how about Jimmie Ross who shared lead duties as a member of 'The Jaggerz'

here's him on lead

 

That's an interesting shout you Source folks have put forward.

Jimmy Ross joined Jimmy Beaumont & The Skyliners in 1975. (the orig line-up (Mabray, Iris, etc)Jaggerz broke up New Years eve 1975)

don't get exited...after searching for years i don't have anything on The Stoppers themselves.

But i still have notes on some of the key players.

On the Stoppers sides

A-side. Ricky Lisi (co-writer) is i believe Yolanda's brother.(see Apex 13435, 13397, etc)

B-side Joe Sauter(co-writer) 

Sauter also formed Rooster Records & pub co with Eric Sayho & Joseph Elia.

Eric Sayho (see Apex 77025, 1966)

Joe Sauter was under contract as a writer to Warner Bros for 3 years and did off-broadway musicals.

Joseph Elia operated summer theatres in Florida, California & Pa. 

the rest...Wemar, etc is easily got from BB/CB or RW.

spend a few quid Alan and turn it into a clock

in Tim's book  1975 a year in the life....he briefly mentions the Insight 28th Sept show from Radio 1 (aired after the 2nd anniv').

Northern Soul. Fact or Fiction? An investigation of Northern Soul, with the voices of the jocks who play it, the customers who dance to it and the records themselves: including Bob Relf, The Casualeers and Jackie Wilson.
Introduced by Paul Burnett
Written and researched by FRANK ELSON.
Producer TONY HALE (Manchester)

anyone have an audio to post?

TIA

i have re-issues ( mostly with the intention of buying the orig' but never bothered with some). 

e.g. i have Midnight Affair , Stax ‎– FANSG 6092-7 -2004 Re-Issue-Germany. No idea waht all the versions now cost, and don't know if all the version are 'the same'.

i don't think Yann does styrene repairs...but hope i'm wrong

label colour, typeface...reminiscent of BG's Soul Label?

(the tune ain't half bad either).

i, for one, am happy with how label owners offer up new releases. I get re-worked, re-mastered, new material, never before released, etc, and for a small price, so i'm happy to pay upfront & wait for delivery. Yes, sometimes i miss out due to small pre-ordering quantity runs but other times i don't - that's just life.

It's How Much...

@DANIEL NOOGER...thanks, yes. And If you listen to Bob's interview with Syl, Bernard is with him and Syl describes him as 'his Bass player'

Was a great article on the chant label in a old copy of voices from the shadows. On the Bobby 45 label owner says Bobby came into town on a train walked into the studio cut both sides and left town. Wonder what happened to him, tis indeed a special record. Got the gamble copy here

Bill Haney was the first white guy to appear on the cover of Voices... i think it was that article.

That's what I said Karl. Not so rare records and ridiculous at 5k , that was just what my end price guess would be.

 You only have to do a count back on this thread to find at leaset 20+. So sought after...but not rare.

maybe not for some...but i've always enjoyed both sides.

cheap as chips...

It might be the (New) All Star? search here on Soul Source

Blues and Soul article

"It was in a Blues & Soul column, in June 1970, that Godin made another significant cultural intervention, when he gave the name "Northern Soul" to the new soul "scene" emerging in clubs in Blackpool, Stoke and Manchester, whose fans would come into the Soul City shop at weekends looking for fast-tempo dance records"

Please to note the word "Scene"

Dave only really differentiated Northern Soul ('The Soul of The North' B & S column) i.e. people's different taste for Soul in the North of England from Soul due to geography. I don't believe it was anything to do with the then scene, established or not. He rarely used (if ever as far as i know) the term Northern Soul to describe anything other than a 45 that would appeal to Soul fans in the North.

Nooney up-top, plus L-R Bobby Blood, Bill McCubbin, Tom Funk, & Kent Dunbar ( do ya think they were being tongue-in-cheek with their names?)

It is an easy way to pay for something that does not cost the buyer or seller anything. 

The problem I can see is, if you are not happy with what you have bought, you can't get your money back. Unless your bank will step in!

Hope this helps, or have I missed something here?

ah...get it.  i guess these transfers are simple clicks via Internet banking then?( i don't do internet banking)

Apart from the obvious general answers...why do some sellers (UK to UK) ask for B/transfer on records under £300. 

It’s a genuine question, not a moan.

Very interesting, can you let me know where you read that please?

Correct and quite similar 

@Ady Croasdell-The Record(New Jersey) June 1975.

BTW -Charles Cascales aka Charles Cabot 'oversealous agent/mgr' had done it on at least 2 occasions

The Shirelles track reminds me of Vessie Simmons- I can make it on my own.

 

Vessie Simmons did appear as Vessie Simmons & The Fabulous Shirelles. The case (fraud) went to court, Vessie was acquitted but her manager Charles Cascales was convicted of mail fraud. sending out brochures and photo's depicting just The Shirelles.
