    I think this came from Martin Koppell via his deal with Don Davis? The alternate take came out on Tim's Connoisseur label with an unreleased Edwin Starr song on the flip, whilst the original take came out on a Goldmine 7s with Sister Lee on the flip, If anyone has a test pressing or advance copy of the Connoisseur disc (printed font), I'd be interested. Regards, Dave

    45 was done about 10 years ago, I think by Dave Brown's Philly Archive set up. Shouldn't cost more than a tenner I would have thought. at lest that's what I paid around that time. Regards, Dave

    Was lucky enough to take Mr Walker out to dinner a couple of weeks ago in Horsham, Penn. He gave a valuable insight into the workings of the studio on Castor Ave (which we also visited). This, unreleased at the time, 45 was done as a demo and before he knew it The Agents had it recorded and leased to Liberty Bell. Regards, Dave

    Still playing catch up with the thread. Today's offering from a lady whose upbeat musical style contradicted the sad personal demons she carried inside herself. A daughter of Philadelphia, this is probably her best known outing but there's a lot more to this lady's legacy than this one epic dancefloor favourite. Catch the interview about her 'jingle' work. Bit of a 'looker' too eh?' Best, Dave

    Hi Tony, hope you're well Matey. Exactly. But the disc definitely states "A Philly Production". I know Cameo Parkway had a Sentra subsidy but when I asked around the city a couple of weeks ago no one seemed to know anything about the Sentry label. I know it's not an absolute but with the Bobby Joy being #103, I was kinda hoping someone may have copies of 101 or 102. Onwards and Upwards! Regards, Dave

    Anyone know anything about the Bobby Joy "Sweet Devil You" Sentry 103? It states Philly production but I can't ascertain if it's a Philadelphia label or not? With the TRC release adding to the confusion....any help would be appreciated. Anyone got any other releases on the label? Regards, Dave

    Listening to the 45 it doesn't sound like any of the Virtue house band. (Not saying it isnt but it's certainly a more raucus and powerful sound than they usually produced). The song is produced by Stilran so I've contacted Johnny and Luther to see if they can shed any light. Regards, Dave

    Does anyone know anything about these guys? Who were they? I only have one 45 by them but it's a version of 25 Miles that would rival The Funk Bros original! It was recorded at Frank Virtue's studio in Philly. Any help appreciated. regards, Dave

    Tried to PM you but it states your not eligible to use the PM system yet. Will email you when you become eligible. I presume it's because your soul source account is brand new. Alternatively you can email me at hitsville2648@earthlink.net Regards, Dave

    Not a huge fan of her voice but Diana Ross would have turned in a million seller with it for sure. Think of her success with "Remember Me". She would have replicated it with TWPYB I reckon. Regards, Dave

    Not old hat Mate at all. First time I've heard the demo of the song too. Nice one. Any interaction with the artists is fantastic in my eyes. Great that people take the time and make an effort to let them know how much their work (much of it unpaid), means to us. Regards, Dave

    John's story and his association with Harry Balk, Impact, Duke Browner and the TL song were all told in There's That Beat! about 6 years ago. (Issue #2 I think). He's a great bloke and was joy to interview. Coincidentally: Nick and Dino (the co writers of TWPYB), also had a release on Impact Records and if I remember correctly, were the writers of Gloria Gaynors Massive disco smash - I Will Survive". Best, Dave

    Sorry for my absence over past 3 weeks: Real World soul project took priority. This morning's offering: I collect Mary Wells records and still haven't located a nice clean demo of this 20th Century outing. Posted this just as much for the video as the song though. Great footage and a clip that shows just how important her Motown roots were to her success as they tried to recreate not only the sound but the 'ambience' as well.

    Because Robb, not everyone is born with 'the knowledge'. It takes some of us a while to catch up. :D Regards, Dave

    John's came from VS. It's part of an extensive interview I conducted with him last week. Some great stories from Val's escapades over the years. He was telling me that they used to put one 'good' 45 at the end of each pile and box em up with 100 shyte 45s between the two ends. Took him a while to work out that most UK collectors were after the shyte. He He! Another one that John proffed from Val was Damon Fox. It'll all be in the new book in September hopefully. Best, Dave

    I didn't hear this until around 93/4. It then took me another 10 years to get one. In my top 10 favourite records. Regards Dave

    I'm beginning to be convinced now that it's the same group. Just strange how I thought it a Philly group for all these years. You live and learn eh? Thanks for all the input guys. Regards, Dave

    Was recently talking at length with Val Shively when this 45 came up. I can't remember why but I always presumed this was a Philly group and not the same group as on Symbol ("She Blew A Good Thing"). I don't know why I presumed that but something in the back of my mind must have triggered it. The J-2 45 was produced by Juggy Jones (J-2?), so it all ties in with The Poets on Symbol (owned by Sue), but I was wondering if anyone had any definitive info? Regards, Dave
