Figured it's been a couple weeks so I would ask you about this again...still very interested in JImmy Church if available

It's pretty easy to tell by looking at the record label if it's the Numero one, the contrast between the heavy and thin text is much great on the original and the text alignment is different. I almost got taken by one at a record show but some fast work on my cellphone saved me.

price reduced to $130

thanks, if you get a chance to ask him, please do. There's been at least 7 copies on ebay in the past 4 years but some of them were pretty beat, I'd pay signifcantly more than what those copies sold for.

pretty sure someone in the US - California has them. About 18 months ago a record dealer in Oregon brought one to a record show and says it was 'NOS and unplayed' - not sure how he knew that, and it was the only thing like it that he had, I bought it for a reasonable price and I heard some buzz about a find so I immediately flipped it.

Three used classics Isonics - Sugar - Kammy, original, VG-, has a outer edge crack that just touches the grooves, you can see it in the pic just a bit above the 9 o'clock location.

There are numerous huge sellers in the US that people in the rare/Northern soul scene seem to think should cost money. Just the other day on Facebook I saw reference to a Strangeloves record as being 'rare soul'. All the Strangelovers 45s were pressed in quantities of 100,000 or more, I can see an unplayed deadstock copy being worth $5 but that's it. Many people in the US would be happy to give the stuff away (I have), Strangeloves, Winstons "Color Him Father"/"Amen", Castways "Liar Liar", Human Beinz "Nobody But Me", "The Snake", etc, nearly unlimited amounts of decent copies. The posting above about the Precisions "If This is Love" is correct, still 100s of decent playable copies here in the US, an unplayed copy is hard to find but that record must have sold 20,000, maybe as much as 50,000, it was a big seller in several large US cities.

Jay Traynor - Up and Over - ABC 10845, demo. VG+ (EX grade in UK), has a couple marks but was probably unplayed when I got it, just stored without sleeve, plays great. $500 includes standard shipping from US.

There must be 300+ records on these labels, I don't know if anyone has ever done a complete run - but at least you said 45s which elimates the 78s. Could you be more specific? You should ask Carl P from Detroit, he has been selling a bunch on ebay.

The cream/yellow label is the common one....the purple one is the sought after one because it has the slower version of "I thought you were mine" on the flip. Last copy sold for around $50 but there's an expensive one that says it is on vinyl instead of styrene.... The ABC issue of this is pretty easy to find here in the US, about a $10 record. AFAIK there's no difference between the cream colored Boola Boola and the ABC 45. https://collectorsfrenzy.com/search?q=natural+four+you+did&search-button=

The map has a problem...... I checked out my home state, Ohio, in the US, and was surprised to see that the map shows 12 members here from the modest sized city of Mansfield, OH about 70 miles SW of Cleveland. Checking their profiles, I see that they were not from Mansfield in Ohio but Mansfield in England! Which makes a lot more sense.... So, something in the program needs to be added to distinguish countries/states/counties, etc. Just about every state in the US has a city named Springfield.....

Thanks, my knowledge of D Town records is pretty slim, other than the records I've come across. Got a Ronnie Love on a red D Town recently that I didn't know about. Sounds pretty good to my ears. Don't think it's a big deal value wise.

Wanted Goldie - Headlines / Goin' Back - UK Immediate, original, demo or issue, with center, in VG+ to Ex or better, thanks. PM or email buckeyebeat@hotmail.com

yeah, there's a few of these in here in the US, including the one I have. Fantastic record on both sides, but it is not favored by the younger US DJ/soul dance scene as it's a little too much of a doowop throwback. I've never heard a copy that has a clear, bright sound, such as their Drew sides. I'm sure that it was recorded at a different (cheaper?) studio than the Drew sides, that's probably part of it
