Agreed melody house is expensive when it comes to the rare stuff they have around the place , mainly old italian zone classics .

They also have loads of other stuff , ex dj collections , new stuff etc etc which aint that badly priced at all .

You muzt Rezizt!!!. Thats what I tell myself when i go there, look but dont touch :). Hell, I look, laugh inanely, cry at having them in my grasp, then go again to cry in privacy.

I mean, 15+ quid for the 96 remixes of Love Decade! (not that I wanted it) and thats a cheap one.
There was a few very tasty tunes when I went last, but obviously they are the 'real' rare ones I have searched long and hard for, however, I was not going to pay over 60 quid for a slab of plastic, even if Jesus had made it himself.

See ya

Sirius.

id pay over the odds for a tune if i wanted it that much i mean these tunes were made in like 90-95 we no longer live in them years and so like n e thin in life if u cant get summet no more the value goes up n up. if i didnt play places like i do then nah id think sod that i aint payin £50 for 1 tune but droppin 1 of them said tunes to hundreds of people and seein there heads fall off thee shoulders well for me it makes it totally worth it. i dont blame melody house for gettin what they can for a tune if i could sell a peice of fluff to sum 1 for a fiver or 250 quid i know what id do. its not like there forcin ya to buy em now is it

my opinion n e ways

thats always been my opinion if you really want a tune then buy it.if i was like butty i wouldnt think twice about paying over the odds for a tune like he said espcially the buzz of playing to a packed dancefloor.

I can remember going to the shop in the mid 90's and paying cost price for all the Italian stuff, there would be loads of people in the shop listining to the choons, it was a real hive of the old skool community.

I'm not sure if Melody House still do this but they once sent me a complete list of all the second hand Italian choons that they had in stock so i could purchase via mail order, living in Cumbria this helped loads lol

There was some choons that were selling for 100 nicker:eek:

On a different note, does anyone know if the tapes or CD for the 11th Birthday Party is out yet?
