...and it sounds nothing like the Ozz & The Sperlings on Goldenway. Both tunes are very, very nice though. And also, the flip on Derek Martin is a nice uptempo stormer. Have a listen:

Original was released on BR (although the scan below shows the flipside): The bootleg (legal reissue?) was released on Bobby Robinson and pressed on styrene.

See below.

Are you thinking about this: Blow Smoke - Walking With The Sun / Ain't Gonna Kill The Spirit - GRT 49 Their only release as far as I know (from 1973).

That seems about right. I sold a copy on eBay a while ago (correctly listed and with a sound clip) for £25. Storming version, but I personally prefer Barbara Mason's original on Arctic.

There's no original 45 release of Della's version (it's included on her "I Gotta Be Me... This Trip Out" LP on ABC from 1968), but there was a reissue 7" released by german Universal a couple of years back in conjunction with it being included on one of those "Mojo Club - Dancefloor Jazz" compilations. A fantastic track and in my opinion by far the best version. And I'm with you on "It Was A Very Good Year" as well, scorching version!

And he's got THREE copies of it as well!

About 10 hours left on these now. Thanks for looking.

It's one of the harder Sam & Bill 45s, but still not more than £20-£30-ish. Can be found cheaper if you look around.

It is by Lewis Bethune and called "Chi-Town Boogaloo", released on Sack and it's stated to be "a Tru-Glo-Town production" on the label. Seems to be quite damn rare as it very seldom crops up for sale. Details: Lewis Bethune - Chi-Town Boogaloo / I Want You So Bad - SACK 4363 B-side is written by Dee Irwin.

The Soulfulkindamusic discography seems to confuse people. All label variations are originals, pressed the same year, at the same pressing plant. All have 501 as its catalogue number (as far as I'm aware). The numbers 1001 and 1002 are the matrix numbers for each of the songs. Check out the scans below. I'd guess that the white ones are demos and the multicoloured ones are issues. Please send in scans if you have a label that doesn't state 501 as its catalogue number.

"Worried Over You"... what a blinding tune!

Sam Cooke's "Live At The Harlem Square Club" was just re-released in a blasting remastered edition after having been out of print for about 10 years or so. It's everything the slick studio recordings by Sam isn't - raw, screaming, pulsating, sweaty, gospel fueled partytime soul with the King Curtis Orchestra as the backing band played in front of an adult audience in a chitlin circuit club down in Miami, Florida. Seriously, for me this is one of the greatest albums of all-time, and that's certainly nothing I say often about soul/r&b albums. If you haven't heard it, I strongly advise you to check it out.

£528.

Fantastic tune in my opinion (and decently priced). https://www.soulclub.org/stream/The_Incredi...s_Treatment.ram

I agree. How much does it go for these days? Seldom comes up for sale.

Flip it over for "I Hurt Myself". Another nice and gritty track in my opinion. By the way, anyone got a spare copy of "Our Thing Is Through" by him (also on Shama) for sale?

I sold a M- copy of this on eBay a couple of months ago with sound clips of both sides, properly listed and all. It ended at $36. Not worth more than £20-£25 tops.

No, it's only the LP that is in-demand and usually fetches $50-$150 on eBay depending on condition. It's a legendary album among US psych collectors.

Nice The Troll avatar you've got there. Their Smash LP is quite pricey these days. Fine US psych stuff.

Indeed. And cheap, get your copy here: https://www.daptonerecords.com/pages/dap1022.html Their original stuff is much better though. And be sure to check them out live if they visit your town. They're absolutely amazing and deliver one damn fine kick-ass show!

Shirley & Jessie were a New Orleans duo consisting of the equally legendary Jessie Hill and Shirley Goodman. Jessie Hill had some major hits during the early 60s on Minit like "Ooh Poo Pah Doo" and "Whip It On Me". Shirley was one half of the hugely successful duo Shirley & Lee and later had a big hit in the mid-70s with "Shame Shame Shame" on All Platinum as Shirley & Co. I prefer the Barbara Lynn version of "Oh Baby" but I absolutely LOVE "You Can't Fight Love", their other 45 on Wand.

Should be £5 tops (but it probably costs more) because the Itzy issue is a bootleg made in the 60s and NOT the "original, local label" as stated in most dealer lists. Itzy was notorious for re-releasing current hits for their local market without having the proper rights to do so. An original Swan copy of Mickey Lee Lane would set you back £15-£20 or so.
