Ive got all those Andy, I could go home rich...😂

brilliant show, a lot of 'stimulants' this time out from Unnamed friends! laughing

really...? how come they always hit 3 figres, why not just 50 or 75 quid.... well we know why because 'Money' has always been an overiding part of record collecting, which at its silliest see's folks paying hundreds more for a different coloured labels, so there you go, fiull circle...

Thats an excellent track that Bobby Harden, I would add Oliver James - One and Only / Colemine as another... in fact I thnik Oliver James is a better track. the OVO thang was always daft, but then record collecting is daft isnt it... I sold most of my 100 Club Anni 45's some years ago, just kept my favorites, but I have to say I was made up when Paramount four came out on Kent select, I went to that nighter, so why would I pay 100 odd quid when I can get it for a tenner? Kent Select does not seem to get the attention of greedy sellers, except for Darrow Fletcher - Love Is My Secret Weapon, so you are always safe with Kent records. It does seem though if you miss these new releases at $10 bucks you could have to fork out, and if you do, and then it gets a run in grren and purple vinyl, well you have been 'had' havent you... that I dont like, so I dont buy em at inflated prices... good post and a subject that knarks allot of folks off....

Hi folks, anybody got a spare copy of Manifesto that covered the big do at the Q Club in B'ham, when Edwin Star, Steve Mancha, JJ Barnes Played`? would be late 9ts, long time ago now, I cant remember the exact year. They ran a double page spread with a wide shot of JJ on stage... Mal

It's 2022 and Ive just come across this track again on my iTunes library, my question about what it is, is answered above, but Id like to know who owns a copy of the demo out there, is it a one off? mal

Picked up a copy on the Omnibus stand at London Book Fair week b4 last, it's a good read 🙂

I think Emma's first single was her best, and because of when it was released, mid covid lockdown, reminds me of that time, I was religiously listing to Eddie Pillars show on a Thursday, I still do, and I have to say his show and that track were a life line to normality... We shouldn’t be too harsh on Emma's music, sure it's poppy, but I can highlight far worse... good luck to her, this track isnt for me, but I hope it sells bucket loads...

Is this taken from the acetate that came up on Ebay some years back? think there may have been a few copies, or discs with either all or some of the tracks on there..

Wow, thats alot... its a semi rare 45, never liked 'Hey Girl', but the flip 'Need You so Bad' is a serious bit of Soul...

which Carroll Jones was it, Need You so Bad / Hey Girl or the other one?

Ted Wilson - This is Northern Soul! uurrr no, This is Ted Wilson and he sings out of tune... I'll give the backing is good...

also, has anybody ever seen Australian copies of : GLADYS KNIGHT AND THE PIPS - EVERY BEAT OF MY HEART/ROOM IN YOUR HEART / EMBER 8315 MICKEY STEVENSON - I NEED YOU SO/I'M ON MY WAY BACK TO YOU / EMBER 8337

Hi folks, I need the following Australian W&G releases, must be very very good condition, original W&G sleeve always prefered. The Soul-Jers - Crazy Little Things / WG-2605 Joe Hinton - You Know it Ain't Right / WG-1630 and O.V. Wright - Love the Way You Love / CBS BA-221765 If you have them, pls do drom me a pm. Best Mal

as it says, Hanks reissued tracks on Spartan such as 'The Hawk' that was originally on MAHs.. there were not many on Spartan were there, its simply a comparison of thr type of label ken. Anyhow this looks to be another painful post, lets ditch it, Ive better things to do mate..

Just listening to a Roscoe Shelton track on Tee Jay Records, 45 Cat and Discogs have this as a child label to Ref-O-Ree, Tee Jay is Ted Jarrett, so I guess this is like Mike Hank's Sparton lablel, a place he put out songs written and procduced by himself. 'What Is It, Baby' is a good track too. I wonder what other little labels Ted put out, and are there anymore releases on Tee Jay, looks to only be two on Discogs / 45 cat. Freddie Waters A: Love Is A Two Way Thing B: I've Got A Good Love Tee Jay [Ted Jarrett] USATJ87007"0 Roscoe Shelton A: Worry B: What Is It, Baby? Tee Jay [Ted Jarrett] USATJ87017"0

made me chuckle 🙂

That’s interesting El Zarape was a Texas label, they put out all manor of tex : mex music including some nice artists from Panama. Piotr On here sells allot of that stuff.

I'm no Soul Gannet like you lot, but the text is the immediate giveaway to my eyes, that is not a sixties typeface is it...or is it? as Chalky says its actually a pretty easy spot when you look close. This all reminds me of that Johnny Watson - It's Better To Cry track that fooled a big DJ and lots of folks, and the type on that label looked immediately wrong as well, think that may have come via John also?? dunno long time ago now. You lot have seen enough original vinyl to know the difference...trust your eyes..!! and to prove the point

Think this is alot rarer on West Coast 45, they are all vinyl aren't they. I did have a nice Ruby Winters - Better West coat Styrene with MR stamp, that did look nice 🙂 long time ago, £15 from Mick Smith, them was the Dayz...

I like his RCA side "You still got me" was a Steve Plumb suggestion, good record.

Just ordered one, I was very impressed with the YT clip, quality music, which is what we like. What did strike me was how young these dudes were, I must be old to notice that, Soul source must be giving me greay hair! anyhow Dean if your reading this, well done mate, another great project. Malcolm
