their joint production team was "jojo productions". They took on the pseudonyms of hammer and nail for some of their writings. Listen to the wasters interview on my site for a few details...
-
here's my demo. I always find it on yellow for some reason (still don't have it on red), but the Tenth Dimensions is always red.
-
I went to the arbutus show a couple of years ago, it totally sucked. Maybe it was because I wasn't there super early, but other people told me it used to be much better. I did meet a couple of dealers that I had only dealt with on ebay before, though.
-
I had a reverse situation once too. I bought a moovers "someone to fulfill my needs" on deep city from a UK seller (I'm in the US). There was no photo in the auction. I sent it back as a bootleg because the label on that totally looks like a bootleg (it's like all block text with no deep city logo). The seller was like "I didn't know it had been booted" and gave my money back. I found out later that it WAS an original. I don't remember who it was, but I apologize to whoever it was if they're on here. I wish I still had the title, still need it.

I got burned on ebay on this a year ago, I bought it from some German seller and bought manship's bootleg guide 3 months later. Of course the guy wouldn't take it back (even though the picture was still up and it was not an og from the photo).
-
my copy has "unsatisfied woman" on the flip credited to BARBARA STANT but the soul harmony singles book lists it as crediting JEAN BATTLE. I've seen it your way before. Not sure which one is rarer. I love the cut "you know that I love you".
-
No. The spoilers on tobin/turbo is new york / new jersey. The spoilers who did "spoilers rap" is the persuasions on erica, from Chicago. The persuasions on erica has "Summer Ride" on the a-side. Leading that group is Larry Johnson, who was also lead of the Majestic Arrows, Elevation, and who was a member of the doowop group the moroccos and who was in an 80s version of the el doradoes. He's also a different Larry Johnson than the person who was with the Artistics.
-
The Tobin release is totally different, though, and (IMHO) way inferior to the Turbo one. It's not just a different mix, it sounds almost like a different group singing. The Tobin release almost sounds like a White group. It's worth getting, but the Turbo one is way better, at least if you're a sweet soul collector. The Tobin record also came out on Blue and Yellow labels, I think the Yellow is rarer.
-
The book lists the a-side as "never seen a stranger". It must be a ballad side since the book lists it as the a-side (even though the side you posted is the "real" a-side as it shows up as a double sided promo).
-
this turns up occasionally, but I've always seen it as a double-a side (so I avoided buying it), but the soul harmony singles book has this listed with a flip. I've never seen it as an issue with the flip. I haven't been looking really hard, though.
-
Baby Washington has a happy birthday record on Chess, she's singing about how she's sad to not be with her man on his birthday. There is a birthday record by a group called "friends." There's also Stevie Wonder's big hit in the US in the 80s.
-
That record is hard to find. I have an acetate that I bought off of the producer, who is Stormy (the guy who recorded on Twinight). Still don't have an original. The girls singing background on that record and on the other star-vue 45 are the Lovelites.
-
If it is, the website is wrong. I live in Chicago. Magic Touch was based in Chicago in the late 70s (and possibly the early 60s) but the label owner, Lenny Lacour was primarily Milwaukee based. It was based solely in Milwaukee around the time that the Mar-Js was released. There is a photo of the Mar-Js in some Milwaukee soul comp. Either way, it's a great record and I hope you sell it.
-
I asked Philly expert Dave Brown about this a while back, he says John Madera told him that the Moods have absolutely no connection to the Volcanos (which I know everyone from the collector community thinks) but that they ARE the same group as the Chargers on Vanguard.
-
this is a milwaukee record, not a detroit record.
-
I have gotten several items from Lars over the years with no problems, and I'm overseas (US), plus he was friendly on several occasions and gave me advice on some items on my want list, totally unsolicited. -bob in Chicago
-
also, I still need an mp3 of "little golden band" (and hopefully the flip, but at least little golden band) to give to the guys in the group, any help appreciated. Thanks.

Hi -- not trying to spam the site with every interview I do, but I haven't done one in a minute and there's a bunch of northern interest in the interview I just did today... In addition to the Visitors (who are the same group as the Mist on Twinight), there's info about Mel Britt, Eugene Smiley and the Essence of Love, Living Color on Madhatter, etc... check it out at the bottom of: www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html thanks, Bob

it's a good ballad, but it's not a "group", there's no vocal harmony on it.

Wanted - Shirley Karol - Just To Make You Happy - Dakar
boba replied to Mark Bicknell's topic in Record Sales
in case anyone cares for random trivia, Shirley Karol was the female member of the Dukays... -
I got the book, but I'm in the US. Very few Black groups in there, though. Hidden somewhere in the middle of the book is a photo of the Dream Team, which is pretty cool. The book fills in a ton of info about groups mainly unknown to me. I bought it off a seller on EBAY who was selling for the same price as the book sellers, maybe you can get international if you look there??
-
Lew Stanley recently had the corvettes, although maybe you knew that because I think you were asking for his number in another post.
-
I know someone else posted a want of this recently and got it, plus I just missed it in someone's sales section. I've been looking for this for a while, anyone have a copy to set sale me? I'm in Chicago and this is one of the few Chicago titles I still need. Please let me know. Thanks.
-
This used to be around all the time but I haven't seen it recently... I just noticed my copy has a crack in it! I want a non-cracked copy. Anyone have copy for sale (e.g. strong VG or better)? What's the current value on this? Thanks.
-
I'll go second in line if someone has another copy to sell...
