  1. Are you saying the label is inherently bootleg looking (there are other real records on the label) or that that specific record looks like a bootleg? I'm pretty sure it is real on TCB.
  2. Joytones is first and rarer. It also came out on TCB as the Joytones. I can't answer the other questions.
  3. you could also listen to Richard Pegue talk about it himself in my interview: https://www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews...e-8-15-2004.mp3
  4. https://www.suntimes.com/entertainment/musi...-Deon27.article
  5. I actually don't specifically know about Bill Lasley, but in the Chicago soul book (which I assume you're also getting the info from), it says he also ran expo/opex and webcor and success in Iowa. I knew webcor and celtex were the same label, but I didn't know that other stuff, interesting.
  6. Penny was always officially owned by Morry Aplert (who owned the MET record shop in chicago) but after the creations 45 it was pretty much Richard Pegue running it. I think Morry ran the MET label himself around that time. Again, those first two 45s (joytones and creations) are from 1962 I think, then Pegue revived the label. It was still Morry's in name though.
  7. I'm very interested in hearing the two versions of the majjesttees as mentioned in the wants thread, if anyone has both or even knows how to tell them apart (so I can figure out which one I have and which one I need). Thanks.
  8. I had already sent the link to a bunch of people. The record was already psychedelic before the audio clip, the audio clip just takes it to the next level.
  9. I'm very interested in a second majjestees. Is there a label variation? Can you describe the audio difference and possibly how to tell via deadwax? The lead of the majjestees is angelo bond by the way.
  10. I'm going to put it on ebay now as "TWO KNOWN COPIES". I had googled it and there was youtube video of someone playing the record in a nightclub, so that makes "THREE KNOWN COPIES"
  11. crazy, I just found this a day ago and was wondering how there was a soul record on bell that I didn't know about. I'm also interested in knowing if this is known.
  12. someone forwarded me some awesome newspaper article about this (don't know if it was one of the ones linked above, I didn't check) where it says that the rolling stones album he was inspecting was available as a buy it now on ebay for $600.
  13. Can someone post audio now that refosoul is working? Thanks a lot.
  14. did you see him in ancient rome or something?
  15. thanks. Do you know the original source -- e.g. documents from Volt, an acetate from a collector, a real record, etc.? I've figured out that a lot of the chess 45s you and others have listed don't exist, probably because people got access to the chess records (I think there even was a book published a while back) that listed the 45s, even though they weren't actually released.
  16. I saw this listed on Dave Rimmer's Volt discography: 4094 -Cynthia & Imaginations - Nine Times Out Of Ten / Prove It To Me - 1973 Does this exist? I'm assuming that it doesn't, and if so, is a recording available somewhere? Thanks.
  17. yeah, that would be my guess too.
  18. I wasn't suggesting the grooves were different, I was suggesting that the outer edge and thickness and feel of the vinyl might be different.
  19. These records were not booted and are common. You are just describing normal label variations of these titles. Thanks.
  20. It is a bobby sanders production. It's a cover of dee edwards on tuba, strangely enough.
  21. I personally don't know if it is the same stampers, as I don't have an original copy to tell. However, I think the actual vinyl can be shaped differently because it has a different composition (e.g. 80s vinyl having the wider 80s-ish edge) even if the same stampers were used. A good way to tell is to check if the runout markings are identical.
  22. I really don't think he is selling them under the expectation that someone will buy them to resell. He's selling "the entire history of recorded music" or some BS like that, that you could claim to own. I wouldn't be surprised if someone bid on it too, it's less of a niche sale than a big northern soul collection, and 3 million isn't a lot of money to some people. Those aren't the people who would want to break it up to sell.
  23. OK. At this point I should stop talking about looking at the record and actually pull out the record and look at it when i'm at home...
  24. I would have to look at it again, but was the record produced in Philly? If not, where are you getting philly? Pookie and the spaniels were from Chicago (actually Gary, IN) and lived in Washington DC later in his life.
