New release - 2 x Hit and Run 45s - Jo Jo Benson + Bernard Drake

 

2 NEW RELEASES - DUE : 29 May 2020
MAILING : Wed 27 May 2020

HR 1517 JO JO BENSON - You're Losing Me / I'll Be The One

I remember during the days of Grapevine 2000 going to the studios in Houston with JA to try and work a deal for Huey's masters. There was a legal thing going on and we never got to it - so I'm particularly pleased to be able to eventually release this one on vinyl 45. Unreleased in the 70s, the 'A' side did get a CD release in 2015 and the 'B' side was out on a pretty hard-to-find Jetstream 45, which I recall had off-centre pressing problems on many copies.

Here they are now - totally remastered and sounding pretty darned good. I think most of us love Barbara Lynn's Atlantic original and Jo Jo's version sounds pretty top-notch too.

BERNARD DRAKE - I've Been Untrue / The Natural Thing.

For the last few years, one of the biggest Modern / Crossover sounds in the country.

It may well have been the same Texas trip around 15 years ago, we'd been to Houston and went on to the Austin show that I saw what is possibly the only copy I've ever seen of this 45. Ultra-rare and the few known copies are in the hands of Premier League DJ/collectors. - last one I saw through ebay was $4,000.  Over 50 years old and sounds perfect for today.

On sale with paypal payment now : £12.00 each + £3.00 p/p ( good for 1-3 records) paypal to - hitandrunsoul45@gmail.com

have had a look at this

that link "2 New Hit And Run Releases" was to a 2011 article on here - which contained a link to Garrys old site, which now appears to redirect to some sort of porn site

have removed the link so all should now be ok

third party links may change over time 

thanks for making us aware

No worries Mike, was worried that it may have contained something Nasty other than what was Visible (not a pleasant Sight) Better to let Someone Know rather than ignoring it,

Cheers, Rick
