Benji Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 (edited) Don't think this been done before. Euro-only 70s dancers that were never relased anywhere else, neither 45 nor LP. First few that come to my mind: Wess - Good time Nina Simone - Touching and caring (not 100% sure this wasn't releases in the states on LP) Patrick Gammon - When can I see you Tony Moore - When will I Any others? There must be plenty... Edited May 6, 2011 by Benji
Hammersoul Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Nina Simone - Touching and caring (not 100% sure this wasn't releases in the states on LP) It did get a u.s release,can`t remeber the label but will check later for ya. Here`s a few: Listen to me-Eddie Johns(i think this was 70`s). She`s my ideal girl-Jermaine Jackson(never seen a u.s copy on 7",came out on uk,french and Belguim) Change my life-Foundations. (Uk only i believe) Mainline is sunshine-Flyers i believe this is from your part of the world
Ismaelg Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 Change my life-Foundations. (Uk only i believe) ***** At least was also released on a belgium label.
Benji Posted May 3, 2011 Author Posted May 3, 2011 Mainline is sunshine-Flyers i believe this is from your part of the world Yep, german production. Forgot all about it. Change my life-Foundations. (Uk only i believe) ***** At least was also released on a belgium label. Correct, belgian Panky. Quite rare. ----------------------------------------------------- Here are a few more: Al Matthews - Run to you Billy Jones - I'll keep holding on Midnight - Keep on walking by
Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted May 3, 2011 Posted May 3, 2011 ...My Good Friend James - Pioneers...at least I'm pretty sure there was no US release...

Jordirip Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Joey Irving - There's a Man. Only on Belgian Baltik I think. Jordi
Guest Imogen Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) I think the Jermaine Jackson track is on the Mahogany Soundtrack album from 1975. Edited May 4, 2011 by Imogen
Benji Posted May 4, 2011 Author Posted May 4, 2011 Thanks for all the replies, updated list plus a new one from me: Wess - Good time Patrick Gammon - When can I see you Tony Moore - When will I Nat Wright - When will I Eddie Johns - Listen to me Foundations - Change my life Flyers - Mainline is sunshine Al Matthews - Run to you Billy Jones - I'll keep holding on Midnight - Keep on walking by Pioneers - My good friend James Joey Irving - There's a Man Majors - It only happens when I look at you I played Nat Wright on RefoSoul, sounds a bit different to Tony Moore but might be the recordings. Anyway, that's why I listed them both.
Geeselad Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 Nina Simone - Touching and caring (not 100% sure this wasn't releases in the states on LP) It did get a u.s release,can`t remeber the label but will check later for ya. Here`s a few: Listen to me-Eddie Johns(i think this was 70`s). This is ace, picked uo a copy in Damm a while back!!!

John Benson Posted May 4, 2011 Posted May 4, 2011 (edited) I guess you can also add: Billy Cole - "Extra careful" on UK Power Exchange & Jamaican Recreational and Educational Enterprises Chants - "I've been trying" on UK Chipping Norton Clem Curtis - "Point of no return" - UK Pye Clem Curtis - "Sweet Happiness" - UK Riverdale Joe Bourne - "You are magnificent" - K-Tel Holland Main Ingredient - "Everything man" - UK & Jamaican Power Exchange and also French Eurodisc Major Lance - "Don't you know I love you" - UK Contempo Marcia Hines - "You gotta let go" - Italian Dig It and Australian Wizard Salena Jones - "Am I the same girl" - UK & Dutch CBS Viola Wills - "Day in the life of a woman" - UK Goodear (2 versions) Dwight Thompson was also on German Red Point as well as Poker which was released in Holland The Pioneers on Ice wasn't a US release Wayne, just another UK issue after the Mercury 45 ...Phew!

Sean Hampsey Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Great contribution John. You came up with most of the ones I was thinking about while reading the thread. Thinking cap on! :0) Sean
John Benson Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Yes, there's probably more yet, but I also suspect some of the things such as released on UK Contempo & Pye might not be what Benji means - maybe more like less well known artists recorded in Europe as opposed to the UK? ...I think maybe not meaning Major Lance, JJ Barnes, Jimmy James etc. - if you get my drift? It can get a bit difficult to tell one from another I reckon. Or are these also OK to mention Benji?

It can get a bit difficult to tell one from another I reckon. Or are these also OK to mention Benji? You're right I'm more interested in lesser known european artists in the list but there's no reason to limit the list to them. The only pre-condition I'd like to set is: euro only release, no vinyl release anywhere else (means Main Ingredient and Marcia Hines should be dropped from the list, sorry). will try to update the list today. another one from me: Maurice McCormick & Maggi - The Reeaall Deeaall

John Benson Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 (edited) OK Benji, that's fair enough - you better also leave Billy Cole out also due to the Jamaican release. Wasn't Salena Jones released in 1970? (I'd have to check to be certain) Maurice McCormick & Maggi - The Reeaall Deeaall I have this on a UK label, Charly I think - wasn't there also a German release of this?

I'll try to not being to anal Maurice McCormick did get a german release on Autobahn. Duane Clark .. Stop! Come Around etc This is on Spark and Barclay ... is this what you mean?

Didn't know it came out in US. But it's a european production, isn't it?

Unless somebody proves otherwise this is UK and german only. I think this may qualify but dont know of a US/lp release , very credible version of Arthur Prysock. BH Is this a.k.a Tony Moore? Or is it a different Nat Wright? Have two lovely early 60s popcorn 45s by a singer called Nat Wright. Very unlikely this is the same bloke, isn't it?

Sebastian Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Regarding the Maurice McCormick 45: Great tune. Didn't know it came out in US. But it's a european production, isn't it? Will have to check my copy at home It was recorded in the US according to Swamp Dogg (who produced it). Atomic Art was Jerry "Swamp Dogg" Williams label. When I asked Swamp Dogg about it he said that he brought the tune to MIDEM and several european labels went apeshit over the tune "15 Minutes". It even got a release here in Sweden! Obviously never took off chart-wise.
