  1. the moments also do a nice version of "how can I love you"
  2. Here's a grading system I haven't seen, "G but VG+ with any click / crackle software" https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...em=290240441859 I'm going to list one that is "G but VG+ if if it were in better condition"
  3. this is the best post on soul source ever
  4. no, it's not a recent reissue, it's a reissue on I think the group's own label from about 1970. I would give more than $5 for it to file because it's cool and I have the other #s, but I wouldn't give you $100 for it.
  5. all the stardom 45s are reissues of the previous material, I have 3500, 3501, 3502 (a couple of which are also hard), but I've never seen 3503 as you note.
  6. haim's auction didn't have it with a damaged label and my friend has a copy without the damaged label also. probably just the music city ones were damaged (weren't there a bunch of stuff with damaged labels from that)? I heard some copies of the diabolics "with a broken heart" came out of there (the 2nd sundance title), I'm still looking for that, do you know where I can get one?
  7. is the drop imminent because copies have surfaced or just because it's overhyped and overvalued?
  8. nice mix. I was annoyed that you posted this up right before the brothers unique was ending on ebay, though. I still got it at a decent price, I guess it wasn't really affected. You got stupid money for that copy with messed up labels recently, I was sure this one would go higher, the only other one I've ever seen for sale is that one that Haim had up.
  9. Justin, do you know what the connection is to McFunks on Raw, if any? I think there's the same producer on both?
  10. the volt group is the same group, there's even Bacone in the writing credits.
  11. the moneytown group is the usa group. No connection to the phillips group. I interviewed them, you can listen at: www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html
  12. I don't think you're going to find this record here, it's very hard, probably as rare as the marlynns on daran (and written by two of the members) but not known. I can record it for you if you want.
  13. I think both groups just came out on seventy seven / sound stage seven, but I don't know if tehre is any other connection. Jackey Beavers produced the continental showstoppers (which is why they did his song) but not the Valentines I think.
  14. Hi. Is there any way anyone can post a recording of the flip of this in refosoul? I would like to hear it. Thanks.
  15. thanks everyone for the feedback, i appreciate it.
  16. I don't understand how this was covered up as carla thomas, Tut Sutton is a guy (I'm not doubting you, I'm just surprised). He also had at least one other 45 on Federal, it's not that good (it's as little emmet sutton). He was a local blues guy, probably had some records too that I never noticed.
  17. I don't know the violet group personally but I have talked to people who have talked to them and someone gave me the group member listing. I did do an interview with the group that became the constellation group, it's on my webpage, and I can tell you 100% that that group is not the violet group.
  18. their track "the wiggle" is almost identical except that they say "the wiggle" instead of "the penguin" at the chorus. It also came out on Jerk records.
  19. Thanks, I guess it's still better than me saying 'uhhhhhhhhh' a million times like I do on my music shows.
  20. Hi. Today on my radio show I interviewed two members of the Magnetics. The Magnetics are the first group I've interviewed from Cabrini Green (the North Side Chicago housing project most famously depicted in the TV sitcom "Good Times"). The group formed in the late 50s and were neighbors and classmates with the Impressions, Billy Butler and the Enchanters, and artists like Major Lance and Jerry Butler. Johnny McKinney was originally from Albion, Michigan and first recorded as a solo artist for Chicago's Mad label in the late 50s and recorded for New York's Clock record label in 1960. Johnny met the Magnetics in the late 60s and became the replacement for their lead who was drafted and killed in Vietnam. The group's first recordings were released in the late 60s on the tiny Sable label out of the South Side of Chicago. The group then cut one more record on Calvin Carter's J-V label (his attempt to revive the Vee Jay label from bankruptcy). Johnny McKinney began working in Milwaukee, and ended up playing on the scene and recording two records there as solo artist Johnny Lemac. Johnny continued to be involved with music and still runs McKinney music on the south side of Chicago, where he sells musical instruments and gives lessons. Andrew Griffin also tells interesting stories about growing up in Cabrini Green. Check out the interview at the bottom of my webpage: https://www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html Thanks for your interest, Bob p.s. thanks to John Anderson for the lead and Chalky for sending me audio files to play during the interview and give to the group members.
  21. sounds definitely white to me, the group has two records on this label right? 1200 pounds seems over the top to me too, but I can't tell you what it changed hands for privately recently so I don't know all the details
  22. this specific lujuna number comes with 2 b-sides, one is a dark pink label and the other is lighter pink
  23. it's a decent sweet soul track, also came out on adell with an instrumental flip.
  24. the best thing about this auction by far is that the record is described as "77% new"
  25. I didn't think it was related to the carolinas group (who were also white, right?) but I did assume it was a soul record, thanks for the reply.
