Jaco Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 If you're after the Arin Demain "Blue Star" label, R & B Indies lists only that one track. There are 4 other Blue Star labels but not many tracks between them. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 Trying to track down a 'Johnny Wonderful' release. Jimmy Wonderful - Ain't Nothin' Shakin' Here / Tonight - BLUE STAR 400 There are two slightly different label variations of it: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jaco Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 The "Johnny Wonderful" listing shows no number and no address/city for the label. The track listing is shown as "Ain't nothing shakin' here/Unknown" Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) By the way, Arin Demain's "Silent Treatment" is also published by HEMISPHERE MUSIC so it would surprise me if the Jimmy Wonderful and Arin Demain 45s are not from the same label set-up.

Rich Buckley Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 By the way, Arin Demain's "Silent Treatment" is also published by HEMISPHERE MUSIC so it would surprise me if the Jimmy Wonderful and Arin Demain 45s are not from the same label set-up. I think Paul had a copy of Arin Demain on the Jimmy Wonderful type Blue Star label design in the sales section last week, so definitely the same label...

Rich NICE! And here it is: Nice to clear up stuff like this. I don't know what the "JW2" on the Jimmy Wonderful label refers to. "Jimmy Wonderful 2" perhaps? Was there another Jimmy Wonderful 45 on BLUE STAR as well? JW2 might be the actual catalogue number. Or perhaps it says "JW1" on the flipside label?

Anoraks Corner Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 I thought we once did a label listing over on RareSoulForum...will have to look when I get a chance. Off the top of my head there's also the great Lord Jim & The VIP's double-sider, Johnny Daye's semi-known mover and a not so good disc from Billy Storm, all outta the same stable as Jimmy Wonderful and Arin Demain.

The Lord Jim and Lefty Wright 45s are on the same BLUE STAR label as Arin and Jimmy. But as far as I know the Johnny Daye and Vogues 45s are on a different BLUE STAR label (from Pennsylvania). The Singing Ambassadors 45s are on what seems like yet another BLUE STAR label (out of Texas). Haven't seen the Billy Storm disc.

Anoraks Corner Posted January 14, 2009 Share Posted January 14, 2009 BLUE STAR 1965 - Billy Storm - It's What's Happening, Baby / That Funny Feeling Oops...forgot that the Johnny Daye was different...I even had it pictured in my mind...doh! However, rest assured this Billy Storm is DEFINITELY the same label as Arin Demain etc. I've found WD's of it with the 'Star' designed logo...thought I'd struck gold until the stylus hit the vinyl!
