Isley Brothers - Their Best Tracks
Almost but not quite - it duplicates the tracks in a different order, plus B.A.P.S LP has a couple more on...so i'll say go for that one instead... The additions on Behind A Painted Smile: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGZ07VWZEUI Obviously re-packaged as a cash-in, since "Take Me..." was their last 45 for Motown prior to them leaving for pastures new.

Ranking Johnny Manship? Again?
There's another final reason for cutting acetates - to push songs to other companies for 'their' artists to record... Most famous of these would be Ben E King - Gettiing to me. I had a copy of a Teddy Randazzo track that had 'The Olympics' on the label along with the sheet music; this had obviously been sent to the Olympics as a demo for them to record.

Non-Motown Jobete Songs
No Jobete credit on the LP sleeve - it states all selections are BMI. Label just has the writers credit.

Solomon Burke On John Manships
I'd rate it at about a tenth of the price achieved - a US issue might make £35 on a fair day with a wind behind it...

Inez And Charlie Foxx - (Artist Of The Week)
I think most are - the UK Sue LP sleeves seem to be printed on lower quality card with a thinner laquer than say EMI (Garrod & Lofthouse) sleeves - hence them getting dog-eared pretty quick.

Four Shells Hot Dog Volt
Prefer the flipside "Reputation" Hot Dog was a big Pittsburgh Oldies sound, which means you end up paying a decent amount for what should be a cheap 45. Even though it books lower in Manships, Val Shively has a slack handfull that he won't let out of the store for less than around $50 a pop
