thanks, that sucks. i don't think the person is lying if they are saying it is their father. the only thing that might be in question is that they don't say exactly who their dad is, maybe it was another singer (seems doubtful though). Does anyone have any information about whether nightchill is percy and them besides the john percy hargrove writing credit? anyone know exactly how they were related to the versatones? thanks in advance.

no boot or repress is listed in the latest manship guide

Does anyone have a contact for John Percy Hargrove of Percy and them? I heard he was on facebook, I searched facebook but found someone in DC so I don't know if it's the right person. I want to email him to confirm some information for the new volume of soul harmony singles (for example, is Percy and them really exactly the same group as Nightchill). Thanks in advance.

they also have a nice curtis mayfield produced cut on roulette. i'm interested in the source for the ben krause thing, googling reveals nothing

US record comes with a cool pic sleeve

whispers - bingo chuck jackson - for all times four tops - nature planned it eddie kendricks - people hold on five stairsteps first LP family circle first LP
-
i'm not sure. it does look a little more "local" and is a smaller label but who knows
-
i have the other 3, never heard of this on antone. soul harmony singles says the firebird is 3 years later from 1972 (says the guyjim is 69).
-
the detroit antone (the numbers do line up with the detroit label)? isn't this a new york record? anyone got a scan or have this?
-
thanks for adding / clarifying, sorry rod and dave and everyone for incomplete / inaccurate info
-
I think the styrene copies are legal jamie guyden reissues from the 80s, like the Arctic reissues. The difference is very clear, it's styrene and the font / print is different.
-
thanks everyone for the info. Given the debate here on the race of the MVPs, Greg, did you happen to ask Bobby whether the MVPs were White or Black?
-
this also came out on firebird

I was looking at the Gents on Paramount (great record) trying to figure out where it was from and I see the record is produced by Bobby Flax and Lanny Lambert. I googled and found that the pair wrote a bunch of pop songs and some soul songs. Anyone know where they were based or more info about them? I can't find like a webpage devoted to either one. Bobby Flax became some sort of executive at EMI. Apparently Dana Plato was married to a guitarist named Lanny Lambert but I can't imagine it's the same guy, he would be too old right? Anyone have any more info? Thanks.

i think it is, there is something about it in chicago soul i think. i'm not sure if gouster was a herb kent word though. the other two are.
-
no, a fern is the girls' body ("cute feznecky with a mellow fern"). a gouster is a style of dressing. herb kent later tried to get "hammer" to replace "feznecky" but it didn't catch on.

two copies on gemm, beat up for $6, clean for $40
-
in my experience their other 45 is a little harder to find. i have this one with a really cool custom sleeve, it is a stamped on a regular white sleeve with the title, artist, and a drawing of some legs

2 Of The Most Exciting Semi Known Rarities On The Scene
boba replied to Paul-s's topic in Look At Your Box
the most common soul 45 in the label in my experience is marv williams and sound unlimited. it's pretty good. -
i have a great modern record by the greer brothers from like '79, exact same group. never ever turns up. the duke record does turn up. there were other bussing records, for example, the chilites "yes I'm ready if I don't get to go".
-
I'm pretty sure there's a japanese rare soul LP coffee table book
-
you know "feznecky" means girl, right? it's herb kent speech. that record is a direct reference to herb kent "the kool gent".
-
I'm looking for the festivals "Hey Girl" on SMASH, not Blue Rock. I love this group, this is the last record of theirs I need. Please PM with price. Thanks.

lps never went away for collecting. many more people collect lps than 45s. it just doesn't appear that way if you are focused on northern soul

I'm looking here at the podcast stuff: https://www.apple.com/itunes/podcasts/specs.html I will try to hack together an xml file sometime today to see if I can get it right
