Jerry Hipkiss Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Here's a head-scratcher for ya - what NS goodies can you never get on a US demo? For starters - Nolan Porters' "Oh Baby", "B" side of "Singer Man" which in itself was promo'd as a double-sided ABC white demo. Any takers? Hippo.

Jerry Hipkiss Posted April 25, 2006 Author Posted April 25, 2006 Kiss my love goodbye... Trick me treat me... Did US Atlantic have a spell of not doing specific demo's then Pete? I know that happened in the UK...
Pete S Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Did US Atlantic have a spell of not doing specific demo's then Pete? I know that happened in the UK... No mate I think they put the same track on both sides
Guest Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 No mate I think they put the same track on both sides Doesnt that mean,there are demo`s of the Bsides on there own?,like some onesided UK demos have the other side on another onesided demo?
Gene-r Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Doesnt that mean,there are demo`s of the Bsides on there own?,like some onesided UK demos have the other side on another onesided demo? Decca/RCA/London etc, did this as normal practice with their demos from 1955 - 1960. The reason for this was so that a radio DJ could play the B-side immediately after the A-side during one of their shows.

RCA didn't put any demos out in the early 60's.

I'd imagine loads of small label stuff wasn't demo'd - 300 runs etc.
Guest HiTtHeBoNgO Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 singing principle on uk action demo is thank you baby both sides ... best side womens lib omitted or is that just my copy ?
Steve G Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 singing principle on uk action demo is thank you baby both sides ... best side womens lib omitted or is that just my copy ? If we're onto UK anyone seen the Spinners "It's a shame" on demo?
Guest HiTtHeBoNgO Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 motown spinners was never issued as a demo ...

Never even seen an import of it before. Now I've seen both in one. Actually, I meant a UK Demo of the Instrumental. Get out of that one
Paul McKay Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 singing principle on uk action demo is thank you baby both sides ... best side womens lib omitted or is that just my copy ? No all demos are the same both sides.

Paul McKay Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Endless confusion by Tom Green on UK Action 4621
Pete S Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Marv Johnson - why do you want to let me go - tamla motown tmg 525. There are no red and white demos of this.
paultp Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Sons of Robin Stone - Got To Get You Back - ATCO My demo arrived the other day with Love Is Just Around The Corner on both sides, no wonder it was 5 dollars :angry: In a nice ABC company sleeve though Someone has mentioned the Ronnie McNeir on Tortoise which I also have a demo of :angry:
Simon T Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Sons of Robin Stone - Got To Get You Back - ATCO Someone has mentioned the Ronnie McNeir on Tortoise which I also have a demo of :angry: Got it now, it's called "Good side of your love"
Guest Martin Coleman Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 City Lights I've a a demo of but it's not white, it's like the issue but has the same track both sides. RCA didn't put any demos out in the early 60's. You mean you have a red demo with "City Lights" both sides? That's cool. I found the same Jerry Naylor, on red Tower with the correct issue number, last year, but mine has the "wrong" track both sides. Grrrr.
paultp Posted April 25, 2006 Posted April 25, 2006 Got it now, it's called "Good side of your love" As opposed to the demo which is a different kind
