<blockquote><blockquote><blockquote>There's a similar book put out by Dave Brown and Martin Kopula (of Kop's fame) that worth getting as a substitute. K. </blockquote> I'm not trying to be nit picky but just to help anyone that is trying to track down a copy of this book (myself included) if by author. Its written by Tim Brown and Martin Koppel finding books you want can be a pain alone and especially if you get the wrong names by mistake. I may have to give your boy's store a ring on this one. Here is what Dusty groove had on the book before they sold out of copies. I have been waiting, hoping they will manage to restock this one since January. <blockquote>Martin Koppel & Tim Brown -- Essential Northern Soul Price Guide . . . Book . . . $26.99 (Out Of Stock) Goldmine (UK), 2004 Condition: New Copy A tremendous reference book -- one that's essential for any fan of classic soul! The book's ostensibly a price guide -- and features rough UK pricing for over 20,000 hard to find singles. But the real charm, to us, is the way that the book breaks down the music -- by listing artists alphabetically, then running through important singles along with original label of release, catalog numbers, and genre -- telling you whether a record is Northern Soul, R&B, 70s, modern, mod, or pop! We can't say that we support the prices -- because, like shopping on Ebay, pricing rare records is tricky tricky business. But we can say that the book is essential when you're out digging for records, as it will help you figure out what's harder to find and what it might sound like! The book features a few label scans of rare records in full color, but most of the 342 oversize pages are in black and white -- laid out very clearly, in an easy to read style that makes the whole thing a delight! <img src="http://www.dustygroove.com/images/products/k/koppel_mart_essential_101b.jpg" alt="" /> </blockquote> </blockquote> I got in touch with Kop's and they still have copies for sale. I believe they quoted me $50 including shipping. </blockquote> Call Henry and tell him I sent you (KEvin) - you might get a better price. K. P.S. i always spell Martin's name wrong! It comes froma derogatory nickname we made up for him (and it's stuck).
