yeah i saw someone (I assume the winner) post a pic of it on facebook just now. I don't know how many plays you can get out of that. you might be better off renting someone else's copy, you could get more plays.

Original Vinyl Only Do..not Quite
it's pretty much the standard for most types of dance djing now. there's a laptop with software that you hook turntables up to. On the turntables you use special serato "control discs" which let you manipulate the mp3 as if it were a record on the turntable. What's stupid is that there are all sorts of limited edition control discs that are now worth money (type serato into popsike).

Help. Any Info Please On These Two Female Artists
Betty Turner is from LA and has a lot of singles, I have at least 5 of them from the 60s. She has one or two more on blue star and at least two on infinity. She also recorded for liberty. I recently got the "wind" record, terrible imo, but the flip is really good. Edit: she might be from San Diego, she's from that area though.

If you're playing from a laptop with serato, you technically are playing vinyl

Books Update
we're pretty much in agreement on this even this is not totally clear -- e.g. what constitutes an "editorial context", especially if it's a for-profit business. For example, allmusic is filled with reviews of artists. At face value that's "editorial". However, they license out their content to tons of places, making it pretty commercial.

except in cases of fair use, which is admittedly a mess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_use it's pretty easy for soul publicity photos to know the copyright holder as most are watermarked at the bottom with the specific studio (e.g. kriegsman). I do know an IP lawyer but I haven't talked to him about the use of publicity photos in books. I have talked to a guy I play poker with, who is a music-related book publisher.

Books Update
This whole thread* is about the application of copyright to photos, nobody was saying they were public domain. I acknowledged that fair use is totally blurry but what I stated is the reality of how most book publishers and record labels treat the photos. Googling won't reveal that. I specifically heard something about Kriegsman photos going into the public domain, anyone have any info on that? *Edit: sub-thread

I think it got picked up by atlantic distribution which is also why it's more common. and you can get it on vinyl.

Who Were The Honeybees On Garrison?
also, are all copies styrene? because this one says "vinyl" (I know that doesn't mean anything) but it also looks different than other copies in popsike https://www.popsike.com/PROMO-NORTHERN-SOUL-45-THE-HONEY-BEES-LETS-GET-BACK-TOGETHER-CLEAN/290623692106.html

Who Were The Honeybees On Garrison?
I also have only seen white label copies of anything on Garrison. Maybe stock copies are also white label and DJ copies explicitly say DJ copy so it appears that they're all promos but aren't?

I thought about it and divine providence is definitely the most awesome reason to only play 45s. "GOD SAYS ONLY PLAY 45S"..

Little Tommy
His most common 45 (I don't know if this the one you wanted) is a nice deep soul cut called "I'm hurt". Little Tommy = Tyrone Thomas. He redid "I'm hurt" with the Whole Darn Family.

Gilda Woods - Dionn, Top And Bottom Etc?
this probably doesn't help, but here is a listing for jamie / guyden record distributor from 1967: it's from this: i have one more place i can look

Little Tommy
I think what happened is that two different sellers had a copy to sell and listed them within a couple of days of each other. Or they could have listed them at the same time but with different auction end times. That way when you look at ebay there are two copies for sale within a couple of days.

from merriam websters Definition of PROVIDENCE 1 a often capitalized : divine guidance or care b capitalized : God conceived as the power sustaining and guiding human destiny 2 : the quality or state of being provident mp3s sound worse because they don't have crackle and hiss like trashed records?

Books Update
This is true, but the fair use argument is entirely separate -- e.g. copyrighted photos, used in an educational / discographical context, for profit or not, potentially falls under fair use. Obviously everyone thinks everything is "fair use" but it's pretty standard for music book publishers and liner note publishers at this point (even though they are making a .profit) to claim fair use on publicity photos. The publicity photo aspect just adds to the argument -- e.g. the photos were sent out there to give a face to the group. It's also worth noting that "publicity photos" weren't always made for editorial context -- the whole reason that there is that huge globe poster collection is that the photos were taken and used so that the group's picture could be reproduced on the poster.

Back In Time With Google Map Usa
I'm not trying to start something personal with you. Especially as a moderator I should have stayed out of it, this quote "A lot of oppression and poverty that the music was born out of" just struck a nerve. I don't think there's a dialog going on at this point, I'm sorry if my post came across as attacking you and I'm sure you're a nice person. Sorry again.

Back In Time With Google Map Usa
I live in Chicago. This is your quote: You were responding to a post in a thread entirely about looking up places with google maps. Apparently you were talking about old photographs. You talked about the changing city without understanding how the city changed. The south side (with some exceptions like the Bronzeville neighborhood) has become more blighted when it was vibrant before, and many places look the same just run down -- you were saying that it looks totally different. Has the increased poverty inspired more music that you would enjoy? Do your current conditions inspire great music? Also, I did not see Nation of Islam members patrolling the streets (even though I do regularly see them on the corner selling the "final call" which is their newspaper). I'm not sure what you're referring to. The record murder rate is something that is happening this year though, not last year, and nobody is patrolling the streets to stop it. Anyways, I'm not trying to be a jerk, just pointing out that imagining what it must have been like and imagining that poverty inspired music (which were your words and which sounds like romanticizing to me), really is out of touch. I have no idea what the conditions are like where you live, nor do I pretend to.
