I have been an avid record collector since the age of about 10 or so. I used to visit towns just to find the second hand shops and get some new records.
Around 1977 or so I decided to go to Doncaster in the UK and find the second hand area and shops ............I did and it as really seedy place . Doncaster is a UK city in the North which is working class and industrial.
So about ten shops in I find a great one with boxes of cheap records.........I look around and sift through the boxes ...........Everything in here is 50p ( about 50cents ?) I 've got about six or so and he guy says that he had another box under an old table that I have not looked in.
I pull it out and they gut says got en off a rep ...............About 6 in is an apple label...........a custom one which is white on green ......I take a quick look .........its Beatles and for 50p it's mine
I buy eight records or so and then go out ..........I've got an apple single which I take a further look at...............
Type written label , custom Apple label
Typed on one side is APPLES 1002 You Know My Name .............The other side WHATS THE NEWS MARY JANE
An unreleased Beatles gem !

Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )
