  1. it came out on a light yellow 31170 and the multicolored PS1. I only have the yellow one so I can't compare if they're the same version. I think sebastian posted once saying that they were different. I have every other FJ Jones that I know of on the label and have been trying to collect the label, there are some holes before 10 that I don't know about (and some weird numbers on the label that don't fit in).
  2. columbus group is a white group from boston. Dee Irvin's group was Native American (hence the name).
  3. he does it when actually singing at least once, for example, in love's gonna rain down on you.
  4. not in popsike because it's too cheap
  5. When I asked Tufo why the New World record came out on Polydor instead of Curtom, he just told me that they were trying to work with as many different labels as possible to see what sort of effect it would have at the time. The Patti Jo seems similar.
  6. i think joe bataan's version has a little spanish in it
  7. it would also be great if people had more specific subject lines than "think about it" in all about the soul
  8. thanks everyone for listening
  9. I don't have any numbers that aren't listed (except I do have the juice as a stock), sorry. Thanks.
  10. I don't have my records sorted by label but if you post 175-188 I might be able to help you with the missing numbers if I see something missing from your list and think of it.
  11. this record was a hit in Chicago (apparently much more so than anywhere in ohio), and in Chicago it always turns up red
  12. he was selling off his records in the last 5 years before he died, I doubt his daughter would want it back. It probably came from his house if you got it recently. He was like 100 years old when he died, it was amazing to talk to him about Chicago because he was on the south side since it was stockyards. Once he was telling me a story about someone he was hanging out with and he paused trying to remember the person in the story, he was like "the guy who could run really fast" and I was like "jesse owens?" and he said yes. I couldn't believe someone was telling me a story about hanging out with jesse owens.
  13. Are you sure the missing numbers are not DOUBLE SOUL titles? for example, 108 is the bronzettes, 112 is the scoop sanders, etc. I actually had two of the green grunchions (it's a "G" not "C", the title is explained in my conservatives interview, it was based on a herb kent skit -- the conservatives "crunching song" was supposed to be "grunchions song"). I think I gave one to collector Dante in Chicago though, I would have to check.
  14. I love how your record is stamped with legendary (and recently deceased) DJ Richard Stamz' address
  15. i have some of the gaps, will try to look into them and post some tonight. one not mentioned here is by the "green grunchions all stars".
  16. Hi. Today on my radio show I interviewed Flint Lloyd, member of the St. Louis soul group the Salvadors. Flint came from a musical family -- his aunts sang in different gospel groups and one of his uncles sang modern harmony with Rex Middleton and the Hi Fis. Flint began singing with his family in church and singing modern harmony at an early age. In the late 50s Flint joined the group the Salvadors, singing with his brother Donald; the group mainly sang modern harmony. The group was soon discovered by St. Louis DJ E Rodney Jones (who also was a DJ in Chicago). Jones became the group's manager and took the group to Chicago to record for Chuck Colbert's Nike label. The group's single "A-E-I-O-U" / "Daddy Said" got some play on Chicago and St. Louis radio. The group stayed together for a few years and soon broke up. Around the same time, Lloyd was also a member of another St. Louis group called the Alpines. The group sang backup on a St Louis record by White singer Little Mojo called "Paula" (Mojo was backed by the local St. Louis band the Caravans, who were credited on the record). The Alpines broke up in the early 60s. The Salvadors also reformed and broke up (with the same lineup) several times. In the late 60s, the Salvadors reformed with the same lineup as the earlier record. E Rodney Jones took them to Chicago to record again. The group recorded "Stick by me baby" / "I wanna dance" for the Wise World label in Chicago; Flint's brother Donald sang lead on both tracks. "Stick by me baby" was written by Jo Armstead. The record did not get any play in Chicago but did get some play in St. Louis. The group broke up for a final time a couple years after "Stick by me baby" was released. Different group members continued to sing in other local groups but none that recorded. However, in the 70s, "Stick by me baby" became a big "Northern Soul" record in England, played by the DJs as a dance record, and is now highly collectible. Two members of the Salvadors are still around today. You can check out my interview with Flint at the bottom of my interviews page at:https://www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html . Thanks for your interest. thanks, Bob
  17. some us ad uses this song, i think for claritin or some other allergy mediciation
  18. can anyone post audio of the vv and the superbs? I have never seen it but a collector (who also had a photo of the group) assured me he has a copy of the record.
  19. Thanks Matt. The problem is that if you look at popsike, there's clearly many legit variations of the record from different plants, so I'm not sure if all legit presses were done with the same plates as yours. I think it's safe to say that no legit press has 65L though. Thanks.
  20. Just following up to say that the ebay seller gavin6783, Gavin was super honest, helpful, and friendly. Thanks.
  21. I emailed him and said I doubt that it was released
  22. the just brothers looks like a rare lupine original and not a bootleg
  23. no, according to posts on this board (I don't know first hand), it's from delaware and the mello souls are somehow related to silas phipher and the mellow fellows on candi
  24. never knew about an alternate version, thanks.
  25. no, this is the same label as marvin sims, etc.
