Must admit I have both of those on gold label first presses...along with loadsa other Boogaloo LPs on Cotique, Allegre etc

Out of interest, what is the going rate for an original gold label copy of Bobby's Fania LP featuring 'Use it...'?

A few of these are already in RefoSoul, if you are curious: four shades - my world - persians - i don't know how (to fall out of love with you) - mitty collier - i can't lose - harold curington - one day girl - irma thomas - don't mess with my man -

Apparently not so, as I also like Joey Delorenzo!

...and here is a spanking WD (for sale!) Incidently, Steve Smith used to play the flipside 'Too-raa-loo-ra bye bye baby', which is a silky smooth dance track!

How about this classy yet dirty low-down mover: Dorothy and the Hesitations - Trying To Work A Plan -

Beautiful...'bout time you put a book together of Candian releases :thumbsup:l

I remember reading that as well and then hunting for a Bo-Ro soundfile to compare it with my Ninandy WD...can't recall if there was much of a difference...my Ninandy copy plays loud and proud, no problems. Persoanlly, I've always wondered if the Deadbeats/Roy Roberts ever heard each others recordings as there is a similarity there!

I blame mine on the Hinckley leisure all nighters sound system...stupidly loud and always distorted Or maybe it is because I press my headphones firmly against my head to really appreciate the bass lines in tracks I hear the occasional Oldie/Classic 'out of context' at the collectors nights over here (no dancefloor, but curry and pizza available!), and you can defo hear different qualities within the track that one may have missed before.

...and here is a not so well known Northern dancer co-written by Max

Forgot I had this LP on Japanese Contempo, which is nice.

There's more info about the various tracks Dave Burton recorded on Larry Hammond on Soul-Source within the following thread: They are not vintage at-the-time recordings...recorded less than 10 years ago...Larry is basically singing over instrumentals. Larry is a Jazz drummer still performing gigs in and around Hong Kong...just tap his name into Google and you'll find pictures of him.

This one also appeared on a plain orange Mickays label with italic 'Mickays' across the top...and of course on Scepter (only red stock copies?) How about his version of 'Day Tripper'...love it...here's x3 WDs off my shelves:

Never seen them. The Charly 'Rare Soul Uncovered' series were on cassettes.

Next time you see Bob Fisher or Cliff White, you may wish to ask them why they left it as 'Unknown Male Vocalist'.
