I seemed to buy a lot of Mojo singles at the time of release. To me the standard was high, up there with other UK labels that sourced from various US labels. This is a great double sider from Art Gentry - Breakthrough/Wonderful Dream. Written and produced by George Jackson.

The 3 on discogs at the moment place it between £40 and £50. John

One I'd forgotten about whilst going through the shelves. 33 1/3 - Treat Her Right. This clip has parts 1 and 2.

The great Johnnie Taylor - One Thing Wrong With My Baby. From the Taylored In Silk album.

Joanne Vent with a version of Ruby Johnson's "Weak Spot" from 1969 . Lp only, very few other recordings by her.

A beautiful crossover from me today that seems hard to come by. 2001: Black Essence - Change In My Life

One of his best - Clarence Reid - You Knock Me Out

Another one I'd forgotten about. If I remember correctly from a Globe Records soul pack fro 1972. A well spent 10 quid, about half a weeks wages. Larry Willis - Lickin' Stick

Been following this thread for for the past few years that it's been running. Even after nearly 50 years of collecting new records are discovered and added to the wants list. I've not posted on this thread before, but I'm going through my collection and adding to Discogs. I came across this by OV Wright - I'm In Your Corner. I have it on a Vocalion Demo. One I'd forgotten about.

Often bought records I've already got. So I've recently began listing onto Discogs. I've already found a number of "doubles". I've also found a number of records I've forgotten about found in Bristol junk shops 40 years ago, one on discogs for £200 and one for £100. Entering on Discogs is a lot quicker than spreadsheets, well it is for me. You also get your records highlighted when you look up an artist or label. John

No skips, no warps, no reversed labels, no download (no shit). Outstanding for £3.50 a pop for each. John

https://www.rarenorthernsoul.com/Rare-70s-80s/3014/didnt-do-it-to-you/#product Does this sound about right? I think this is the copy I have, from Soul Bowl for a fiver. John

John Definitely the same shop. John Gough had a box left on the counter, 40p a pop, the shop sold them on his behalf. Although memory fades after 40 years I,m sure thats where I got The Carstairs. All John Gough's records had his initials on in a fancy scroll. John

Dean Saying Picton Street was ran by an old couple makes me feel bloody ancient. I was in there for 2/3 times a week from 1970 til the early 80's. Ray, the younger of the 2 was about 30 when I first went. I went mainly for contemporary stuff, but a collector called John Gough, who I never met, had a box of recent stuff (US and UK) that he must have got fed up with quickly at 40p each. This was how I got my pink Carstairs. I used to get around to a dozen or so junk shops in Bristol that always had boxes of records but I never knew about the one on Christmas Steps, famous for it's Joke Shop. One record shop on Gloucester Rd, Disc 'N Tape, had a box on the counter full of current UK demos for 40p. I always assumed they were left by a Rep. I got half the Grapevine singles on demo and a lot of Motown, including "Rode by the Place" Green Demo. Was I the only one doing this at the time? John

Paul Smith - I'll Run, on Jacklyn John

Lee Dorsey - Wonder Woman

The unknown sounds like Lee Dorsey - Wonder Woman. Unmistakable New Orleans John

Not sure if it's been posted already, but Bristol Showcase are taking bookings for a one off showing (at the moment) for Sat 18th Oct. Just bought 6 tickets, getting excited now. Taking the wife and kids (kids? the oldest is 31). John
