  • i have the 1000 volts john holt original record is it worth a fortune!?

  • @BLACKOPSPROTWIN

    it's worth a few bucks, but nothing to really jump up and down about - about $20 US if it's in pretty good condition. there were a lot of copies of it, it was kind of a crossover reggae/pop record for Holt and not really rare.

    some of the original Studio One and Treasure Isle singles can get pricy, though.

  • Takin it BACK, way way back back to your ROOTZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I dont mess around when it comes to my roots with this music

  • @Reggae45s Parents had vinyls....still do after 20yrs...used to play them on the weekends. Loved my 'roots&kulchah' from when I was a kid in the 80's/90's!!!

  • @Reggae45s never mess man

  • This has to be one of my favourite, if not, my all time favourite John holt song...I remember dancing to this song when i was a little girl with my dad. He used to play it every night. Thanks for posting this and bringing back those memories : )

  • hwo is the athor of this song?

  • I believe the originl artist was the 1970s American singer/ songwriter, Lobo.

  • Every tune on this album is hard..x

  • lol thoes records show ur age. the middles came out and u needed a plastic circle to play them haha "great song BTW!"

  • Not really, I wasnt around when these records were released, I got them all from relatives. Whats wrong with age anyways?

  • @Reggae45s

    hen thought the middles of the records came out, but didnt they just used to make em that way? i have records like that and it doesnt seem like anything came out of the middle..

  • @thepandadan All of the 7 inch records that were distributed to Jamaica did not have the centers in them for some reason...unlike the7 inchers in europe.

  • @Reggae45s Even Technics 1210s made in the last five years came with a chunky aluminium disc on a stem which was part of the platter for placing on the spindle of the turntable. Many European 7"s came with either no middle or a flimsy little plastic weave thing for the same purpose that always got lost. So you needed the metal doodad. You know that though man. Thanks for the tune - great to hear it again.

  • Alot of 7" are pressed like that even to this day. If you knew any thing about vinyl and good music you would know that.

  • Sorry forgot to compliment the Tune. Nothing like the sweet sound of Mr Holt!!

  • @aDuffPaddy I lived back then, 45's are what you refer to, the middle was NOT there, on purpose, it was just a "single" w/a flip-side on it, the albums had a tiny hole & was "33 & a third" (331/3 rpm) before that, were very thick records called 78's (78rpm's), which were thicker and more brittle than the newer lp's (long-playing albums). The plastic thingy was for cheaper record players that didn't have a built-in record holder or a large cylinder that you placed onto the record player.

  • @funkateerkitty

    Are the 78's worth anything at all. I have loads of em!

  • @funkateerkitty

    Are the 78's worth anything at all. I have loads of em!

    Thumbs up from me.

  • @Richardyboy Yes, for collectors and owners of good victrolas...always a buyer for EVERYTHING...one man's junk is another man's treasure. Bless up. Kitty

  • @Richardyboy NOPE I binned all mine. Shame but nothing else to do with them :(

  • @aDuffPaddy The Oldies 45's Often Came From Pub & Cafe Jukeboxes, which required the middles to be removed from them to work as the positioning mechanism on the turntable was not very accurate , I worked for a jukebox company for some years, in them days you could get a machine which punched out the middles
