    CLARENCE GREEN - DOIN' IT - AQUARIUS 1002 Funky crossover dancer. Not that easy to find. Last copy on Soul Source went for 150 in VG. Lovely yellow issue. Just one tiny visible but not audible scratch shy of EX grade. Labels clean. 175 GBP plus post from Germany. Please PM for further details.

    It wasn't. The Discogs pics were taken from a copy that sold for 2.2k on Ebay in 2019.
  3. Benji
    don't know. The scan on Discogs looks quite convincing and 3 users claim to own a copy

    Having a senior moment, what's the track starting at 04:11?

    June Jackson is the JJ Jackson on Prelude. But not the "But its alright" JJ Jackson.
  6. Benji
    It is true. At least on Discogs. Just checked. He has a couple of things from my wants list. But even with 50%off they are hardly bargains.

    Ken of Keith & Ken is Ken Lazarus. B-Side of the Xedo 45 is apparently “Cyclone” by Byron Lee. Apparently there’s no such song released by Byron Lee. Is it infact by another artist or even a cover up? (Which would incidentally confirm my belgian bootleg theory)
  8. Benji
    Whoever created the discogs entry said it's probably a Belgian release. Somebody else later changed it to US release and apparently nobody disputed this.
  9. Benji
    This record literally screams “belgian popcorn bootleg”.

    Now for sale as trade deal fell through CLARENCE GREEN - DOIN' IT - AQUARIUS 1002 Lovely yellow issue. Just one tiny visible but not audible scratch shy of EX grade. Labels clean. 175 GBP plus post from Germany. Please PM for further details.

    Sorry but after all these recent R.I.P threads your post gave me almost a heart attack!

    CLARENCE GREEN - DOIN' IT - AQUARIUS 1002 - 200 GBP Lovely yellow issue. Just one tiny visible but not audible scratch shy of EX grade. Labels clean. A bit too funky for my liking. So I'd like to offer it to trade 1:1 for something less funky of similiar value. 60s Northern preferred. Can supply label scan/sound file if required. Please PM for further details.

    The market was flooded with Fred Hymes copies in the early 2k. Think they all came from "Brookly-Born" (aka Rich Rosen). Allegedly old store stock.

    Seems to be an issue with the bulk upload interface or users not filling in the template correctly. I've come across many items on Discogs recently that have silly price tags on first look. But on second look it's just the decimal place that is wrong, e.g $1850 instead of $18.50.
  16. Benji
    6 Discogs users claim to own a copy if that's of any indication.

    and after all, it's pure pop in my opinion. Be it by Arthur Prysock or Allan Scott or whoever.

    There's a Joyce Harris who sang with the Slades but obviously wasn't in the band (them being an all-male outfit). Texas release. Cholli Maye Gold 45 is from the east coast. Same singer? I doubt.

    Maybe it's the demand from the Northern scene that increases prices in absolute numbers. But I think it's been the lowrider/sweet soul 45s that are skyrocketing these days in relation to what they did cost say 10/15 years. And many if not most of them are bought by UK collectors.
  20. Benji
    Again. He never claimed to own all the records he posted on YT, did he? Then why bother trying to "unmask" him?
  21. Benji
    nice little 2min documentary. It's not saying Northern Soul went away and is now coming back. It's saying it's popular again with the youth/younger crowd. And that it's all about dancing and everybody's welcome. Of course you have also some "journalistic inaccuracy". Like when the voice-over talks about rare US soul records and the vid shows a CD player And of course you have the obligatory Wigan Casino reference in it.

    Soul Inc 7" and LP version of WGUMCD sound like the same version to me. Clearly studio recordings. Maybe they didn't have enough live material for an entire album and added this studio cut?
  23. Benji
    According to Discogs and based on the linked YT vids as reference (and I know how easy it is to link the wrong video) my understanding is: 7" Emblem 101 - Soul Inc. WGUMCD (Studio Cut) LP Emblem 106 - Soul Inc WGUMCD (Studio cut, rest of album is "live") 7" Emblem 109 - Charts Unlimited WGUMCD (same song but completely different version) Correct? PS: Sorry for hijacking the John & Wierdest thread.

    And M- NOS copies turned up some years ago.
  25. Benji
    Terrible? Valadiers is a great example of the early Motown sound. I love it.
