Gotta add this too, the fantastic Valadiers, not bad for a bunch of white guys..... Can upload Jarmels now too....(I would've covered this up if it weren't for the miracle of soundhound apps and a release on a doowop cd.....) And the Spindletoppers with Carl Spencer....

Can Ady Croasdell throw any light on it?

Keeping my good one, but got a trashed demo with mucky labels that plays through as vg at best with some crackles for fiver if anyone's totally desperate; thus supporting the comments on finding decent demos!

Would say 30 for a demo (havent seen an issue?)nice double sider but fave side for me is the mid tempo flip, sublime! Mark

I just love collecting doowop influenced soul / early soul and early group R&B, provides a whole other universe (at least for soulie ears) to go down in seeking tunes, just like those with the latin bug etc (another genre I love). Far too many good doowoppy things to mention but a quick couple of faves that come to mind (sorry at work, network doesnt let me put up youtube clips): Carl (Spencer!) and the Spindletoppers - It's written your face -(ABC) Jarmels - Keep your mind on me - Laurie (discussed this on a recent thread)

Four Gents - Young Girl Beware - Oncore Still looking for one of these, PM me with a price and condition please Cheers Mark

If is indeed alt version, go on then where's this from? Can't be on vinyl surely the regular one's never gone below 400 and it's been around for donkeys now ( my daughter keeps asking me to get one and apparently a boot's not good enough for her - gets that from her popps I suppose!).Sounds nice, vocal backing and even more strings etc - but hang on is this 'real'? Updated version? Also vocally sounds similar but not as refined / sweet as the one we know, is it defo him? An older him? Somebody else? Just the Angeline Morrison thing got me thinking...Was none the wiser when I 'google translated' the french!

Forgot to add phil 'acetate' shields my list of suspects but I see thats ruled out! Highly ungentlemanly of the seller to pull the record after bidding started tho (how many of us are guilty of sneaky off site offers though when it comes to the crunch......ahem!) Thought the same re the stardust connection

Bugger, and I had just put a snipe on it last night too!! Interesting that there were about 200 views yesterday teatime of this thread with the link to ebay item, and the ebay item at the same point had roughly the same number of views on the counter So then, which one of you guys got it, I'm coming after ye....starting with Sean Hampsey (I don't trust that emoticon in post #8) or Blake H's innocent question type post when he's maybe already snaffled it. Does this mean the rest of the LP tracks eg I dont want to lose you etc are kicking around in acetate format I wonder...

My iphone's only got limited views of ebay descritptions, ships to US only? Should be a fair bit of interest in this assuming not dodgey and condition ok - at last a respectable way to own it on 45s for all those tapped folks who pass on LP only tracks!

Post removed by my own conscience for fear of offending oldies fans.

Just come across a discog though, looks like this wasn't a second release, but was actually the last thing they recorded (1963) on the label (or at all as the Jarmels I believe). Found this on a doowop website..... The Jarmels (Richmond, Va) Personnel : Nathaniel Ruff (Tenor) Earl Christianson (Tenor) Ray Smith (Baritone) Tommy Elridge (Bass) Paul Burnett The Jarmels 1961 - Little Lonely One / She Loves To Dance (Laurie 3085) 1961 - A Little Bit Of Soap / the Way You Look Tonight (Laurie 3098) 1961 - I'll Follow You / Gee Oh Gosh (Laurie 3116) 1962 - Red Sails In The Sunset / Loneliness (Laurie 3124) 1962 - One By One / Little Bug (Laurie 3141) 1963 - Come On Girl / Keep Your Mind On Me (Laurie 3174) N/A - Why Am I A Fool For You (Collectable LP 5044) N/A - You Don't Believe A Word I Say (Collectable LP 5044) Discography : The Jarmels were one of those one-hit wonder groups, responsible for a number 12 single in 1961 entitled "A Little Bit of Soap." If none of their other five singles did remotely as well, that song has lingered in the public consciousness, partly with help from periodic new hit versions by the Exciters in the mid-1960s and Showaddywaddy in England during the 1980s. The Jarmels came from Richmond, Virginia, where the five members had all begun singing together in church and school. Nathaniel Ruff (b. 1939), Ray Smith (b. 1941), Paul Burnett (b. 1942), Earl Christian (b. 1940), and Tom Eldridge (b. 1941) may have come from Virginia, but the name of the group they formed in the late 1950s came from a street in Harlem. Their manager was Jim Gribble, who also managed the Mystics and the Passions, and brought the Jarmels to Laurie Records in New York in 1961. They were a rather unusual addition to the Laurie roster, for most of the company's artists were white, and sounded more pop than R&B-influenced. The Jarmels combined pop and R&B influences, most notably the sound of the post-1958 Drifters. Their first single, "Little Lonely One," was a hit in New York but never charted nationally. Their second record, "A Little Bit of Soap," written by future Neil Diamond/Van Morrison manager Bert Berns, (who also produced the Drifters), got to number 12 in America in the summer of 1961 during a six-week run on the charts. This was the Jarmels' first and last chart success, none of their four subsequent singles charting at all. They recorded their last single, "Come on Girl," in 1963, and the group soldiered on for a while into the mid-1960s with numerous personnel changes --their later membership included Major Harris, who subsequently became part of the Delfonics.

Picked up the Jarmels - Keep your mind on me - Laurie recently, love it, nice bit of doowop meets northern. Seems surprisingly hard bearing in mind the label / group, where I could find it ,it was listed for around $60 - $80 or so. Just wondering if it was the doowop or northern demand which commanded the price - hasn't come to my attention before on the northern scene but curious if this has been played out here? Have actually got another one for sale but genuinely not my intention for a free flog, just interested in how known it is. I believe it was a second release of 'Come on girl' on the flip which might've been a hit for them (both mine are advance release copies, so did this second one never get issued hence why its not common?) Cheers in advance Mark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vphWK87MD8U

Cant play the utube clips at work but I've got the Conlo one, heard both 'releases' of 'Stop...' before and I'm sure the Conlo's a bit more meaty, the Conlo one is the one that got played around the usual Scottish venues in the 80's
