    Does "110th and Lenox Avenue" contain a vocal by the Isleys or is this an instrumental track? It isn't listed in Joel Selvin's "Here Comes The Night" which has a very extensive Bert Berns discography. Also, the only other time I've seen The I.B. Special listed as an artist was on "Spanish Twist" which was an instrumental version of "Twist and Shout" -

    Here's 2 copies to compare- the 1st is an original, the 2nd the boot with iffy text -

    This talent directory from late 1964 (Billboard 12/26/64 - page 110) shows Tommy as a Golden World (????) artist. Does anyone have any more info on this ?

    Here's a Shorty Long "Function..." on both sides as an issue on red vinyl -

    Here's an Originals with "Good Night Irene" on both sides. I think there's a mislabeled Blinky also -

    I think what you have is a mislabeled promo- I've seen other Motown 45's that are on red vinyl ( which was used for promo copies) with regular issue labels. Here's a red vinyl Jimmy Ruffin that has "What Becomes..." on both sides -

    I don't think the record was next to the original Winley release but next to the reissue on Lost Nite Records which owned Crimson -

    Every copy I've ever seen (on line of course) has been Al Scott- white label Genuine, Mr. Soul - black label Genuine.

    Thanks for posting! Sad to hear Candi is having so much trouble getting royalty payments from such a large corporation.

    Howard for me too !!

    I think someone got Helena and Sheila Ferguson mixed up. I've always seen Helena referred to as a "New York singer" not a Philly singer. I did a quick google search and found out she was married to Lincoln Kilpatrick who produced "Where's The Party" and "My Terms".

    Going way back- here's Luther as a teen on the U.S. children's show "Sesame Street". That's him in the red and white striped shirt. t-

    You might be okay- every original I saw on popsike did not have producer and arranger credits on the label. The Canadian reissue on the orange label did have the extra credits though.

    Here's an ad for Juicy Fruit gum -

    From the bio sheet that came with promo copies of the "Never Too Much" album -

    Your 45 was pressed sometime before 1962, when Atlantic added the "fan" or spiral on the left side of the 45 label-

    Luther also did the lead on "Hot Butterfly (aka "Papillon" by Chaka Khan) for Bionic Boogie
  23. The Yank
    Every copy on popsike that has the label with bars is described as a "1970's second pressing".

    Ray must have liked the song- here's another version he did with Leela James
