Anoraks Corner Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 1966 was a great year for " our " music , as the label released these fine recordings ...... True...this one was recorded on February 9th: The Ambers 66VK260/1 Now I'm In Trouble / I Love You Baby They also recorded these two sides on the same day, but they remain unissued: 66VK258/9 The Key To My Happiness*** / Loving You ***- Considering the credits it is safe to assume that this is a version of the Charades MGM classic!!!
Guest Matt Male Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Three of my favourites, Williams and Ledbetter the best on this label for me
Harry Crosby Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 Great choice of Label this week roger, i suspect this will be a long thread, here a couple of my faves
Guest Posted December 12, 2010 Posted December 12, 2010 (edited) Ambers also recorded these two sides on the same day, but they remain unissued: 66VK258/9 The Key To My Happiness*** / Loving You ***- Considering the credits it is safe to assume that this is a version of the Charades MGM classic!!! I have thought for a long time that MGM must have some great unrealesed tracks. Like the above record there could be different versions of known records etc.. The "RARE, COLLECTABLE AND SOULFUL" RCA CD's were great, it would be good to have the same done with the MGM recordings! Edited December 12, 2010 by Guest

Looking forward to this one too, It's a shame that Refosoul is down at the moment as it's undergoing an Upgrade.
Anoraks Corner Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I have a American football college style jacket with Verve on the back and a V on the front...plus my name...was a promotional gift back in the mid-8Ts, which was nice!
