Description
EXTREMELY RARE COLLETTE KELLY " CITY OF FOOLS " WHICH IS ACTUALLY THE B SIDE. A SIDE IS " LONG AND LONELY WORLD " WHICH IS ANOTHER GREAT SONG IN ITS OWN RIGHT. THIS IS WHERE I CAN MAKE MY CLAIM TO FAME HERE. I FIRST CAME ACROSS THIS RECORD WHEN I ORDERED A BOX OF FIFTY USA IMPORTS FROM CONTEMPO WHICH WAS A RECORD PRODUCING OFFSHOOT OF BLUES AND SOUL MAGAZINE .IT WAS EITHER £10 FOR FIFTY OR £5 FOR FIFTY .I THINK IT WAS THE LATTER BECAUSE £10 WAS A QUITE HIGH VALUE THEN. GENERALLY THE CONTENT OF THE BOXES WAS MID TEMPO TO SLOW BALLADS BECAUSE CONTEMPO TOOK OUT THE UPTEMPO ONES BUT THEY MISSED THIS ONE. I DECIDED TO PLAY IT AS A DJ. I HAD THE KNACK OF KEEPING A CROWDED DANCE FLOOR BUT WHEN I PLAYED IT I VIRTUALLY EMPTIED THE DANCE FLOOR ( NOBODY HAD HEARD IT BEFORE ) BUT BEFORE THE END OF THE SONG WUITE A FEW PEOPLE GOT DANCING TO IT. PEOPLE CAME UP TO ME AND ASKED WHAT IT WAS AND IT BECAME A REGULAR PLAY FOR ME. IT PLEASES ME TO SEE THIS RECORD INCREASING IN VALUE .I HAVE HEARD IT ACHIEVE £250 AND IS VERY MUCH IN DEMAND AND I BELIEVE I WAS THE FIRST TO GIVE IT A PLAY. THE ONE I PLAYED ON THOSE DECKS ALL THOSE YEARS AGO I STILL HAVE AND WOULDN'T PART W
ITH IT. ANYWAY BACK TO THIS RECORD IT DOES HAVE QUITE A FEW
- MARKS ON THE VINYL AND A LITTLE SURFACE NOISE AT THE START TO BOTH SIDES WHICH IS WHY I HAVE PUT IT OUT AT A LOW PRICE BUT IT DOES RETAIN SOME OF IT'S GLOSS AND PLAYS REALLY WELL.
.
I VISUALLY INSPECT AND PLAY EVERY RECORD BEFORE I LIST FOR SALE.
I DO COMBINE POSTAGE .
WHEN I GRADE RECORDS FOR SALE I ALWAYS ERR ON THE DOWNSIDE IE.....EX OR EXCELLENT IS MORE NEARER M-......VERY GOOD VG++ IS MORE NEARER EX AND SO FORTH DOWN THE GRADES.

WHEN GIVING FEEDBACK WHICH IS IMPORTANT TO SELLERS DO NOT GIVE NEGATIVE FEEDBACK WITHOUT CONTACTING ME FIRST .GIVE ME THE OPPORTUNITY TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE FIRST. AFTER ALL WE ARE HUMAN AND CAN MAKE MISTAKES ,BUT I CAN GUARANTEE WHATEVER MISTAKE IT IS, WILL NOT BE DELIBERATE.
