  4. There must be around 300 copies of that. It is as you say though, spend time around the records, lists, boxes, whatever you can and it will sink in. But that is the trouble today, they all do it from their armchair and they don't see what is about. They pay 100s, 1000s sometimes for records we used to see in every (other) box. Knowledge is king and you can't stop learning in this game.

  6. Press Release: The New Creation “The Fish Song/Elijah Knows” SJ541 Release Date: Monday 28thJanuary 2019 The New Creation were a five piece ensemble made up of family members Robert James Randle (Aka Rasheed Shakoor Sr) his son Keith Randle (aka Rasheed Shakoor Jr) their nephew/cousin Mel Houston. Mel’s stepfather William Cooper (aka Wali Ali) and a fifth unrelated member only remembered as Wayne E-2X. The creator of The New Creation was William Cooper a guitarist who had previously worked with Norman Whitfield at Motown and had toured with The Undisputed Truth and The Jackson Five. He had also been employed by HB Barnum as part of Areatha Franklin’s touring band an association that would be relevant in The New Creation’s story. The concept of The New Creation began sometime during 1973 when Robert James Randle penned the song “The Fish Song” ( credited as Robert 51-X) and William Cooper penned the song “Elijah Knows” amongst other material that never really got past the demo stage. Adding teenage cousins Mel Houston (Bass Guitar) and Keith Randle (Conga drums) and Wayne E-2X , The New Creation began performing through their affiliation to the African America political and religious movement , The Nation Of Islam with no lesser a person than Muhammad Ali, as a support act to his Celebrity Boxing Promotion Tours. They also toured as a support act to one of Philadelphia’s most well known soul groups, The Delfonic’s. During the summer of 1974, under the tutelage of HB Barnum, The New Creation entered the Devonshire Recording Studio’s in North Hollywood to lay down the basic tracks of the above two songs with HB later adding the horn arrangements. The group pressed 2000 copies (plus a later 500) on their own Salaam label. They initially began to seek out radio airplay, unfortunately this wasn’t to be too forthcoming as the majority of radio stations considered “The Fish Song” to have been recorded as a commercial song , (which the group had no intention of) and demanded extortionate fees to promote. Therefore The New Creation were left with no choice but to promote their own product which they did by mail order and appearances throughout Los Angeles, Chicago, Denver (Colorado), Cleveland and New York selling their 45, for $5 each complete with a homemade promotional brochure. With the groups growing popularity came the need for more rehearsals which sometimes lasted till three in the morning the teenage members of the group parents feared this would compound upon their High School work and so pulled them out of the group. They were replaced briefly by older members before the group broke up for good. The New Creation’s “The Fish Song/Elijah Knows” is now a highly regarded and sort after 45 with sweet and harmony soul collector’s in Europe and it’s native USA.

  7. Soul Junction Records begin 2019 with a collaboration with The New Creations and a reissue of their obscure early 70s 45 "The Fish Song". A track produced by non other than H.B. Barnum but destined for failure by the demands of the radio stations. Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full
  8. For sure, as I said he was working for Motown back then. It wasn't him if memory serves that played titbit either Andy Lee or John Poole???? But I am certain it was before the CD set.
  9. I always thought the 1932 mix is the tougher one. Always seemed to be the harder one to get.
  10. Pretty sure Chris was playing this before the box set, sure I heard it at the Hollingwood Hotel where I was a resident. Chris had access to the vaults then doing those CDs with the unissued stuff on??
  11. First played by Chris King, not covered up to my knowledge. You could tell who it was straight away.
  12. I got one half hour or so ago, hopefully.
  13. Its updated when the invoice for your fees is paid so we will see
  14. according to discogs it has NEVER sold
  15. If it did sell then my copy can go on there
  16. No sales history so presume he removed it, one for sale £156
  17. No that was a couple or three years later, 1970 when they evolved into Parliament and Funkadelic
  18. Which other group name?
  19. They can have mine for 200, bargain
  20. Plus those who ignore the download . I would have the Lp if it was all their stuff over any 45, hopefully an Lp later this year.
  21. There is a later one on darker green if memory serves
  22. The A certainly looks like the A of ARP but on the ipad it looks like a B that follows.
  23. The other stamp, not ARP is it?
  24. The scene doesn’t revolve around djs and I know it seems there are more djs than collectors etc but there isn’t. More interested in this record than the northern scene as well.
