  1. It used to blow my mind looking at the cheap prices of expensive records whenever people posted these lists. But after a while I would look at the soul bowl lists and see that most of the records hadn't gone up and some have actually gone down from 30 years ago. How would you know back then which ones would go up -- ultimately you would have lost out buying everything. Still cool to look at though. That craig moerer list does have a lot of nice stuff on it.
  2. Hi. Last week on my radio show I interviewed a member of the Chicago group Tomorrow's People. You can listen to the interview at the bottom of my interviews page: https://www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html . Today I did an all-music show. You can listen to the show at the bottom ofhttps://www.sittinginthepark.com/shows.htm . Playlist follows and thanks again for your interest.

  3. thanks, I swear i looked there before but I found it now. I still had to go through 10 pages of messages but it was fast enough. thanks again.
  4. is there a "select all" or do I have to manually check each one (which is tedious, especially if there are many pages)? thanks.
  5. He sure has a lot of fags
  6. I've been in stores where dealers have told me they pulled out the Manship guide when John was in the store. I'm sure he could fill in more details probably.
  7. Larry Nestor, pianist at one-der-ful, produced the jimmy and the entertainers record on toddlin' town. that's how the song ended up being done twice. He told me jimmy's last name once but i forgot.
  8. this is also my experience. this also came out on Renee, very hard to find on that label.
  9. my friend got this for $1 in 1967
  10. It's just google books. They have almost every book ever printed scanned and readable (violating copyright...). But as Robb pointed out, they won't let you read a whole book.
  11. I interviewed them, you can listen on my webpage. Same group as the measures and two of the three guys recorded as Jimmie and Eddie on One Way. Here is the discography: Moneytown 806T-1209 Feel So Good / I Just Can't Win Moneytown SK3M-1209 Love Is Blind / Ugly Girl Moneytown 806T-1210 I'll Be Lost / London Bridge Is Falling Down Bleu Light 806T-1214 I Don't Care Anymore / She's My Baby Bleu Light 1234 I Don't Get Down Like That / Can You Handle It Bleu Light 201 Baby, Baby, Release Me / I Love You USA 811 You Say That You Love Me / She Needs Somebody Despenza 503 Girls Are Evil / Can You Handle It (as the Measures)
  12. if you subscribe to the "hot stamper" theory, the earlier press using the same plates would sound better
  13. ebay has a specific procedure for reporting copyright infringement. any user can go through the "report" button and there is a different mechanism that allows copyright owners themselves to make claims. If they aren't ignoring the claims, I don't think they would be liable. It's not like it's ebay's job to monitor random message boards.
  14. It's the allmusic.com text, allmusic sells their information to other music-related sites. Either a person picked the wrong jackie lee or possibly it was done automatically (so it might sort of be "computer generated").
  15. I'm pretty sure it means the first thing in your list. I remember in 1995 some jazz collector describing to me what a "private press" LP was, basically a record produced and pressed on a personally funded independent label. The term isn't that descriptive for 45s as most were "private presses" (also there is no clear line as to how big a tiny label has to be before it becomes non-private). The term is more useful in describing LPs as non-major label.
  16. i have a double of the other 13th amendment 45 (same louisiana group), norman veal and the 13th amendment "that's me without you" on Whit. In my opinion much better than "hard to be in love". Also surprisingly hard to find (although definitely not as rare as "hard to be in love"). It's like a VG promo, I would want $15 on it. I think there's a random hiss for one revolution of the record (like a second or two).
  17. here is a stock copy of the krystal 45: https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=360381881286#ht_500wt_754 Go with the feeling / What 'cha doin' for love
  18. you are correct, same group as the counts on yes
  19. You're discounting a very detailed and specific webpage with personal photos because you think someone was too old to like soul music? You know older people (like Bobby Robinson) had rap record labels when rap came out, right? You don't think an old person can have a soul music label?
  20. Kev Roberts told me that Johnnie Cochran (yes, the OJ Simpson Johnny Cochran) was Jackie Day's boyfriend and he owned the label.

    Bootlegs

    he shouldn't buy a manship guide to bootlegs as that's pretty old. the info has been rolled into the manship price guide. he should buy the latest manship price guide which includes info on most of the bootlegs.
  22. honestly, there are so many graphic designers out there not working that many will do it for free (or next to free) and you even offered some records as payment. If you can find an up and coming collector to do it I'm guessing you could do the trade.
  23. also there are 9 billion unemployed graphic designers. if your partner is a young guy i would ask him to reach out to his friends, etc. Or is there a college near you? You might want to flyer the college anyways, maybe putting some initial worse looking flyers there with contact info will get you some people who are or who know graphic designers.
  24. this came out on 2 labels, 20th century and I.N.S. the I.N.S. press is the original label and it is longer than the 20th century version (which is already like 4 minutes).
