Could be one of those ultra violet light markers

Smith Brothers is probably one that was over pressed illegally. I don’t remember titles appearing in quantity on the open market before the Nancy Wilcox 36th anniversary 45. Certainly don’t recall any titles like those Woodbutcher linked too, Paramount Four and Milton Bennett.

They would press what Ace/Kent requested, if the plant damaged or broke some then they would press the amount to replace.

They simply pressed more than they should have done, gave Ady his allocation and sold the rest themselves

They aren’t bootlegs or counterfeits in reality. Tis very naughty what they did and probably illegal. How would we know what was done? well certain titles began to appear in regularity, far more than anniversary attendees off loading their copies. The two I mentioned above are the ones I first remember appearing like that.

More recent releases from Kent, Izipho Soul, Epsilon Records, Soul Direction & Soul 4 Real along with some forthcoming from Riker Records & Soul Junction. Thrown in for good measure are some favourites from the collection. Dawson Road - The Love You Gove To Me - Riker Records Duke Turner & The Chi-Towns - Friendship or Friends - Soul Junction Richard Temple - That Beatin’ Rhythm - Kent Repro Valentinos - I’ve Got Love For You - Soul 4 Real The Soul Interiors - The Inside Guys - Kent Tearra - Just Loving You - Forthcoming Soul Junction Exception To The Rule - The Sweeter The Juice - Izipho Eugene Williams & The Was - I’m Glad I Met You Girl - Epsilon The Decisions - The Pimp And The Hustlers - Soul Direction Miss Louistine - Extra-Extra - Kent Duke Turner & The Chi-Towns - (Let Me Be Your) Baby Sitter - Soul Junction 87th & Broadway - Instant Replay - Soul Harmony Exception to The Rule - Angel Inn Disguise - Izipho Lenny & The Illustrators - Coz I’m Ready - Riker Records The DC Blossoms - This Is Your Last Chance - Soul Harmony Candi Staton - I Can’t Stop Being Your Fool - Soul 4 Real The Decisions - Sweet Virginia - Soul Direction Johnnie Taylor - A Love To Call Mine - Malaco The Decisions - Color Me Blue - Soul Direction Candi Staton - You Bet Your Sweet Love - Soul 4 Real Valentinos - I’ve Got A Girl - Soul 4 Real Gene Chandler - Love Is Growing Deeper - Black Tiger Records Duke Turner & The Chi-Towns - Give Me Some Sugar Baby - Soul Junction Teeah Louis - You Happened To me - Forthcoming Soul Junction Carl Henderson - How Deep Does It Go - GRP The Exclusive - I Still Love You - Soul Harmony Larry Sanders - I’m In Love - Soul Harmony Kenneth Wright - The Souls Of Black Folk - Kent Jimmy Cobb (with Marilyn Redfield) - So That Nobody Else Can Hear - Contempo Vibrato

I didn't think the scam had been go on for as long as some of those discs but he has sold multiple copies so that would set alarm bells ringing. I certainly don't recall extra copies of say Milton Bennett kicking around, there was no copies about when I sold mine.

Two of the offending discs are the 35th and 36th Anniversary 45s along with the 42nd in the above look.

It wasn't the over pressed copies Ady marked, it was the ones Kent gave out at the anniversary Ady marked. Other than that they are identical pressed at the same time.

It's like other foreign imprints on Tamla Motown or Motown rather than Gordy.

Obviously doesn't get out much

Saw a release on the LP from Albino Music Trust last year.

although it sounds familiar I haven't a clue, sorry.

Have you a link to the video

It is unreleased. The tapes were amongst the Onderful tapes Secret Stash had, it's not a Onderful recording so couldn't be released apparently. Tis fantastic
