have a read >>HERE<< to see how it's made, click on the further links as you read through, very interesting

Originals stamped with the Frankford Wayne matrix.

I've all Ady Pierce's old lists, some Andy Dyson list from early 90's. Might have one of Domars catalogues somewhere plus other odds and sods

Sure Pretty Boy came out on Calamo as well Dora Hall Website Here

sent you a PM Ted.

Wasn't this first played by John Vincent way before Keb, Wigan maybe? Keb later reviving it at Stafford. Can't remember what it was covered as though??? Was it covered?

Original studio acetates not made for DJ use either.

Not 100% but last two from same seller on e-bay??? Neither reached reserve. Known this a good few years too.

According to Andy Rix's notes The Cautions Fall Guy and Take A Look were found in the vaults of Scepter Wand by Ady Croasdell in'85. They were Shrine recordings though taken to Scepter by Eddie Singleton.

Revilot and other smaller labels I agree they wanted to make money but can you honestly say that some of the releases onn the smaller local labels were aimed specifically at the mass white audience the way acts like the Supremes was? There are many labels that aimed there output specifically at the local black buying market. You can't say that about many of the Motown Corporations major sellers. I also agree about the artists and that they are in it for the money. I bet half of them didn't or wouldn't give a shit what style they sang as long as it made them rich I've read Jack Ashfords book and it still doesn'ty change my thinking about Motown.

Give me James Carr over Otis anyday of the week, no comparison IMO

As well as the multi couloured boot there are two very good boots, one has the yellow label and one with the white label like above. On both the Monarch MR is scratched in, originals it is stamped.

That maybe so but it later evolved into the playing of imports and thus the "Rare" soul scene. Records like Baby Love etc really have no place on the scene and I for one wouldn't want to hear records like that, as good as some of them are they are basically MOR pop which was aimed at white audiences as that was where the money was. Having said that gotta agree with Christian and say that there are many great soulful Motown releases (and unreleased) that do have a place on the scene. There's also many great soulful Stax releases too!

This is the multicoloured boot of his biggie......

I think I'd walk out if I heard this played!

Isn't this the third copy for sale this year?

no....

Your right about worth more than a fiver but how can you say it ain't worth £2500? Practically all the copies sold have gone for around that price and above.

One of those that sound far better played out Seb. Personally don't mind where I hear it...think it's great

What happened to the other take of Feminine Inginuity? Can't find it now

seen a near minter recently for 600 quid

One in a dealers box for 600 and was on a list within last 4 months for 600. Rare but not 600 quid rare....£350 IMO. A mate of mine says he was told Rob Smith had large quantity of these years ago PS. Did you get my PM/e-mail?

Stick around. Don't let 'em get you down...just give it 'em back. Welcome to Soul Source
