  1. That's ok then
  2. Also check out "I want to make you happy" on one of her EP's...this track was originally done by Margaret Mandolph on the B side of Something Beautiful...really nice beat ballad. Also on an EP, a track called Magic Garden.
  3. I agree - I'd ask 125 for it
  4. It was covered as 'Loaded Dice' and played a good 2 months before it was released...never caught on though.
  5. No, I meant she recorded it as an audio tape, not video! I've got about 12 hours of old TOTP which I edited down from probably 50 episodes, mainly punk/new wave stuff 77-82, oh and The Tams doing Hey Girl Don't Bother Me when one of the members gets snatched off the stage half way through for forgetting what he's supposed to be doing
  6. No, magnetic tape became very expensive in the early 70's so they started a procedure of wiping of practically all entertainment programs which they deemed wouldn't have been of historical value. For instance, I have a reel to reel recording of a Top Of The Pops from 1967 which my ex wife did as a child, it features Pink Floyd doing See Emily Play, this doesn't exist anywhere at the BBC. Almost all of the 60's and early 70's top of the pops have gone forever.
  7. As far as I know, nobody has that footage and when the BBC ran all their TOTP's in 93-95 on UK Gold, that one never aired. Jethro and a couple of the Dudley lads were on it I think.
  8. Andy, and anyone else, best just email me, pete.smith@freeuk.com cheers Pete
  9. Of course it is! I knew I'd had it before. Spot on mate, thank you very much, it was doing my head in
  10. Really old oldie... "Our love is on the way and I can't take it, I've gotta make it" and also has the line "You've been cheating" (not the Impressions) This is on one of those reel to reel tapes of the R&B show from 1971 - this record used to get played in Mr M's...possibly blue eyed...
  11. I think you mean the Temptations Story and the Five Heartbeats? Removed. Apologies Mike.
  12. Will do...
  13. Sonny is Sonny Threatt who is also THE NOMADS of Something's Bad fame.
  14. I just make them when anyone asks for them Paul
  15. Any way you like mate - I take credit cards here...or paypal, cheque, whatever

IT LOOKS AS IF IT WAS FILMED AT WIGAN CASINO - PEOPLE SAY IT WASN'T, BUT IF NOT THEY'VE BUILT AN EXACT REPLICA - AND FEATURES A GREAT SOUNDTRACK CULLED FROM GRAPEVINE 45'S. THERE'S OTHER EXTRA CLIPS ON THE DVD TO MAKE THE RUNNING TIME 3 HOURS. 4) Soul A-Go-Go FANTASTIC FOOTAGE FROM 1964 UPWARDS. ALL ARE COMPLETE CLIPS, MOST WITH INTROS FROM THE SHOWS' HOSTS, AND OVER HALF ARE ACTUAL LIVE VOCALS SO YOU CAN HEAR 'ALTERNATE' TAKES OF DON'T PITY ME AND YOU'RE GONNA LOVE MY BABY. ALL FOOTAGE IS FROM "HULLABALOO" AND "HULLABLOO A-GO-GO" UNLESS STATED AND IS PERFECT PICTURE QUALITY. EXTRAS ARE VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT. IF YOU SEE COPIES OF THIS AROUND THEY ARE ALL PIRATED FROM THIS ORIGINAL COPY.

TO COINCIDE WITH MOTOWN'S 40TH ANNIVERSARY, ABC COMISSIONED THIS DOCUMENTARY AND IT IS EXTREMELY THOROUGH, TRACING THE HISTORY OF MUSIC IN DETROIT PRE-MOTOWN, THROUGH THE FORMATIVE MOTOWN ERA, THE GOLDEN AGE OF THE 60'S, AND RIGHT UP TO DATE. THE BEST THING ABOUT THIS DOCUMENTARY IS THAT IT APPEARS THAT THE GUYS WHO MADE THE DOCUMENTARY ACTUALLY LIKE THE MUSIC, AND THEREFORE THEY HAVE DONE A FANTASTIC JOB IN TRACKING DOWN ARCHIVE FOOTAGE. I WOULD SAY THAT I HAVE NEVER SEEN AT LEAST 70% OF THE FOOTAGE ON THIS TAPE. PLUS ALL OF THE MAJOR (AND MANY OF THE MINOR) PLAYERS ARE INTERVIEWED AT LENGTH, INCLUDING PROBABLY THE MOST CANDID INTERVIEWS WITH BERRY GORDY TO DATE. IF IT SOUNDS LIKE I'M HYPING THIS PROGRAM UP, THEN JUST WATCH IT YOU'LL SEE IT'S EVERYTHING I SAY IT IS. TRUST ME - IT'S FANTASTIC! IT RUNS FOR AN AMAZING 3 HOURS, AND IS IN STEREO. THE PICTURE IS EXCELLENT CONSIDERING IT HAS BEEN TRANSFERRED FROM THE USA NTSC FORMAT. Motown 40 Narrated By Diana Ross Including Classic Archive Footage From Martha & Vandellas, Miracles, Marvelettes, Little Stevie Wonder, Contours, Supremes, Temptations, Jackson 5, B.B. King, Aretha Franklin, Jackie Wilson, Mary Wells, Marvin Gaye, Jr Walker, Velvelettes, Kim Weston, Gladys Knight & The Pips..The List Is Endless Interviews With Scores Of Artists, Writers, Producers, Musicians, Dj's, Tv Hosts Etc, Hundreds Of Rare Black And White And Colour Photographs And So On.. 6) Best Of The Beat THIS FOOTAGE FROM THE BEAT IS ALL TAKEN FROM THE FANTASTIC LOCAL TEXAS TV SHOW BROADCAST FROM 1965 TO EARLY 1967. IN MANY CASES IT IS THE ONLY FOOTAGE AVAILABLE OF THESE ARTISTS. MY ORIGINAL COMPILATION HAD TO BE DUBBED FROM A MASTER VHS COPY WHICH IN TURN WAS RECORDED FROM THE SEPARATE ORIGINALS, THEREFORE YOU WERE AUTOMATICALLY TWO AWAY FROM THE MASTER TAPE. THIS TIME I'VE RECORDED IT STRAIGHT FROM THE MASTER ONTO DVD, AND THEN COPIED THE DVD, LOSING NO QUALITY WHATSOEVER. NOTE THAT A TIME CODE RUNS THROUGHOUT THESE CLIPS, AFTER A WHILE YOU GET USED TO IT AND DON'T NOTICE IT. THE QUALITY IS VG. VERY FEW PICTURE BREAKS AND FULL COLOUR, BUT DUE TO THE SOURCE AND THE FACT IT WAS TRANSFERRED OVER FROM NTSC, DO NOT EXPECT DIGITAL QUALITY. IT IS PERFECTLY GOOD THOUGH AND IF ANYONE HAD TOLD ME THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO WATCH THE LIKES OF MAMIE GALORE, GERRI HALL, JAMO THOMAS AND THE DOLLS PERFORMING THEIR NORTHERN CLASSICS ON MY OWN TV, I'D HAVE SAID THEY WERE MAD!

