On the question of who was pressing RCA late 60s/early 70s, I worked in the Decca factory in Bridgnorth in 1970/71, making cassettes. We regularly produced cassettes for RCA (usually Elvis & Jim Reeves), and in the staff shop you could order vinyl records, including current RCA releases, so it looks as though Decca were still pressing for RCA at least until 1971

I’m also surprised that Jackie Day is classed as rare. I remember it getting plays when it was still on catalogue. I ordered copies and sold them at school for 15bob - I can’t be the only one doing that

Rose Brooks “l’m moanin’” has a version of “They’re coming to take me away” on its A side -

Johnny Bartel Mispress ? What do we think
Nickinstoke replied to Blackpoolsoul's topic in Look At Your Box
The Johnny Bartel A side is the same song as the Five Stairsteps. I’ve often wondered how this happened - I didn’t know about the LaVern Baker -
Yes, it sounds like a studio version. The YouTube clip includes an image of a CD which I couldn’t find any trace of - maybe the source of the version on my CD.

I hope it’s OK to revive this thread. I looked through some old CDs, given away at venues years ago, and came across Johnny Moore - No cash, no charge, a new track to me. I couldn’t find any info on Discogs but there’s a YouTube clip from 14 years ago, credited to Jake Moore. Does anyone know anything about this track. Is it Johnny Moore’s brother?

Patti Drew did “ The mighty O.J.” on Innovation II/UK Contempo. Not one of her best, sadly

Eddie Billups - Shake off that dream - bootleg?
Nickinstoke replied to Nickinstoke's topic in Look At Your Box
I don’t have the stocker of “Shake off”, just a demo, but comparing it to a couple of other 77 releases from a similar date, I’m sure it’s wrong. Looks like a stuck on label and the print quality is inferior.
