  1. Also done by ?(Question Mark) & The Mysterians.....among others.
  2. Stardust released Kenny Carter's previously unreleased 'What's That On Your Finger'. I bought one as it's the only way to get it on vinyl and was told they are legit???? I'm really surprised Kent didn't release it on a 45 as they have the rights to the RCA stuff anyway???
  3. This thread gives me a chance to ask..... is there a RCA (Rare And Collectable) volume 3 anytime soon or have I passed this CD by somehow?
  4. I have an almost MINT copy of Carl Holmes 'Dance No.3' on Black Jack. Got it from a Soul Bowl pack many years ago. Problem is it jumps about 3rd of the way through the track!!! I just can't understand why? there is absolutely NO mark or anything on the vinyl and as I said, it's almost MINT! ('almost' 'cos I've had it so long!). I've cleaned and cleaned it but it won't stop! It's just one little jump....bastard! Is this a pressing fault? Are they all like this?
  5. I got a Motown 45 from the States.....sellotaped onto a piece of cardboard...right across the label!!!!! OUCH!
  6. ...maybe going to get a bit more than normal due to recent events methinks. I always thought that particular tune was on 'Steeltown' as was 'You've Changed'.....no?
  7. I reckon £20 without sleeve........., £40 upwards with. Got my little beauty with sleeve for £7 on ebay a couple of years back from Germany, seller had it listed as 'easy listening' !!!!
  8. Definitely 2 of the best! Also Persionettes 'Call On Me / It Happens Everday' (Strata)....as recently discussed
  9. I'm going with the 'I'll Never Forget You' crowd. Best album for me is their 1960's second album 'Soul Sounds' on Minit.
  10. The backing track sounds like the Hesitations 'Soul Superman' on Kapp. Is it Detroit? Obviously called 'Soul Country' right?
  11. HA! I did mention I bought my Strata copy off you Pete, a bargain too!
  12. Bought this 45 about a year ago for 'Call On Me'....boy, was I pleasantly surprised when I played the flip!!! 2 stonking tunes indeed, one just as good as the other. Reminds me of a Detroit recording. Sorry, can't help with any info mate. Think I paid £40 for a minter off Pete Smith, which was a good price as I think it's listed about £75/100. I like the 'Strata' label and got a couple (not 'Dynamic Deadbeats' though!). Be interested to see a discography of the label....
  13. Is this UK release by Herb McQuay unknown? First heard it from a guy in Norwich who runs a record shop, he told me it's going down great guns (in Norwich anyway!). Tried to search for a copy but no luck. Picked one up last week by chance, newly listed on Ebay @ BIN £4.99 so I snapped it up. I think Herb was a one time member of the Platters? It's an uptempo dancer with great potential and surprisingly NOT in John Manship's UK price guide book!!! Anyone know it or playing it?
  14. 'What can I Say' originally came out on President in 1968 as 'Crying All Night'. It was then released as 'What Can I Say' on Pye in 1972. Funny, I've just bought the Pye one but haven't played it yet....I'm hoping it's the same as the President one that I also had and let go many years ago.
  15. Embers - 'Burn You A New One' goes for anything between £40 - 70 The L.P on Cascade does have the only release for 'Cressa Watson' and I'm guessing about £20.
  16. I quite like it. Daniel Merriweather has worked with Mark Ronson, so no surprise really. Does sound like a Northern mid-tempo backing track has been sampled/copied.
  17. complete waste of time putting that on then, as you say...pointless! Could have filled the grooves with a nice rarity, or at least a popular tune. Now I know why I couldn't find it listed in RC guide....too bloody cheap!
  18. Sure you're not talking about 'Cast Your Fate To The Wind'...?
  19. ...also, while I think of it, the one released in 2004 distributed by 'Universal' (backed with Chris Clark) on vintage black Tamla Motown label 982 153 is a different take than the one released in 1979.
  20. An RCA distributed copy still went for £60 on ebay last year!! I bought the RCA distributed copy at an allnighter around '82 for £1.25p....it came in an orange Tamla Motown sleeve, just like the one's for the early 500 TMG series (note 'RCA distributed' in small print on the flip of the sleeve...)
  21. As far as I know, the 'Sounds Orchestral' is previously unreleased, a mod thing I suppose. I have a copy and have to admit, it does seem odd among those northern stormers!
  22. Original should have a stamped 'H' in the run-out grooves, both sides.
