** Just Brothers - She Broke His Heart ** Sold **

[Mal C]

Hi all, for sale:

 

Just Brothers - She Broke His Heart / Things Will be Better/ EMPIRE  VG+ £40 ** SOLD **

Fabulous double header, one side a deep soul classic, tuther is a very nice mid-tempo track. 'SBYH' came out on Garrison and is listed as coming out on Wand with 'Carlena' as the flip, and 'TWGB' came out originally on Lupine, dog rare 45 that...

 

Condition wise Ive marked this as VG+, has ring wear, see the scans, and general wear, but plays fine to my ears, some faint noise, a tiny click for the first 30 seconds on 'SBHH' but its very acceptable, and if I didn't have two copies, I'd be keeping this, a used but certainly not totally abused 45...

 

Post: 1st Class Signed for (insured up to £50) within the UK - £2.50, if your further a field, say where and I'll quote you.

 

Kind regards,

 

Malcolm

I know there are a couple that were supposed to have been released on Wand, or were due to be released, but didn't  for one reason or another, some did but in very small quantity, the Ivories comes to mind as an example,  I think Dave Flynn covered this in some of his sleeve notes back in the 8ts/9ts, and Ive read it elsewhere since. Wasn't 'Carena' one that was supposed to have had a release on Wand, it got a release/cat number, but nobody has ever seen it, something like that?

 

Wand 1144 - Carlena / She Broke His Heart - 1966    

 

But personally, no I have NEVER seen an Issue on Wand, only read about it, but that doesn't mean it does not exist does it.. 'Garrison' Scan shows Flomar Music, so anything is possible. still the record has sold, and the mystery of the WAND release lives on...

One of the more interesting deals that Wand seems to have made was with the Garrison label. Several Garrison releases seem to have a corresponding entry on the Wand discography, but I've never seen any of the actual Wand releases for any of these titles. Earl Harrison's "Humphrey Stomp" is probably the most common Garrison release, but where are all the Wand copies that were supposed to have been pressed? Could it be that after "Humphrey Stomp" started selling well on the initial label, the label owners decided not to follow through on the Wand deal, thinking they would make more money if they did it all themselves? Are Wand copies of Garrison's brilliant Detroit productions of the Honey Bees and the Just Brothers languishing in a warehouse somewhere? Another Wand release brought in from another local label also seems nearly impossible to locate, but it is known to exist, unlike the Garrison stuff. The Ivories "Please stay" came out on a tiny Chicago label called Despenza and is hard enough to find on that label, let alone on Wand. Seems strange that Wand would only try for that one release from that local label, however, since there were other local Chicago groups who recorded for Dispo and Despenza who might have benefited from a Wand distribution deal.

From around the same time as the ill-fated Garrison deal, Wand seems to have jumped on the Motown bandwagon and released several Detroit-produced records. They signed a deal with Herman Griffin who wrote or produced several tracks, including Chuck Jackson's only Detroit-related Wand single "Good things come to those who wait" - in my opinion one of Chuck's best releases on the label. Diane Lewis' pair of singles also came from this Herman Griffin connection.

 

so there you have it...

Just as a point of interest Fred Bridges of the Brothers of Soul actually wrote this not Freddie Pride as on the label.  When I showed him my copy when he was over a couple of years ago he snatched it off me and crossed out the name on the record and then wrote on the card cover - Fred Bridges BOS - 'I wrote She broke his heart'   Fred!!

 

Fantastic midtempo - by the way.
