Always understood the "bomb hoax" at the Wirrina to be down to a certain KW.... DJ'd at the Fleet a few times in the Modern room but most people have forgotten about that.

What's next for Mr Searling? Maybe the "Keys to the city"..... oh no, he's already done that Steve

I'll dig it out Si and take a look at condition. Seem to remember it was pretty much mint with a company sleeve but leave it with me Steve

Aren't originals styrene rather than vinyl, I'm sure my demo is but I've not looked at it for years? best Steve

Gulp!

Hi, As a matter of interest does anyone know what the final auction price was on the Frank Beverly Sassy demo on Mr Manship's auction this week. Seems to have disappeared from view Cheers

They are out there for £30 on Sound Gems, seen a few on lists from the States for much less over the last couple of years. Don't pay above £40 Chris Steve

Barrons "Walking In The City" Cobblestone Demo Noted in Richard Searling's new book (Setting The Record Straight) his old Cane Black cover up from way back when. This has remained extremely rare and in this condition is almost an impossibility. Both sides an impeccable Mint - A true hard to find 45 from the late Wigan early Stafford era. £550 including secure signed for postage to the UK. Overseas please enquire.

Demo definitely the one to have as many of the issues were slightly off centre (hence Mr Anderson gave me my copy) but its easily overcome with a filed spider centre. Simply cant believe how much things that were anywhere between £2.00 and £5.00 as new releases have shot up. Bileo, Tommy Tate, Pages etc etc and to think I sold my Northern thinking it was dead and bought "newies" at the time only to sell them because they died a death too. Now they are both back in fashion. Pair of original Spencers and Polyveldts anyone? Steve
