Manchester by far - 1279 compared to say 20 in the whole of Japan.

Prefer original on a la carte. One on Steve Jeffries site but lots noise. Would also buy the multi coloured pressing temporarily if anyone has one ( not the yellow one) thx Paul T

Don’t have the Silhouettes 45 sadly (do have Jock Mitchell though ), but here is a copy of their agency promotional pic I found in NY.

PMd you thx.

X/o version of Radiants classic. Cash or trade. PT

I think 1022 is the first uk spark issue. Silver. The one in the photo is the first 1063 demo though - there was another 1063 with Northern Soul in the label.

Pm’d You

PMs you

Interesting record only recently become aware of. Anyone have one for sale please. Not sure of value but probably little demand as it’s so different. On a search here someone had it for sale at £100 many years ago Thanks. Paul T

Thx. I see yours has had the title corrected. Here is mine.

Yep and very rarely played. As far as I am aware it’s legit - Benn -x is a Philly label and Robb has confirmed they are a Philly band. Presumably it was an unreleased track, hence the two acetates in the UK, which Benn-X picked up the rights and release years later. Robb may have better info than me.

Hi Ed. Ha yep. I now have the time to spend hours listening to stuff I don’t know and yes still buying. There are some great new releases and reissue labels (digging deep etc) I like and collect too. Still have a load of vinyl with E Carter scratched in the run out...... PT

Thanks VM guys - all great info. I thought they may be different versions and just played them both (but can’t find the CDs yet) - the Benn-X seems more polished, less raw. That would make sense that Tim let his acetate be released on a Goldmine TP. The different Groups all had at least one great release. PT

Anyone know the background of this great tune. It was released I think on Benn X in 2000 and then again by Goldmine soul supply in 2004 from their CD the northern soul of Philadelphia. They ( Goldmine) named the song wrong twice Gonna rather than Gotta on the white written test press GS2004 and Treat myself to a new love on the CD!! It sounds 60ts. Written by Frank Bendinelli and Leroy Lovett according to Discogs and on the you tube below. Is it the same Inspirations who recorded other great northern tracks such as no one else can take your place ( LA I think not Philly) and Your wish is my command (Chicago so different again. There was also a Touch me kiss me on black pearl - yet another different group I think? Any info appreciated thx. I searched on SS without success. Paul Temple

Marvelettes please Neil if not sold. I’ll pm you.

I recommend anyone thinking of buying a portable to go for this. I still use mine all the time and the great thing now is that you can plug in a quality small speaker not just use for ear phones. They sound great. Red or yellow the rare ones. Paul Temple

Hi Kev and thank. I must be a bit outdated as I thought it was worth around £350 so will pass unless you fancy a part trade. I could offer £200 plus either david Coleman drown my heart and flip on Barry ex or soulful twins on sable also ex. Both great records No probs if not. Cheers. Paul

Interested in replacing this great x/o if anyone selling. Just let me know condition and price cash or trades Paul T
