i.e. No Atlantic, no Cotillion?

"Hot Billy Love"

Got plans to feature Atlantic, Cotillion, Stax Volt. Over coming weeks.

Some are so Large in Output, Regarding Atlantic Distribution, thought it best to split up into weeks.

Including Subsiduries & Distribution. ( i.e. HIB Records = ATCO)

Post a scan later in the week of this

2 more from Ben E,

One of my fave ATCO releases, I first played at Thorne... and had em all stroking their chinny chin chins!

Its since gone on to be a bit of a crossover monster!

Great deep flipside too, I've put on many a tape, over the years.

Sean

Another ATCO fave for me playbox at early Soul Essence weekends.

Like the above, its still going from strength to strength, I'm pleased to say.

Not the most soulful thing I've ever heard, but a crackin' little mover!

Sean

For like minded deep geeks.

Atco 6726 seems to have had to different flips, is that right??

Always Something To Remind Me / Home To Stay

Always Something To Remind Me / Oh, When I was A Boy

What a fantastic instrumental this is!

Sorry about the quality of the photo, couldn't get it to focus.

Hope this one is ok, fits the ATCO distribution.

Definitely OK, Not sure how it all worked though regarding Distribution.

Here's a couple from Mary Wells....

mary wells - can't you see your loosing me -

mary wells - keep me in suspense -

I think all the South Camp releases were distributed by ATCO. I'm assuming the same went for Quinvy, but it doesnt seem to say on the record labels

Some oddball stuff below that you'd be hard pressed to consider soul, but these are some really good 45s on ATCO in my opinion:

Brian Auger - Black Cat - ATCO 6611 (not issued on 45 in the UK)

Squires - Going All The Way - ATCO 6442

Sorry couldn't find this in refo.. Lenny O'Henry - Sweet young love - Atco.

Dee Dee Sharpe - A Woman Will Do Wrong - Atco 6576 (spelt on label with the "e" on the end of Sharp)

Canadian...did Atco release any other Dakar tunes in Canada?

hard to know where to start with this label + distributions

quickly a few pics i had sitting around on photobucket

Bobby Andriani - I've Got To Find A Way -

Fabulous mid-tempo...recommended.

Three more interesting ones:

Mary Wells - brilliant double sider....this is the West Coat pressing...possible demo?

Kenny Gamble - fab mid-tempo...totally overlooked!

Loretta Williams - French press Atco!

I think all the South Camp releases were distributed by ATCO. I'm assuming the same went for Quinvy, but it doesnt seem to say on the record labels

Can't recall seeing the distribution deal mentioned on Quinvy labels, but here are a couple of South Camp variants:
