The World's Rarest Soul Record Pt. 3 - For Sale Again!

Well the saga continues! After buying one of only two known copies of Frank Wilson's "Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)" on Soul S-35109 (a white label test pressing has subsequently turned up making three known copies on vinyl) in Aug 2020, the buyer Lee Jeffries has put it up on his Sonic Wax website for a set sale of a staggering £150,000. He, allegedly, paid £100,000 for it, so 'only' a 50% mark up in under four years! Will anyone bite?

We originally posted about the record and it's history in Sep 2009 (which has now received 10,245 views) when Edinburgh DJ Kenny Burrell auctioned his copy via John Manship Records (which he had bought for £15,000 in 1999 from record dealer Tim Brown) to an unnamed buyer for almost £26,000. In Aug 2020 we posted an update when Lee Jeffries bought that copy for what was said to be £100,000. 

It is most definitely now out of most people's league at that sort of price and only the very rich (and perhaps stupid?) are able to afford it but no doubt 'someone' will buy it for the 'kudos'.
