Yes,it's on an LP and also a 45 RPM EP -
Also released in the UK on Dave Godin's Soul City label. Sorry, no spare though
-
Yes, this was last discussed a few months back and there are one or two more copies around Check out this link:
-
I get a feeling they don't really want to sell this... Whatever it is!
-
Yes, a great double sider it is You really need to have the issue for both of them as the promo is a same both sides of "I'm his wife" Which I just had to get after hearing Curtis play at the Mecca back in the 70's, so I had to get the demo and an issue didn't I Yes Mike - there were some I heard last time at JS that I also thought I'd never hear played out - Jackie Moore for one Sorry - I've no spare though, but I'll keep an eye out for you.
-
This was released twice, my copy was the second release - with "Teasin' me" as the A side. That's not a bad tune, written by Eddie Singleton I seem to think ? Also not forgetting the song in question by Ashford & Simpson / Jo Armstead
-
Can someone please post that link on here for me? For some reason I can't get on EMS without logging in - and I haven't been able to do that for years Since they went web based anyway!
-
Who's complaining then Dave? Someone who doesn't like their own song I guess...
-
John has a copy on his site right now, but it doesn't mention it's anything BUT... if you search on Gemm, John's copy is categorised as 'RE-ISSUE' https://www.gemm.com/item/KING-c-TURNER--AND--HIS--BLUES--BLASTERS/TWO--LOVES/GML8782248/ On both sites however, it does mention it's Big Joe Turner - so maybe it's just an oversight rather than trying to mislead? BTW - co-incidently, Craig Moerer also has one for sale...
-
But just how often does the 45 turn up? It seems like ages since I last heard of one...
-
Here's my only NZ Stateside (I think?) Darrell Banks:
-
Here's the US promo: I'm afraid my UK demo is a bit 'crackly' otherwise we might have been able to do something!
-
Not a foreign one Martin, it's my US demo - didn't I show it you once before? Like in March 2006....
-
No Blake, it's not just UK only : Argentina released it (it's not mine though), plus I've got it on a US Paramount mono / stereo promo along with a UK promo. I don't know if there was a US issue though, but it's most likely.
-
Here's a few more goodies from Stax and associated labels: Of course there's loads more that could be added to these
-
YesPaul that's the correct title on the Poppies LP....it was also released with that same title on a 45 in Chile:
-
Yes it's featured on a few to my knowledge: Best of Soul Time: a Selection of Northern Soul Classics from the Archives Ofcolumbia Epic & Date https://www.amazon.co...a/dp/B00006GF76 The Poppies meet the Glories https://www.gocontine...n_poppies.shtml I'm sure there's more than these two... Edit: - Pete beat me to it
-
Agreed on all that's been said about the lady - but it just reminded me... wasn't there something by her - as Sandra Richardson that Richard Searling has been known to play now and then over the years? For the life of me I can't remember the title but I seem to think it was some unissued thing?
-
I know this was a long time back, but I don't think the blue Calla copy has been featured yet, this is the short intro with "Good-bye love" on the A side. It would appear that the spoken intro copies are numbered 'C127B' whereas the short intro copies are 'C127BN' Plus also the slight difference in the timing for the short intro being 2 mins while the spoken intro is longer at 2:28 Here's a scan of the spoken intro DJ copy for comparison. I know it doesn't help much as to who Frankie is / was though - I've never know that myself, nor been quite sure of the 'he or she' aspect of it either
-
I've got one of these but it's a New Zealand copy (MCA 3029) Would this be the same mix / take as the Aussie copy you mentioned? Can't really say I was aware of it being different, so never thought to compare it...
-
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the Bobby Sheen one of those 'dodgy' one that came out some years back? I thought the proper demos had the *stars* on the flip side? The official 'A' side was "I may not be what you want" NOT "Something new to do"
-
Lovely tune it is Also features as track 1 on the Israeli LP - currently my Avatar
-
Here's Anthony & the Imperials in it's promo format Not mine though - I've just got a yellow copy!
-
They both recorded for GWP at that time, so I assume that may be the reason for the release? No idea on a price though, but I don't think it's a lot.
-
What about this one Steve - a promo CD single from Brazil? Never got myself a 12" though, just the 7", CD album.... and the one above
