Rare Lp Tracks

Posted

Hi all

I thought that I'd open this up to share LP only tracks that you may be aware of.

Obviously because of the nature of LP's they don't tend to get as many spins.

Best Mick

Sorry for the shameless plug but the RHETTA HUGHES album Re-Light My Fire contained two essential club soul tracks, 'Cry Myself To Sleep' and the Motown-flavoured 'Giving Up My Heartaches', produced by Jo Armstead and Mike Terry and recorded in 1969 at Terra Shirma in Detroit.

On March 28th they were released as a 7" single on Shotgun SHOT 107.

It's been our fastest seller so far. The first batch sold out within ten days but a second batch will be available from Wednesday...

I have not seen BOBBY THURSTON JUST ASK ME MAINLINE mentioned. Sorry if I have missed it.

Originally played covered as Major Harris ( I think). I think that IS rare.

Thanks

Steve Foran

Not seen it on 45. Just the Hi-Hut reissue.

Should add it is from the "Sweetest Slice of the pie" LP. I think that is it or maybe Sweetest piece of the pie. Got the damm thing but am in the office just now.

Ben Moore / I've got a winner in you / 'Purified' LP .

Great 70's .

guest, I have the -excellent- "Purified" LP and "I've got a winner in you" is not on it (???)

And it's from '82.

Most definately on th UK DJM issue from 1979 Philippe - last track side one .

What label is the 1982 'Purified' that you have on ?

It's on US Priority, the same as on the pictures above.

Does the DJM pressing have the same track-listing or is it totally dfferent ?

The 'pictures above' ain't showing Philippe otherwise I'd be able to tell you .

??? You mean you can't see any picture ?

I hope that'll work with this link : https://www.discogs.c...release=1512442

Philippe, Ben Moore had two LPs called Purified and the tracks on them are nothing alike.

The other Purified with I Got A Winner In You was on DJM in the UK and was also released in Brazil on the Young label and was also released under the title Slow Dancin on Roadshow in the States. All very confusing :o)

The one on Priority is a very Gospel album isn't it

Edited by richard

Thanks Richard, that's what I thought.

But I didn't know that the English "Purified " was the "US "Slow dancin". I had this LP in the past but I didn't keep it.

Yes, the US "Purified" is gospel but only the lyrics. The music is 80's quality Soul.

You can get an idea on this link : https://www.cdandlp.com/item/1/0-220206-0-1-0/113737144/ben-moore-purified.html

Richard "Dimples" Fields LP "Finger looking good", track "Then along came Belinda", fabulous!

GOOD CHOICE! :thumbsup:

Has anyone mentioned the following?

Four Tops - To care (original version, not remixed)

The Spinners - What more can a boy ask for

Both album only tracks until remixed or booted.

Brief Encounter- We came to play for you (couldn't find a YT clip so I'll put mine up there when I get ten mins). LP of the same name goes for around 400 sheets

Michael Cloud - Check your direction (although did get a 45 release)

Best of Both Worlds - Lost in a shuffle of love

City Limits - Words without love (not exactly expensive at around a score but you hardly ever see it)

Round Trip - You and Me (again 30-50 quid but not exactly everywhere)

Dysons Faces - Welcome to all this love again

  • 1 year later...

after a long lapse of time it's about time to post some more lp only tracks - imo!

Yes, it was unreleased as far as I am aware, until it saw the light of day on; "LOST AND FOUND — LOST WITHOUT YOU (1963-1970)" (2005 MOTOWN CD)

Check out Spanky Wilson - Easy Lover on the Specialty Of The House LP on 20th Century, it's up there with Gloria Scott, an Al Kent production

Great track..

Great track.

Not just great. F*ckin' BRILLIANT! Perfect uptempo Soul music!

Spanky Wilson "Easy Lover"

Ian D :D

I know you're knocking on a bit Ian but uptempo! A floater surely!

Some nice ballads on the lp too, to calm you down a bit if that's a bit fast :ohmy:

Lucky sod! :thumbsup::hatsoff2:

Silly prices on there, I paid more for the postage from NZ than for the record itself.

Is that Dusty LP really NZ/OZ only? I wouldn't have guessed that.

I had it filed for ages just for that first track pretty much but decided life is too short to worry about one track LPs which are otherwise weak so I just threw it in the bin. John Paul Jones from Led Zep did the arrangements if I remember right?

Did a name check on this thread and it returned negative so I'm gonna give a big shout out for The California Playboys "Trying to become a Millionaire" on Loadstone.

What a cracking album only 6 tracks but if my memory served me right Butch or Sam used to fill the floor with the title track. I still love it to this day 5.48 minutes of quality soul dance heaven. Spun it a few times over the years while out but never had the same effect.

Check out Double Love and "she's a real sweet woman " too name a couple more tracks. A quality soul album with rarity thrown in. It's never turned up in quantity or even handfuls,but the title track is a killer.
