  1. the soul harmony singles book is wrong, the last title is an unrelated garage record by "the interns", it tooks me years to figure that out! There is just 717 and 729. There are weird similar errors in the book, for example, the first shades of brown record listed is an unrelated garage group called "the shades".
  2. I think there's probably a lot of unreleased chess stuff, for example there was at least one unreleased Gems cut on the Gems comp. Unfortunately, I don't think there's unreleased Raynard Miner stuff as his studio got broken into and all the masters / acetates stolen (this happened in the 60s).
  3. I've seen this at least a couple of times on ebay, John Anderson had one up on ebay once a couple of years ago.
  4. It's definitely not a JM typing error, it's listed that way elsewhere. My question is just whether there really is a different track called that or that it's listed that way on the label but the same track.
  5. I love how he says "HO-ney" (like all southern sounding) on both I want you to make my life over and on Spent a lot of years. Spent a lot of years is very hard to find as an issue with the flip.
  6. yeah, there are a lot of odd odessa titles outside of the common ones. I will pm you audio of the other devils 45 later, it has a deep soul side that would appeal to the deep soul collectors I think. I have a double of the rare gary brown on magic touch if you need that and want to trade (it's a much better version than the brownie 45).
  7. interesting, I would like to know this too...
  8. Mel Britt was originally from Anderson, Indiana. He sang in the Versatiles on Staff and later the Visitors (he's on the Dispo record and sings lead on the Mist on Twinight, who are the Visitors). A lot of people have talked to him, someone on here actually gave me his number. I've been trying to set up a radio interview but he's hard to get ahold of.
  9. I think the betty moorer actually has 2 numbers on cuca (same release) but i've seen neither. I have the two devils 45s and the step by step. I have one of the little artie and the pharoahs 45s and it's not very good, I think there are two other ones. are any of those good?
  10. this was just on ebay a month or two ago as a promo with the same song on both sides on warner brothers, I was surprised because I had never seen it on WB before... I was wondering if it came as a stock copy with both sides. Then like a day later there was another innovation II title on warner brothers that I had never seen on WB before, I can't remember what it is now. The quadraphonics are actually from Milwaukee, by the way, Harvey Scales was their manager.
  11. yeah, I have the bootleg / monkey time and have seen it for sale a few times, but never even knew about that other one. have you ever had or have ever seen that betty moorer and the ambassadors 45 on cuca? Also, have you seen some rock LP by the Bonnevilles that Sam Pace said had the first instance of the esquires on record?
  12. This is hard to find, I've been looking for it since Jimmy let me borrow his copy a a year ago. I think this also came out on a mexican EP (I'm not 100% sure, they had a EP and tracks on an LP from CBS mexico, I think this was one of the EP tracks).
  13. Thanks for your help, I will ask Pruter about the papers you refer to.
  14. Thanks. But that's sort of what I was asking about the release numbers -- where is that info coming from, is it from the actual label records? If so, how come there are holes where people don't know some of the numbers. Thanks.
  15. I have a copy of this in my trade box if anyone has a good group soul (northern or group soul) trade. I think it's like strong VG to VG+, I would have to dig it out.
  16. I've had at least 3 copies of this and passed on a couple beat up copies (I won't anymore I guess). Obviously it's not common, but some of the other magic touch titles are rarer, like "welcome home" (that someone mentioned already). There is a wikipedia article which is missing a lot of titles, but it has this: Cuca J-1271 Harvey & The Seven Sounds "Independency/ I Want To Apologize" that's crazy, i've never seen or heard of that cuca title. I recorded all of Harvey's singles for him, it took up two CDs, I thought I had all the singles but I guess I'm missing that cuca title...
  17. I was just looking through a wand discography and it has ernie hines listed as #1150. It's one of the USA titles. Does anyone know if this exists? It would be cool to get for the hard titles (such as the honey bees) a confirmed / denied listing on some of the titles. Also, assuming that these numbers came out of the actual label catalog (e.g. if they were never actually released the numbers had to come from some file or someting), why are there missing numbers? Thakns.
  18. I would agree with this, but one thing you can do that's kind of cool with a glossy Lp cover to remove writing -- you can run a dry erase marker on top of the original marker until you re-wet it, then you get wipe it off. Don't do it to a paper record label though.
  19. if it's not sold at $20 that doesn't even make it $20 much less $100
  20. thanks for the clarification... do you think paulette and the cupids includes the same paulette as on contact?
  21. this is just the bobbettes under a different name, flip is a bobby womack cover, also comes as a promo with the same song on both sides
  22. edie and the channels on herald is good northern, there is a rarer press of it I think by edith alexander on another label that I can't remember... patti and the emblems 45s on herald are all pretty good but not valuable.
  23. I think it was the same person who had the bw souls on round, which used to be an expensive funk record before a zillion copies came out.
  24. Sorry, I didn't read your post carefully enough before responding -- you already said the tracks, plus you said harry williams, who was in bloodstone, is credited, so it's the same group and probably unreleased.
