Northern Soul Uk Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Hi peeps Went into Leeds today and went into one of the main record shops. I spotted a couple of crates of 'New' 7" records stuck underneath the racks. I asked the owner what they were and he said, "a bit of everything, have a look" I went throught the records and found a few that looked 'Northerny' going by the labels, and listened to a load. I ended up buying 4 that i'd never heard of but were amazing. So I just wondered if anyone on here had heard of them? They are Sharon Jones and the dap-Kings - 100 days, 100 nights on 'Daptone' records LaShawn Collins - What you gonna do now on 'Escrow' records Funky music machine - I can't help myself on 'Black top' records (a really Northern version of the 'Tops' classic) and best of all Hank Soul Man Mullen - He upset your dreams, on 'Ever-Soul' records, what a blinder! let me know if you know any of them and what you think. I only paid £15 for the 4. Steve
The Tempest Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 La Shaun Collins has been getting spins for a couple of years now , think your issue is uk and came out in 2006 , a cracking crossover tune and a bargain Enjoy
Northern Soul Uk Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) La Shaun Collins has been getting spins for a couple of years now , think your issue is uk and came out in 2006 , a cracking crossover tune and a bargain Enjoy It certainly looks like a US release as it has no centre, I could be wrong, but then again there is nothing on the label that says where it originated, , the label colour is beige, The matrix number is 2571-45-A. What has it been fetching pricewise, if anything? Edited January 22, 2009 by steveluigi

Prophonics 2029 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 LaShawn Collins - What you gonna do now on 'Escrow' records I have this on a Blue Sincere label from Chicago it's also in red, green, yellow and orange with some copy's saying La Sawn Collins.

Mine's on yellow Sincere. Never heard of it coming out on Escrow though.
boba Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 It certainly looks like a US release as it has no centre, I could be wrong, but then again there is nothing on the label that says where it originated, , the label colour is beige, The matrix number is 2571-45-A. What has it been fetching pricewise, if anything? escrow is a UK bootleg label that attempted to make their stuff look legit, they also bootlegged the timeless legend LP and put some BS credits thanking the band members that were listed on the original LP. it should not be worth anything. I guess "escrow" is even a reference to the fact that they might have put money in escrow absent real licensing. the original US press is on the Sincere label, it came out on yellow, red, green, and blue labels. The blue is the rarest and I've been told it's an alternate mix (I have the other three versions which aren't).
Soul-slider Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Thanks for that, wow all part of the same company then? have you heard any of them? Steve Had Hank 'Soul Man' Mullens on the original 'Audel' 45 for a few years now, great tune!

Liljimmycrank Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Now then Steve, Was this in Relics Records? Dint know they had any northern stuff in there anymore (if it was there of course)

I only paid £15 for the 4. Steve All recent "new" releases, the Sharon Jones, Funky Music Machine & Hank Mullens are top notch, not worth anything though because you can buy them brand new for a few $ each. As stated the Collins is a boot. Daptone Records are really running it at the moment (have been for a few years) it is amazing, and kind of cool in a way, that there is still a soul fan who hasn't been turned onto it yet!! I can't reccomend that label enough, great 45s, cheap, order as many as you can, you won't be disappointed, I'm really serious. Sharon Jones has a great live show too, not to be missed. Ever-Soul is a subsidiary of Daptone. You'd probably really like Charles Bradley's stuff on Dunham from them too.
Richard Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Steve get a copy of this, great version of Betty Lavette tune https://store.daptonerecords.com/index.asp?...D&ProdID=28
Kris Holmes Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Steve get a copy of this, great version of Betty Lavette tune https://store.daptonerecords.com/index.asp?...D&ProdID=28 Yes, that is a blinder, amazing 45.
Agent45 Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Thanks for that, wow all part of the same company then? have you heard any of them? Steve Yeah. I have them both and like them. You would do yourself a favor to investigate the rest of the Daptone catalog as well.
Northern Soul Uk Posted January 22, 2009 Author Posted January 22, 2009 (edited) Now then Steve, Was this in Relics Records? Dint know they had any northern stuff in there anymore (if it was there of course)No Edited January 22, 2009 by steveluigi

The blue is the rarest and I've been told it's an alternate mix (I have the other three versions which aren't). Is this the one without the chimes?,i have it on Red with the chimes. Dave f...............
Shsdave Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Hank Soul Mullins, great record but a boot I presume. Can't imagine anyone wanting to release it legit, not exactly in demand ? Was getting plays a few years ago, I spun it at Solid Hit to no reaction. Goes for about £150 now I think. Bought mine in the 70s for pennies
Jumpinjoan Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Is this the one without the chimes?,i have it on Red with the chimes. Dave f............... Well I've just listened to it and it sounds the same to these ears. Chimes and all. But I'll let the 'real' experts decide
Liljimmycrank Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 No Hear on the grapevine you're managing Joeseph's Well these days?
Sebastian Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 Hank Soul Mullins, great record but a boot I presume. Can't imagine anyone wanting to release it legit, not exactly in demand ? It is legit. Have a strong feeling it was reissued because the owner of the label wanted to spread the music and not because it was in-demand. Great tune, just a pity that the drummer is a bit out of it during one of the breaks...

Mattbolton Posted January 23, 2009 Posted January 23, 2009 (edited) I'd guess it was Jumbo as they know their stuff. Keep an eye out in there cos they get most of the good reissue stuff. Matt who works there is a great funk/soul DJ and has absolutley one of the biggest and most diverse collections I've ever seen. Ever. I also get that Epic reissue of Jimmy Frazier for the soultime CD from there which I subsequently sold for £98!?! The Sharon Jones 100 Days is ace. Check out the video as well. Well cool. Done on two $50 60's cameras gleaned from ebay! Edited January 23, 2009 by mattbolton
Richard Posted January 24, 2009 Posted January 24, 2009 Steve also try The Symbolics - Conflict on Plut https://www.soul-source.co.uk/rare-northern...s-conflict-plut
Anoraks Corner Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 I have an original Audel copy of Hank Soul Man Mullens up for grabs...a strong 8 out of 10 condition...£150. Funky-edged Northern sounding well in vogue nowadays!
