Thee Illusions Thunderstorms and Earthquakes. Sola. Anybody got a spare copy of this 2020 release please. Let me know condition, price etc. PM Me Dave H

It is Amazing how some prices are now. When I sold my UK copy of Glen Miller for £400 about 5 years ago I thought I'd got a good price. What we must remember is "our little soul world" has expanded so much in the last 10 years or so. Far quicker than when we were young, in terms of number of collectors, record buyers, events etc and the need for old original records has increased beyond anybodies projections. One over riding factor is the number of old Soul records, whether a 100 run or a 10,000 run cannot be increased (unless reissued or booted), and by that fact alone the desirability of a particular 45/LP wanted by more people increases in price by whatever. Desire is one thing, willing to pay more than the next person is another. Put 2 people together with both those factors and a desirable 45 then hey presto. The prices they are fetching does my collection no harm at all and even if I sell at below todays prices I will be well in profit, if that was my motivation. It is only a downer if you want something and you are watching it soar. If everybody collected records under £20, it wouldn't be long before most records would be £21 and above and your in the same boat again. Rejoice in the fact that there's avid collectors or investors willing to buy that "old ship ballast" stuff off you. Dave H.

Anybody have a copy of this for sale please. Teddy Cash - You are so wonderful Cha Cha Records. VG+ or better. Pm me please and allow a few days for reply please. TIA Dave

Sad news on the passing of one of the Northern Scenes characters and stalwarts. RIP Keith.

I am going to stick my neck out on this "dual records same nimber"??? It could of been a tax dodge or even that they didn't have to pay one of the artistes by claiming it was a pressing plant issue. If said record became a hit then they may of come clean to said artiste. The record business is full of stories of rip offs and skulduggery, so why wouldn't "dual numbers" be seen as another way of "getting away" of not paying out once the money was in. Like I said, I'm sticking my neck out on that shout, but it happens. I would love to have them all on a spread sheet and how many duicate numbers were demos?

550 copies were pressed in 1991 at Bill Smiths Customs Records Inc, California. They were done by JJA.

Still looking.

Looking for a decent copy of Thee Midniters Breakfast on the grass / Dreaming Casually. Whittier W509. Please state condition and price please Thanks Dave

Hi Looking for a copy of The Debtones "Baby, baby all the time" Valiant Records. State condition and cost please. Pm me on here or pm on mobile FB etc if you can. TIA Dave

Dave you are probably right as the Conway release is a great double header with the sweet soul side.

I consider the Conway release the rarer of the 2 and a hard one to track down. " I wanna groove you" has been in my play box for a good 8 years and as Kev says the flip is the current must have on the Sweet soul scene Stateside. Both labels are desirable but which one is prehaps an individual choice? Dave H.

PMd you about 45.

Hoping someone may want to part with a copy of the following Jesse Rico - Oh what a girl. Rico. Please state condition and price please??? TIA Dave

Fantastic Four now Sorted. OTIS Brown ....anyone? Dave

I'm pretty certain I first heard this played by Steve G at Soul Essence and possibly Plinston many years ago and had we had a little chat about it after I spun it in a collectors set at SE about 3 years ago. It's defo a rare record and never seems to turn up and I've never found out who the group are either, but someone must know a bit more about it.

Looking for a copy of Earnest Bolden - Talking about love. Alcon. pm me with condition and price please. thanks Dave.

I just see a dirty or sun starched label? Or have I missed something? I collected the Blue Soul label and other named Blue Soul labels and never seen it, so my view is as above? Dave H.

Another top Soul man lost to our scene. RIP Winnie.

Looking for original copy in Ex condition of Otis Brown "Southside Chicago" Ole Records. please state condition of labels, sound etc. thanks Dave

But they are all different forms of musical media which not everybody likes/wants or prefers. Even with vinyl LPs are not every bodies cup of tea if you just want the one track say, hence the 45 release prehaps?
