Many Thanks for ALL Information. Always something new to learn when collecting.

Another Early Gordy Release. Popsike.com Has MOTOWN Reference on ORIOLE Popsike.com In CANADA has Tamla Logo - Gordy Number Popsike.com However Tamla_Motown eventually became the Logo of choice.

We had Columbia, Fontana, London, Oriole, Stateside. Eventually Tamla_Motown Reference to Tamla Motown found in the Credits on the Stateside Release, even though it was released on Gordy in the States. So who decided on Tamla_Motown

I know that CANADA Used the Tamla Label as their first Logo. Initially on a Blue Label then Yellow TAMLA with the Number for the U.S.A. Release. Eventually adopting Tamla_Motown as a Logo

Many Countries ended up using the Tamla_Motown Logo, but who was first & who decided on the Logo. Did EMI set the ball rolling or were they told that Tamla_Motown was the Logo to use along with other countries.

Gladys Knight & The Pips Discography (Soulful Kinda Music Link) >>> GLADYS KNIGHT & THE PIPS <<< I went to see Gladys Knight at The Sheffield Arena a couple of years ago. One of the best artists I have ever seen, an Awesome Talent.

That's almost the same as one I had last week. No card to stop record sliding about within the box. Record was OK but before opening I could see the box had nothing to strengthen it as it had sunk in at the center.

Nice One, CHESS1908 White DEMO. I will keep a look out for others.

Ashford & Simpson along with J Armstead

Not sure why, but there's 2 DEMOs for this SOLO release from JEAN KING (Member of the BLOSSOMS) Another thing to note: The "PLUG SIDE" "DON'T SAY GOODBYE" presumably makes "IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME" the B Side. However; At some point the B Side has been Promoted as the PLUG SIDE on the Double Sided DEMO, Strange.

Wingates Love-In Strings - Let's Have A Love-In Ronnie & Robyn - Sidra's Theme I imagine that there must be many unknown musicians out there that played on many of these Instrumentals. Have any made themselves known over the years or even aware of their following I wonder. The Fathers Angels - Bok To Bach.

Regarding "RESCUE ME" I've always thought it a puzzle that the DEMO is so hard to find, so far for me ONLY on one Variation. When I believe it was made by CHESS to compete with "The Motown Sound". Would have thought it would have experienced enhanced promotion rather than less.

I just find it strange that there should be extra information coming from one pressing plant / printer, compared to the others.

The Dark Blue copy arrived through my door about 15 Minutes ago. Noticed the extra credit "Under Supervision of: Billy Davis" on the Blue.

Possibly the reason why DEMOs do not appear to be there for every variation of "RESCUE ME".
