Yes it was booted on Soul Galore, but the S.I.R. original was quite cheap at one time.

One of the records shop in Haslinden had it in stock on S.I.R.

It was run by a lad called Andy Riding, who is no longer with us.

Andy used to DJ with me at the Legion and the Band Club.

He went on to do the Jenny and Rose Room with Ginger.

I got my boot back in 1976 - Soul Galore - what a great record - one of the best instrumentals ever.

s.i.r... sorry for my ignorance but what does that stand for?.. he cant remember the label but seems to think it was 'soul intent' ( i think he said that?!) black label... so why is it not docummented in manships or any other guide do you know? x

Hi there,

This the story of Doni Burdick's record "Bari Track", this my own recollection and is not from any book or website so there could be inaccuricies.The tune title I believe came from as far I can remember stood for the famous Baritone sax of Mike Terry.

Again as far as I remember the record was bootlegged twice, once one Soul Galore which is the one everyone is familiar with, the second bootleg was an exact copy of the Sound Impression Record, "SIR", the way of identifying an original is to look at the run out groove dead wax on the "B" side "I have faith in you" and on an original you will find an "ARCHER" stamp which isn't there on the bootleg. I believe the cheap copies you talk about are these bootlegs. These second bootlegs will be quite obscure now as alot of them were passed off as originals. As far as I know genuine originals have never been that cheap.

Again I must repeat these are my personal recollections, we really need someone like John Manship to confirm all this.

Great tune and probably up there with "Exus Trek" and "Sidras theme" as my favourite instrumental, I paid £60 for mine back in 1981.

hope this helps,

Regards,

Alan

thanks alan that makes sense as ive asked him again and he is sure his was on 'sound impression' (not soul intent as i quoted earlier... dont know where i got that from! lol smile.gif yet he always pressumed it was a boot because of what he paid.... he was just curious why it wasnt mentioned in any guides?....i knew about the 'baritone sax' bit x... so the boot on s.i.r would have looked like the one pictured above?... am i sounding really dumb?!... dont answer that! :D x

Because its on a different label to the original (and one that is well known as a bootleg label.)

I have to confess I have never heard or seen a S.I.R. bootleg, but I can say that there many originals for sale in the midlands in the later 70's. I think Mick Flello and Steve Russell of the West Midlands Soul Club (original promoters of the Nottm palais) had some. Remember they also had Connie Clark, Tony & Tyrone demos and a whole bunch of other stuff in quantity. I paid £5 for my first and an unbelievable £2.50 for the second from Rob Smith in about 1980, he kindly threw in a Mel Britt dj to make it a round £5! We do forget how cheap things got in the early 80's when prices crashed.

best,

RB

:boxing:Hi all I can clearly remember Mick Smith having the allturnite version of the "I have faith in you" way back in the 7ts on a studio accitate, and so much so I think I would at the time had gladley give him £15 for a EMI Disk of it, in the *ts he added it to his play list and of coure it finally came out on vinal as the B side of Babara Mc Naire, and though not rare as such but as a UK collector I treasure my white lable copy? also Mick use to have the INST of "Clara Wards - Right Direction" with just the backing vocals, who knows what the man has got yet to be played?:ph34r: DAVE KIL

i bought a sound impression copy with archer stamp for £80 in early 90`s so it must have been much cheaper in the 70s and 80`s. only thought it became big money about 5 years ago when JM auctioned it and it quadrupled

It's in his bootleg guide anyway.

That info on the Sound Impression bootleg was very interesting but I'm afraid I can't concur with it, I've never even heard mention of it before that post and any copy of it I've had, I've never had any doubt that it was authentic.

I bought my copy in the 70'sfor 34.00 and sold it in 1984 for £8.00 ity must have gone up in the late 80.s.

pete my fella says there is no mention of it being booted on the s.i.r label but he thinks it must have been for the price he paid and the availability at the time... so was curious why it wasnt mentioned as being booted on the s.i.r label anywhere not the other label i know thats mentioned.... it made sense to us what alan said about it but be interesting to know if anyone else can clarify, you guys have the knowledge on most things soulful x

I have found what I believe to be confirmation of the information I was offering about SIR bootleg copies of Bari Track, I mentioned at the time that John Manship would be able to help confirm it one way or the other, I know John posts on here but he probably hasn't read this thread, anyway on John's latest record sales list (list 1039) on the next to last page he has a selection of current auction titles and on there is indeed a copy of Bari Track and the description he mentions that this copy he has for sale has the raised ARCHER stamp in the deadwax which would suggest to me that must be copies that hasn't got the raised ARCHER stamp on it.

Alan

Not necessarily - he's probably just saying that to add more to the description.

Hi Pete, I know what you're saying and I agree with you that it isn't 100% proof but I found it strange that he mentions it, we really need John to make a comment on it all.
