Both sides of the Sheryl 45 were re-released on UK Beacon and german Polydor around 69/70.

And he missed another release of the "good version", german Metronome. Never take Manship as gospel.

You‘re absolutely right. Modern day press. Pretty obvious. Have to admit I never look closer at the label scan on Discogs. Should have done so.

Many thanks! here's just a YT vid for reference in case anyone's interested in hearing Betty's version. Very sparse compared to Ben's take. But yet fully produced so not a demo take. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUwdvqrcQiU

Betty Everett - No place to hide Sparse but nice cover version of Ben E. King. Does anyone know what the first vinyl release was? Discogs lists a 45 on Sherry Hill but that 45 looks like a boot to me. I guess first ever release was on a 1977 best of comp.

Just been told #12 is Jimmy Wilson - Inside out. So all sorted now. Many thanks to all who helped!

Managed to nail down #32, Ricky Lance - Super strong #12 anyone?

Such a loss. One of the greatest voices in Soul music.

Many thanks, much appreciated. Just been told that #33 is Oliver Christian Dissatisfied man.

I was cleaning out an older external HD the other day and came across a folder with 60-ish unlabelled mp3 files of what appears to be modern soul classics transferred from audio tapes. With the great support of Chalky we managed to identify and label most of the files but 4 songs are left that we couldn't recognize for what it's worth. Can you help? I attached 60 sec audio clips of each song. Thanks a lot for your help! #12: #12.mp3 #32: #32.mp3 #33: #33.mp3 #34: #34.mp3

As title says. With or without picture sleeve. Must be at least VG. Please pm. Many thanks!

From what I understand Cameo-Parkway Records was set up in 1963, hence (c) 1963. Before 1963 it was just Cameo Records.

Does it really matter who he is? And if he owns all the records he posts vids of?

sorry for hijacking but this sounds very interesting. Am I right that you assume that 340 is some sort of customer ID used by the Oneida record plant? I just went through the Discogs list. Releases are right across the whole board of popular music. So I don't think 340 is linked to a specific client/customer. I guess this is just a sort of generic number used by Oneida. Maybe used each time a customer didn't want to have their names/addresses in the company's accounts?

EULA COOPER - STANDING BY LOVE / I NEED YOU MORE - NOTE (yellow issue) 100 GBP classic crossover side "standing by love" plays and looks a solid EX. The fantastic slower flipside plays a nice VG++, just shy of EX. A few hardly audible scratches for the first few seconds. Both labels clean, no writing, wear etc. I PREFER TO TRADE THIS 1:1 FOR ANOTHER NICE CROSSOVER RECORD Price includes registered shipping worldwide. Payment Paypal F&F. Thanks for looking!

sorry, overlooked that. my bad. But I'm still convinced this is just a copy of the blue label re-release. Manship bootleg guide says the blue label one = second issue.

How doesn't it marry up with this Discogs entry? https://www.discogs.com/de/release/6877236-Billy-Sha-Rae-Im-Gone-Lets-Do-It-Again it's the second issue/press, by the way.

That's also my understanding. And would explain the 1.000's of old stock issues of Spyder Turner and very low number of DJ copies.

Is there any way to hear that version of "You're turning"? Am very curious.

How about Edwin Starr on Ric-Tic? Stop her on sight or Agent-OO-Soul.
