !

I'll have 'Competition" off you for $10 ! Cheers Swifty

Love the Chuck Overton , used to have it on Moonsville (I Think , Soul Pack from B&S) with 'Thats My Girl', Bloody hell! them was the days , eh? Swifty

Tell you what Bogue , you ain't done bad there , love Johnny Maestro and would imagine if was rare would get played all the time! Cheers Swifty p.s can I cheat and add an lp I bought - STOVALL SISTERS - Reprise Demo $17 - Result ! (unless it's a boot )

Tell you what Bogue , you ain't done bad there , love Johnny Maestro and would imagine if was rare would get played all the time! Cheers Swifty

I'll tell you what chaps , there's a varied mix of tunes there, which goes to show I maybe need to broaden my horizons ! Thanks for all the info Cheers Swifty

Pete/Toad , Thanks for the quick replies Cheers Swifty

Just been playing 'Baby I'm Sorry" by Phillip & Lloyd (The Bluesbusters) on Scepter (it's on refosoul but don't know how to do) which I think is a classy crossover tune , so I thought I'd look on e-bay and see if there were other records by them I might like but the others seem to be Reggae titles. Are they primarily a Reggae group ? Cheers Swifty

Just a few cheapies but goodies @ about 6 quid each all ex+ BRENDA HOLLOWAY - WHEN I'M GONE / I'VE BEEN GOOD TO YOU - TAMLA DM WXL mix THE POETS - SO YOUNG & SO INNOCENT / A SURE THING - SYMBOL (just love both sides of this) THE FIVE STAIRSTEPS - PLAYGIRLS LOVE / WORLD OF FANTASY - WINDY C (Proper feelgood record!) LITTLE CARL CARLTON - WHY DON'T THEY LEAVE US ALONE / 49 DRUMS - BACKBEAT (how did I miss this before! ) ROBERT JOHN - IF YOU DON'T WANT MY LOVE / DON'T - COLUMBIA (nice oldie) as you can see nothing rare there but stuff I love at prices I can afford - It's in the groove that counts ! Cheers Swifty

I put one up on ebay a few weeks ago on T-JAYE and it fetched 5.99 , great record though ! Cheers Swifty
