Dave Rimmer Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 I'm afraid you are getting your Magnetics mixed up. The group who recorded on Allrite are a Detroit group, possibly the same group as the group who recorded on Bonnie. The group who recorded on Ra-Sel are from Philadelphia, thus the Allrite single definitely wasn't also issued on Ra-Sel because it was a different group. And the group who recorded on JV are from Chicago, and another group entirely frrom the two already mentioned. Here's all the info I've managed to gather on 'The Magnetics' The Magnetics (From Philadelphia) Ra-Sel R7-104 - I Have A Girl / Love And Devotion - 1967 The Philadelphia Magnetics have as far as I know only the one release, although other releases on the Ra Sel label exist. John Anderson at Soul Bowl is rumoured to have several unreleased acetates by the group. The Magnetics (From Detroit) Bonnie 107374 - Lady In Green / Heart You're Made Of Stone - 196? The Detroit Magnetics are possibly the same group that recorded on Allrite (Because of the Detroit association of the label). However, according to Dennis Coffey (Who played on both group's sessions) are NOT The Volumes recording under a different name as was once thought. The Magnetics (No idea where from although I would suspect Detroit, so it might even be the same group) Allrite 620 - Where Are You / The Train - 1962 The Magnetics (From Detroit) Hitsville Acetate - Father Time Histville Acetate - Please Don't Go Away The second Detroit Magnetics are definitely a white sounding girl group, which according to Andy Rix, are not particularly good, which would account for the tracks never gaining an actual release. The Magnetics (From Chicago) Sable 102 - When I'm With My Baby / Count The Days - 196? J-V 2501 - Oh Love / Wasting Time - 1969 The Chicago Magnetics releases have Lee McKinney as the lead singer, so are all the same group. Lee McKinney & The Magnetics (Same group from Chicago) Sable 104 - I'll Keep Holding On / ? - 196? The Magnetics (No idea where from, but definitely a different group) Sound Trap 30391 - Let Me Comfort You / Good By My Love - ? The group on Sound Trap are a complete mystery to me. Help anyone ?
Guest melandthensome Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 (edited) Cheers Dave as far as I know they are the same group as 'lady in green' I was gonna post the Ra-sel copy up but couldnt find it.....anyway you confirmed what I was gonna say in so many words Edited January 25, 2007 by melandthensome
Guest melandthensome Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 All the Magnetics sounds Ive heard anyway be it from wherever have been okeh and all nice sounds in my opinion

Dave Rimmer Posted January 25, 2007 Posted January 25, 2007 (edited) Some other label scans. I Hasten to add, that whilst I'd love to own the big three, 'I Have a Girl' is the only one I do own out of all the Magnetics singles, so in answer to your question I have no idea what the Uptites is like.

Guest Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 A mate of mine posted this on SDF can anyone please tell me anything about it To answer your original question. this 45 from 1962 on Allrite is a doo-woppy soul ballad. I've had it a few times and was so disappointed, not much interest for Northern Soul fans. Value in MINT £40-ish I used to list it for the flipside "The Train" which is more uptempo but still not for the Northern Soul fan, pretty awful really. Magnetics on J-V I'll pay £75 each for Mint copies.. but they must be Mint or near Mint. Send any on if you got them, cheque by return. Question for Ted, Are your song sheets the originals?? Because I have copies of the song sheets of the same titles mentioned also. John
