The first one in your list appears to be the same as Joe's copy, no arranger credit, deadwax info EC 5709 A @ 6 O'Clock, upside down circled BA @ 12 O'Clock position. "‹Now if we can get the info for the other three to confirm............ -
I'm waiting for someone to confirm the one with the arrangers credit whether it is an standard "E" or the E that looks like a backward three as in Joe's photo. Looks like the one without the arrangers credit.
-
It would appear the deadwax is different with a different font style for the "E" at the beginning of the run out details. One looking more like a backward 3 and the other being an actual "E". The difference we have or rather Joe is his has no arranger details yet the "E" looks like a backward 3.
-
Doesn't John have the info for arranger/no arranger the opposite way round to what we have here?
-
I have a Deon Jackson "That's What You Do To Me" somewhere. A mate has loads including some for records considered rare nowadays. I also have some templates somewhere if you want to type your own out.
-
It's the 80's release though isn't it, flip side to "The. World Is X Rated", one with synthesiser overdubs, totally ruined.
-
Think so but I lost my internet signal briefly and only caught a bit as I got back on line, perils of being on the move I guess.
-
Such sad news. R.I.P. Keith.
-
I've just read on Discogs that the arranger one is a definite E and not a backward 3 like the one without the arranger.
-
Is the E more like a backward 3?
-
Hopefully someone will confirm the matrix for the one with the arranger credit but sure they are the same.
-
Do you mean the first press without arranger credit? this one.... and this is the one with credit for the arranger....

The Complete Fame Singles. Vol 1 - 1964-1967 Three words synonymous with Southern Soul are Muscle Shoals and Fame. Florence Alabama Music Enterprises or simply FAME to all its fans, was founded by Rick Hall, Billy Sherrill and Tom Stafford in Florence, Alabama before moving to where it still stands in the small backwater town of Muscle Shoals when Hall split from the others. It went on to record many hits by many R&B, Rock and Pop superstars for many labels as well as it’s own. For the last few years Ace/Kent Records have been delving deep into the archives of FAME to bring some fantastic compilations covering Southern Soul great such as George Jackson, Clarence Carter, Jimmy Hughes and there, many unreleased tracks have also been unearthed and included on the various compilations. Now we have the first installment of The Complete Fame Singles with volume one covering the years 1964-7, both A & B sides are featured, that’s 26 releases, 52 tracks, over two CD’s. Jimmy Hughes kicks of the compilation with the Southern Soul great “Steal Away” and is by far the most prolific during the years covered by this release with no less than eleven 45’s featured. Other favourites of Hughes, especially for UK collectors would be Neighbor, Neighbor and I’m A Man Of Action. Other stand out Hughes tracks for me are “Goodbye Mr Lover Goodbye”, “You Can’t Believe Everything” & “Time Will Bring You Back”. Other tracks that appeal to UK collectors and in particular the club scene are James Barnett “Keep On Talking”, Art Freeman’s “Slippin' Around With You” and June Conquest’s “Almost Persuaded” with all three becoming classics on the UK Northern Soul scene over the years. Southern Soul lovers though are treated to some gems. Clarence Carter with “I Stayed Away Too Long” & “Don’t Make My Baby Cry” my picks of the six sides on offer. Arthur Conley has two 45’s featured with “I’m Gonna Forget About You” being the pick for me. Whilst James Barnett’s “Keep On Talking” is probably the most sought after release from this compilation due to it’s success on the underground UK Northern Soul scene the flip “Take A Good Look” is an often overlooked slice of Southern Soul. Dan Penn as well as his contribution to Fame through his songwriting chips in with two 345’s of his own with “Let Them Talk” being my favourite off the four sides on offer. Spooner Oldham, Dan Penn’s song writing partner and a huge part of the Fame Story has one release featured here and is in all fairness probably doesn’t appeal to Southern Soul lovers along with the likes of The Villagers (one release) and Terry Woodford (two releases), but then again that is to be expected with any label let alone one that is still finding its way as a label in its own right. Overall the compilation is a must for lovers of Southern Soul, The Fame Label and Studio has played (and continues to play) a significant part in the history of Southern Soul music and is getting the recognition it deserves via the releases from Kent and the recent Film Documentary “Muscle Shoals” from director Greg 'Freddy' Camalier.

Can anyone verify it was played at Wigan? I've yet to see anything conclusive to,say it was? Rod didn't seem to think he had the tapes from Robb K then? I'm sure it was said it was played at some venue in Manchester before Stafford?
-
The two 70's ones are from same plates aren't they, only immediate visual difference being the arranger credit or lack of it. Aren't the matrix the same?
-
They were from the 90's though I think? I remember sorting the remainder into sets, 8 I think in each. Only a few full sets left, the rest missing mainly Suspicion.
-
Marvin was 1965, its in the info I posted.

I'd got one of Steve Coogan's characters in my head for some reason.
-
Pretty sure Elijah said that was done without permission, the only legit ones being the ones he controls or controlled, will have to read through his rants again.
-
That's the first without the arranger Steve. These were the one's that were said by Cole done for family and friends and not for distribution. The arranger copies are the ones Cole diid and are the only legitimately distributed copies and are therefore the original, the original are boots, Cole's words As far as I am aware these two are the same mix/take.

Just trying to think who Virgil reminds me of...one of the comedians, hair very similar and a mouth full of teeth???????
