Geraldine Hunt from Chicago, well she moved there when she was two and ws big friends with the Chi-lites. Type her name in google, quite a few pages about her but yet to find any reference to her Bombay outing apart from Mr Rimmers discography

No not being sharp mate. No apology needed either. Pretty certain it's Chicago, would stick my neck out and say it is Chicago.

Heard Carl a couple of times recently and he's tended to stick to the more soulful stuff, some good stuff at that. Not my cup of tea either, well not the real low down R&B that did seem to get popular over the last few years, Don GArdner - Boogaloo, Leo Price etc. Each to their own at the end of the day.

Hope so

Gotta agree with £700 being too much for RM Christian. I would go with my first estimate of £500 as that is I'm sure the last price I saw one sold for. One did go for just under a $1000 on evil bay some months ago. John Wesley I'd certainly rate higher than £700 and if I had one I don't think I'd consider much less than a grand for it (all IMHO). Allan Sisters tricky one to price. I'd probably be tempted to auction with a reserve of what you think it's worth Big O.

Sure the label is from Chicago. No reference in Chicago Soul though.

If there is a rule I've not heard of it. Not mentioned the curry jokes....think they are rather amusing, certainly don't bother me in the slightest Do they bother you?

Have seen Roosevelt Matthews for £500 plus...as high as £750. I'm sure Derek Pearson had one for sale a while back, try the sales section on here to see if you can find it. John Wesley Smityh dunno for sure, rare piece, £1000+ Allan Sisters..is that a legit test press (studio acetate) or a cut/emidisc?

If we didn't although I'm sure we did, we have now You've asked on there and I think your questions have been answered.

Geraldine Hunt, Fascinators, Flash McKinley....... We did this some time ago on RSF.

Believe it or not I've seen it sold for well over £100 over the last 12 months Explosive Dynamiks (old Rob Marriott cover up) slightly better but both poor records IMO.

That time though is 50 years from the date of recording before it passes into the public domain in this country, 90 years for most of the rest of the world. That ruling is currently or will soon be challenged in the courts by the majors. There was an article in the Record Collector a few months ago, will try and scan and post so you can read.

The cd release is I'm sure the acetate version. If Ady is reading maybe he can confirm. Will ring Gilly later if I remember

I've recordings here of the acetate that Gilly got off Dave Hamilton. On the flip there is a take of the instrumental. The instrumental starts off and after 30 seconds or so it stops and the band strike up again but this time it is quicker with some backing from Little Ann towards the end "When he's not around, What should I do, should I put him down" etc The vocal on the other side is the slower one that Ady put out on cd. Dave Hamilton did make a comment to Gilly and Tats on the Searling cut when they played it off a tape saying that it was too fast and originally recorded slower (sleeve notes of Dave Hamilton Detroit Dancers).

Booted on vinyl yes but can you say for certain that licensing wasn't obtained for the two cd releases?

It's not just this scene...it's every music, film and art scene. You can get virtually anything you want if you know where to look, music, films, software....how many sat at their PC's are using 100% licenced software.

I don't know the ins and outs of the industry but I doubt very much that any artist would be on more than 5%. More than likely a couple % for an unknown with extra for writing and producing if they were involved there. I would like to see the industry breakdown for sales of 500 discs bringing in $18.000. Pressing discs, distribution, promotion, admin etc and see just what is left, not a lot I bet Pretty sure I read that some of the Motown stars were on a percent or two and then Motown deducted money for touring costs, choreography etc leaving them with f*** all virtually. I do agree with the principal part and maybe recognition would come into it for some, legal recognition that is and not recognition at the hands of bootleggers.

Did Searling know it wa by Little Ann and a Dave Hamilton Production as studio discs don't always give this info. It wasn't until Gilly and Tats were at Dave Hamiltons that it was discovered who it actually was. But what record company is going to take the chance on releasing a record that either failed the first time round or didn't even make release to a very limited market. They aren't really interested in selling a few hundred copies of any given disc......they want a hit record and most certainly aren't interested in vinyl. I would dare bet that if a record company was to release say 500 copies of any given record, once cost for pressing and admin taken out there would be little or nothing left for the artist.
