Here's a survey from a record store I used to go probably from the early part of 1974 ....

Dontells - Superb Unreleased Soul Sides from 1965 - Now on 45!
The Yank replied to Sean Hampsey's topic in All About the SOUL
Thanks for the tip! Just bought a copy- now there are 4 copies left. -
This is the first time I've ever seen an Okeh with the name in black. The MONO on the right side is also something that I've never seen before.

That looks exactly like the old 45sleeves.com web site. Thanks for posting !!

I just checked 5-6 WB vinyl promos and most DON"T have a sharp edge.

The version of "Hold On" by the Radiants on the "Just Keep On Dancing" CD is much better than the released version. Those annoying back up singers that sound like they came from the Opera Company down the street are gone and the song sounds much better.

Here's a few more ......
-
Going slightly off topic- where did the version of the Platters' "With This Ring" on Kent's Cellar Of Soul Volume Three come from ?? The 45 and album version both clock in at 2:24, this version seems slower and has an extra verse not on the 45- "got nothing but this old heart of mine, Baby please believe in me, Girl you know sweetheart, I'll always try to keep you satisfied...."

The small center hole was the standard format for the "Little Lp's" for jukeboxes .
-
There's a banjo featured in the break on the long version of Al Downing's "I'll Be Holding On".
-
"Show Girl" was unreleased until "A Cellar Full Of Motown!" Volume Two in 2005.
-
As far as entertainment goes- try to get a copy of the Chicago Reader ( its a free newspaper)- there should be some good info in there. And it is cold- high today is supposed to be 12 degrees !

According to "The Complete Motown Singles- Volume 5-1965, the Vows also had a 1962 single on the Markay label- "I Wanna Chance"/ "Have You Heard". The lineup on that single was James Moore, Helen Simpson, Ralph Chestnut and 2 group members remembered as Ted and Little Johnny. The group on "Tell Me" and "Buttered Popcorn" had James Moore, Bobby Solomon and Joe Lawson. The group's membership is described as "fluid" so they weren't sure who the other members were on the V.I.P. single.

Roddie Joy - He's So Easy To Love - Red Bird Demo
The Yank replied to Philly's topic in Look At Your Box
I've got a "Remember (Walking In The Sand)" by the Shangri-las promo on vinyl. -
-
Here's a definite original 45 (pre- Chess distribution). Not sure if this has the same text as your copy.
-
Impressions- "Keep On Pushin' "
-
I'd go for the already mentioned Stevie Wonder, Donny Hathaway- "This Christmas", Darlene Love- "Christmas (Baby Please Come Home)" or the Ronettes "Sleigh Ride"

I like collector's frenzy better- you can use it as much as you want to. Popsike will let you use it , but after awhile will ask you for a "donation" or will just kick you off the web site.

Is anyone else having trouble getting on the web site? I haven't been able to get on for at least a week.

Two great unreleased tracks- 1) Carla Thomas- "I'll Never Stop Loving You" 2) Otis Redding- "Loving By The Pound" and Darrell Banks- "I'm The One Who Loves You"
-
If this is the version that starts off with "If you came out here to party, the sound of Motown is what you're gonna hear...", the Mastercuts CD version credits it to Detroit Sound which is a good cover up name. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
-
"The Boy Next Door" was the A side of the single- I remember it getting a lot of airplay on Chicago Soul stations at the time. Always thought the "Kiss My Love Goodbye" demo was a bootleg ????
-
Almost 100% sure that the labels went in this sequence- Solid Red, Red with Columbia background, and then Grey. At this time most Columbia demos were the A side in mono and stereo versions. Don't know why they would have released a single sided demo of the B side.
