  1. Godoy Colbert's "Baby I Like It" on Revue is equally as good, uses the exact same backing track as Len Jewell ..... .... and the flip side of the Godoy Colbert 45, "I Wanna Thank You" is a superb slice of mid tempo soul that deserves playing. Always wondered though whether Len Jewell and Godoy Colbert are one and the same persons?
  2. [ Reuben Wilson - Got To Get Your Own - Chess
  3. Lindy Stevens also had an LP released on Decca which contains Penny Gold. Doesn't matter if it's not soul, it's a great pop record, great to dance to .... and it's no less a soul record than Johnny Caswell !!!!!!
  4. Some people ..... loads of cash being paid for this 45 with shockingly bad versions of two classics on this ebay item with sound clips !!!! Have a listen ! https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A:IT&ih=013
  5. Both mint UK demo and US demo needed of this tune. Anyone ?
  6. Gene, interesting about the James Lewis - Manifesto . We had a topic last year on the various forms of originals and boots of this. Mine looks like the one you have posted up, definitely an original, at least I've always thought so ?
  7. What's Connie Laverne's House For Sale like ? Anyone got a clip of it to listen to ? Is this the same Connie Laverne as on GSF in the US with Just Cant Live Without You ?
  8. Purely being curious here ... and I know we had a thread that touched on this some months ago, but which ebay id names are actually established record dealers buying up constantly and over bidding other collector only bidders ? Not making a moral judgement on these people, business is business after all, just curious who they really are. Isn't "rivalino" one of them? Who is he/she?
  9. The other thread prompted me to start this one. How about soul singers with downright strange or unusual voices, or vocal styles ? First that comes to mind is Roshell Anderson. Judging from what was written in Blues n Soul about him at the time in the early 70's, he caused a bit of stir when he surfaced with his LP on Sunburst , Contempo in the UK .

  12. Bit of interest on this one, a Swedish Columbia pic sleeve 45. https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A:IT&ih=017 Georgie's superb version of the Spinners classic, almost as good as the original ! Have the Sweet Things LP on Aussie Columbia, but no 45 issued in Aussie. Was his Sweet Things track not issued on a 45 in the UK ???? Any other Euro countries issued it as a 45 apart from Sweden ????
  13. That's right Tony, and HBR even released an LP on TV & the Tribesmen which is packed with great RnB tunes ...
  14. While we're on the subject of Barefootin, there's a great version by TV & the Tribesman, released by HBR Records on the US West Coast I believe in an attempt to steal Robert Parker's thunder. TV's version got a release on Aussie Astor . Can UK label collectors on here tell us if TV got a UK release?
  15. Mention of William Bell's "Headline News" immediately brings to mind a whole raft of other similar contemporary soul sounds from that time in the mid 80's. You can start a whole new topic out of this thread ... David Sea "Angel" Percy Larkins "Music of Passion" The Mad Lads "You Blew It" J Blackfoot "Where Is Love " George McCrae "Listen To Your Heart" and many many more !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  16. Best and rarest on Aussie Stateside !!!!
  17. If stock copies exist of this, can someone please post a scan. Also an refo-clip would be greatly appreciated, if that is not asking too much. And can anyone explain how Philly legend Thom Bell came to produce Connie on a fabulous slice of the Philly sound ?!?!
  18. Connie Stevens - Tick Tock - ( Bell ) Mp3 please. Thanks in advance !
  19. What's the Fourth Day's version worth these days ? Ike Noble ? Any other versions ?
  20. Steve, personally the track on the LP that really stood out for me from a Northern Soul point of view was always the Miracles "Its Fantastic" ... but then I could start another topic solely on the fact that, despite the Northern Scene's admiral reapparaisal of the Motown label over the last 25 years, Smokey and the Miracles seem to have been almost completely and inexplicably ignored ??? Where are all the Miracles acetates with great unreleased Northern tracks , or are there none ? Were Smokey and the group not as prolific in terms of volume of recording of tracks in the studio between 63 -68 , as other relatively minor leaguers such as the Velvelettes and the Contours ????
  21. Yes LP only, which is a great thing as it's another one in the eye for the "I only play sevens-couldn't be arsed carrying LPs around" brigade ...............
