Northern Soul Uk Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Hi, I have seen 2 different colour 'Spectrum' labels for the Billy Sha Rae track I'm gone. One deep red, and one blue. What is the difference? is one a boot or were there 2 colours released? Thank you

Guest oldsoulgit Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 I have it on French vogue, any idea what it goes for ? Cheers Jim.
Kegsy Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Isn't there also one on Green Spectrum or am I suffering from my usual tricks playing memory.
Prophonics 2029 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Isn't the green one a different record... do It.? Same again Red/crimson issue. Edited May 9, 2015 by Prophonics 2029
Theothertosspot Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) I'm Gone and Do It both came out on the Mauve Spectrum label, Do It also came out on UK Action and I think French Vogue. Think the Blue (boot/reissue) came out around 78, and also think the Billy Sha-Rae version of I'm Gone was played before Eddie Parker as the boot appeared before RS started playing Eddie Parker. Think Billy Sha-Rae was first played at Cleethorpes and then Wigan championed Eddie Parker. Wasn't Billy Sha-Rae a pseudonym for Jack Ashford (thought I read that somewhere about 30 years ago) Regards Edited May 9, 2015 by theothertosspot
Theothertosspot Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 (edited) Which one? Could you highlight "the man" please as I am not sure which one you are referring to. R E Gards Edited May 9, 2015 by theothertosspot
Alan Bonthrone1 Posted May 9, 2015 Posted May 9, 2015 Could be the one in the middle or if not it could be one of the others, or not.Maybe ? 1
Windlesoul Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Off topic song title wise but I do have a copy of 'Do It' on belgian Arsa (with pic sleeve). He was born William Daniel Wilson from Uniontown near Pittsburgh. Lead member of Soul Congress (as in Alans pic above) who were hired as sessionists. 1
Ibiza Steve Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 I´ve got the Arsa copy and was told that's the song in its rarest issue format, is it true ? Love the label name.
Windlesoul Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 (edited) Don't honestly know. I just picked up "Do It" on Arsa as part of the pic sleeve 45 book I was working on. Only cost me £20-30 I think. Dont know if I'm Gone ever came out on the label though I think it may have done Edited May 10, 2015 by Windlesoul
Chalky Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 Which one? Could you highlight "the man" please as I am not sure which one you are referring to. R E Gards I would imagine as he is the lead artist he is the prominent one in the middle 2
Guest son of stan Posted May 10, 2015 Posted May 10, 2015 I would imagine as he is the lead artist he is the prominent one in the middle He's not on that pic...He went.
Windlesoul Posted May 11, 2015 Posted May 11, 2015 (edited) My Arsa 45 - anyone know if his other stuff is on the same label? Edited May 11, 2015 by Windlesoul
