Pete got that Japanese one from me and it didn't have a picture sleeve, the one on Johns auction is French and complete with rather nice pic sleeve so it's not Pete's on auction.......of course I could have saved a bit of typing and just said the one John has is mine, which it is!

Seriously hard 45 to find :lol:

hi Nige ,

correct, and it's still in the collection at the minute, but def files under ' potential swap '

b.t.w., its got a royal blue label [ with silver lettering ] ; so I'm wondering what you're thinking of as maroon ?

hope all is well

Yes Ted, JW's "What A Lovely Way" on Brunswick for starters!

Sean

Now we are talking, tell you what Sean, that record sits up there with 'More love', another truly beautiful midtempo classic, the production quality all round is almost unsurpassable. Played it this morning actually and never tire of it's beauty!thumbsup.gif Have never heard it out though, more's the pity.

ANYBODY GOT A COPY THEY`D PART WITH. I KNOW JOHN MANSHIP HAS ONE BUT I THOUGHT ID ASK FELLOW SOURCERS FIRST. THANKS IN ADVANCE

Just stuck a scan of my French picture sleeve on the soul source gallery for those that are interested. Mines on mint blue coral label. Sorry not for sale. I picked mine up in Paris for a couple of Euros with a load of other French eps, but this was best fine. One of those jammy ones.

Just be sincerethumbsup.gif one of the best

Ooooh...have to agree with you there Ted! I bought a Jackie Wilson poster at Ron's Records in New Orleans about 16 years ago which I managed to get back to Shrewsbury in one piece!

My then girlfriend framed it for me for my birthday and it has hung over my mantlepiece ever since! Still the best soul vocalist of alll time IMHO! :thumbup:

Numero uno, without a doubt. For range, tone, technique, breadth of his catalogue. A truly astonishing body of work and styles.thumbsup.gif

Thank you.

I've played it out and mentioned it on here a few times over the years... and only had blank looks in return. :D

Tis a lovely tune and, surprisingly, not well known or recognised.

Another Jackie Wilson sleeping Giant!

:lol:

Amazing cut, Jackie at his best. Reason it never really got picked up on the UK scene is all the copies were snapped up years ago by the Spanish, Italian and French mod collectors, that's how I first heard it courtesy of Edu in Barcelona way back, got a nice mint copy right after that. It was only released in a limited run in France as Kirk Douglas, who was massive in France then, similar to their worship of Jerry Lewis and Mickey Rourke, funny that, agreed to fly over to Paris for the movie's premier there so they put it out to specially mark the event. Have never head the full BO (Bande Originale) lp, very intrigued to hear the Marge Dodson cut if anyone has any insight on that!??
