John Reed

last couple sold on ebay in 2012 one for nearly $1,000, both VG- and from the write up both looks like they're from the same seller. A mighty rare record.

It was released as part of the Columbia Disco Series and I think all of those releases were individual special edits.

This UK release as well as the others such as Breakwater, were all linked to the Rare Groove phenomenon going on at that time, where BMG leveraged off of its Arista/Ariola back catalogue.

I've got one I can send through

I'm unsure if they can any more, as the majority of the mainstream venues just seem to have the same names from back in the good old days.

There is an original 7" from 91 as well.

.

Does any one know if it was it dubbed form record or from master tapes?

UK Spring/Polydor changed their 7" design in 1979 think the "Fatback Band - You're My Candy Sweet" was the first one, where the catalogue number on the right hand side changed from horizontal to vertical. Also the 1979 release doesn't state "From the Spring LP Free & In Love", whereas the 1976 release does.

There are two pressings of #206 one credited to the Staple Singers and the other credited to the Stapleton Singers

Theres a couple of Staple Singers releases in this series

Bump

if its a real one you could be talking between £500 to a grand

John Manship has recently put one on his site for £30, which I think is quite reasonable for one of the "tricky issues"

Bump...

This would sound better on an episode of the Love Boat than a soul night in 2012

I uploaded a pdf of John Lias' 100 LP article on to SS a few years ago. John Lias Top 100 LP's - Voices 14 (1990)[1]-1.pdf

Hi All, Does anyone have a copy of Sam Dees - Trouble Child - Atlantic 45-2991 to sell, one of the flips to So Tied Up. Looking for a minimum grade of EX+ Please provide selling price only, no "offers" as you may be disappointed, with my response. Regards, John

I think its a similar story with Carl Sims Seventeen Days of Loving ten a penny on Edge, but probably £200-300 on the local Labro release.

The credits for both recordings are the same except for the addition of Ted Jarrett as Executive Producer on the T-Jaye release

If its mono on both sides its the boot. The real demo's are Mono/Stereo.

It doesn't matter what they say about No Returns, under the Distant Seller rules, by law they have to accept returns.

That's for the 90s reissue, isnt it?

Was skye49, but has disappeared. He's got a new Discogs account with the same name.
