Guest Nik Mak Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Hi peeps picked up an Acitate of Jimmy Radcliffe 'You made a man of me' & wondered if it ever got a release on vinyl? A really awesome tune. Superb 60's dancable soul, Jimmy really belts it out in fine style. I'm tempted to get a carver done as I don't want to ruin the acitate by playing too much but if there is a record out there maybe I could go that way? Any ifo would be much appreciated. atb....

Associated Recording Studios (Blue n White label) No artist just title printed???? The guy maintains he may be pressing it some time next year. I guess this is very very rare? (Or maybe NOT?)

Guest Nik Mak Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 have you seen this thread ? https://www.soul-source.co.uk/baby-Pl...374#entry933374 Just tried to peel back the label no go it will come off but I don't want to tear it. It looks authentic as the label has that waxy feel to it like so many do from the 60's. If the track didn't get to vinyl then this would be the only way to get it after a cd copy & as long as the guy hasn't pumped out too many it's still a bit of a rare-un........

Chalky Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 have you seen this thread ? https://www.soul-source.co.uk/baby-Pl...374#entry933374 I was told about these acetates by someone who bought some, Original looking label peeled off to reveal the acetate supplier or something like and they proved to be recently made. I did ask him about this in another topic but he side stepped the question if I remember rightly. If you remember when this came about he didn't come on Soul Source for ages. Can't remember exactly what he said but sure he said summat like they should be lucky to get unreleased material. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Just got the label off nearly half way my ones a blank underneath no second sticker, no makers name so still not conclusive. When you say they bought some do you know how many? As long as there arn't frickin loads of them floatin' about that's cool but if there are boxes of them I'll be pissed off. The guy sold this off the back of it's exclusivity which may or may not be true. He is also posting other titles on here regularly so would be nice to know the truth.

Guest Nik Mak Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 (edited) track 3 of this six pack from Andy was it really 8 years ago https://www.soul-source.co.uk/rare-northern...-summer-of-2000 Just got some more info so I'm a lot happier now. There are only a few copies floating around done by JR himself back in the early 70's. (probably before his death in 73) It seems he went out and got a load of unreleased material pressed onto acitate when he moved to LA (Not just his own material either). It's his son selling them as you rightly pointed out. There are between 3 to 5 copies of each track he had so ultimately quite rare in their own right. It also helps that this one is a feckin' blinder!LOL! cheers for all the info guys much appreciated. Edited November 27, 2008 by Nik Mak Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Nik Mak Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 &? I've edited my post a bit as JR must have done the acitates in the early 70's not late as I wrote earlier. Sorry for the cock up. Got the flu Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
