It's no good you know.
I was so convinced that my return trip to the charity shop would be successful and that I'd pick this up on 7" that now I can't countenance posting anything else.
Not lovingly ripped from the vinyl.
Here's to one that got away.
Robert Knight - 'Love On A Mountain Top' (1973)
It really is a good track as well, bugger. I hate when that happens. I remember when I was a younger not buying a copy of Ce Ce Rodgers Someday in a charity shop, going back the next day to find it was gone andd then having to pay a fortune for a copy as it niggled me so much.
ReplyDeleteYou could buy a copy at discogs for 20p - http://www.discogs.com/sell/list?release_id=767288&ev=rb
Good weekend ahead, Dinner with the good lady tonight and relegation decider at the football tomorrow.
Have a good long weekend Mr H.
Thank you dear boy, same to you. Sorry for the delay in responding: just got back from dropping the youngest daughter at Brownie camp. As rain clouds gather above West London skies....
ReplyDeleteI DEMAND TO HAVE SOME BOOZE!
oooooh what a treasure - did it come in that cover??? i'd've bought it just for that even if it wasn't a pop/northern classic.
ReplyDeleteand oh your poor dear offspring. why does anyone try to do anything outdoors of a bank holiday huh? then again i've only got a dribble of bourbon and i forgot to go to the library so that's me soggy...
ps
i think i can feel some blog tennis coming on

No, no, no Miss A, distress ye not, it was not in that cover - BUT! it was on the original Monument label (with matching sleeve) and I did have it figured as mine.
ReplyDeleteStupid me, as Drew quite rightly says, for turning up without a quid, even in me pocket lining.
Mind you - POUND NOTES!!!! Scotland, are you mad?
PS: Oh yes. Youngest daughter faces a Bank Holiday of rain, bunk beds and beans.
ReplyDeleteShe'll love it, if I know her.
I'd have hated it at her age.
ReplyDeleteps - game on
ReplyDeleteDamn. I still remember a nice mint copy of All Or Nothing that I never bought at a jumble sale once. 25p.
ReplyDeleteShare your pain people! It's group therapy!
ReplyDeleteThen nip over to Miss A's.
The, er, chap in the blue satin jumpsuit... was I having a harder afternoon than I'd realised? I suppose he's the kind of fellow I might have halucinated... I'd think I followed an old Friday link but I'll be jiggered if I can spot it now...
ReplyDeleteI still pine for the multi multi album Motown box set that sat in the second hand shop for all those weeks, out of my price league but a boy could dream
Damn, I thought no-one would notice.
ReplyDeleteHe was here. Briefly. But he didn't feel right, and I pulled him. You know how it is. I'm sure he'll be back.
They play Motown in heaven. Well, Marvin, at least x
Two people within a few hours attracted by the same little black round thing. It just goes to show there are plenty of people (as sad/mad as us?) rifling through those bins all the time.
ReplyDeleteI'm now regretting passing on a Marvels album this afternoon. I may go back tomorrow. Will it still be there?
I hope so Darce. We need a win.
ReplyDeleteDavy H. Very much the man in form.
