Juliet Roberts, single sided with the "gospel revival dub" and "pharmacy dub"

i know what the mixes are, 94 mixes I believe, but how much is it worth? can't find one on disogs.

Fleetwood - twinned with Royston Vasey
I think you will find, generally, that acetates do not fetch a high price as they wear out quite quickly and are more for collectors than for playing out. Unless it is by some huge artist, and Juliet Robertson is not one, you may struggle to sell it all IMHO.

I agree about the laquer and after 1 play I can concurr it plays fine, dubplates are not for spinning as you say...it's more that I can't find another release with the same mixes on it, maybe these were not good enough to make the final cut and were discarded.

I made a big mistake years ago by turning down a load of XL dubplates from a record shop which was closing in kent. Most were unreleased remixes but some releases and some unknown.....I could not justify the £5 each at the time!!

I think it's definitely worth more to the individual and the seller - the mixes are on the retail copies. The acetate of "Free Love" has an instrumental Morales mix that wasn't released. There's also a 2x12" promo of "Caught In The Middle" on Slam Jam with additional Roger S remixes:

But discogs refuses to "officially" submit it.

And I wish someone could identify this mix that Tony Humphries played (from an acetate) back in 1995 - the version he plays samples Change "Paradise." Juliet Roberts - Caught In The Middle Unknown Remix - YouTube (I hope it's okay to post the link here).
