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

This came out on 45 or is the LP version different, if so by how much & does it really count as an LP release only?

John Manship sold it on auction a couple of years ago. I think Mick Holdsworth from Wolvo paid about nine hundred for it. A true rarest of the rare as far as 33's go. Tony Ellis from London has a copy, used to play it at Yate.

Alongside the unisssued Lou Johnson on UK london test press only, Adey C owns it I think.

Some LP only tracks from me:

FREDA PAYNE: On Easy Street (How Do You Say I Don't Love You Anymore)

BOBBY BLAND: Sweet Lips Of Joy (A Touch Of The Blues)

THE TOYS: Deserted (Lovers Concerto)

TOMMY NAVARRO: I'm Comin' On Back (Twist Around The Town)

TEMPESTS: Just about every track on Would You Believe

TYRONE THOMAS: Baby Can't You See (alternate take) (Free Angela)

DEON JACKSON: I'm Telling You (Love Makes The World Go Round)

Plus, let's not forget those excellent Motown compilations on Music For Pleasure / Sounds Superb, each one of which contains at least one unissued track or cover version!

This was such a fantastic thread when done last year.

Cant remember how many replies (there were sh*t loads), so well worth another go.

LP only tracks get way over looked IMO, and there are some CORKERS out there.

What i found really interesting last time was the amount of tracks people thought to be LP only but had a foreign 45 release which people didnt know about. All part of the sharing and learning yes.gif

Loads of good ones mentioned so far like Righteous Brother, Tempests, Clydene Jackson, Rhetta Hughes etc.

Two from me:

Luther Ingram - Do you think there's a chance

James Brown - Why did you take your love away from me (Massive nighter sound)

This subject comes up fairly regularly on Soul Source and each time new tracks get mentioned, so all power to whoever started the thread as there has been some brill stuff mentioned thumbsup.gif

On a slightly different slant i've recently been playing four LP-Only Northern classics where each take is significantly different to the 45's we're used to-

Alice Clark - You hit me (late 60's/early 70's version) - GWP LP

Frank Dell - He broke your game wide open (late 60's/early 70's version) - Guinness LP

Dee Dee Sharp - What kind of lady (with extra verse and backing vocals) - Gamble LP

Sam Dees - Lonely for you baby (with count-in and femme backing vocals) - Jap LP

Cheers

Steve

I've been championing this James Brown tune for a while now and mentioned it on here a few times with not that many people knowing it. It's on the 'I Can't Stand Myself When You Touch Me' (King) album.

Pure 1960's Northern Stormer all the way....didn't realise it was getting plays!!!! thumbup.gif

ALSO SANDRA WRIGHT - MIDNIGHT AFFAIR- (ALT TAKE) DEMON LP UK. although did get a legit 7" German release donkeys years later.but that doesnt count for me the only way to play it out is off the original (un-released ! LP)...love the confusion and esoteric world of rare soul vinyl collecting.

My personal choice for one of the greatest ever LP only soul dancers:

Jerry Butler "Stop Stepping On My Dreams".

Did actually appear on a US promotional only Mercury 6 track 7" promo EP but sadly in much abbreviated form !!!

I have both these, the promo ep is a great collectors piece, has yours the pic sleeve etc ?

Three of my faves:

Gladys Knight & Pips - Ain't you glad you chose love

Betty Wright - That's when I'll stop loving you (better than Belita Woods IMHO)

Jackie Wilson - You can count on me

Hope to hear your Lp track only set at Essence again in April, maybe we can get the better of Bully this time:boxing: Then again:no:

Hiya Binsy

If Bob & Gav want me to do the 'LP only' set again at Yarmouth in April it will be the 4th year on the run! And as usual, I'll make sure that there will be no tracks played from previous years either! Pressure will be on again as at midnight folks have to dance to 'em too!

Although I'll have to watch out for the Soul detective's as I got caught out last year with a couple tracks that got released on Outer Mongolian 45's that I wasn't aware of :blush:

And to round it off, it will be me and you and Bully in the car park at 6.30 a.m. :boxing:

Cheers
