Just dropping in on this thread, anybody about in New York tonight, fancy a beer? Mal :-))

Strangely I'd heard this first last week, I don't watch terrestrial to so I hadn't seen the advert, got my copy from the numero website, all of 7 bucks.... Think the post cost me more...?

The Miracles 'Save Me', is absolutely brilliant!

absolutely no appetite for Golden State Soul then.. oh well I thought it was interesting... lets talk about Frank Wilson...

Going through some old CD's to make sure I have everything loaded up, just love the 'Golden State Soul' CD from Kent, here's a few sides I have, anybody got more that were not on the CD? before anybody says anything, I adapted the Variations scan to fit the unreleased songs from the group on the CD, just as album art...:-))

You mean a yellow / blue / black copy Gaz?

I'm with seb, brilliant song, you can almost taste the studio... not sure about the advert, and not sure who gets paid? mal

cheers Seb, spoke to Matt, and I'll deffo being going down there on the wed, I'm there for two weeks on business, so might do it the next week as well, wally if your about, be good to hook up, I'll pm you.. going to do a tour of obscure record label addresses, just cause i can... deffo Falton Street in Brooklyn, see the site of the old 521 Club... any other suggestions from members, guess allot of buildings are no longer recognisable, but some maybe... Brill Building of course, goes without saying...:-)) Mal;_)

Hi all, anybody know of any Soul Nights in New York, any going on in the next 3 weeks? mal:_)

Assumed it was west coat one Robb, I don't always remember the finer details of names, but I try my best... :-)))

Going to give it a go, have all the Lp comps that came out, they are fabulous...But this has tons not on that series... especially interested in in hearing the Marvellows track Ady Croasdell mentioned... great label, and fabulous music, what's not to like folks...

Nice NZ copy of Jimmy Smith - The Cat, notice the Aussie import stamp....

well that makes Leroy sign his initials backwards on this copy... that said love signatures by the artists, but prefer them on the sleeve..

absolute beautiful track.. got that certain... "Smile"! and that SAX break!!! :-))) worth 70-100, paid £70 for a mint issue, love Brunswick demos and Issues, they just feel good dont they...

Margie Joseph - One more Chance, the perfect crossover record for me.... That big list is allot I'll have to look again, come back with some additions, but how's about Midwest Francise on MCA?

Cheers Robb, I'll check out that thread on SDF... so the label was short lived, and I guess as always with these small labels they are set up for a single group or singer, I guess the Superlatives in this case...

Updated, Nice track, my favorite is 'Won't You Please Be My Baby' which I guess is a bit more in the Northern Mid tempo vein... all good though.. here's the Johnny Adams first and second release...

Some more related scans..

ok, that ties this one in, given the look, release number, and sound of this track, would folk agree this is an early effort before A.Abney / Labney got his label launched proper? Anybody guess who A.Abney might be? Cheers Chalky
