Revised discography that @Tlscapital Comp’ed on another topic. Thought it best to include here…. Only Walter Smith as original member of the Admirations kept on to do "his things" in music. And pretty good to say the least. But that's whole other chapter or even another story further down the line. Beginning also by tying the Walter & the Admirations legacy to him. - JUNE 1967- The Admirations 'my admiration for you' on Paree (Otis Hayes & JimmyJones working too for the One-Derful group) - JULY* (?) 1967 - The Aspirations 'you left me' on Peaches (with the PEACHES logo to the RIGHT first then repress with the logo to the LEFT) (Eddie Silvers working for One-Derful group + same fonts typos as for the One-Derful presses) - SEPTEMBER* 1967 - The Admirations 'wait till I get to know you' on Onder-Full (Eddie Silvers for One-Derful group + same fonts typos as for the Peaches presses) - JANUARY 1968 - The Admirations 'all for you' on One-Derful (NO MORE EDDIE SILVERS !!! + same fonts typos for the Peaches presses) - FEBRUARY (?) 1968 - The Admirations 'you left me' on Peaches (Eddie Silvers revenge record done alone + re-release under their corrected name of ADMIRATIONS (mismatching typo) to cash on it after being cast aside + similar typos for the credits using different fonts in places than for both the Aspirations releases) And a possible correction to the timeline courtesy of @The Yank

They would test the lacquers, they wouldn’t do the whole process. If the lacquer is good the rest will but that is why a run of test presses is done. I have posted the full process step by step previously on here.

This is further down the process than metal mastering. At this stage which is clearly manufacture, a handful of test presses would be done but generally they are the complete disc, exactly the same as the actual finished product but with an in house or blank label.

Or a cock up in the process

But a test press is exactly the same as the actually issue/demo press but they usually have in house label unless blanks bought in.

Pretty sure Des got it confirmed from one of the Barons since this topic. It’s actually written by one of them.

It is actually the Barons of Soul

Don't think so, there is a few label variations though

I can bring my Tascam thingy me job

This week we see the trio from The Gathering (soul do not the horror film), Luci, Jim and Geese giving us two hours of their brand of Northern, R&B and Funk.

Ticket booked

The master is stamped or etched, from that the mother is made and from the mother the stamper

Can’t you feel it? If its lumpy then its raised The stamp doesn’t look quite right to me but hard to tell from a picture

Is it a raised stamp or indented

Maybe it is an elaborate fake, someone going to the trouble of a stamp? It is certainly a strange one.

@Guyh

Will see if I can get over

The J is usually to denote a demo?

NO not after a sound file, just then info

I was told it was due out mid to late June, again at the mercy of the plants

The one posted twice is Michigan Move. The video and the first snippett is The Moods @Pumpkinseed Carl will have all the info on the Moods

Guy Hennigan found Michigan Move, it had no title nothing, he found the master tapes from which a decent cut was mixed and put to acetate (with Chris King). Think that is the story from memory. It was a monster spin at Stafford. Phrenetics Band (as it became known) along with Pyramid was indeed a Uk thing.

No one knows who The Band is behind Michigan Move or its real name. In Guys words “Michigan Move came off an unlabelled, unnamed, no details at all master-tape. It could have been done at Golden World privately, only because there was a pile of Golden World master-tapes with it, but it was in a different tape box”.

Didn’t realise there was a reissue
