JD Bryant's A side is one of my couple favourite Shrine cuts. It's a shame it's not included. Why was it left out? Not available for remastering? - or the only available copy was too beat up? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Why was it left out? Not available for remastering? - or the only available copy was too beat up? I'd seriously doubt that as it's not the hardest one to come by. Although not the commonest one either. And I've seen few over the years in almost Mint condition. But it's a 'popular' one so indeed it maybe only missed selection...

If not there is a good few in this country who would make one available to take a recording from.

They received them from the pressing plant a few weeks ago so I assume they were able to get them out early because of this. Only a week early anyway. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Popular Post Andy Rix Posted May 26 Popular Post Share Posted May 26 (edited) The decision was made early in the planning stage to only use tracks that had not previously been released in the UK on 7" vinyl. So J.D. Bryant, as an example, had previously been reissued both on Soul City and the Goldmine Shrine series Hope that helps explains the rationale Andy Edited May 26 by Andy Rix Typo 7 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

In the tapes from Eddie, is there unknown Shrine artist covering " I wanna hold your hand" or have I imagined that? 2. I don't know if you remember this, but did the studio tapes of these early takes and unreleased ever come to light? shrine ur .mp3 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Andy Rix Posted May 26 Share Posted May 26 Hi Simon The version of "I want to hold your hand" is the Cautions ..

Shrine release not the sort of thing that could be played out and may serve to increase the value of my Jet Set copy. Happy days. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I don't know if you remember this, but did the studio tapes of these early takes and unreleased ever come to light? shrine ur .mp3 Thanks for the snippets! I really like the idea of the Doo Wop song. Too bad they hit those flat notes. The base parts, however, are super. It sounds like straight out of New York in late 1956 or early '57. Takes me back to my early teens. Which Shrine group sang that one? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 I've had mine for over a week, maybe two but I'm moving house and everything is in storage. I opened it today and the look and feel is just as you would expect, QUALITY! Decks are out of storage and will be set up tomorrow, these will be on the decks. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Devlam Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 (edited) Agree, the packaging and the booklet, everything, looks lovely, but, 4 of my records have dish warp - they play but they’re going back. Edited May 28 by Devlam Typo Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
