Steve G Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) show off D'ah, ya know ya shouldn't have sold it Ted. Edited January 5, 2012 by Steve G
Guest smudgesmith Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) Bernie Williams was issued on Bell. Ginger has one and there is one for sale with Pete French. Bloody rare all the same. How many Billy Woods do we reckon there are? I have one and I sold one about 1985, these are not the same copies. So any takers at a guess? Edited January 5, 2012 by smudgesmith
Steve G Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 (edited) there are lots of 70s records on RCA that are extremely difficult to find as stock copies with a different b-side (which always seem to be better for some reason). Yes and I'd also say Herman Kelly on RCA is pretty hard to find and it's a cracking soul record both sides. Another 70s one Tyrone Thomas Polydor? Edited January 5, 2012 by Steve G

boba Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Yes and I'd also say Herman Kelly on RCA is pretty hard to find and it's a cracking soul record both sides. Another 70s one Tyrone Thomas Polydor? tons of polydor and rca titles, some of which i don't want to mention because they're under the radar and i still haven't found them... 1
Steve G Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 King George---i need you---Audio Arts ' this hard to track down Yep good call. A few more to consider: Peggy Scott on Atco Billy Harner on Sound Gems Ernestine Eady - Phil La Bobby Burn Gamble
Douglaschip Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 What about Corey Blake on Capitol - don't see that often
Ernie Andrews Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Tony Middleton -Paris Blues on Polydor- How many of these are their?
Guest allnightandy Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 Tony Middleton -Paris Blues on Polydor- How many of these are their? No British ones just Canadian how many ?
MrsWoodsrules Posted January 5, 2012 Posted January 5, 2012 A few major labels with quite hard to find rarities. Hy-Tones You Don't Even Know My Name on Bell. Jay Traynor Up & Over on ABC. (prob not as rare, but still quite expensive) Aid.

Guest giant Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 WALTER WILSON ---WAND another had tune to track down
Steve G Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 WALTER WILSON ---WAND another had tune to track down Yep so is J Kelly & Premiers on Wand.
Steve G Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 tons of polydor and rca titles, some of which i don't want to mention because they're under the radar and i still haven't found them... OK I'll keep quiet about some of the others then
dob Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 i've been looking for a copy of LITTLE MACK-I NEED LOVE-CHECKER for 3 years at that time i posted it in the wants section and had replies saying it shouldn't be that hard to find! anybody got one to sell?!!!
pikeys dog Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 C L Blast - Double Up - Hip 1960s Reissue of the Stax label release with slightly different title on the flip. Most other things on the label are late 60s hippy tripe. Not expensive but a very hard to find issue IMO.
Amsterdam Russ Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Without question the hardest to find on the Loma label are: * The Soul Shakers - I'm getting weaker (Loma 2047 - issue) * The G-Clefs - I can't stand it / Whirlwind (Loma 2048 - issue or promo) It's interesting to note that both of the hardest to find on the label came out one directly after the other! Also, two or three of the non-soul releases on the label are very difficult to get hold of as issue copies.
Dylan Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 I'd be interested to hear the opinions of people like Steve G on the annette snell issue on epic with "promises should never be broken" on the flip side. I did recently list it for sale and believe its a very hard issue to find so would be good to hear the views of a long time collector. Gareth commented he hadn't heard it so that tells me it must be pretty tricky.

John A Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 HY-TONES ON BELL 2 OR 3 COPIES ON EBAY within last 6 MONTHS Must be common then. Now I think about it, I think I've seen as many Ray Agees on Soultown over the same period. There we go,thats a rare one on a relatively common label.
Premium Stuff Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Cynthia & Imaginations - Why Weren't You There (I Needed You) on Blue Rock No idea why it's rare though Cheers Richard
Dylan Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 It's tough, I think because she died when the promos were out there. Did you sell it in the end? No i've still got it which is no bad thing. Will look to put out a small list later in the month and if something goes off that then this can be kept. Prehaps didn't sell because its not northern and that seems to be the main target audience on here. I have read a few comments about some unissued material that was going to go on an epic LP but i've never heard any of it.
Guest Perception Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 HY-TONES ON BELL 2 OR 3 COPIES ON EBAY within last 6 MONTHS On a label like Bell there should be hundreds of copies, something must of happend to them!!
Guest Perception Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 "Sweet Lover" - Forston and Scott - Pzazz.. Would have thought Pzazz would have made plenty of copies of each release, but this is hard to get!
boba Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 "Sweet Lover" - Forston and Scott - Pzazz.. Would have thought Pzazz would have made plenty of copies of each release, but this is hard to get! fondells on pzazz is rarer
Dave Pinch Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) fondells on pzazz is rarer but not a patch on....................agree with the sensations 45 tho bob..gotta find myself better than demandin man Edited January 6, 2012 by dave pinch
Steve G Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 (edited) On a label like Bell there should be hundreds of copies, something must of happend to them!! A number of pretty rare Bell records out there - Jim Gilstrap Run run run for example. Also I think Happy is quite a tough one, same one side as their Verve release but with a different B side on Bell. Edited January 6, 2012 by Steve G
boba Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Also I think Happy is quite a tough one, same one side as their Verve release but with a different B side on Bell. I've only ever seen happy as a promo (it has both sides though), never as a stock copy. This wikipedia page says it's just Billy Guy. Also, what's crazier is that it says it also was released as by the "Happy Cats". If that's true that's gotta be super rare. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Guy 1
boba Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 On a label like Bell there should be hundreds of copies, something must of happend to them!! I don't really know if this is the reason for the overall rarity, but john anderson told me some story once about a large warehouse worth of bell stock being destroyed.
Guest allnightandy Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Not ultra rare but you don't see many and it's on a pretty common lable !
boba Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Not ultra rare but you don't see many and it's on a pretty common lable ! there are many ultra-rare records on turbo, stang, and all platinum though.
Guest allnightandy Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 there are many ultra-rare records on turbo, stang, and all platinum though. There are also many common ones!
MrsWoodsrules Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Another record on Mercury. Jeffery Bowen I'll Get By, never seen a demo, not saying not out there, just don't see around much when browsing. Manship got issued priced in his book, don't know what a demo would make?? Aid
Guest allnightandy Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 On a label like Bell there should be hundreds of copies, something must of happend to them!! Bell is a common label so where are all the Gerri Grangers ?
MrsWoodsrules Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Another big label, Decca, don't see too many Johnny Caswells hanging around these days. Aid.
Steve G Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 there are many ultra-rare records on turbo, stang, and all platinum though. Agreed we could run a separate thread on that......
John A Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Bell is a common label so where are all the Gerri Grangers ? On ebay..there was a seller recently with a seemingly endless supply.
MrsWoodsrules Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 Sorry I know it's off topic, but don't really want to start a new thread (it's a rare record, just not a major label ), but as a matter of interest, anyone else been watching this https://www.ebay.com/itm/Mega-Rare-Northern-Soul-45-JOE-JAMA-MY-LIFE-OPTIMUM-45-JOES-BOYHOOD-HOME-/110799765495?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item19cc2e3ff7#ht_3047wt_1219 From Joe Jama's actually boyhood home. Just thought it was interesting, few other goodies in other items too. Aid.

I love the bit where he says the vinyl looks the lower end of VG over all lots of hairlines fingernail scratches but i doubt you will want to play it that often due to it's rarity !
NEV Posted January 6, 2012 Posted January 6, 2012 fondells on pzazz is rarer And on John manship website at set sale Bob... For a lot less , I wonder why ??
