Pauldonnelly Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 are the SOS yellow one real ones or legit re-issues? My understanding was Richard Searling had the only copy on a acetate when played at the Casino, I'm probably wrong so please someone put me right. Whatever the story is its one hell of a tune that just doesn't get played anymore.
Guest in town Mikey Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 I thought all SOS we legit, ie had royalties going to where they should go. Agreed, it is a tune and a half.
Guest Simon Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 are the SOS yellow one real ones or legit re-issues? They are the real ones, great tune & cheap as chips! Simon

Guest Michael Higgins Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Quite. The name of the production company is just one of the things that I've always thought make this record look odd. Maybe there's some well-known story to this, but was this record definitely manufactured in the same decade it was recorded? Every copy I've seen always looks suspiciously new. They lack what I think the Antiques Roadshow call "painta". It was also one of those one pound fifty, as many as you like, numbers from Soul Stop: but there again so were the Friendly People and Wade Flemons!
Guest Michael Higgins Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Oops, I meant "patina". Not "painta", which is what they call a container of milk in Ipswich. Quite.

Soul Shrews Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 (edited) Was covered up as "The Supurlatives" by Richard Searling. I first heard it at an all-dayer at Newcastle under Lyme Tiffs around 79/80 ? Also he first aired "The Volcanos" (Cashmeres) and "Williams and Watson" (Nobody Ever Said......) and a few thers I can"t remember off hand (I wrote then down on the sleeve of a 45 I"d just bought !! ) but there were a good few played to a small but enthousiastic crowd. Remember him starting his spot with the line "Got some nice new ones for you today !" Happy days Cheers Paul PS Sorry meant to quote your last post Mr Higgins thats why my reply begins with a laughing smiley Edited June 6, 2007 by soul shrews
