The 45 is listed in Brown & Koppel's "The Essential Northern Soul Price Guide" edition 2.

It looks like it is a Chicago group (or from the surrounding area) based on the release number.

No other 45s are listed by them in the book.

Maybe a Chicago expert can tell us more.

Same label as Mello Souls, I asume?

Charles Colbert later cut "What price for love" on Bennie Shaw on Excello. It is far superior to the Heatwaves and is, imo, in the premier league of midpaced northern releases. It is a superb record waiting to be "discovered" and is extremely rare.

Thanks, Bob.

So the other Mellow label is not from Chicago?

no, according to posts on this board (I don't know first hand), it's from delaware and the mello souls are somehow related to silas phipher and the mellow fellows on candi

Thanks for the info.

Sorry for the off-topic posts.
