Evening All :-)

Back in 1989 I bought a 7" single by James Ray and the Performance in a 2nd had record shop in Bristol

The single is Mexico Sundown Blues A: side is 'Radio Edit' and B: side is 'instrumental'. The catalog number is MRAY 52R. I read a few years back that this 7" may even be classed as a Promo.

What I would like to know is how much this item is worth and I am sure the experts on "Heartland" :notworthy: would be able to help me out.

:eek: Is it? I've got one somewhere that they were giving away free when JR played The Duchess. It's not in very good nick, though (what with being a flexi)

Dare I ask how much it might be worth?

Hmm. I've got a well-use cassette of Dios Esta Del Nuestro Lado. Will anyone give me a bag of crisps for it? Preferably cheese and onion, please.

you can get Beluga Pop quite often on Ebay.

*Searches*

Although there doesn't seem to be one around at the moment! It's where I got mine from anyway.

This guy has it on Netsounds :

Just listened to a few songs off it at amazon.com. Can't blame you.

http://www.skivhugget.se has it, btw. €15 or so. Reliable company.

Unfortunately, I don't speak Swedish at all, so I don't know how to order.
I sent the webmaster a message, but all I knew how to say was "jag har klippt mig," which means "I have had my hair cut."

I'm not hopeful that I'll get any response. Maybe I should have added an "MK Ultra Beluga Pop, bork bork."

My mistake, I thought they still had the Union Jack icon on the front page.
