Hasn't Bobby Kline been re-issued on a EP sort of thing?

Has been issued on an EP on 'Vintage Soul' records - don't know how legit it is.

Includes:

Bobby Kline - 'Say something nice to me'

Kenny Sheppard - 'What difference does it make'

Reggie Alexander - 'It's better'

Johnny Mae Matthews - 'I have no choice'.

Haven't seen one of these around for many a year - does anyone have an idea of worth?

HTH

Guest Brian Ellis

My friend's got one, I'll convince him to sell....

Make sure you have a listen to all the tracks before parting with any cash as my Bobby Kline jumps at one point (I think a number of them suffer with this).
