 Got the Derrick and got the Desmond - should probably have clung on to the BBs in hindsight, but the damaged sleeve was a bit of a bummer. It's probably still out there somewhere! I also had in my hands a copy of the Owen Gray Starlite LP with a similarly unfortunate front sleeve - something had clearly got stuck to it and there wasn't much of his face left. I left it and have no idea what price I could have secured it for.

 Got my copy about 30 years ago. Can't remember what I paid for it? I also got their one on Island. I went through a real 'must buy old Ska/Rocksteady UK LP's' phase. So glad I did because I paid a lot less than what they are now valued at.
Yes, mostly Soul on both albums. There are one or 2 Ska tracks on the Island one.

Track B5 'Can't Believe That You're Gone' was fairly in-demand on the Northern Soul scene and I remember hearing it played out.

I'm glad to say I own all 3 UK 'Doctor Bird' LP releases on this site.

 Used to have this one but it had a water damaged front sleeve so I let it go. In contrast with the Island set, there's more soul here. I remember when I was trying to sell it to a dealer I knew and he was running through all the tracks on the deck saying 'nah, no ska on that one, or that one, or that one......' like it was a real negative factor. I probably let him have it for a tenner, which is about what I paid for it a few years earlier.

What I hadn't noticed before is the Pyramid icon on the front bottom right, so presumably earmarked for that label, although the BBs had no 45s out on it.
