Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Return of an infamous old label, quite interesting that they chose this and gave it a number which would fit in with the original sequence, except that the A side wasn't discovered until four years after that label stopped putting records out.. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Paul-Anka-We-Get-There-Northern-Soul-Vinyl-45-/110806306032?pt=UK_Records&hash=item19cc920cf0#ht_712wt_1398
Guest MrC Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Again... at work and can't follow ebay links! What is it?
Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 Again... at work and can't follow ebay links! What is it? Did you ever see Carl Douglas on the orange Out Of The Past? IT's that label, but it's When We Get There by Paul Anka. Given the number OOTP 18.
SHEFFSOUL Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Did you ever see Carl Douglas on the orange Out Of The Past? IT's that label, but it's When We Get There by Paul Anka. Given the number OOTP 18. ..nope ..never seen it..deffo a curio..

Simsy Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Did you ever see Carl Douglas on the orange Out Of The Past? Yes, got a copy of that somewhere.
sir cumference Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Well,at least he says it`s a pressing.Not that that makes it any better.
Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 Well,at least he says it`s a pressing.Not that that makes it any better. No, I was just pointing out the strange choice of label really.
Guest JIM BARRY Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 were these knocked out by the international soul club....the only one i bought was rat race...even though it was common on verve
Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 Thats right, out of The Torch via International Soul Club, mastered by a top US producer in Chicago and overseen by a famous US soul recording star - sounds unbelievable doesn't it, but the mastering for these was done at Brunswick Records in the States 1
Guest Dave Turner Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Out of interest an old thread on OOTP
Guest JIM BARRY Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 they used to be selotaped in the shop window at hime and addison in manchester....overseen by a MAJOR soul star with connections to the torch by any chance???

Guest allnightandy Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Those are 100% legal issues Andy from the people who were behind the JoeBoy label in the 90's. really ! well i am suprised, Those labels being so like the originals in my opinion are to deceive the less informed why couldn't they put them on a label like Grapevine or stardust or invent one of their own ?
Mick Sway Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Is When we get there really popular enough to warrant a pressing? I picked up a black UK copy just about 10 years ago for a tenner, cause nobody was interested in the blue eyed soul. For the record: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILw9_VXCtxE By the way anyone after Carl Douglas on OOTP?

Steve L Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Is When we get there really popular enough to warrant a pressing? The orange UK RCA issue fetches around £30 on ebay. Maybe the owner of the original OOTP label could take legal action? He's still knocking about somewhere I think
Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 The orange UK RCA issue fetches around £30 on ebay. Maybe the owner of the original OOTP label could take legal action? He's still knocking about somewhere I think Thats a ridiculous price, I sell it for £6 on UK orange RCA, the black UK RCA is very rare, £50+, UK demo £100, people paying big money for USA copies are crazy in my opinion, £30 demo £60 issue absolute maximum. Doubt if the OOTP guy can do anything seeing as he bootlegged 50 titles and was prosecuted for it!

Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 Misplaced your sense of humour today Pete? No, why?
Steve L Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 No, why? Because most people reading this will know that the OOTP label was a bootleg operation. Now the bootleg OOTP label has been bootlegged by other bootleggers, are you with me so far? My comment about them taking legal action was what is known as irony or an attempt at a joke (delete as appropriate) Hence my "misplaced sense of humour" question. On a serious note I'll have a copy of the UK issue off you for £6 (the one with I Cant help Loving You on other side)

Guest Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 don't suppose theres a 3rd copy just sat waiting to be mailed for me to flog on ebay for a profit is there?
Billywhizz Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 see if you have got 2, if you have il have 1 also up for a demo please sir billy
Steve L Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 don't suppose theres a 3rd copy just sat waiting to be mailed for me to flog on ebay for a profit is there? There really ought to be a dislike button! I'll be keeping my copy BTW
Pete S Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 Can't find one in here. Think I"ve got a no centre copy though, you can have it for nothing if I can find it.
Guest Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Who on earth is doing these there just seems to be so many nowadays.
Gene-r Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 In terms of pressing plant, what's the difference between the orange / green OOTP label, and the plain white ones pressed on styrene? My memory is that the white styrene OOTP series were really poor sound quality; whilst loud, they were really tinny.

Back in those early days the number of people who come from Letchworth into rare soul was 2, 3 if we include Mick and I was last as both Mick & Chris Gallard had been there from the start, This bootleg means absolutely F all to myself, it's not in the same mould as Sharron Soul Ben Aiken Debbie Dean Invitations Jerry Williams and all the rest, along with all the other muck the seller has got with his feedback of 19 if I was aware who he was I would report him. he ain't got nothing to do with our music and he ain't a Jeff King Simon S or Chris B, who lets not forget owned the TORCH, this release is a wast of plastic and like all the other bootlegs should be not allowed in any event, as that makes the promoter just as guilty, However I bet people on this site still by this s**t! LETS KEEP THE SOUL SCENE REAL, AND BUY THE PROPER STUFF DAVE 1
Mick Holdsworth Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 That orange label doesn't look like a scan - more like artwork for the label. Was ISC 018 a missing number in the original series?
Wiggyflat Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 I found about 400 OOTP white label records in a junkshop in London....still got them in a bin bag in the loft ..all titles although there were more Tracks to your mind than any others.
SHEFFSOUL Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 ..what about the Detriot land apples? listed but ive never seen one..
Wiganer1 Posted January 13, 2012 Posted January 13, 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILw9_VXCtxE ========== wow 1st ever saw this....still a great track 1
