Guest dx052 Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 I have seen the 7" single and it also features on a very expensive comp, is the single the cheapest and easiest format to get hold of it?
Guest Posted December 13, 2010 Posted December 13, 2010 Don't know about expencive lp but they did do a lp called "He", two Canadian 7" releases a orange label and yellow one "LinDee" about £20 i think, maybe more ?

Dean Posted December 24, 2010 Posted December 24, 2010 The orange lable is Gamma about a tenna Was this a boot or a case of large amounts coming to light. Remember about the same time of East Coast Connection - Summer in the Parks. Both played out extensively and then available for £1.

Wiggyflat Posted December 27, 2010 Posted December 27, 2010 I thought it was a Canadian group and Kev Roberts imported them in bulk.Great record though.Did they do anything else decent?
Dave Thorley Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) The group are from just outside of Detroit, Lou Edwards of 'Talking bout poor folks' fame. Dave Welding put up a piece on them a little while back, Lou has put out a couple of nice CD's in the last 10 years or so. Edited December 28, 2010 by Dave Thorley
Goldsoul Posted December 28, 2010 Posted December 28, 2010 (edited) I did import it from Canada as a new release. I was on a New York record pool mailing service and received it on Gamma I think. Not sure of any Detroit connection. New Jersey label Lindee picked it up for US release. It saw a little action in the NY area and of course........Cleethorpes!

Goldsoul Posted January 2, 2011 Posted January 2, 2011 Ken- A good observation, but that pressing was made in New Jersey. Quite why the record company added 'Made in Canada' is a mystery. But trust me, Lindee is from NJ. The record was made for me by that company in 1976.

I have it on Gamma Orange label and it came from John Anderson for not much more than 45p, in fact it was just after decilamisation... is thaqt how you spell it. Though mine was orig. Explain please !!!!!
Guest dx052 Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) (Can anyone explain this one?) Edited January 3, 2011 by dx052
Goldsoul Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 The original was on Canadian Gamma. I first imported around 200 into rhe UK as a new release. Then it was leased to Lindee who had an association with another record I discovered Hipit by Hosanna and Nowhere by Hocus Pocus. Lindee pressed up the single for US distribution and imported around 500. So both are originals from different countries. It sold decently in Canada but failed in the US. That's about all I can remember about it.
Guest Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 I think the original original is on French lp on AZ, He was recorded in Paris France and got a UK release on RCA 7" and ain't that good like the rest of the lp, save SOS of coarse.................... Could have saved a bit of money importing it from it's country of the original,Kev
Goldsoul Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 I doubt it. The US was cheap to import from back then, with virtually no import duty. 34 years ago remember.
Guest Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 I doubt it. The US was cheap to import from back then, with virtually no import duty. 34 years ago remember. Nicer picture sleeve though
Steve Plumb Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Just found my Lindee & Gamma copies Keeping the Gamma but Lindee for sale cheap if anyone wants it? (Fookin great record, always loved it. I remember it being pretty popular at The Ritz All Dayers too ) Cheers Steve
Soul Shrews Posted January 3, 2011 Posted January 3, 2011 Have this on an Italian LP (Derby)............longer version at 4;43 and just titled "All We Need Is Time For Love" Think I posted a picture or two on an earlier thread States on sleeve and label "An original AZ recording, Paris" Still love it Cheers Paul
Godzilla Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Just spotted something that reminded me of this thread. Wonder if Gamma put out any 45s that weren't called S.O.S. ? Out of interest there's confirmation that it's of French origin as suggested by a couple of people. The writers were the Paris based production team Michaele, Lana and Paul Sebastian. Link to Discogs
Cunnie Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Nice thread. Just been chatting to Adrian who used to run Strads with Steve Croft in Rotherham & he said they had it for sale in 1975 on Gamma & also on French label AZ. Did a quick search & all sounds about right & there's an AZ copy for sale on Discogs really cheap if you're quick. https://www.discogs.com/Todays-People-SOS-All-We-Need-Is-Time-For-Love/master/244595 The long version on the Italian Derby album from 1974 is a bit of a mystery though but it does tie in with other work by the writers & if owning true originals is your thing it looks like the album is the one you need to buy (best version too IMO). While there also did a search of the Derby label & there was no mention of Will Collins & Willpower but thats something for another thread I guess.
Cheapsiderecords Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 Was at a local vintage toy and collectors sale yesterday as I heard there were a couple of record sellers going to be there and there were about 7 other 45's on Gamma label. I did not buy any but am now wondering what other soul stuff might be on the label?

Guest Imogen Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 Nice picture sleeve Ken. I have the Lindee press ,always thought it was a boot because there seemed to be more Gamma copies floating about. Great record but never heard it out.

Jim G Posted September 12, 2012 Posted September 12, 2012 What does the yellow LinDee issue go for these days? Is it rarer than the Gamma one?
