Guest Brian Ellis Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 (edited) Just been talking to Steve Conner about which of the two labels is the original (first) issue of Willie Pickett's 'On the stage of life'. I have it on Eastern; the other label is SoulPot. Just listened to the sound clip on SS and it seems to be slightly different to my Eastern version (just slightly faster and a bit 'lighter' in terms of the vocals). I'm guessing that this is the SoulPot version; perhaps whoever posted it could confirm this? Is anyone able to cast any light on which of the two is the first issue please?

Chris Anderton Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Is anyone able to cast any light on which of the two is the first issue please? Brian ...... HI Brian, I always believed Soulpot to be the first version because on my Eastern copy it says "A soulpot production" or something like that... I`m not sure if there is a difference in the cut...every version I`ve heard always sounds the same to me. Chris

If you've got time, play your Eastern and then check the SS clip and see if you come to the same conclusion as me. Or could be it's just my turntable that's a bit slower? Brian

Brian Hi Guys The two are definiely different---have had both versions -- sold the Eastrern one still got the Soul Pot one-- Tim Brown describes the Soul Pot version as N orthern and Eastern as 70's-- not really sure theres that much difference- John P
