  4. It appears that Goodway was owned by the Curtis Publishing Co. who decided to expand into records and tapes. Here's the names of some people who were in charge of the company. Not sure who owned Curtis Publishing though.
  5. Not sure what you're looking for help with ?
  6. The original title for "A Breath Taking Guy" beats Shirley Ellis by one word-
  7. U.S. albums were definitely shrink wrapped in the 60's. I believe I read somewhere (?) the 1st shrink wrapped album was Ray Charles "Modern Sounds In Country And Western Music". A google search also shows the process started around 1962.
  8. According to discogs- the originals have the same matrix info.
  9. Here's an article from Billboard that mentions Neptune but not Philadelphia International -
  10. Cashbox article announcing the beginning of Philly International (April 10, 1971) -
  11. One more for the list -
  12. 426 pounds- it's in the results for January 20th.
  13. My 108 has T1 on both sides. My 112 issue has T1 on both sides. My 112 promo has the same info but with an X on the "Festival Time" side.
  14. There's also this strange, obvious boot with Brenda Holloway's "When I'm Gone' on the flip side -
  15. I checked my Ric-Tics and found the same thing. The only stamped ones I have pre 119 are Edwin's 2 Hits- "Agent.." and "S.O.S. ...". Without seeing your 45's, I would guess they are probably all originals. Discogs does have a section showing which Ric-Tics were bootlegged.
  16. Just heard well known record producer Phil Spector passed away on January16th of natural causes .
  17. Not 100% sure but,I would almost swear my brother (or sister) bought these as new releases and they were in Hitsville sleeves- 1) Jimmy Ruffin- "What Becomes Of The Brokenhearted" 2) Elgins- "Heaven Must Have Sent You" 3) Shorty Long- "Function At The Junction"
  18. The Straker's version came out about 6 months before the Shipp 45-
  19. Record World July 24,1971-
  20. Not 100% sure they are the same people but, there were a Claude and Carl Feaster in the Doo Wop group the Chords. Claude is one of the writers of the Doo Wop Classic "Sh-Boom".
  21. From Cashbox July 31, 1971-
  22. Serenaders' Cashbox review from Feb. 15, 1964 issue. The Sammy Turner was a "Best Bet" in the Feb. 29, 1964 issue of Cashbox.
  23. According to Dave Moore's book "The Philly Sound", Bette Renne is Betty Renee Garvin. She was an early member of the Bluebelles but, left the group before they started recording. Two members of the Thrillettes were Sally and Vivian Hicks who were former members of the Femm-eles who recorded for the Kay and Bo-Kay-Lo labels
  24. I don't know anything else about the group. If anyone has more info- please post.
  25. The 1st article is from Cashbox May 11, 1963. The 2nd article from Feb. 8, 1964 mentions a Bobby Valenti 45. Does anyone know if this was part of the Jobete N.Y. ?
