NEV Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Always amazes me , when one of the big money records appears on ebay and someone starts a thread regarding price Loads of people come on and start knocking the tune. It's totally irrelevant to the thread topic imho The fact is theyre rare and obviously very desirable to a lot of soul collectors ,but only a few can afford em. If you were at a rare soul venue and someone put J.D BRYANT on the decks, trust me it'd sound awesome out loud. Even William Powell in the right venue i:e a proper Northern soul night ,would fill the floor and have em drooling. Theyre collectors pieces to me ,great examples that represent the scene wether you like the "rare soul" scene or the nostalgic oldies sounds. I'm sure we all know a £10 record that sounds better ,but it has nothing to do with the price /rarity of the subject in hand. Needless to say we are here to debate so carry on ...who thinks all shrine records are overpriced ,over hyped and just boring pieces of plastic But then again ..we are here to debate all things soul ,so carry on Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Personal top three Shrine tracks (that come to mind w/out 2nd thought): 1) Shirley Edwards - Dream my heart 2) JD Bryant - I won't be coming back 3) Ray Pollard - No more like me These three overshadow everything else that was recorded for Shrine (IMO!)

Needless to say we are here to debate so carry on ...who thinks all shrine records are overpriced ,over hyped and just boring pieces of plastic But then again ..we are here to debate all things soul ,so carry on Fair point and I agree to an extent. The rarity and that kudos of owning something which nobody, or only a handful of others possess, have always been an integral part of the Northern scene. The problem I have with this area of collecting is how it affects the price of everything else. The higher the big rarities go, the higher the general price of records has risen, to the point where we now have 100s of records which used to be obtainable for 20 or so, selling at £100 every time a dealer gets hold of one. There are no more or less of these records around and a lot of people have copies of them, they simply bought them at an earlier point before the prices inflated. As for Shrine itself, personally I think the records are somewhat overrated, somebody has said JD BRYANT would sound great up loud at a Niter, but it depends on where you place the barometer of 'great'.... Nothing on the label (In my opinion) comes close to touching something from Motown like SPINNERS 'I'll always love you', which remains a 20 quid odd record, but as a piece of 60S dance soul, eptimomises perfection.

The 45 in the picture is the one playing and he discusses it in the comments. Here's the link You're right though, there is another version. Thanks Matt. I stand corrected: it's nice to hear the 45 at close quarters, even through weedy PC speakers. I think there are three distinct mixes: this one (lots of echo on the falsetto lead vocal from about half way through); the mix used on the Kent Shrine compilation CD and the mix used on the Horace's vinyl LP which (to my ears) sounds quite different again. Am I right in thinking that the latter was done from the unmixed master tape by Eddie Singleton himself before a copy of the 45 actually resurfaced? Perhaps Ady C. or Andy Rix can enlighten us. I don't have the facility to upload soundfiles but it might be instructive if someone could kindly upload the versions from both 'Capitol Soul Volume 2' on Horace's and the Kent Shrine CD. I must say I prefer the Horace's mix, but this may be a case of it being the first way I heard the tune. Whatever, to me it's one of the single greatest harmony Northern records bar none. Those who knock Shrine as a label misunderstand its appeal I think. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
