But we've just learned that the flip was unissued on the bootleg and therefore rare collectible and beautiful. Put your girly group ears on Tone and re-listen it's got some nice bits in it.

And you work for free or donate all your income to charity?

What you mean it would get to people who want to own and hear it and can't afford to at the moment? And the producers, writers and artists would get some recognition and income. That's an outrage!

I meant the flip of the Hollywood 45 Andy, Why Can't I Love Him Like You

Got the Northern spins? I thoght it was Got To Get You Into My Life but t'other's probably a better dancer and not so bleeding obvious.

27th of this month, I'll put a blurb on them up in articles later this week. Ady

001-007 are all deleted and won't be repressed as the series is a limited press run. Plenty of others getting low in number so grab 'em while you can. Ady

Personal top ten; discounting the big selling classics Knight Brothers I'm Never Gonna Live IT Down Dori Grayson Try Love Enchanters I Paid For The Party Rozetta Johnson Who You Gonna Love Eddie Holman I Ain't Gonna Give Up Van & Titus Cry Baby Cry ( a different mix from the single as John stated) Robert Ramsey Like It Stands Incredibles Standing Here Crying Kenny Carter Showdown (a real grower) and finally and probably #1 Jaibi You Got Me which didn't register when we were compiling but grew on me massively over the years. Knowing the Banks family story it means even more and there's a very slightly different mix from the multi track tapes that has a very understated female backing group on it on the GWP CD Vol 2 CDKEND 326

We had just released Cry Baby by Garnet Mimms on a Birth Of Soul CD and yes Dave wrote the sleevenotes (not compiled) for Sanctified Soul so he would have avoided those two at the time.

Dave was indeed limited by licensing restrictions but was of course proud that all were licensed correctly and the revenues went to the right people. Some artists and writers benefited very well from the series as the sales were extremely good thanks to the concept, content and Dave's tireless work. He refused to be paid more than expenses on the 1st volume as he was worried it wouldn't break even! We are still toying with the idea of putting out a final volume as there were some of his key tracks unavailable at the time that have since become licenseable. He has written of several of these in his columns so we could even have authentic Godinese in the notes; if it does come about you'll all hear it here first. We might be accused of cashing in but Dave would definitely have been happy to see these sides out under his banner and it would give the series one last boost and hurrah.

Yes Dave wrote the lot, the last volumes was dictated to me from his sick bed but he wanted to get them out. He was as proud of the series as of anything in his life.

And a few others on Ebay under horacesrecords. I'll be outing a few more over the next few weeks. PS I hope this plugging of Ebay sales is OK mods; I ain't sold for a few decades.

On A Kent 45 in two weeks.

Good acetates Brian, if you're selling the Doug Banks, I'd go for it or if you want to preserve the sound do a high quality copy of it before you play it much, you can hear the needle damage on the first demo.

They were still doing some acetate 78s right up to 1965

Prelude was indeed H B's label

Not King Of The Mountain, one of Randy's favourites for years, I'd have noticed it on 45. Virtually certain Tomorrow wasn't either unless a weird foreign release.

I heard overnight from Arthur Wright that Kell died on Sunday morning in hospital. He had been there for a week and developed complications Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full

Thanks again Bob. I think Kent was involved in the Debra Dion 45 on Sue too.

It does seem to be incredibly hard Bob. Do you know much about them? The Valaquons will be very handy, thanks Ady

Misprint Robb I need a scan and sound file of the Valaquons to compare to the master tapes please Bob and thanks for the group info I need scans on all of them and sound files on some of them. Sorry I should have been clearer. Ta Ady

Ducky Drake 1992 Trend Francettes on Kentone Anybody please? For Kent Harris research. Ady

That's a dancer to my 59 year old legs. Somebody play it out!
