  1. the best part of this article is their (intentional? accidental?) use of the word "renumerated" instead of "remunerated".
  2. what I was trying to say in my first response was that, at least from the scans and pictures, the label colors are not necessarily different
  3. The only record I'm into on HBR is Gerri Diamond "mama you forgot"
  4. thanks, interesting ... also didn't know that bit about malcolm x...
  5. haha, I never noticed before that a Polish guy produced this
  6. Ok I didn't notice that. That really seems to be the only difference, label variations like that are common across releases even at the same pressing plant. Thanks.
  7. while there may be different labels, what are you noticing that's different about those? They are all different scans / pictures which can look different due to scanners, cameras, lighting, etc. Those don't look that different to me.
  8. Don't know if they're all in the UK, but in Chicago they don't really turn up except the first one, "you stood me up".
  9. A bunch of random old soul guys are in Barbershop, just because it has a lot of older Chicago guys in it. One of the Mandells and one of the Auditions are in it for example. I wouldn't be surprised if more soul guys were in it.
  10. About a year ago I decided to tell every seller who sent a 45 with terrible packaging (e.g. often in bubble wrap) about how to pack a 45. I did it super politely and left positive feedback first. It just pissed people off. I think if you're buying from someone you don't know (especially someone who doesn't look like a seasoned 45 seller), you should add a polite note to your payment about packaging.
  11. so apparently I was wrong and the a-1 and listening post group are the same group, and the groups are both from texas
  12. thanks a lot, I have two more years anniversary shows since this one and many many shows, check the link. thanks.
  13. I can't tell, are you still joking here?
  14. There are a bunch of ebay record dealers (often in different genres) whose auctions command a premium, due to professional listings, a large amount of return customers built up over the years, etc.
  15. I never understood how people think it's a good idea to register on sites as "Ruby Andrews" or whatever artist they think is cool. I understand you're a fan, but you know they're actual people and not like some object, right?
  16. here's northern soul kittens 1 and 3 buy it now https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=%22northern+soul+kittens%22&_sacat=0&_odkw=%22soulful+steppers%22+%22beat+ballads%22&_osacat=0&_trksid=p3286.c0.m270.l1313
  17. here's all volumes of "soulful steppers" except 4 https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw="soulful+steppers"+"beat+ballads"&_sacat=See-All-Categories a little over a day left
  18. The bags unlimited site specifically says that polyethylene and polypropylene are suitable for long time storage but polyvinyl sleeve (which is also semi-rigid) offgasses and is not: https://www.bagsunlimited.com/c-86-poly-sleeves.aspx#PV I think the sleeves you are talking about are probably not PVC since the plastic is thinner and not stiff, but it also isn't clear on the site. https://www.bagsunlimited.com/p-4178-7-polylined-sleeve.aspx you could ask them. they're probably fine but personally i'm too paranoid to touch any poly inner sleeve.
  19. not trying to be a dick, but i don't see the point in posting these two auctions. what's special or interesting about them versus a hundred other ebay auctions that are on at any time?
  20. Sold for 200 pounds https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280722055308#ht_5641wt_881
  21. Kris, are you maybe thinking of a topic on Waxidermy? I panicked after reading that and have been trying to purge all poly lined sleeves from my collection. I know exactly what that hazing effect looks like too, it sucks and causes surface noise and there's nothing you can do
  22. those UK style envelope mailers aren't even close to secure even with the super thin cardboard stiffeners that people use.
  23. dude, you're not convincing me
  24. I probably could find it in copyright to find a real year but it took 20 minutes to find that DPG thing so I will try to do this one when I have the chance.
  25. I think even the labels are probably the same label. If you look at the publishing on the pusherman record, it goes to a website where they're actually selling maison de soul 45s. I would be surprised if this record was '71, before curtis mayfield's "Pusherman". I guess it would be interesting if it predated him though.
