    ive got this as well......theres a very rare Diana Ross photo on the back cover...presumably used at the start of her solo career when there wasnt many solo shots about.. that was a cut out of a Supremes photo session that yielded the front cover of a Supremes album ...cant remember which

    What is the source of this...CD ..LP..?....tia ...sounds like a later rerecording.....
  13. Platters 81
    slighty off topic..i think i mentioned some time ago i have a 7" no label metal acetate of "Instant Heart break" i got from Tim A years ago...which is about 5 rpm slower than the Drew issue...i wonder if this is how it was originally recorded ..and speeded up for the Drew release...play the Drew at -5 ..let me know what you think...Dream Girl is identical Acetate and Drew recording

    a good source of info is GEMM...key in "Horace Ott"...sellers like JM often give arranger/producer info in their descriptions...
  16. Platters 81
    didnt he arrange the Geminis 45s on Rca ?
  17. Platters 81
    great info Dave.......is the Louise Williams album track "The Ghetto" the Donny Hathaway tune?.....
  18. Platters 81
    great info ......i always used to assumethey were early boots.....any idea where the label was based...?.(UK?)...the original 45s are all over the place geographically in US.....i'm trying to think what market they were aimed at.(you could say the Twisted Wheel!)..they werent all big hits..altho i would imagine that some sold in fair quantities......heres a scan of Darrell Banks......wonder what 507 was?
  19. Platters 81
    Ethics "Look at me now" (Vent)..love this and the fabbo flip "Think about Tomorrow"..great Philly tune
  20. Platters 81
    reminds me of that Gene Wilder line in Young Frankenstein....."nice grouping"...
  21. Platters 81
    Ultimations..."Would i do it over" on Mar-V-Lus.......it certainly is
  22. Platters 81
    i havent got the long/short demo so i cant confirm for definite...there was a good thread on this a while ago.....one thing is interesting is the mislabelling of the short vocal version on the UK EMI ISSUE as "Dynamite Explodes" (Morris Bailey..of Celestrals fame among others)...which is actually the title of the Gentle Persuasion song (US Soul Dimension/UK People)....
  23. Platters 81
    I think this is an early boot..(71/72?)...i sent a scan for JM to include in his next bootleg guide....ive only got the 3rd edition...has there been one since?..BTW the labels on mine are reversed ...are they all like this
  24. Platters 81
    Leon Collins.....came out twice with diff B sides.....both good
  25. Platters 81
    i had both at one time (then i sold the black one (i was going thru my "beige" period at the time) then i was told the brown was a boot ...why i believed this i dont know as it was a common 45...my theory is that the brown was first because for the second run they ran out of brown ink and had to use the plentiful black
