All These Prix Records

[soulvillemartin]

I´m sure this topic has been dealt with before, but I must ask.

All these records on Prix, Eddie Ray, Joe King, Royal Esquires etc. that are

being sold on the bay, are they genuine?

In particular one seller seems to have a never ending supply of few titles,

making me suspicious...

[Mal C]

They are, Royal Esquires was a mega Rarity till a load got found, some guy in San Fransisco has a bunch and Funky Feet over here another load from the same batch.

there is a track by Eddie ray i think which is a unreleased track they have for sale..

all great records, but then you know that..

Bloody hope so,I bought Joe King, Royal Esquires & Eddie Ray for £100 the 3.

Think they've just turned up in abundance!!! Perhaps should have waited and maybe got them cheaper, I dunno.

They're all proper.

The owner passed away a few years ago and his wife sold the lot in a yard sale.

Master tapes, 45's, 3 years worth of recordings (69 - 71) the whole nine yards.

All great stuff!

Mixed bag really John - I got all the 45s, but apart from the ones you mentioned nothing really stood out. Might need to re-listen to em before someone tells me there s a killer deep soul 45. IS this CD a legit job - properly mastered - or just some bods who dubbed on all the 45s?

It's done from original master tapes. Like everything on that label, the CD is also fully and legitimately licensed and includes extensive liner notes with many photos of groups and artists.

All of the Numero label releases are worth their prices for the booklets alone! Definitely buy it and throw away the actual CD if you're sensitive about these things. The unissued Eddie Ray track "Wait A Minute" (which recently was issued on a 7" as well) is truly awesome.

And I take it that you haven't checked out their first Deep City compilation either? The unissued (acetate only) tune by The Moovers entitled "Darling I'll Go" is an utterly fantastic uptempo 60s dancer. Who's got the original acetate by the way? It seems to be pretty beat up, but would be nice to know.

they borrowed the acetate from willie clarke for the comp. the flip is a really nice sweet soul, apparently a cover of a doowop cut by clarence reid and the delmiros
