"You Want To Change Me" b/w "Dreamy" borrows heavily from the sounds of Star Trek and The Fifth Dimension's rendition of Jimmy Webb's "Up, Up and Away" (take a ride in my beautiful balloon). Those elements aren't there in the demo of "Dreamy" that Bobby tracked at this point in time, circa 1968.<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size:180%;"><em><span style="color: rgb(153, 51, 153);">The Phenomenon of "You Want To Change Me" b/w "Dreamy"</span></em> </span><br /><br />It preceded the Love Games (Epic) album by two years - an album which itself would herald the sound that Gamble & Huff would make so popular, the Philly Soul Sound - T.S.O.P. - and now the single is bootlegged by Northern Soul connoisseurs on both vinyl and CD compilations as well as getting noteriety as a huge sales item. We've been monitoring the sales for the past 8 years or so on eBay, since around 1999 and "You Want To Change Me" b/w "Dreamy" consistently sells for anywhere from $35.00 to over $100.00 depending on how much people want it - supply and demand - on any given day. We've seen multiple copies go on eBay in one week - and the tracking we have on file.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4BgOtWTPE93q-cXV44MSwY8Xq2HsTMxWmI5mhNcniKkvX0PTBar3Iy8oqt60GICBEt_fFhsWGvpNOxYGJIQJPtaXbQeiMI0_Q8sqQL6NnHNA_l96L45qVF2cm0QBhWsCOgKPqUHLvA7Vt/s1600-h/Dreamy.JPG"><img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4BgOtWTPE93q-cXV44MSwY8Xq2HsTMxWmI5mhNcniKkvX0PTBar3Iy8oqt60GICBEt_fFhsWGvpNOxYGJIQJPtaXbQeiMI0_Q8sqQL6NnHNA_l96L45qVF2cm0QBhWsCOgKPqUHLvA7Vt/s320/Dreamy.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5103246698500763586" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />eBay is a true and accurate worldwide market value as fans get to tune in to this site and make their bid. These prices aren't manufactured by musicologists who work for various R & B and collectors magazines, this is the marketplace determing the very high value for this remarkable single.<br /><br />Read my review of LOVE GAMES to get more insight.<br /><br /><br /><hr /><br /><br />LOVE GAMES<br /><a href="http://www.windowsmedia.com/MediaGuide/Templates/AlbumInfo.aspx?a_id=R%20%20%20537188">http://www.windowsmedia.com/MediaGuide/Templates/AlbumInfo.aspx?a_id=R%20%20%20537188</a><br /><br /><hr /><br /><br /><br />The LOVE GAMES album features a re-make of "You Broke My Heart", a single Bobby did with Sylvia Robinson of "Pillow Talk" fame. It also features "Charms of The Arms Of Love" a song that was demo recorded when "Dreamy" first made it onto tape. "You Want To Change Me" b/w "Dreamy" as well as the "Dreamy" and "Charms of The Arms" demos would be perfect additions to the LOVEGAMES album, as would be this wonderful 45 RPM.<br /><br /><hr /><br /><br /><br />THE TRUE VALUE OF "YOU WANT TO CHANGE ME" b/w "DREAMY"<br /><br />On August 26, 2007 the single sold for <span style="font-weight: bold;font-family:monospace;" >$</span><tt style="font-weight: bold;"><tt>33.01</tt></tt> a bargain on eBay<br /><tt></tt><br /><tt><a href="http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=200140723178" target="_blank"><span id="lw_1188157981_0" style="background: transparent none repeat scroll 0% 50%; -moz-background-clip: -moz-initial; -moz-background-origin: -moz-initial; -moz-background-inline-policy: -moz-initial;">http://offer.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewBids&item=200140723178</span></a></tt><br /><br />This writer put the first bid of 9.99 in and bid up to $18.00.
