Dave I have a white label bootleg of Earl van Dyke - 6 By 6 - blank label, poor sound quality, it came from one of the Chateau Impney dj's collections.

That's the one with Dynatones on the flip - thought it was a Soul Sounds thing - Just noticed the number series is the same as Dave's Tams / Chubby ... EVD being HT 1206 A / B

Was that the Soul Sounds numbering, or something else like Magic etc ?

Cheers

Well, the 'Magic' label (bootleg from about 1969) had the Jackie Edwards 'Feel So Bad' but had an original Island UK stamp on the run out (WI 3006). As collectable as the 'Soul Sounds' series too!

No it's not Mick, as I said, it's got 6 By 6 on both sides.

Don't blame me, someone posted it up with the comment "wonderful" so I thought I'd listen to it...

I suppose after the success that the Spencer Davis Group had with Jackie's 'Keep On Running', Mr Fontana thought he might try his hand at one of Jackie's tunes. Not a bad effort really.

Not a bad effort really.

Your ears must be painted on - it's muck.

Hi Soulsters after being told of again by TED for using Bold type, sometimes I wish some people would consider the fact that my education came through my own efforts, as i was bought up in kids homes and approved schools at a time when corporal punishment was the main issue to avoid not spelling and so on if you can get the gist great! and for Te record this is not in any way aimed at Ted, as he is a very good geezer and like all of us he does suffer from Vilaitas a middle class thing! so I have been Informed?

1st things first cheers to you all about the boot all we need to do is find the source, it has no connection to labels like BJD GREENLIGHT SOULSOUND as they are LYNNDISC pressed 100% and the copy I have is a PHILIPS Press hence my suspicion of a Stevens/Abby/Godin collaboration it is well known to those who attended the Scene Flamingo & tiles that bootlegs and 2 page pamphlets on R&B were distributed in these clubs from 64 onwards until the first issues of SOUL HOME OF THE BLUES appeared and these newsletters had record lists on them unfortunately I don't have any as they are very rare indeed? this could give info on the boots, also I cant help making a connection with Sam Nesbits "Black Mother Goose" and this label?? and Mick remember the 777 or was it 444 Chris Jackson acetate that we traded at the Black Horse how come that does not get mentioned any where?? I still believe that there are a few semi legit white label out there, in particular Royce copy of the Ambassadors White Test Pres on JOX 005? this area of soul 45 collecting has always fascinated me? as it was done at a time by individuals who were well ahead of the Game..well lets Keep on Keeping on as more Info is required??

2nd point the REVILOT acetate sounds to me like LIL Carl Carlton and is pure Detroit Magic, I am aware that US 45 collectors gave up on the Detroit sound years ago and the big value records are from the West Coast, However I don't have sheep head stamped on me? this is excellent ***** DAVE(not Bold on this one)KIL

Hello Dave,

Almost forgotton about that one - it was a 444 Acetate - think it went to Tim Ashibende, and a few months later found another one, again moved it on.

I think the problem was that they were demo takes only, with hardly any instumentation - The copy I had off you was like new, the second one was quite rough, with a big label tear, but a slightly better recording - a little more instumentation, but still lacking that ummph.

Wish I had the "other" Chris Jackson song - crackles and pops would not be turned away (Hello John P)

Cheers
