    Here's another related label: Then there are a few more Vicki Williams 45s (see e.g. https://www.sirshambl...i_williams.html ).

    Is there actually an orange bootleg of this 45? The label for a proper orange/multi-coloured issue corresponding to the demo on the right would look like this: The 2 demo's shown are pressed at different plants, but isn't the second still a later pressing (after May '68) than the first (which is before May '68), just as the Volt label shown above and the green Stax 45s are later pressings?

    I found the following explanation for the different label variations from Stax expert Ren Wu in the archives of the Stax newsgroup: "After the distribution deal was concluded in May 1968, Atlantic became the owner of all Stax/Volt material. However, the stack of record logo as well as the lightning logo remained at Stax. So Atlantic was not able to released records with those logo's. That's why they introduced the green and multicolored Volt label. To gain airplay Atlantic released promo copy's of those newly labelled 45's. ( about the same reasons why a record company had one or more sub labels)."

    Maybe I'm wrong, but isn't the one on the right (just like the multi-coloured Volt 45s and green Stax 45s) from a pressing made after Atlantic stopped distributing new Stax product?

    This is KID Anderson (it's a country 45), not the the great soul man Kip Anderson.

    I also like his Kingsrow 45, with one side written together with Tommy and the other a cover of a song by Tommy.

    Two good sides indeed. Craig Moerer has one copy in stock for $30, which is very reasonable I think.

    Last year Junior McCants on King went for $15000+ https://www.popsike.com/SCARCE-Northern-Sou...0295199832.html

    I won the ebay copy, after having the 45 on my wants list for a long time. It arrived the same day as another obscure Chant 45 from a different seller, the second (non-soul) Jerry Woodard 45 on the label.

    PM please if you've got one for sale: Fame 415 - Clarence Carter - Heartbreak Woman / Love's Trying To Come To You

    Willie Johnson, Clarence Reid, Charles Brimmer (and Pic & Bill and Willie Tee mentioned already)

    According to this blog (which includes a picture of the boot 45) https://homeofthegroove.blogspot.com/2008/0...orge-davis.html it was indeed George Davis who passed away last year...

    Here it is: A fascinating book, with 200+ pages on the background of these great labels (including 90 pages discography) and 140 illustrations.

    I've got the Galen Gart book (not for sale though), so if you need specific information from it (e.g. w.r.t. the discography) I could scan some pages.
  16. mshoals
    "My Baby's Back" is the full title. There's a nice tribute to Senator Jones at "The B Side": https://redkelly.blogspot.com/2008/12/ray-j...hep-me-111.html

    There's another one on the Watch label: Watch 6337 - Sugar Dee / I Think Of You Here are some scans:
  18. mshoals
    Not much use for you now, sorry, but one just finished at ebay for only $15.50 https://cgi.ebay.com/ALBERT-WASHINGTON-r-b-...1QQcmdZViewItem

    Sorry, but I'm not selling. Thanks John, looks like the Rojac copy is indeed the first release then, as also suggested earlier in the thread. Nice auction win at $17 then, the current Rojac copy
  20. mshoals
    Thanks for the replies!
  21. mshoals
    I always thought Big Maybelle's classic 2-sider Let Me Go/No Better For You was only released on the Port label, but today a copy on Rojac arrived in the mail. Is this an original? I can't find any references to the Rojac release in any discography or the JM guide? If it is, then which one came first, Port 3002 or Rojac 1006? Thanks.

    In this thread the difference between the original and boot is described: /Benny-L...ml&p=513463

    Mitty Collier - Your Sign Is A Good Sign (Peachtree) Bobby Boseman - Astrological Soul Train (Tangerine)

    That's great news, Al Johnson and others on the Kent 3CD. I see now that "Bless Your Sweet Little Soul" is not even on the Overture bootleg (where it is replaced by a Percy Sledge Jr track).
  25. mshoals
    Thanks for clearing that up. I assumed the Japanese True Sound LPs (Tony Borders / South Camp-Quinvy Revue) issued prior to the Charly LPs already contained unissued tracks, but that's apparently not the case then. Wish I had bought the CD as well then! At the time only 2 "new" tracks seemed a bit too few. And the CD didn't include (if I remember correctly) one of the best from the LPs, Al Johnson's "Bless Your Little Sweet Soul". Looking forward to that one, with many of the LPs highlights (Brenda Duff, Jimmy Braswell, Al Johnson, Eddie Bradford,...) still not legally reissued on CD.
