Billy Butler And The Impressions, Love Me
Not forgetting the UK release of this on Buddah! But I do seem to think the Curtom release is a little bit harder to find? But it's a lovey tune whichever format you get it on
-
The Majestics - I Love Her So Much It Hurts Me - Linda
I'll agree on this also - I picked mine up from Record Corner after being told about it from a Yate regular I knew - it was a long time after that beore it got major plays elsewhere (as far as I can remember anyway!) The Majestics though, I don't remember hearing until the early to mid 80's.

Jimmy James "hey Girl" Orig?
It's a boot, probably from the Beach scene. It was mentioned on here in April /forums/topic/129119-2-wants/
-
Joe Tex -Under Your Powerful Love Unreleased Version/whispers - Where There Is Love/in Love Forever
Probably three of us got it then Ivor!

Bobby Jones On Kack
No - fraid not Sean

Bobby Jones On Kack
I don't think I've ever heard this one, only seen reviews in mags - I've no doubt it's already in refosoul but never thought to check
-
Can Anyone Help To Name That Tune?
DON GARDNER - IS THIS REALLY LOVE - Is this the one then - It's a good chance I'd say
-
Loma
Hmmm - interesting, so presumably we could even see a green copy of the above Bobby Reed 45? (2089)
-
Played At The Ritz
No - I think that was was much earlier, it was his version of the old Ashford & Simpson song
-
Loma
Yes possibly there is one Roger, I noticed the Bobby Reed is a few numbers earlier and has a white 'non' WB promo, but the Voice Box for example being a later one is the WB release. It could possibly be a clue as to how close it was to when the yellow Loma releases stopped?

Shirley Brown Stax Uk Only 45
Y'know what they say about Yorkshire folk - cheaps not the word (Or skate either!) Sean - mending slowly, but surely - thanks
-
Loma
Great theme Roger! I'd not realised that the above Linda Jones promo was of the Green Warner Bros release.... Was there also a promo for the yellow copy? I can't really say as I'd noticed.

Shirley Brown Stax Uk Only 45
If only there was somewhere that plays this kind of stuff eh Oh - I just remembered, there is - isn't there

Northernsoul That Makes Ya Face Screw Up
Speaking once more of Walter - I just love this one! Pure class!

Wee Willie Walker - I Don't Want To Take A Chance
Phew! - that makes me feel a bit better knowing I'm not the only one Got to dig out me CD though and check for the 'Gold foil' - don't think it's got any though...yet! Here's a scan of the LP cover:
-
Linda Jones - My Heart Needs A Break
Never had a white one, did have a green one for a time but now just got the yellow issue
-
Wee Willie Walker - I Don't Want To Take A Chance
Y'know - I hadn't realised there was more than one mix of this I only knew of the Jap Goldwax CD version back in the day when it first got spins at Yarmouth / Pitches etc. I've just compared the above CD recording with the LP recording of Andys and they sound the same - so does that mean the Kent 45 was another mix which only surfaced via Kent? I guess so... In fact I think Adey just answered that one whilest I'm typing. I suppose there goes my 'street cred' now

What Year Were These Records Released?
I don't think they'll be far out Dave - I was more giving your site a plug / memory jog than blaming you if the info is wrong... but if the cap fits and all that (Actually I guessed you'd only include dates if you thought they were right and they were around the years I expected they should be - without digging through loads of mags for no doubt the same answers)
-
Linda Jones - My Heart Needs A Break
I know the price, just wondered who it was... Think I'll just stick with my loma copy
-
What Year Were These Records Released?

Linda Jones - My Heart Needs A Break
So who ended up with Linda then - anyone on here?
-
Leroy Hutson-I Think I'm Falling In Love
Join the queue Mark It's the flip side to "Blackberry jam" on Curtom 124 - not on demos though
-
Lou Courtney
I didn't realise this was a hard 45 Sean? Are they generally demos of the other side then? I've always loved that side though, mind you it's a great double sider really - the album's not too shabby either...!
-
Where Have All The Modern Rooms Gone?
I have to agree on this one - sadly we are a minority and also fragmented across the country to an extent that it probably isn't viable for promotors (in general) to cater for us. More so, when at any one time there's only ever going to be a handful or so attending an event
