John Reed Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Don Bryant - Can I Change My Mind - Precious Soul LP, Hi or UK London. A very credible cover.
Benji Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Bobby Patterson - I get my groove from you - was released on a Paula 7 Jon Lucien - Would you believe - RCA "Rashida was released on a very rare Rca 7 Promo for the Rachida Album Thanks, wasn't sure about Bobby. Certainly didn't know about Jon Lucien 7". Expensive?

Davenpete Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 I know of an ex-DJ (who has left scene 15 years ago) cut down an LP to 7" format so it would fit in his record box. Song in questions was last one on side 1 There were LOTS of Stronger than Me's about like that. Dx
Mike Lofthouse Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Don Bryant - Can I Change My Mind - Precious Soul LP, Hi or UK London. A very credible cover. there is also a very credible LP only version by Walter 'Wolfman' Washington - Michael Charlton has been known to spin it out from time to time ...oh and of course album only for Loleatta Holloway's version too

Andreas B Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 getting lots of plays again it seems (and a lot of mention on here) is the LP only track "Sadie Sadie" from the Ripple Blast Singers LP "Funny Girl Ala Soul". picked it up on a dig first time at a shop I'd never been to here in Copenhagen, posted it here on trade as there were other tracks I was after, but it grew on me so much that its become a major staple of my sets. absolutely stellar spin, surprising nobody has cut a 45 boot of it. I was just back in the states and catching my flight from San Francisco to New York I stupidly left my bag of LPs on the roof of my friend's car when she dropped me off in a rush. she got onto the freeway and was going 60+mph when someone honked at her and pointed to the roof all my LPs in tact, saved probably by the weight of my 45 adaptors in the same bag! absolutely devastating to realize I was without them at first though. now waiting to get it shipped back so it can reclaim its rightful seat in my set. 1
Kris Holmes Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) there is also a very credible LP only version by Walter 'Wolfman' Washington yeah, i liked this but could never quite get with the 80s production values on the LP & then this was compounded when I saw him do it live in NO & it absolutely destroyed the LP version, could never listen to it again & threw the LP in the bin the bloody 1980s & their drum/horn/keys sounds have a lot to answer for IMO. and in a round about twist, the Tyrone Davis LP "Can I Change My Mind" has a grip of excellent LP only versions of things on it Edited September 17, 2012 by Kris Holmes
Roger Williams Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Some of which I'm hoping to hear you play at 'So Soulful 70's' in March 2013 Ha haaa, you don't waste much time do you!!

Benji Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Marvin Holmes - You better keep her (Brown Door) Unless it's a different mix this one made it on 7" didn't it? Was even booted I think
Jordirip Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Thanks, wasn't sure about Bobby. Certainly didn't know about Jon Lucien 7". Expensive? The Jon Lucien is an EP, so the grooves are about as tight and narrow as on the LP, so it won't play quite as nice and loud as a normal 45.
Mister Fish Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) Unless it's a different mix this one made it on 7" didn't it? Was even booted I think Completely different mix. I love this tune on a 45 but the Lp version is immense. Here it is on one of my mixes; Track 14 https://www.mixcloud....shraresoulmix2/ Edited September 18, 2012 by Mister Fish 1

John Reed Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 (edited) So Glad You Came Along and Now You're Gone from Smoke's J-Bridge LP These would be my choices for an LP only set; Voices Of East Harlem - Take a stand (Just Sunshine) The two VOEH Just Sunshine LP's are chocked with great LP only Dancers and steppers.

John Reed Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Yes, and I'd love one on a 7'' I'm very intrigued as to this. To my knowledge this single isn't in any US Stax discography's I know of, as there aren't any missing numbers. So it must be a UK or foreign released single. Did Stax ever release anything in Guatemala?

Guest Andy Kempster Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 When I dj'd regularly I always took a bunch of LPs with me. Either lp-only tracks, or album tracks that were much much cheaper than the 45 releases, e.g. Silhouettes on Goodway. If I find the time I'll knock a list together of what I played over the years. what do people feel about tracks getting played off lp's when the same track is available on a 45 but at a much higher price, does anyone care?

Popular Post Roger Williams Posted September 21, 2012 Popular Post Posted September 21, 2012 Yes Roger, both tracks you picked out are as good as anything they put out on 45, its the album ignorance thing isn't it, people buy an album for 1 track maybe and ignore the rest, then get found out when someone plays something else brilliant from it Kev As a lifelong LP collector I've been guilty of that countless times, only concentrating on one or maybe a couple of tracks and not investigating all the other cuts properly, but I think that's a good thing because I've approached DJ's at places like Great Yarmouth Soul Essence to ask about a track being played only to find I've had the LP for years! But as I say, that's no bad thing because a) it means I've discovered a quality new tune and b) it hasn't cost me anything!! The best one I ever had in this scenario was a track called 'Hey Big Brother' which I had on a tape that somebody had given me in the 90s, just an absolutely wonderful midtempo 70s tune, but the tape had no track listing and I searched high and low for years trying to find it, buying LPs 'blind' because they had song titles 'Brother' or 'Big Brother' but I had no joy. Then one day I was off work and pulled out a load of LPs just to track and put on the Opus 7 LP from 1979 on Source which I'd bought 12 months earlier at Yarmouth for the stepper 'I Love You' and another track called 'The Way You Move Me' and as I looked at the track listing saw the track 'Hey Big Brother' and I thought no f*cking WAY!!! So on it went, the first bars kicked in and my bloody jaw hit the floor, what a dolt, had my biggest want in the collection for a year without knowing it!! I think that day was the one and only time I've done an actual cartwheel in my living room. Roger 6

Pat Bleasdale Posted September 21, 2012 Posted September 21, 2012 (edited) Billy Hawks was actually pressed on 45, french issue on stateside with ps . Very scarce but not impossible to find, a few djs on the mod scene do own copies. Little Ann was pressed on 45 on Kent select. I was outbid on the Billy Hawks 45 a while ago...would have liked it for the cover alone. Edited September 21, 2012 by pat bleasdale
