  1. Ryan Shaw has been around for a while..hardly a new singer...
  2. Minit-issue or demo..
  3. If Craig Charles considers himself a spokesman for the northern soul scene he's deluded.As for the racism issue, i think its a myth.I never saw any of this during 1972-78 while active on the scene.About 5 years ago i was to attend a local Frank Beverley show in Philly, many people warned me against it..citing racial issues. The cab driver dropped me off 2 miles from the venue as he was scared.I walked the remaining 2 miles, buying t shirts along the way. It was a sports stadium, rammed, approx 40,000.I was the only white face, no funny looks..or trouble..the only surprise was that a 'white guy was into FB'...
  4. you have a pm

    just pay the seller by paypal..with your shipping address..
  6. doesn't post #36 contradict this?
  7. so..to simplify..is there any way to identify the instrumental just by the details on the label..?
  8. does anyone have a scan of this elusive disc..

    thats a really well put together list..and the soundclips are great..
  10. and lets not forget..its nemesis 'the mighty lover' Mighty Lovers/Ideals appeared on three label variations..all appear to be agreed 1960's press..
  11. yes Pete Smith makes this point at the begining of the post..but later posts that according to John Anderson both issues (green/orange) were pressed at roughly the same time...i doubt a second issue was pressed 8 years later unless it was for the northern demand..i bought a white label copy autographed by popcorn wylie from SB around 1976.. i never knew an orange copy existed until 20+ years later..i was with Dave Raistrick who coolly pronounced 'not an original..soul bowl..' i bought it anyway...
  12. not necessarily...some labels were produced as semi blanks..with the logo/address and other constant details ..the artist/title and other details unique to the recording were printed onto the existing label..but i dont think this matters much in this case..just a label change inbetween the presses..the big questions are which was first and the time lapse between the two presses..i always thought the orange was a much later press exclusive to Soul Bowl to cater for the northern demand..but after JA's comment and the info posted here..i believe both are/were pressed about the same time..making it a true 1st and second or simultaneous press...a fairly common instance with northern soul records..and i think the orange press is due a reassessment..
  13. thats a great version/take...think i prefer it..better vocals and tempo as you say..
  14. maybe..it certainly raises a big Q over the both issues..i guess as the green one surfaced first it was assumed it was the original/first press..maybe not..it does appear that both were taken from the same plate..but so were some reissues..i believe the orange and green ones share a similar press time..and wouldn't be surprised to see the orange rise in value..i dont think the green one is mega rare..seen a few of those over the years..and id B&S were selling them at 30p bitd??
  15. orange label..moulded on type..matrix appears as scratched in..(counter clock) 20011 6m 209 malone? labels off centre on both sides..dimples in vinyl both sides...
  16. thats what i originally asked..and its a possibility..or maybe JA recollections of the pressing times are a little off?
  17. no doubt..but the question i'm pondering is..why only green copies surfaced when both colours were pressed at the same time.? (almost)
  18. interesting..although both issues were apparently released almost simultaneously i never saw a second issue orange until they became available from Soul Bowl. Does this imply they were never/poorly distributed..or did anyone have an orange issue around the same time or slightly after the green copies surfaced?
  19. issue or demo..pm with price & cond..thanks..instant payment..
  20. am i missing something...who actually has it been identified as? Art Posey?

  23. so, there you have it..an almost simultaneous release probably to eradicate the pressing problems of the green issue..however my orange copy has dimples in the vinyl..but plays great..
  24. re..the white so called 'test press'..was available from soul bowl for around £5 sometime in the late 70's..i bought one and it was autographed..i dont think it was a real test press as such..just a white label with popcorns signature..
  25. never knew it was a different mix...anyone confirm or add details?
