So sad to see someone's collection that they obviously spent years putting together just dumped on the ground like that

[@drwhatson]

What, records with no covers?

[@owstonlad3859]

@@drwhatson You think that's unusual?..... try the dollar bins in the States.

[@drwhatson]

@@owstonlad3859 A chance would be a fine thing... but I only ever bought near-mint-excellent condition 45s, however rare. Even as a kid I looked after my records properly - and kept them well away from my kid sister! :-)

[@bettyflipflop8823]

Paddy obviously had great taste in music on the right label! Hope you do really well with all of them.

[@djtrishm]

I saw that trojan 45 and was like yes get it get it! Lots of cool pick ups! I myself love soul and reggae! Thumbs up! Trish

[@stepheno1870]

You dug deep & went into the zone, I like that, kudos to the patient…👍

[@BrumReseller]

Knew there was good stuff there so i kind of sacked the car boot off and dug in was defo worth it

[@jonhollinsworth8785]

Love that crown heights affair album. Music is the World! is a banger!

[@vimtocrazy739]

Every trip to the Casino I would buy a single for £2 . There now worth considerably more .It was all part of the experience. Hope Paddy enjoyed it as much as me . Great times .

[@OldMod67]

What an absolute dream of a find. At my age I still love flicking through a pile of singles, bin liners full of cool labels is amazing. Despite leaving some being, you picked some great 7" here. I saw that Action label and thought Eddie Holman, no way! But The Olympics 45 is a great pick-up. Congratulations on your finds.

[@F3zza]

Amazing what you can find just thrown into a bin bag.

[@BrumReseller]

Gotta love the car boot

[@psychinthevalleys5324]

You know it is a big dig when it gets light by the time you've finished. What a fantastic bunch of finds. There is always a touch of regret about the ones you might've missed but like you said, you can't just buy the lot when others are also looking as well. Just not the done thing. Really enjoyed the video. John sent me over after his video. All the best, Steve.

[@onlya_northernsoul]

😮 unbelievable. That was a mountainous find. I just had my mouth open watching that. Saw couple of Monks in there. Some stunning labels I think a lot would have been guessing stuff, great dig that. Reminded me of last summer hitting on a big box of 7”s and sifting through guessing, 20p each, kicking myself for not offering for the box. Still took over£700 in records though for less than a tenner 😃. Find of a lifetime in punk, rocksteady and reggae, recently sold a Prince buster try a little tenderness from it for £520. Man days like that don’t happen often. So made up for new exactly how you were feeling looking through them 😂. Brought the rush back for me that did. Top vid!!!!!

[@ChrissyAnderton-FunkyJunky]

I was so jealous, lol, found myself saying 'get it, get it, no not that, get it.....' on and on, then ' get the bloody lot' lol! I wouldnt be able to get home fast enough to see what I'd bought! Enjoyed that - something about finding/collecting rare soul reaches a part that nothing else does! Thanks for the film! xx

[@jonkino]

You did alright there mate. Now worth £425 ,the one copy on Discogs. I think I’d have cried if I’d have seen all those records just dumped in bags like that.

[@drwhatson]

Bootleg. Worth FA. :-)

[@TheBudgie29]

A guy had £250k of northern soul records stolen. He has a reward of £14k for there return or If you know who stole them. So to find some on a Boot Sale at cheap prices In Suspicious to me. Wouldn't happen here.

[@haydndavies6917]

Amazing haul I love Northern Soul

[@jlaunder1]

You done good for a dig of genres you're no expert on. Getting in the zone and firing up those vinyl senses. Grabbing the obscure and interesting looking labels. I'd have done much the same. Short of sitting there with your phone out and scrolling through discogs, which might have bagged a few more gems, you've got to be well chuffed with that.

[@lmc3307]

I’m a record collector and I know a bit about northern and it looks like you picked up pretty much everything I would have. Some gems in there mate well done!

[@collectapaul]

Defo spotted a 1st print cheeky girls single in there. Mega.

[@Keepingthefaith72]

Surprised to see some of the Northern tracks at a car boot sale . Might have to start going to some ......😁😁😁

[@lisaaltavilla4095]

I'm really gutted for Ted Massey , who had his lifetime of record collection stollen !! If anyone finds rare northern soul stuff , they could be Ted's , !!!!!, I do hope he can get some of his records back , I've seen ted at soul nights and he played the best set , please help him get his records back ♥️♥️♥️

[@nigelarkwright8132]

You put some decent records back

[@davidsparkes4377]

I have been into Northern for over 40 years, it does come up quite rarely at carboots. I have found a few gems at them, including the original Bobby Goldsboro Two many People for 50p, goes for a couple of hundred ££. I did see that you put down a few that might be worth a bit.. You put down the re issue of The Pointer sisters Send him back.. and a couple by the Contours.. but you did get a couple of blinders so worth what you paid for the lot.. Year of the Northern stack 😅also some Motown can be worth a bit, picked up Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell's ain't no mountain high enough first issue for 50p last week goes for £70 to £90.. I started collecting again a few years ago after I sold my original collection. If you find an American copy of Wade Flemons Jeanette on Ramsel its worth £1200 I know I had it once 😍love your vid

[@nunu1958]

bobby goldsboro would have to be a mint uk demo to get anywhere near £200!

[@drwhatson]

"Bobby Goldsborough" Lol Pop crap.

[@nigelarkwright8132]

That was one of the best. Clarence. Rest were bootlegs mainly

[@AndyPandy5171]

Apparently a Northern soul DJ has had his Northern soul records stolen after a break in at his Birmingham home.

[@peteraston1991]

Some great finds well done 👍

[@jdrecords]

You should have bought them all mate, I started off selling Northern Soul in the 80s and some of the stuff you put back I would have pulled your arms off for. If you had offered him £50 for the lot he may have taken it. I bought 700 Northern Soul records in the 90s at a car boot for 10p each once.

[@drwhatson]

Bootlegs.

[@jefb2361]

I like to wonder WHERE lots of records like that come from and who they belonged to. Which loft, who died & left them, the places they were played and enjoyed. God only knows.

[@rooie16]

Well, unbelievable as this might sound, in the video, that particular copy of Fathers Angels Bok to Bach on the (bootleg) blue Port label was originally bought by myself in Kidderminster, back in the late 1970’s. It’s my teenage handwriting and ‘graffiti’ on the red sleeve. The single asterisk at the top left denotes how much I liked the record at the time > 1 asterisk = ok, 5 equalled I love it. I don’t remember when / where I sold it, but I reckon it was probably over 30 years ago now. I still have some of those cardboard sleeves with my writing on... kzbin.infoouqZYbg1QZQ?feature=share
