Class!

You're lucky the old dear selling them didn't reach down and pull Manship's Guide out.

Ouch...that's one expensive frisbee!

Didn't he once play a mean frisbee with one of Trouble's 45s? Can't recall the context but that would have been comedy gold!

Any idea who's stuff that was on Omega? Not sure on Omega's postage rates "£4 plus vat for for recorded delivery on one record...is that ok?" Err, no, not really...

Here's the label back catalogue. You'll get a clue from the 'unofficial' bit next to the releases. The Japan bit is there to throw you. https://www.discogs.com/label/203875-Originals

Micky G just posted one in sales Sean

If the Strivers Show Band is going for $400 now Le Cop should be double that based on quality and scarcity! Loads more Strivers around than Le Cop: used to be nigh on impossible to shift the Strivers when they all appeared a few years back. Le Cop is probably one of the beefiest pressed records Evers: speaker quake off that one!

Love this!

Just uploaded 45+ James Brown and related 45s to the website soulstacks.com You can find them here https://www.soulstacks.com/product-category/james-brown-and-related/

J.D Hall on J.D.H is a strange one. Still considered by many to be a hard one on original the pressing that surfaced via J.D himself a few years back (that is markedly different from copies around before then) seems to have confused things a bit. Once an expensive £300+ sold the other week was £15 though doesn't say if it's the 'fuzzy edged' copy or not. Still, £15 down from £300 represents a bit of a trip!

Sunday seems like the ideal time to wind down with some long players (unless you have nutter kids running around your ankles)...try these recent releases Check out all albums on the site here PMs or email to soulstacks@gmail.com Click the tracks for clips.

Instrumental to 'Ooo Wee' plus 'I Got Burned'. See here Sharon Jones & The Dap-Kings - Give The People What They Want (Daptone) £14 (sealed) Another solid long player from this most consistent of soul groups, loads of highlights on the album including the straight up Northern Stranger To My Happiness, the classic Daptone sounding We Get Along, the sweet finger-snapper Get Up and Get Out and more. So good. Retreat!

Raw edged production gives this a live feel and at times the feeling of walking into a jam session takes you right up close to the musicians. Really good find: at times fragile and crumbling at others rock solid, a proper music journey through the often far-out ideas of an ensemble maybe too ahead of their time for their contemporaries.

Oops Just seen this. As John says the easiest way to spot the difference is that on both sides of the label the pressing number is (UR-234-B)

$800 buy it now on his ebay thing the other say: sure I saw it https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BARBARA-ST-CLAIR-Teacherman-Jekyll-And-Hyde-45-rare-Soul-/300952915277?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item4612310d4d

I believe Walter Grady - who was keen on pulling a few underhand tricks - 'reissued' this a couple of years after The Blenders issue came out, renaming the group so that either it would look like a new release and get airplay or so the band wouldn't know (and I guess they'd want paying if they found out ) You could postulate that If Grady had paid all studio/pressing costs without reaping much back, he maybe felt he owned the music to do with what he wished. I had some strange dealing with him in the early 2000s - peculiar guy, seemed a bit shaky. Speaking to Roy Roberts recently he fondly recalled that everyone in the Carolinas wanted to kill him!

Top two sider. On a related note the just released previously unreleased album on the group is well worth checking too: doesn't include these two cuts.

Soulstacks Records are delighted to offer this debut 7" single courtesy of the talents of North Carolina’s finest, Mr Roy Roberts. Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full

Recently had the pleasure of dealing with the legend that is Roy Roberts on licensing a couple of his tracks for a 45 that finally came out last Tuesday. One side is a 70s modern dancer only previously found on a Country album he made in the mid 70s, the other a discoey thing that did get a 7" release back in the day. Tried to find unreleased gear but there wasn't any: guess that would have surfaced by now. Anyway, it's funny because at no point during the conversation regarding licensing did Roy not stop me and ask "But son, are you not concerned that you are wrecking people's record collections with this forty-five?".

Surely a record company is going to release something outside of the original domain because of it's popularity (be it on a soul scene or wherever) not in spite of it !? Surely they wouldn't release it just for the sake of it? Unless maybe to get foreign interest for the artist, but even so...

Gutted you couldn't find the copy for sale here - was looking forward to a reunion with that one. Always be a classic 'deep Funk' spin for me: fits right next to Cross Bronx.

Great price for a proper original - think the price crashed due to Hall 'issuing' copies which, in hindsight, weren't early 1980s vintage.

Not the best pic but if the text has that blurry edge it's a newer copy. There's on ebay with a blurry looking edge (though not a great image) that was at £60 with a bid last time I looked.
