  1. It wouldn't surprise me if the reason instead is that Manship plans to issue a standalone detailed bootleg guide again sometime soon and want his customers to buy both the price guide and the bootleg guide.
  2. Great stuff Chalky. There nowadays seems to be a vacant lot on 310 Chestnut Street and an abandoned house next to it.
  3. Can't be a coincident that there's a (seemingly abandoned) trailer truck with "Citiplate" printed on it parked on the vacant lot opposite URP then!
  4. Probably. I have no idea really, it's just guesswork. But I enjoy looking up things like these on Google Maps.
  5. While I'm at it... ARCHER (in Detroit):
  6. Ok, so we have: 453 Chestnut St. = URP 457 Chestnut St. = Matrix Of Nashville 469 Chestnut St. = NRP My love for Google maps made me go dig this up: URP NRP That URP building is BEAUTIFUL! Can't find anything at "457 Chestnut St", it should be right next to URP but there's just a parking lot. URP is a big building though.
  7. That's a horrible mash-up. It's not even in tune. I'd rather listen to the original by Basement Jaxx. And that's saying something.
  8. There's a copy on eBay at the moment as well: https://www.ebay.com/itm/181001602237 There must be loads of them about.
  9. That's because after a certain amount of searches per day you need to pay to get onto the site, so you are re-directed to the login page. It seems like you have used up your searches for today. But rest assured, both variations are represented on Popsike. The one I linked to sold for £27 in August 2010.
  10. Look at the link I put up: https://www.popsike.c...nr=170517313129 taken from Popsike:
  11. Both designs are represented on Popsike. Here's the "curved logo" one: https://www.popsike.com/php/detaildatar.php?itemnr=170517313129
  12. Pitt Street is "down east" on the lower east side of Manhattan. Might allude to that?
  13. Here's a scan of the original 10" acetate that contains the Darrow Fletcher version of "No Limit":
  14. Yes, it exists. It's a version of the Uniques tune. Don't have the 45 myself, but have seen it on several sales lists.
  15. ... apart from the fact that the Rampart and Warner Bros 45s were pressed FOUR YEARS after the original on Linda.
  16. The LINDA release is from 1965. The RAMPART and WARNER BROS releases are from 1969. The 45 on Rampart was released in conjunction with the LP "Golden Treasures Volume Two: West Coast East Side Revue" which was issued on Rampart in 1969. It includes past hits from the LINDA / FARO / GORDO / RAMPART / WHITTIER group of labels.
  17. There are 300+ releases on the Stop label. It was indeed from Nashville, TN. Active from 1966-ish to 1971 or 1972. Lots and lots of country releases, but also a great funk 45 by James Fountain.
  18. OK, I'll stay out if this one. Not worth it.
  19. Yes, I'm fully aware of that and agree with you. Extended 12"s are mixing tools, they were originally intended for club play by DJ's who knew what they were doing and how to mix properly. That bit gets lost on the northern soul scene for the most part. It's always frustrating to hear some DJ play a new soulful house track from the beginning of a 12" and then a 2:30+ minutes drum intro ensues...
  20. Ofcourse. I was just highlighting the fact that I personally usually favor the 7" because the mix is shorter and gets to the point faster. Not because it's "format over song". If the 12" version is better, I play the 12". If the 7" version is better, I play the 7".
  21. No, most 7" versions are more "instant" and better in my opinion. Some cases in point: "Mainline" by Black Ivory, the superior french 7" edit of Sylvester's "Down Down Down", Four Below Zero "My Baby's Got E.S.P.". Playing the entire 12" versions of those tracks bores me out of my mind. And in the example of Sylvester, the 12" version is like a totally different tune and loses all of its punch. Very few tunes gain anything by being stretched out to 8+ minutes. Even an incredible masterpiece and all-time fave of mine like Universal Robot Band's "Barely Breaking Even" gets a bit too much after 10 minutes...
  22.

  23. Curtis on CHARM CITY is the same person as Curtis Anderson on BROWN BAG. That's 100%. Curtis released 6 45s on CHARM CITY (including two different issues of "How Can I Tell Her").
