    and if you were academically writing about elvis as an important artist, i'm guessing you might write "presley".
  2. boba
    elvis went by and branded his (unique) first name. you can come up with exceptions but clearly when talking about any important literary or historical figure you generally use their last name.

    also, do you refer to shakespeare just as "william"? using someone's last name in that way is a sign of importance.

    you could also rip the audio from youtube

    for the record i don't think he'd actually do that, but it would be hilarious
  6. boba
    i disagree. he's built his name and a brand. i don't know what his personal opinion of it is but if anything, it's the opposite, it's talking about him as an institution. it's like saying "tefteller".

    i thought of that too but it's been mentioned several times above already. but he says "two sider" and the inspirations is a 1-sided disc. maybe he got some crazy press with a flip. he already has a guaranteed 1000 pounds, and hasn't done a reveal, he should switch it out to be a cheap record, that would be so awesome.

    from popsike (this is my copy). it says "introducing gogate's new personalized label", pretty much explicitly saying the custom thing. It's GS-3

    i have a good group soul record on gogate, it has a nice sweet side and an okay midtempo side. group is called "True Nature". Although i'm sure someone has one, I don't know anyone who has one and it doesn't come up in discussions of the label. I'm sure the label was a total custom thing, probably none of the records are connected.

    man, if anyone wants to buy blind from me and make me their personal record shopper i will guarantee you quality. your DJ box will be sharp.

    I just noticed that the undisclosed mystery record is bid up to 235 pounds. awesome.

    Thanks, now I have to buy the Innocent Bystanders 45... However, this is the lineup I have for the Carstairs: Joseph Baines, Larry Jefferson, Ervin Langley (deceased), Johnny Shipley, Ronald Thomas. Is this lineup incorrect? Is there a Cleveland [was that a typo above?] Horne that is on only one of the two records? Thanks for any info.

    Four Vandals "the wrong side of town" on its original '60s label
  14. boba
    isn't the innocent bystanders an instrumental track and the carstairs a vocal group?
  15. boba
    that passions record is awesome (the "what am I to do" side) btw

    this was such a big hit in chicago there are probably pressing variations from the '80s

    starville is local, has to be the first press.

    Fantastic Four - Can't stop looking for my baby / pt. 2 - Ric Tic i don't really care, i just want to throw stuff out there so i can be right if i'm right

    i think i have the full label run of released invictus / hot wax records but i don't organize my collection by label so i never printed out the list and went and checked off each one. i guess i should to check if i should add something to my want list.

    a few years ago on ebay there was a collector liquidating his motown and invicitus collections and he had test presses (not acetates) that he sold of both labels. I got a few unreleased mowest #s I think. Maybe he didn't have invictus test presses but his collection was so complete that it seemed he probably had at least one. I can ask him if he did and who it went to.

    One of the main rules in discogs is that you have to have the record in your hand, I think it's supposed to be the scan of that record. I sent a large folder of records I had scanned to someone who works there who also likes to enter in data and he said he couldn't enter them because he wasn't physically holding them. So even if the dude has a copy for sale, I think you're technically not supposed to take the scan from popsike or wherever. not saying it's a good rule, but apparently it's a big rule there.

    there are all kinds of weird first press things that almost nobody has ever seen but that exist. i recently got a pressing of the ebonees on brewtown on a totally different local label and a pressing of the auditions on freckles on its original label (which I actually knew about). it could be something like that.
  23. boba
    comes with a pic sleeve too
  24. boba
    it's going to be the second issue of the sandpapers on charger which is #117 and which I've never seen. I will be the only bidder.

    if you see an odd artist on stax or loma you're likely to get not soul, neither is one of the 99% soul labels.
