Sound different to me as well Benji...the guitar work is different as is the percussion.

But alas, sadly, he is hanging up his headphones at the end of the year, I believe?

Weeeeeeell, you may be pleased to learn Russ, that both Irish Greg and myself will be DJing on the same bill at the New Years Eve Va-Va-Voom...in the main hall...in good ole London town...plus AlanH will also be in the R'nB room...almost like a Capitol Soul Club reunion!?! I believe Soul Sam and Arthur Fenn will be our 'support' hahaha...and not forgetting your hosts for the evening, Ady, Yann and Joel...plenty of quality tuneage and atmosphere guaranteed!

I see Tim has had the Anglo-American site re-vamped...much easier to use plus his valuation guide is online/viewable/searchable.

If playing it out in a dark club, no! Seriously, if on a record shop shelf, yes, as the the printing of the wording is sharper and the labels also have a P.Vine credit on them.

Jackie Wilson A Lovely Way To Die / Soulville This is the ultra rare Japanese Coral release from June 1968 on a stunning looking white demo. This track never gained a US or UK 7", and was thought to be a Euro only release until I found a copy over here a few years ago. It also just happens to be a bang, crash, wallop of a Northern Soul dance track that is still widely unknown to the masses...flipside is This copy is in superb condition and comes complete with it's full-colour info-sheet featuring the lyrics...karaoke time! To be accurate: - vinyl near mint both sides, but has an edge warp...plays no problem at 2grams - labels veeeery slight discolouration (hardly noticeable) otherwise no faults - info-sheet has slight wrinkling, but no tears, writing or sticker marks In the absence of Refosoul, I've added a YouTube clip...not from actual record: https://youtu.be/T_LiRK3ruJE Quite simply rare...VERY rare! OFFERS INVITED! Payment will be via £UK cheque or UK bank transfer...no PayPal One-for-one trade considered, but it will have to be special!

Did Brenda Lee's superb version of Stevie's, 'Uptight', ever make it on to a 7" in the US, or anywhere else for that matter?(apart from Japan that is ) https://youtu.be/NRPazSe1tKQ

This used to be absolutely HUGE at the 100 Club for AdyC...an anthem even...but when was the last time it was spotted on a play list anywhere?! A top Latin-tinged Big City Belter...with a cracking Northern dancer on the flip as well! Time to blow the dust off!?

'You Outta See my Baby'...bit of an R'n'B crash bang whallop jobbie inna Arthur Alexander, 'Keep her Guessing' style...plus harmonica. Probably not your cup of tea, Tony...but defo will appeal to some.

My hand is also up to vote for that top tuenage! One of the few UK demos I've hung on to over the years...such a great dance track with its blistering brass and organ work....highly recommended!

Whilst we're on about Latin (!)...also got these: The Lively Ones Bugalu Party MGM LP demo £30 + £5 feat. Boogaloo version of the Capitolss, ' We Got A Thing That's In The Groove' and the romping Northern stomper, 'Take It While You Can'. Strong E condition, vinyl, labels and sleeve. ...and... David Coleman Drown My Heart / My Foolish Heart Barry WD £110 + £5 P&P One the best Latin Soul 45's...mint-

The Harvey Averne Dozen LP Fania - P.Vine reissue Japan. features the monster, 'Never Learned To Dance'. Vinyl, labels and sleeve are all near mint. £50 + £5 P&P ON HOLD £UK cheque or UK bank transfer only. No PayPal...no offers.

For Jackie collectors, I now have a spare of the Japanese press of Soul Galore...see scan above. It's also within this page of Japanese original presses I currently have up for sale: https://www.anorakscorner.com/SalesPage8.html

As Pete says, the black label promos are bootlegs...the original demo is on a white label. Love the track myeself...soooo Northern...reminds me of the Yate allnighters!

These three...and Jimmy Washington which I haven't got around to scanning yet!

Gimme, gimme, gimme!

Opens OK for me, Ian...is your Adobe up to date?

True, the Victor group were pretty thorough! The Japanese Motown label would have three codes on it: 1. the Japanese catalogue number (JET????), 2. the Japanese matrix number (MOT????) 3. the US catalogue number (TM????/GL????/S???? etc) The Globe label releases did not have the Japanese matrix code, as they didn't start those until they fired up the Motown logo. The vinyl would have the US catalogue number machine stamped into the deadwax, along with various other machine stamps.

Ver' ver' nice...not seen that one before.

There's a large bunch of Chubby Checker, Bobby Rydell, Orlons and Dee Dee Sharp releases over here, but that is about it, sadly. The Bunny Sigler is rare...took me 3 years and I couldn't miss it, even without the tri-center...I'll upgrade one day!

'ere you go: 1189 (vinyl) H-1189-A Don't Sell Your Soul H-1189-B Baby What're You Gonna Do 1203 (styrene) H-SPEC 100-M Delta# 78487 I Need Your Lovin' H-1189-B Delta#71230-X and MR stamp Baby What're You Gonna Do ...and the 1203 WD is for sale at £40...miss it at your own risk!

Yes. Has 'DJ COPY' on the lower left-hand side of the label, as I recall?

£100 > £150...rarer on an orange label stocker. Incidentally, I remember buying it from GuyH one nighter many moons ago after hearing Keb spin it that very night...turned out to be the same copy, so not sure it had many spins from Keb!?

...plus a Nashville Matrix machine stamp, as you mentioned in your initial post? Looking forward to the scan/pic.
