Guest Dan Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 cheating a bit but the above is the best track ever released on uk only imo why it was never actually released is more of a mystery than the building of the pyramids afaic.

Steve Edgar Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) Oi Mr Intergrity stop putting things up that I'm about to put in 'manifesto' ! Nice avatar btw ! Soz Simon! It's a nice cut tho eh? Wonder if Contempo done it by design, or accident! (or do ya mean Maxine? ) steve Edited April 6, 2007 by Soul-Integrity
Guest mel brat Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 (edited) Baby Washington - "Get A Hold Of Yourself" c/w "Hurt So Bad" (United Artists) Album only in the US I think. I picked up this fabulous dancer really cheaply C.1973 and it's remained one of my UK faves ever since. Why it never got more attention I'll never know... it's not even listed in most of the Discographies on her that I've read! Yes, the flip is her slow and soulful version of the Little Anthony & The Imperials classic. Edited April 6, 2007 by mel brat
Guest Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 Soz Simon! It's a nice cut tho eh? Wonder if Contempo done it by design, or accident! (or do ya mean Maxine? ) steve LOL only joking..actually I was talking about Deon for the next issue ! Maxine is shortlisted but as I don't actually have it, so far it hasn't gone in. Mel, the reason Baby doesn't appear in her discographies is that the compilers have a complete block on UK 45's unless they're percieved to be rare....Timi Yuro and Martha Reeves spring to mind. I started the 'manifesto' column on UK only single releases a few years back (although I cut myself a bit of slack, including 12" and CD singles too and one or two have turned out to have obscure US 7's as well..Donald Height "Rags to Riches to Rags" springs to mind) after doing a whole article on the Expansion Special Reserve 45's all of which feature tracks that were unrelased on 7" until then and include Phyllis Hyman's version of 'Can't Live Without You' Jeffree's 'Love Loan', The Whispers 'Where There is Love' ect etc. They still get listed as 'reissues' though which they are not. Then I realised that JJ barnes 'Sweet Sherry' was never listed on Contempo 45 in his discographies despite that being it's first 45 release, which always seemed strange to me as it's such a Northern classic. There's a claim somewhere for a Groovesville 45 (not the bootleg) but it's still unsubstansiated to my knowledge. I'm still waiting to actually see a copy or even a scan of Mr Dynamite's 'Sh'Mon' on a US label too. All good fun innit !
Guest Soul Sid Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 Im not able to put a soundfile up havnt purchased relevant equipment.Dee Dee Warwick-Worth every tear I cry on uk Mercury. Top Tune. Cheers Sid

Guest Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 The Drifter - long john baldry - I have never heard or seen of a US release of this?
Guest Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 No. 1 in your heart - herbie goins - I know "coming home to you" was released on Capitol records over there, but I have never seen a USA copy of this all time classic!
Guest Posted April 7, 2007 Posted April 7, 2007 I Feel so bad - jackie edwards - I dont think "Island records" released this over the pond did they?

Eddie Hubbard Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 How about Jack Hammer's version of Little Anthony's " What greater love " on UK United Artists ? Got a Barbara Jean English " Key in the mailbox " on UK Contempo , was that ever issued as a ' 45 in the USA ? Best ,Eddie
Eddie Hubbard Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 I Cant Go On - deon jackson - contempo ere.. I've got this on Carla [ USA ] , great record tho ' .Best ,Eddie
Guest melandthensome Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 I have this on a blue Coral demo but its not like my other Coral demos on English as this has just a blue label with no large A on it...anyone know anything about these at all please. sorry for the mp3 but every time I try the sound clip my pc does one on me and my fist has nearly gone through the screen a few times....its my pc nothing to do with the site . cheers mel
Guest Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 I've got this on Carla [ USA ] , great record tho ' .Best ,Eddie Different mix Ed !
Guest Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 How about Jack Hammer's version of Little Anthony's " What greater love " on UK United Artists ? Got a Barbara Jean English " Key in the mailbox " on UK Contempo , was that ever issued as a ' 45 in the USA ? Best ,Eddie The Alithia flip of Barbara's 'I'm Living A Lie' is 'All This' on but the Contempo 45 has 'Key In The Mailbox' so looks like it is UK only then Eddie. Nice version too. Plus the Contempo release is better quality plastic.
Guest melandthensome Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Had these for years now on English alongside his other well know wheel choons.....
Guest melandthensome Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Sorry about the mp3's Rachel will stop there cheers mel
Guest SteveSnow Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 The Drifter - long john baldry - I have never heard or seen of a US release of this? I think you're right. If I said I preferred this version to Ray Pollard's, would I get a visit from the Soul Police?
Blake H Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Strange Feeling - earl jordan - ua Posted before but fits the thread, old Searling spin on Hallam FM
Guest Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Eternal Love - jackie opel - king .. That is a lovley record , I want one
Guest Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 I think you're right. If I said I preferred this version to Ray Pollard's, would I get a visit from the Soul Police? Didn't you know that on the ninth day, God made Ray Pollard's 'The Drifter' in his own image ?
pikeys dog Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 I've got this on Carla [ USA ] , great record tho ' .Best ,Eddie Completely different mix to the U.S Carla issue....
Guest Posted April 8, 2007 Posted April 8, 2007 Whats this worth? had one for ages,strange but great! Steve That is a lovley record , I want one I'm not even sure it's UK only. Must have had a J.A. release I would think ? Maybe Pete Smith or someone will know. I paid a couple of quid a few years back, twenty seems to be about right now.
