  1. Vista (Volunteers In Service To America) was seen as a domestic version of the Peace Corps. It was part of Lyndon Johnson's Economic Opportunity Act of 1964.
  2. Probably not- I wondered about that when i saw it on you tube.
  3. Mary Wheeler also does a fine job with "Prove It"
  4. The picture does show the set having 3 CD's so I guess there's an error in the listing. Thanks for checking !
  5. There's only one version of this right? If I go on U.S. Amazon, it doesn't show a track listing and it lists number of discs as 1 .
  6. I think I'll go with James Phelps with Satin in a very close second place.
  7. Has to be included -
  8. This didn't happen to me but, a few years back someone I know won a lot of 200+ 45's. He asked the seller if he had any more 45's could he just throw them in? The seller threw in 10 + mint copies of Detroit Soul "All Of My Life".

  14. The biggest difference is between the vocal versions- The Kent release is the one you've heard played out all these years. The Kent select release is the longer version with the extra verse that kicks in around 1:14-
  15. For some unknown reason, Paul Riser arranged the long version but David Van De Pitte arranged the short version ?? Except for the long Spanish version (4:05) which reverts back to Van de Pitte.
  16. This promo also shows Mr. Van de Pitte as arranger-
  17. The regular U.S. issue also credits David Van De Pitte as arranger. Not sure what's going on with the U.S. promo -
  18. That was the last release before Motown picked up the label and started the 5000 series.
  19. Haven't bought much lately but these three were recently delivered- Little Herman- "Gotta Keep Walking"/ "I'm Gonna Put The Hurt On You" - Arlen Mike and Bill- "Somebody's Gotta Go" - Movin' Up And I finally tracked down this unreleased Irma Thomas tune-
  20. Here's another one for the list-
