Saw this yesterday and meant to check it out properly and now its gone. Is it real or is it a boot/reissue?

Reason I ask is its the only light green I have seen that had no "distributed by ATCO" under the Luther Ingram.

If it was kosher then not a bad deal for someone.

cheers Mark.

But it wasn't a joke! I had that record in about 1975 and don't think I even heard the vocal until it came out on a compilation album in 1985. It was never played, ever. And I still wouldn't piss on it if it was on fire. Well I would, but only the instrumental side, I'd probably throw a damp cloth over it.

What's the point of coming onto a Northern Soul forum and slagging down classic's that alot of people love, it's depressing. That's why I left a previous site, unconstuctive and negative comments.

Well leave this one if you can't put up with people having an opinion for Christs sake...

Big deal, a scooter with some record labels owned by a bloke who probably never heard a Northern record til 1984, nice chap though he is.

He's a very nice chap indeed........I dont understand the relevance of when you got into soul music tho'................so long as you get it, who cares.

Lifting the needle onto that mint copy of Walter & The Admirations at the 100 Club. Yep pretty big deal.

Is it possible to tack a poll on this thread - vocal/inst ? Anyone give a toss?

On face value his post could look like that, but you have to understand Pete S is our resident 'Victor Meldrew' & we expect his rantings on tunes he dosen't like, it's just a bit of fun so stick around a bit first Stardom

If you really want to work his forehead vein try starting a thread on 'how many peas can you fit on a Carstairs 45' or something !

Back to the thread, as i said, i like em both, but if i were backed up to a wall, fitted with thumb screws & had a gun held to my head then i would probably go along with the X Factor fan & plump for the instrumental .

Another voc/inst dilema from around the same period ; Ronnie & Robyn, which came up on a thread earlier this year https://www.soul-source.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=44554 I prefered the vocal to the instrumental on that one. Though that said, i would have loved to have heard it performed by a more soulful voice. Opinions ?

Never seen that bugger ? Fair play ! That must be the hardest

To me, that looks like the label has had a little bleech "spill" on the label.

Can you put up a scan with the full 45 out of the sleeve, showing the deadwax etc. As from that scan I can't tell which press it is or even if it's an original.

Bleach!!are you mad and is deffo`real 100% so there i will find later and re-scan as above maybe,wouldnt play it out otherwise ,might be Petes pissed on on this one.

Edited October 30, 200717 yr by ken

Tell you what, I'm getting sick of all this "how dare you slag a record off" attitude, if you can't have an opinion on something there is no point in having a forum, we can't all like the same records. So in classic toys out of the pram style, I'll just post in sales and look at your box from now on and you can all hug each other while comparing notes on how great Footsee is.

Think he means the 'cardboard box' that he is living in since his Mrs kicked him out for constantly moaning about the records she likes !

Any update on that odd one of Ken's ? I thought it was just a problem with the scanner when he put it up.

Thanks, what is the B-side label design and colour?

Is it exactly the same or is it different or slightly different. Hard to comment from a scan but I'm just trying to acertain - is it some weird printing error? or a deliberate design? What do you think?

As for the "bleach" you obviously have never heard of the Johnny Hampton "White Demo" or that wonderful "multi-coloured issue" of Little Joe Roman's.

You can do wonderful with a colouring set and bleach

Your "exus trek" 45 is obviously seriously interesting..

I dont know John,i think print error maybe.........up to press a one off,probberly contracted some sort of Hep though being played at dodgy soul do`s.

PS if you want to offer me a big heap of money and a normal copy its yours

Hey Pete, don't you like Scooters? I can understand it if you prefer the instumental from Luther. (cause that was played first and you are old)....but Scooters? What have us scooter fans got to do with your hang ups?

Are we allowed to like Soul and Ska.......and Scooters, even if we are only in our early 20s?

Is that OK with the Soul Police?

  ken said:

its a white paper copy that got lost in a DETROIT chemical factory................Not long after, large weights of MDMA were precured from this record? The FBI are still wondering where Mr Ingrams cousin vanished to?

Anyway.....if its a artistic copy or a real rarity...................its bloody great!

VERY INTRESTING?

Edited October 31, 200717 yr by mossy

if its a bit of nutty paper applied in the pressing plant, then even better!

Its a normal issue print on a strange background colour is it not?

If it is genuine then it is a quality one off! If it is a computer aided crack.........your a funny cun.t!

But it seems to be a 1 off at the mo?

But I am smelling a Pete Smith wind up at the Mo!

I'd love to see it in the "flesh". I do find stuff like this, really fascinating.. If ever we meet, do try and bring "Luther" with you so's I can see it.

Like you say some sort of paper or print error or factory colouring fault in the original paper.. If that label was a British postage stamp it would be worth a fortune.

Thanks for your work presenting the scans..

Nothing - Simsy started it. I just said that the vocal version became popular with scooterists in the first place and not on the Northern Soul scene, thats all.

Stop reading things that aren't actually there.
