I've just added 103 to the Optimum catalogue on 45cat as it wasn't on there so that speaks for its elusive pedigree! https://www.45cat.com/record/nc709220us&rc=751286#751286 BTW: I collect the label and have 3 by the Royal Jesters.

Just had listen to the flip of 103 and the flip is a nice dancer 'Down, Down, Down'.

Nice, I never knew that one! I only know Optimum 102 .....which goes for a lot of $$$$$$$

PM'd you

Talk about a surprise. Took a box of 'not needed' 45's to the local record shop in the hope that I'd get a £1 each for them. Owner of the shop wasn't interested in any of them. A few weeks later I popped back in there and was thumbing through some Psych LP's and came across a compilation called 'Rubble' or something like that featuring... and I quote 'Rarities From The UK'. You guessed, one of those 'not needed' 45's was on there! I posted it on ebay and got..... https://www.popsike.com/Abel-Fletcher-Girl-On-The-Shore-Rare-FreakbeatPsychOrganRubble-1970/201201578400.html Just goes to show, you really don't know what you've got lurking in your 'throw away' box!

I'll be buying one that's for sure. As A Motown collector I need a USA one. I have 2 UK copies, the first 1970's release (TMG 1170) and the alternate version which is this one....

As you said, red. This sits in my Motown box, original demo...

I reckon they will try to push it Stateside, if it sells enough over there and they get a hit on their hands then it's all good and it will have been money well spent by Jack. I believe he owns (or at least has a hand in) the pressing plant where it is being pressed (Third Man Records).

$75,000 has been mentioned but I don't know how true that is.

Interested in 9 Jerry Ganey 20 Johnny Maestro 30 Teddy Randazzo Still available Roger?

Doh! I just realised

They are blue-eyed. The group on the pictured LP are from Schofield and on 'Starfire' records. These are the Georgia group mentioned earlier.

'Finders Keepers, Losers Weepers'? Sounds Detroit????

Not yet mate.

Car boot find 25p. No great shakes but Northern and the other side is a good Mod type beat track...

I think the instrumental is by the M.S.R Band and on an M.S.R label LP, possibly one of the 2 I posted.

These are all the ones I know with the same backing: Like The Lord Said Gloria I'm A Man If You Don't Like It Don't Knock it Don't You Tempt Me (BTW Manfromsoul I just ordered Spi-Dells and Casinos from you ...oh I love a bit of blue-eyed! You got any Rodd Keith?).

Royal Jesters - 'Lady Sunshine' (Optimum) fairly similar to Main Change - Sunshine is Her Way.

Do you mean 'My Baby'?

Yes I agree Mike, as tomangoes said, it's run it's course. Been good though

Nice one, I got it on US 'Date'. This one is also good by him...
