Hi, i have this on a white demo. £100.

Ive got one; £150.

Hi, I got a mint one; £130, on original label Whizz, not Dynamic.

Here’s a cracker! Probably never played since it’s heyday at the Casino. Sounds poor now but very atmospheric at Wigan and big. Kieth Daylight Saving Time and a couple more: Billy Watkins Ice Man Lord Thunder Thunder Sammy Sevens Everybody Crossfire Four Seasons I’m gonna change Jumpin at the gogo Wyncote LP Gloria Parker Nita Rossi Seems like a lifetime ago!

Johnny Bragg!! If ever there was a totally forgotten Wigan biggie this one is. Back in the day though Selectadisc couldnt get these knocked out fast enuf; a true monster!

Van McCoy magic.

Absolutely; Teen Turbans was a monster.

Yeah mate, I know; coming from a man who’s managed to go more off the topic of ‘forgotten monsters’ than anyone here, thats funny😂 For me the ‘forgotten’ issue is largely about forgotten by the dancers and forgotten by the collectors. Some Wigan monsters are 4 figure records and still talked about and lusted and danced to (e.g Salvadors, Eddie Parker, Frank Wilson etc etc). But most of those I mentioned are not talked about or particularly danced to relative to their former huge status. When was the last time you heard Pennygold played, or Cherry People? Youd kill a floor with some of those records now. Try get a full floor to Nightowl.... impossible; collectors arent interested either but mid 70’s at Wigan that record was king; hence the ‘forgotten’ tag for me. Dont worry about it though Steve; drop another ‘green n clear’ n let it all float over your buzzing head!😄😉. Only jokin mate; its all good👍🏽

In no particular chronological order, and a mixture of excellent, and the good bad and ugly from Wigan; all were big though, and some beyond huge! Some are just plain funny. Little Joe Romans (Still super rare) Night Owl (Nothing was bigger than this mid 70’s at the Casino!) Danny Monday (Likewise this) Wakefield Sun Trypt on love General Assembly Sensitive mind Detroit Landapples Ollie Jackson Day my heart stood still. The Jewells Construction Lamont Cranston Band Colouredman Gary Lewis My hearts symphony (I kid you not!) Baja Marimba band Along comes Mary Paul Peek Im movin uptown EJ Chandler Jackie Forrest Show me how to love Lindy Stevens Pennygold Decca Johnny Vanelli Lou Roberts (All) Deadbeats No second chance (Probably more speculation about this as a cover up than any other RS record ever.... rumoured to be the rock group ‘Whitesnake’ at some point!) Seeds Pushin too hard (horrible horrible record but huge for Russ) Trade Martin She put the hurt Cherry People And suddenly The Poppies Pain in my heart