THEY RUN FOR A TOTAL OF 13 HOURS! THEY CONTAIN DEEP SOUL BALLADS, BLUES, EVEN LOUIS JORDAN! PRICE FOR THIS SET £50 (THE ORIGINAL VHS SET COST A LOT MORE THAN THIS!). EMAIL ME FOR A LIST OF CONTENTS. 7) THE T.A.M.I. - T.N.T SHOW 1964-65 INCREDIBLE CONCERT RECORDED FOR US TV FEATURING AN AMAZING LINE-UP, CO-PRODUCED BY PHILL SPECTOR - WORTH IT JUST FOR THE JAMES BROWN CLIPS APRROX 90 MINUTES Chuck Berry / James Brown / Ray Charles / Bo Diddley / Marvin Gaye / Gerry & The Pacemakers / Lesley Gore / Jan & Dean / Smokey Robinson & The Miracles / The Rolling Stones / The Ronettes / The Supremes / Ike & Tina Turner 8) ASK 9) TEEN TOWN 1965 U.S. TV show. A very special episode of this interracial, Detroit- based, 60s teen dance show that salutes the Motown Record Corporation through words, music and film!

Early Motown live! Very interesting to see these artists rough around the edges "before they went to "charm school" and became polished and sophisticated. Marvin Gaye, the Supremes, Little Stevie Wonder (12-yrs. old), the Contours, Smokey Robinson & the Miracles, Martha Reeves & the Vandellas, the Marvelettes, Mary Wells, the Four Tops, the Temptations and others. The classic 1960s soul and rhythm & blues revue! 1 MARTHA & THE VANDELLAS - COME AND GET THESE MEMORIES 2 THE CONTOURS - DO YOU LOVE ME 3 THE SUPREMES - MY HEART CAN'T TAKE IT NO MORE 4 MARVIN GAYE - STUBBORN KIND OF FELLOW 5 MARVIN GAYE - HITCH HIKE 6 LITTLE STEVIE WONDER - FINGERTIPS 7 THE MARVELETTES - PLEASE MR POSTMAN 8 THE MARVELETTES - STRANGE I KNOW 9 THE MARVELETTES - LOCKING UP MY HEART 10 MARY WELLS - TWO LOVERS 11 MARY WELLS - BYE BYE BABY 12 THE MIRACLES - YOU REALLY GOT A HOLD ON ME 13 THE MIRACLES - SHOP AROUND 10) NIGHT TRAIN 1965 U.S. TV show.

I'll add some extras to this DVD as it's only a short film, approx 45 minutes 13) ASK _______________________________________________________________
  17. I KNow You Got Soul...hang on, check this out, hard to believe this was played on radio one but..nb you only really need to hear the last 10 seconds of this clip
  18. Hopefully this will bring back some memories from over 33 years ago...
  19. Wish I'd never sold that album The greatest vocalist (link)
  20. The Soul Of Stax - 1994 documentary - 55 minutes History of the label plus interviews with Isaac Hayes, Rufus Thomas, Booker T. Jones, Steeve Cropper, Jim Stewart, Marvell Thomas, William Bell, The Memphis Horns, Jerry Wexler, Marvis Stapples, Don Davis. DVD £5 contact me by PM if interested
  21. Yeah they are - 100% certain way of getting an original - same as Crazy Baby...
  22. This is all very confusing. Some originals have LW on them, some don't. Some have the dip, some don't. I buy every copy of this I see because I honestly believe that all of the copies that Soul Bowl imported in 77-78 were originals. I sell every one as original.
