Jesus, a grand! can't be worth that much, i paid £20 for my copy (can't remember exactly where or when but i'm full sure it was at an allnighter in Stoke or Blackpool) but then again, i've never seen it listed or even on Evilbay so who knows these days.

I know this doesn't actually help your quest but i've had this record for years (first heard it on a dodgy compilation l.p. that a mate of mine brought back from the U.S.). Always loved both sides of the record but always too scared to play it out. I heard it at a Middleton allnighter recently and it just blew me away hearing it being played on a decent system in the right environment etc. Out of interest, what is it's current value? Hope you find a copy soon, you've got good taste

I'm in the same category as Andy (grew up in the arse end of Ireland!). I thank my older brother for being a mod and buying the "Out On The Floor" compilation which featured Frank Beverly & The Butlers "If That's What You Wanted". When i heard that, everything made sense. This directed me to this beautiful music and to venues in Dublin and the U.K. Even though i was too busy playing with my toys while you were experiencing this weird and wonderful scene, i still feel lucky to be found by this music.

Have to agree with Andy. After all, how can you slag a film off without even seeing it? Of course we'll all probably find some flaws with it when it is eventually released (in the same way we can all see the flaws with Quadrophenia and it's portrayal of the original Mod scene) but at least wait until then to voice an opinion about it. I for one am looking forward to seeing the end result (although i'll probably have to travel to the U.K. to see it or wait for the dvd to be released!).
