Are the Reo's a lot harder to find, I have a nice copy of See The Big Man Cry with a nice Reo sleeve.

@ £ 150 for a £ 20 record gives me some indication is a turf un so are they all like that.

Have Spellbinders - Help me on red Reo (also original issue on Canadian Columbia) plus some others stuff. I think there were two labels, Quality & Reo that issued soul stuff. :huh:

There's quite a few things on quality.

I think it was a bit like the Canadian equivalent of UK Stateside - licensed in product from many labels, produced none of it's own music.

That's true, but, unlike UK Stateside (I believe), REO did license Canadian productions.

I can think of a handful of UK production that came out on Stateside Robb, Kenny Miller is one, The Untamed is another, the link being American producer Shel Talmy who produced both records.

"Say It" by J.J. Barnes was also on REO. Appaently the changeover occurred some time in mid-late 1966.

 

Was it Robb? "Say It" is not on any Reo listings I have ever seen I don't think  :g:

I'm sure I have seen it several times.  Of course that was many years ago.

It's not listed on Global Dog -only "Real Humdinger".  I'm in Munich now.  I'll have to wait until I return home to see if I have it myself.  Maybe I was only remembering "Real Humdinger, but I don't think so.  I'm picturing reading it off the label.  My photographic memory doesn't fail me much )although, I wouldn't stake my life on it, as it was almost exactly 50 years ago.
