Oh So Rare!!

About the rarest record and most sought after soul record of all time is about to go on sale!!...Yes.. you can actually buy it if you have very deep pockets.

Frank Wilson wrote and recorded "Do I Love You" (Indeed I Do) in 1965 and 6 demo copies were pressed up on Soul, the Motown subsidiary label, ahead of its scheduled release in November of that year. However Motown boss Berry Gordy wasn’t that impressed with the perfomrance of the song, and suggested Wilson stick to songwriting and producing. Copies were, as usual, ordered to be destroyed, but some (if not all six of them) survived. Only two copies were known to exist for certain in collecting circles, with Gordy himself claiming to also own one. However more copies have always rumoured to exist, and many stories and myths exist about them....

The song became very popular when it made its way onto the northern soul scene of England in the 7T`s. Record Collector Kenny Burrel famously paid £15,000 for his copy in 1996, but this new third copy should go for a much higher price than that. The record is to be sold via the John Manship auction site between March 14th and April 8th
