The Yank Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 3 hours ago, Robbk said: I'd be curious to hear from The Yank if he remembers seeing stockers of the Dee Dee Barnes in Chicagoland record shops around the time it was out. I don't remember seeing Dee Dee Barnes stock copies or hearing it on the radio. In fact, I don't remember ever seeing promos or stocks of this around the Chicago area.

But, if I saw it in a thrift shop, it could have been brought there by someone who moved there from The East Coast. I think it got a few test airplays on KGFJ in L.A. But it certainly didn't get regular rotation play, or chart there. It definitely had a store stocker Monarch press run in L.A. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Mot Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 (edited) I'm not sure about the rarest issue, but you don't see many of these: Susan Rewis - They Say You Found A New Baby - Columbia (red issue) Most I've seen are white demo's, don't recall seeing another issue but they must exist.

Amsterdam Russ Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 A rare issue on Loma - in fact, without a doubt the hardest on the label. Easily obtained as an unwanted sound for a few quid as a yellow issue and as a white demo, but this one - the first under the new Warner/Seven Arts branding on the cusp of 1968 - is exceptionally elusive. The poor quality scan below is one I grabbed from somewhere online back in 2010. I've not seen another since. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I've seen many more of the Dee dee Barnes than the Cindy Gibson in those two regions where I resided. I only made a few record-buying trips to The East Coast, and never looked for records in The South(Southeast), So, I can't speak for those latter two regions. But, I was able to find and buy a copy of both records. I've never seen a WDJ of the Cindy Gibson, however. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I never saw any from all the Verve titles on Bradford market and Popsike only has promos. I found mine at Ray Avery's Records bargain-priced 45 shelves in Glendale a few months after it was released. It was a DJ copy, among about a couple hundred mint MGM/Verve/and other MGM-distributed labels. I don't remember ever seeing a stock copy of it, but I could have seen a few. That isn't a record that I'd have paid attention to whether or not it was a DJ or stocker. But, I DO remember seeing a lot of DJ issues of it. I never bothered to buy both stockers and DJ issues of Verve mid sixties releases, as I would have done for rare Detroit and Chicago Soul records. I don't remember either side being played on KGFJ in L.A. or WVON in Chicago. Edited January 10, 2022 by Robbk 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Well spotted and thanks for checking. However, I think Kev would be the first to admit that the info available to him over twenty years ago was a lot more limited than today. Also he wasn't writing a price guide book so he wouldn't need to research the price for every record . As there are no issues listed on popsike and no one on here has seen a copy I'm still doubtful that the stock ever reached distributors or shops.
