Seano Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Having thought this was great when I saw it referenced on another thread here on Soul Source, I was hoping to hear of a 7" release. I'd commented on the official video thread on YouTube and having just looked in noticed I'd had a reply from David Pinches to say it had now come out a few days ago. Gutted to discover that I can't find it in stock anywhere - anyone got any knowledge of where I can try? Meanwhile, just because it's so good, here's the link again to the tune:
Billy Jo Jim Bob Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 I think it is a fairly limited release and as its been all over social media and advertised by dealers, there is probably little chance of getting one immediately. However some will come to the market in the short term I'm sure, like most of the other limited releases do.
Amsterdam Russ Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Already being resold at the £70-80 mark by those who picked up multiple copies...
Scootboy Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 This release is going to be huge, the song is simply one of the best soul songs ever made

Hopefully another run will be done and back in stock as plenty had copies to sell initially. Edited January 2, 2019 by chalky

Scootboy Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Check his FB page,he says that he can help if anyone needs a copy 1
Guest Shufflin Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 the 45 is a re-issue, it was originally released on LP - yes I went there OVO paying £50 to scalpers for a vinyl I already own on its it's first issue is a bit silly
Scootboy Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 If the release is really limited, I believe that is only a matter of time to hit triple figures, I'm not saying that it is fair but this is reality, I only buy 7" records so I was happy with this release

We never worried about ovo crap until recently. Who is gonna tell Ernest Ernie we can’t play their 45 because it is a reissue? I have never seperated Lp releases and 45 release, foreign and local releases like some. Lp, 45, download, all original formats. The flip of the 45 isn’t on the Lp and so on.....just the same as 7” and Lp releases from previous years. They have an Lp out later this year, no doubt this will be on it.

Guest Shufflin Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Expansion records should be applauded for releasing this first on vinyl

Well they themselves seem to be promoting the fact that a 45 is available in some US shops so I’m with Chalky.
Seano Posted January 3, 2019 Author Posted January 3, 2019 Hadn't meant for this to shift towards a debate around OVO. Really appreciate all the tips around trying to get hold of it. Like Scootboy, I prefer to get hold of 45s, and as this is a legitimate release direct from the band / label then I don't have a problem with that. The band and their distributors will get their take and not a bootlegger; that, to me, is the crucial difference we ought to be concerned with. I've tried the US links posted on Ernest Ernie & the Sincerities Facebook page but no joy at Rough Trade NYC, nor Northern Lights and A1 Records. Dusty Groove had just sold out, so I've contacted the band directly. 3
Scootboy Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 Did the American brothers ( Rough Trade NYC, Northern Lights, A1 Records) reply to you or are you still waiting for an answer?
Lfcjunkie Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I received a message off Ernie himself this morning Martin he said the 7 is 'very limited and he was lucky to get a copy for himself after a terrible year I'm glad to hear about the interest regarding the 45'.... Dave L 1

I only checked on their links given via EE&S Facebook posting. Rough Trade had nothing via a search, Northern Lights just had a phone number (website photos look good and I like the name!) which I haven't followed up, and A1 took me to Instagram and then an unavailable website. 1
Philb Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I ordered one from Dusty Groove at around 8:00 this morning, they never said sold out but when I checked just now there’s no picture of the 45. I’ll wait till I get a definite confirmation but the payment went through. Let’s see!!

Cheers, Mark R Agreed Mark. I'm very attached to my 45s, so was hoping this would make it to vinyl. But as an original download I'd have no problem hearing this played out as a digital file. I presume the only reason it's made it to a single release is because of feedback from downloads and being included on the Expansion compilation. 2

Cheers, Mark R Pathetic isn’t it Mark. Those like you who paid for a download and played it out and got a response deserve the plaudits. I played it on the radio off a memory stick over Christmas 2

Most of you know that I DO understand the vinyl preference, it's mine too, but I just find it laughable that folk are only interested (in something they think is a stunning piece of music BTW) when it arrives on vinyl. It's laughable and very much the downside of that part of the UK soul scene. Anyway, here's a bit of a potted history and some credit where it's due as I understand it, please correct me if you know better: - first brought to many people's attention via Mark Merry's "Soul Sermon" show on Starpoint Radio back in the summer of 2018 - suggested for inclusion on the Expansion yearly (2018) compilation by Roger Williams - released on a 45 on It's Soul Time records by top man Andy Lothian, an ex-pat residing Stateside. So there you go, just enjoy the music! Cheers, Mark R Edited January 3, 2019 by Mark R 6

I know Mr Curtis opened his set with it and the two guys right at the end played it as well but I'm sure I heard it 3 times which, I know may by some be classed as bad form as in Dj's not listening to fellow Dj's sets and then repeating certain tracks but no complaints here .

Juno claim it's 'forthcoming on the 11th' and you can set a release alert with them, if they've got a batch arriving from the US.

Scootboy Posted January 3, 2019 Posted January 3, 2019 I remember reading buy Do Something at Juno Records. In stock now for same day shipping,let's hope that I'm wrong

Scootboy Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) Juno has changed the status to out of stock. I got a message that it was released today, I opened the link,I tried to add it in my cart...and of course it was sold out,I took a screenshot, there is a great possibility that they stocked only one copy, discogs has the first £75 one for sale today,yesterday,five £50 were sold. I had already ordered a copy before this thread started,it posted today because the seller was on holidays,I'll probably have it next week, Edited January 4, 2019 by Scootboy dyslexia
Seano Posted January 4, 2019 Author Posted January 4, 2019 I got the Juno alert too, sadly it got to my email at 4.07, but by the time I'd got home just now and checked email it was too late. I tried the link and phoned through - the guy told me they'd sold all 20 pretty much straight away. Would have been nice for the 'Feel Good Friday' feeling, but hopefully others of you were more lucky / quicker off the mark. 1
Scootboy Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 I can't understand why the record company decided to go for a limited edition, they should better reconsider and reissue This is what I wrote back in October 1
Chalky Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 You would think these artists would like to make a bit of money and meet demand by pressing enough copies
