hrtshpdbox Posted June 29, 2010 Posted June 29, 2010 Any good? What do you make, if anything, of the small-holed variety (still U.S., probably, right?). Feedback appreciated. Furys - Over You - Furys - So Tuff -
hrtshpdbox Posted July 1, 2010 Author Posted July 1, 2010 OK, I've set up a lottery system to sort through all the private message I've received from people who want my extra copy. Well, there's not been any inquiries, I'm kidding. Nor, obviously, any comments on the two sound clips above. Not even a "those tracks are dire, are you daft, man?". And I think I know why. It's because I'm a Yank, isn't it? I can handle the truth, don't hold back. I know that, in addition to all the negatives normally associated with Americans, we're now seen as endlessly excoriating Bri...uhh, BP Corporation. Well, I haven't done so! I'm an Anglophile, I believe in the "special relationship"! So, anyway....we don't think much of the songs, right?
Ady Croasdell Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 They sound OK to me, though a bit early for soul, more Coasters style R&B. The group are well thought of, i particularly like Baby You Can Bet Your boots. The small centre just looks like one got through without being dinked by the machine. Nice item though Ady
hrtshpdbox Posted July 1, 2010 Author Posted July 1, 2010 Thanks, Ady. I'd thought that, too, about the small hole example (that the center had just not been knocked out), but the diameter of that center section is a bit smaller than the standard large-hole 45.

But the outer circle of it looks about right, so perhaps the machine took the whole darn thing out!
Chalky Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Like Ady said bit too early for the Northern Scene. However the "What Is Soul/I Lost My Baby" on the same label different kettle of fish, great northern, played both sides out over this side of the pond

However the "What Is Soul/I Lost My Baby" on the same label different kettle of fish, great northern, played both sides out over this side of the pond Yes, I've got one of those as well, thought this one might be interesting in that it seems less well-known.
Chalky Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 Yes, I've got one of those as well, thought this one might be interesting in that it seems less well-known. Might be of some use to the collectors, only a cheapie though, but way too early for the Northern Scene me thinks.
Guest Posted July 1, 2010 Posted July 1, 2010 I like "never more" by them and whoever took my "what is soul" i hope you choke on it.
Anoraks Corner Posted July 2, 2010 Posted July 2, 2010 Fabulous group...awesome vocals My fave Mack IV track is easily, 'Another fella' (which also came out on a French 7" EP, albeit a weaker mix)...huge production mid-tempo mover with superb string arrangement. If anyone has a WD they like to sell/swap, then I'm your man...can offer up a mint black label stock copy too!
