The above is an original, the white one sounds like the boot, should be Styrene... How much do you want to sell it for, the original that is Hottwax? Mal.C.

Hi, Can anybody give me more info on the Musette label out of San Diego / San Francisco? As far as I can see there are 2 addresses on various Discs and at least 3-4 numbering systems on a variety of coloured labels. I've compiled what I know below, can anybody add to this, and perhaps gives dates to the various numbers and locations of the label? Sonny Craver seems to be involved in allot of the tracks as either a singer or producer and I was told was also an Actor ... was Musette his Label? Sonny Craver - I'm no Fool / Musette MR-102 June Jackson - You're Welcome / Bottoms Up / Musette MR-112 Lennie Groves - Bye Bye Baby / A Million tears Ago / Musette 65-11 A Mickie Champion -What Good Am I / The Hurt Still Lingers On / Musette 76- 9151A Arlene Williams - Duck all Over Town / Musette 6516 Garnett Sykes -Longer Than Forever / Go Go Girl / Musette 13 Ervin Rucker -She's Alright / Kids Together / Musette 14 There is also an Unreleased track listed on a Major Dealers site which does have a Cat Number but I cant see in the Scan. Unknown Artist - You know How Love Is / Musette It's certinally an intresting label, and now I'm hooked... Lol :fool: Mal.C.

Errrrr, wasn't this done by Ruby and the Romantics on Kapp & Maxine Brown on Wand?? I recon Gale Garnett is a White singer and IMO not in the League of the others.. as for a male group version, never heard of one.. I did get this track By R & Romantics on Australian Release a month or so ago, which looks Damm good!!! Mal.C.

If you did not know already there`s a Version on the Lp of, "Sweet Memories" as "Robert Tanner" was one of the lead singers of "The New Sound" group Your Joking, so thats the same as Sweet Memories - Robert Tanner / Megaton?? Wow..I was looking to hear that track and now I know why..you live and learn.. Have both Billy, but the P-Vine copy is in the Uk, I'm in sydney.. If you can wait till Nov I'd sell it..The Turbo copy I'd never sell.. Mal.C.

Christ you got slaughtered there Buey!!! Still got that Ex copy of Colt 45's??? If John Manship & Lew Stanley can take the piss why cant some of the Collectors, its only worth what people will pay for it!!! And just to prove a point I bought a Stratoliners from Lew Stanley last year for $20 USD.. 100 quid my A*** Lew stick it up your A** Mal.C.

I want Cynthia Sheeler Dont we all, seen 3-4 Issues of this of late, not as rare as people make out, dont you think? Mal.C.

I did a label listing and review of this label for my one and only stab at a Soul Zine back in 1999, entitled "Soul Train" sold 400 odd mainly in the South of England. There are loads of great tracks on Port, plus allot the Funk guys play on our show here in Sydney most notibally "Drums for sale" by Jimmy Maye & the soul breeze, which I now love. There is also a re Issue of one of the first Impressions tracks feat the Brooks Brothers of Brute fame, I think... "Listen" put on Port, got an earlier release on Banderra. Worst track on Port with out a doubt The Soothers, easily one of the most overratted tracks that I still see go for way way too much. Other standouts, Curtis Blandon, Intregues Daisy Burris Robert Neal Carol fran Big Maybelle, Johnny Newbag F*** Great track Impressions (from the earlier 7000 series) Chris towns unit The jets Kath & the candlers Clovers Gees King Coleman Mal.C.

QUOTE] What end? Its deffo a different Mix, that WHIIRRRRRR WRRIRRRR sounds different, more pronounced on the 45, perhaps thats the effect of STEREO!! Your right " What end" ? --- Pete S " I sold Pete Warner for £10 " Sheer Class!! I can imagine how he said that as well, as if 10 pound was not worthy of even mentioning in regard to a seventies track, you keep selling them 7ts tarcks cheap you grumpy old yam yam!! Lol Mal.C.

Delilah Moore - " It takes Love" - Root Root? Mal.C.

Paid 60 quid for mine of Pete Smith some time ago, but have seen this for 100 plus on revue.. Notice the released 45 is a different mix than appeared on The Kent comp "Brainstormers" better on 45 I recon. top class northern soul track that I never bore of hearing.. Mal.C.
