Ted Massey Posted February 21, 2010 Author Posted February 21, 2010 good innit, Butch spinning it and Andy Dyson. is it album only Chalky
Garethx Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 A very rare record. When I heard this on the US issued Willie Tee compilation about seven or eight years ago I asked a lot of knowledgeable people about it and no-one had ever heard of it. Subsequent requests on forums drew similar blanks but a couple of years ago both Tony Rounce and Sean Hampsey said they had seen it listed but didn't own it. On the Bonatemp label and I'd guess dating from around between the timeframe Nola records folded and Willie Tee signed to Capitol. Bonatemp was also Willie's publishing company on his early Nola and Atlantic classics. Appeared on ebay about eighteen months ago. I bid a fair bit of money for it (four figures in sterling) but was swatted away like the fly that I am! Tremendous midtempo soul with a good b-side too: sort of Willie Tee sings "Ain't That Peculiar", which I'm sure could get spins too.

Blow me Gareth ........that's one that slipped thru the net for me...love listening to Willie Tee ... had one of the re-issue lp's with this on and honestly thought it was lp only and as i write this i've just researched cos i distinctly remember there were lp only cuts on that album. BACKTRACKED THE ALBUM info says Originally Released As: Bonatemp 401 Your totally correct
Garethx Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 BONATEMP 401 - It went for £700, Oct 08. That's the one. My bid must have been four figures in US dollars, but it clearly wasn't enough. This record is so rare that I'm sure the winner would have bid a very large sum to acquire it.
Guest gordon russell Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 lovely mid tempo tune.........not to be played at a disco methinks
Garethx Posted February 21, 2010 Posted February 21, 2010 lovely mid tempo tune.........not to be played at a disco methinks There should always be room for something this classy from a giant of soul music. Knocks spots off many recent discoveries and would have been a monster at any of the great venues of the past if it had been more widely available.
Ted Massey Posted February 22, 2010 Author Posted February 22, 2010 lovely mid tempo tune.........not to be played at a disco methinks Not really that much difference in Tempo from the Earles he Tezz
Marc Forrest Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 That's the one. My bid must have been four figures in US dollars, but it clearly wasn't enough. This record is so rare that I'm sure the winner would have bid a very large sum to acquire it. Mine was too low as well..second highest just isn`t good enough LOL!
Dave Thorley Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Mine was too low as well..second highest just isn`t good enough LOL! Think this copy went to a DJ with a name beginning with 'B' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Marc Forrest Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Think this copy went to a DJ with a name beginning with 'B' !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Definitely...the very same "B" that once overbid me on that Capell 45 LOL...well, its all part of the fun isn`t it
Guest gordon russell Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Not really that much difference in Tempo from the Earles he Tezz yep ted you're right.................should'nt play the earls either lol
Wrongcrowd Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 yep ted you're right.................should'nt play the earls either lol This is the quality of music that sets standards at all-nighters...and there's nothing wrong, and absoluetly everything right with playing mid-tempo tunes..... There's plenty of room for all tempos, as proven by the quality of tunes played and embraced at Stafford. There's a good few uptempo tunes played out today that wouldn't have cut it a few years ago...plenty completely devoid of soul....

There's a good few uptempo tunes played out today that wouldn't have cut it a few years ago...plenty completely devoid of soul.... Could'nt agree more Cliff One of the biggest reasons i don't go to many nighters is the silly bollox policy of so called "uptempo" 60's . Am i right in thinking this policy is something to do with keeping people on their toes, thus ensuring they stay awake ?? Each to their own but i like soul music regardless of tempo .....one of my biggest regrets is missing the whole stafford era
Ted Massey Posted February 22, 2010 Author Posted February 22, 2010 yep ted you're right.................should'nt play the earls either lol You asked me to play it Tezz at Burnley no less, regret not doing it but it gets played every time now
Dave Thorley Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 Just a few less paced things that prove the point, quality is what counts, not tempo. Sam Dees - Lonley for you baby Soul Brothers Inc - Pyramid Johnny Gilliam - Room full of tears Bill Wright - Man in love 1

Corbett80 Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 Think Thorsten picked one up in Austin too - also dark blue Bonatemp.
Woodbutcher Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 Fingers well and truly burnt if it's not a real one ... just went for $5988.00 ....

Soulcarp Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 Don't know it's just all wrong a few years ago I got my fingers burnt with a record until I find the details of that seller I can't say any more but it was from a guy from that area in France
Garethx Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 (edited) This record is completely 100% legit and probably the best copy ever available for sale in the world. The others looked relatively dark because they were comparatively worn and moisture damaged. Also the lighting/exposure/flash will play a part in what colour the label presents in photographs. If the buyer gets what's in that photo it's totally and utterly authentic. Edited July 11, 2019 by Garethx 2

Dave Pinch Posted July 11, 2019 Posted July 11, 2019 the copy i posted some 8 or 9 years ago was in real bad shape and cracked with label damage... no reason this new listing not real... they got to turn up at some point
