  1. The Jo-By was the 1st release (May, 1967), the Tag came out in September.
  2. I like the label credits on the Jo-By copy- the writer (Joel Turnero) and the Supervisor (Skip Layne) are the same person.
  3. One more for the list -
  4. Was surprised to hear "Don't Send Nobody Else" in the background of this tv ad. Not sure where this version came from .
  5. I believe King used the white label promos until late '67/ early '68 when they starting using the yellow label for promos.
  6. Here's another version but I don't think it's the one you're looking for -
  7. According to discogs, it is the same group.
  8. Okay now I see what you mean. I guess it is possible that they used the other United Record Distributors that was based in Puerto Rico !
  9. Pretty sure this is the same person -
  10. Let's try this again.... The United Record Distributors is the same company that was listed in the original post from 1968 and is also listed on the Conservatives 45 as "United Record Distributed" . In this ad from 1971, the company is still at the same address and also still involves the Leaner family -
  11. Manship's 6th edition doesn't mention a bootleg. I did find an "unofficial release" on discogs which added 20 + seconds to the "Village Of Tears" .
  12. Here's a list of companies United distributed in 1968 -
  13. Billboard August 17, 1968 -
  14. You might have been thinking of something like this which looks like a demo but is the regular issue -
  15. Another strange item I just noticed on Soulfulkindamusic is Wand #1141- Honey Bees- "Never In A Million Years"/ "Let's Get Back Together". Anyone ever seen one??
  16. On Soulhawk's "You Stood Me Up" on you tube, someone listed the rest of the group as Russell Jarvis, Joe Johnson and Donald Lowe. Can anyone verify this ?
  17. According to "Soul Harmony SIngles 1960-1990", Jan Jones and John Finch were in the Specials.
  18. I've never heard of the Fipa label- did you mean Fip ?
  19. Sometimes Record companies don't use logic though.
  20. I would think the copy I posted would have been the 1st pressing since there is no release # on the labels and a different publisher for "You Stood Me Up".
  21. Not sure about the variations but I have an early release (??) of #512 that has handwritten publisher and release#'s and a different publisher (Merrill ) for "You Stood Me Up" -
  22. There are THREE Specials releases on Satch.
  23. I would have to agree completely. His Brunswick work pre "Whispers" doesn't do much for me at all. One of his strangest albums was "You Ain't Heard Nothing Yet" the track listing says it all -
