gazman Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I know this was previously un released and it's on a Kent single but was the Ref-O-ree release legit or a boot? thanks gary
gazman Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 yes, it's clearly very recently done, I thought I'd read somewhere that it was a legit release, so I wanted to clarify one way or t'other. gary
NEV Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I know this was previously un released and it's on a Kent single but was the Ref-O-ree release legit or a boot? thanks gary Its been out for a few yrs now as this copy but as for who pressed it and do they own the rights ?? As far as i'm aware the only legit copyu is the kent anniversary with san fran tko's on the flip.
Reforee Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 As far as I am aware it is not a legit release unless it has been licensed from Ted Jarrett or Ace/Kent. Got an acetate of this of Adey for the little bit of help i did for them with the Cds. I have resisted buying one for my collection as I dont see it as legit?????????? If it is then I am one missing from the label Cracking tune Dave Halsall
Goldsoul Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I'd say boot... Mal Wrong Mal......the track along with 20 other masters were licensed by Fred James of Bluesland owners of Ref-o-Ree and Spar. Most
NEV Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 Wrong Mal......the track along with 20 other masters were licensed by Fred James of Bluesland owners of Ref-o-Ree and Spar. Most And it says so on the actual 45 Quick where can i get one for a fiver,seen as i sold it when i thought it was a boot
Goldsoul Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I'd say boot... Mal [/quote Wrong Mal..... Fred James at Bluesland, owners of Spar and Ref-o-Ree licensed 20 tracks to Goldsoul which in turn were used to compile the now deleted cd title 'Golden Age of Northern Soul vol.2 As a limited 45, we made 300 on the label's imprint Ref-o-Ree. It didn't sell. And if my memory serves me correctly, we sold most to Crazy Beat as...like a few collectors thought...it must be a boot. Actually it's perfectly legit. But as Goldsoul are no longer in the Record Distribution business, we really have no interest. That alone will probably make the record valuable, as less copies were distributed than the Kent single.

Kev at Goldsoul SWEET Always seemed a shame to have to pay big money cos San fran Tko's was on the flip Great record but i always wanted it for this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jQ_2xvsNKc Nev Sweet indeed. I was sure I'd read something about it being legit but managed to talk myself out of it. Probably £6 well spent then!!! THANKS AGAIN CHAPS! gary

THANKS AGAIN CHAPS! garyi,ve got an acetate of this but sounds earlier and got male group on backing anyone know anything about this....
gazman Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 i,ve got an acetate of this but sounds earlier and got male group on backing anyone know anything about this.... I'd love to hear it, any chance of posting it up? gary
Goldsoul Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 I'd love to hear it, any chance of posting it up? gary It's unreleased from 1972. Kent discovered it as they were dealing with Fred James before Goldsoul. Unfortunately when we decided to run with it, the track had been pretty much used up, hence it didn't sell for us. We have about 8 copies left if anyone wants them at £5 each. Pay at orders@goldsoul.co.uk I think only Ace have the rights to it now,though the owner shows up on Google as a licensor....still. Brilliant track that will get much bigger. I regularly play it on Solar. Great discovery by Kent.
