    Later than that.Ive a US Jackie Edwards track on that exact same label....the acetate is a ten inch and a lot lighter and thinner than regular acetates.Will dig it out.

    If there are so many problems in licensing how come Champ etc came out.Is it just the reggae stuff there are problems with?.I'm sure Alan Hawkshaw played on a lot of the Mohawks stuff and also on the Don't Change Your Mind track-Peter DeeleyI bet a lot of the home produced stuff was a flat session fee as the music library stuff was.What was the deal with Sioux?.Maybe a show us your Pama thread will flush a Volumes out.

    My memorys shot.....just dug it out.Had it after all.Agree with the poster above Storm Clouds is the better track.Neat wah wah guitar as well.

    A bit rude how he is talking to him but the singer's still got it.....would be taking the piss if he posted a cracked voice or fluffed lines.Bloody beards and glasses (clone!!!!).

    Got the I Believe In love somewhere............will dig it out. Wasn't SNB distributed by CBS.Theres a great stomper by Sue Wilshaw called Empty Sunday that must have got spins.

    Could you walk into any record shop and buy them then.Were they distributed countrywide and were they advertised as pressings.What about dealers at the venues....it's a minefield now and theres the internet and books.There must have been plenty people sold a pressing as an original at 4am with the dark lights.Were there boxes stating BOOTLEGS and another box ORIGINALS.Theres hundreds/thousands of them out there. They must have sold by the bucketload. No wonder people stuck to UK releases..

    A few more CBS including an early Pete Smith production...do you remember it Pete? and an early Ian Levine tailormade (Don Fardon demo)..........the Salena Jones is great.Will dig out some more. The Joe Benjamin is great and a uk black soul singer and produced by Rolf (bloody) Harris...my last copy went to Andy Lewis so maybe Weller will cover it....I couldn;t believe he did Tobacco Ash Sunday.Mickey Finn is far too nasty for here.. UPC was a subsiduary of CBS and recorded novelty records mostly...Barbara Windsor -what a Carry On etc but I know of 2 good sides Shakane-Find The Lady and this one.Love the logo on the Peaches And Herb....anyone know how many came out with this on.Looks as though they were going to run a soul series.
  12. Wiggyflat
    Will be digging the Us Stuff out.....this was the first pile.

    What are the Pornodisc and York 45's ....i'vea few on that York label (mostly glam though).Is this a British demo thread?
  14. Wiggyflat
    Ah... written by Johnny Goodison who did One Mistake for Deram.......I'm sure I passed this over as a glam/pop 45 ie in the same style as Harley Quinn a few weeks ago.How good is it?

    Were there sussed people who could differentiate boots from pressings at the time and were people bothered.Did the deejays from Wigan Torch etc play boots/emidiscs or were the boots just played at the backwater clubs ie the CD equivalent today.Were they frowned on?

    Had this one for years and always thought it had a northern feel to it.I hope this style of funk and tempo become popular. I always wondered why They Call Me Mr Tibbs was never a big northern record.The Fred Williams style don't float my boat.Ernie and the Top Notes just seems like run of the mill boogaloo....Maybe suitable for the rare soul scene. https://www.youtube.c...11F3F1E4637905F
  18. Wiggyflat
    I didn't realise I had that many!! Which ones are rare as demos (if any)
  19. Wiggyflat
    I've a Bim and Bam comedy Pama Lp and theres another one Rising Stars at Evening Time with a donkey on it which has a good jazz track on it.

    Richard Domar packs..........loads of the One Derful 45's,Ernie Marbray-Aint Nobodys business (multiple copies),Gene Woodbury- Thats Not Half Bad (multiple copies),Sugar Billy-Sugar Pie,Boss 4-Walkin By, Contenders-You Gotta Do,loads of Ric Tic stuff,loads of the Destiny reissue stuff and loads of what people now call "rare soul". Southern bluesy things ....and loads of copies of Otis Clay-Showplace along with the entire Alvin Cash and The Registers output . There were also loads of records with the name Hicky written on them in biro.

    Bought the Mystics recently..................the northern style funk I'm into are Seventh Wonder,Baby Boy,June Taylor-Jealous Heart,Ron Kenoly-Movin On,World Column,Artistics-Chase Is On,There Was A time and loads of others.........the deep funk getting plays now are more the uuuuugh ohhhh good god yawl jerky gritty funk.That witch record posted earlier is good.
  22. Wiggyflat
    Stomper Ian.....it had a Uk release on yellow MGM I think.Not heard the Carl Douglas version but Ive got Crazy Feeling on UK Go.....and Kung Fu Fighting...lol.The Rocky Roberts is really good (glad I bought the other copy and it may be on Durium as well) and the Dave Antony is a version of Eddie Regan...i was being dragged away by my host

    See my Turkish junkshop finds............you don't even have to go to the US.Most of the beat stuff I found will be ebayed to supplement the soul stuff.I might even sell the Linda Jones.It's easier now with the internet as you can actually listen to a lot more sounds and seek them out.Before the net it was just picking them out on spec or a TDK C90 tape your mate did.The only problem is how much to bribe your girlfriend/wife with when you want them few hours to wade through the stuff....even soundburgers are a lot cheaper.Even buy stuff you don't really like if you know you can move it on.
  24. Wiggyflat
    The Dave Anthony and the Bobby Freeman are Uk and US.........Got 2 copies of the Ebony Keyes and 2 of the Rocky Roberts which I bought blind.There wasn't much UK stuff but what there was were of the obscurer kind....had to wade through piles of Turkish 45's.As i said i bought about 100 beat/sike 45's as well.The Linda Jones was an oddball find tucked behind those Loma 45's but is a vinyl copy and in great shape.

    Theres a great picture I have from an Observer magazine article with a great pic of a load of lads with a record box open proudly displaying Debbie Flemings Long Gone....one of them is an asian feller.
