a bunch of discographies (e.g. this one):

 

https://www.soulfulkindamusic.net/hilite.htm

 

list a second elites title on hi-lite:

 

108 — The Elites — Have You Got A Love / Trouble In Mind

 

This has to be a mistake right? There is a seminoles number with the same titles, and the seminoles record probably would have been 108? This is the seminoles title:

 

87568/9 - The Seminoles - Trouble In Mind / Have You Got A Love

 
I have never seen Hi-Lite 108 although I have seen the Elites on Hi-Lite 106 plenty of times. Can anyone confirm / deny the existence of this second Elites title? I don't think it exists and it seems likely accidental with the Seminoles titles being the same.

I've never seen the second Elites' record (Hi-Lite 108).  I think the listing is an error.  I've seen The Seminoles' Hi-Lite release with those 2 titles.    I think someone just transposed those titles to The Elites from The Seminoles.

interesting, I have a copy of the seminoles trouble in mind / have you got a love on hi-lite

 

but it has no release number on the label

 

bell sound stamped styrene with ztsc 87568 1ka etched in run out, with a ztsp82605 with a line through it

 

it has ztsc87568 printed on the label, but no release number printed on the label

 

I just checked my tommy frontera on hi-lite  and it has the release number right under his name 

 

seminoles on hi-lite is a great collectors 45, not an easy find

Yes, I have two Seminoles' releases on Hi-Lite with no catalogue #, and three Tommy Fronteras with none, in addition to their catalogue-numbered releases.  Based on the Columbia Midwest pressing plant 84000 to 87000 numbers, it seems that Hi-Lite started using catalogue numbers in late 1963, after having none in 1962 and early 1963.

thanks everyone. i was pretty sure the elites 108 was an error, if anyone can produce evidence of a copy feel free to post.
