If the TP really came from the ARP plant I guess it has a ARP stamp in the run out.

Dave, Johnny Watson = yes, some tried to pass it off as a 60s press. Four Voices gold always been advertised as represses from the same stamper (AFAIK). It's not the first time the alt take of Professionals is reissued. So I don't think it will kill the track now. Or do you guys think it's different this time because it's on a lookalike?

Curtis Lee sold. Hoagy Lands reduced. Have yourself a nice collectable! Apparently both sides not available anywhere else.

John, thanks for confirming an original acetate does exist. What's on the flip?

Can't find the album. Means I probably sold it What a c*nt I am. I still have so much dross from my soulful dance days and it looks like I sold the goodies.

Evidence? Because that would be like a personal dream coming true.

Isn't that a double album? If so I think I got it hidden somewhere in the record room. Must have a look tonight.

Yes.

Just a thought but maybe the 45 take isn't on any of the tapes?

CURTIS LEE & THE KCP'S - EVERYBODY'S GOING WILD/GET IN MY BAG - CBS (EX) £40 SOLD looks and plays lovely, only a few very light paper scuffs. sticker on flipside. B-side's a nice funky 6T's dancer.

Flipside is cover of the Platters and seems to be a UK-only release. Few light scratches NAP. Comes in a nice looking Parlophone sleeve. Very obscure release.

I can't recall the orig 45 take of the Professionals being reissued on any kind of format. I agree with Pete, none of the reissued takes (if there were more than one) sound as good as the 45 one.

Didn't know that. Are they counterfeits? And if so, what's the difference. Might buy one of them just to give my recordless Dearborn sleeve some use

No. unreleased. Don't know if genuine acetates do exist. I know of at least one homemade one.

50%. Not bad for someone who's never been interested in Motown.

Try the guys @ Sundae Soul https://www.facebook.com/sundaesoulrecordings I'm pretty sure they know if there's anything happening in Frankfurt

Cheers Pete!

Does anyone know what this one might be worth these days? Curtis Lee & The KCP's - Everybody's going wild - UK CBS (issue) Thanks! Benji

Johnson Family - Peace in the family.mp3

Oops, "for me". What I tried to say was that the copy he had for the review obviously stated "say a prayer for me" on the a-side.

While tidying up the record room I came across #1 of Dave McCadden's Soul Galore mag from 1996. He reviews TBD and mentions the a-side as being "say a prayer to me".

Ebay been charging on postage for quite some time. Blame the sellers who tried to recover their fees back via excessive postage. But in general I agree with uroffal. Ebay's waste of time these days when it comes to selling. I only use it as a last resort for stuff I couldn't sell.

There's also a french issue credited to SK. Again, "say a prayer" being the a-side.
