Too right Dave - a hard one to find and it took me ages to get mine

The original local Detroit release I think

I also have a juke box strip for this one

Bugger you Dave, the only DJ I don't have, issue wise of course, if you ever get a spare give me a rather large shout mate lol

The first Deon Jackson single I bought...

How can you go wrong with names like Wylie, Hester, Terry, McLaughlin and Deon Jackson on a label (not forgettin' what tune's on the other side )?

never made a bad tune

Canadian Carla, the only Carla, Moira etc etc I have found. Any info on what else came out up here?

Here's a couple of scans I have to hand:

Love his stuff!

LP - His Greatest Recordings

With Four Newly Discovered Performances

(Actually Three!)

Deon Jackson has to be one of my favourite artistes . I've been after a copy of That's What You Do To Me for a while, but I don't want it on that horrible red with black lines/writing label, so I've misssed out on quite a few copies .

Any chance of Mr Croasdell or someone legitimately releasing Someday The Sun Will Shine b/w I Remember The Feeling?

Anyway here's my meagre collection for perusal .

Absolutely awesome artist.....more's the pity he couldn't be tempted to share his artistry in person on these shores!

We were an inch away from sealing the deal. For some reason once the dust had settled on the meeting Deon decided it wasn't for him. It was one of the worst moments I've had on the soul scene when he backed out, I was convinced he was gonna blow everyone away. He is still a musician and is a tutor/mentor at a school just outside Chicago. He's a lovely bloke and I'm sure he'd have had people eating out of his hands in UK. Ah well, I'm sure he had his reasons.

Regards,

Dave

I would be over the moon if somebody could get him to come over hear, here's hoping, cheers Jim.

"Still Remember The Feeling" is on the above LP.

Surprised no one has mentioned this UK only Alternate mix.

Thanks for the Contempo scan Paul It saved me from digging mine out, as I was just going to look for it!

Anyway, here's a few more variations (and maybe a better picture of one) etc.

Yes, if you are referring to the 'Hello Stranger 66', and fairly, yes

No, not the same as Lionel...this was a hit song spouting lots of cover versions.

This version does not feature Deon singing...it is a lush string-laden take...no idea why they put his name to it, but thankfully they did thus causing an odd rarity for us to track down years later!

I had an inkling it might have some rarity value as I could never find any info about it.

Many thanks for the reply.

$5 well spent me thinks

Just sorting a couple of boxes of $5 stuff for a local show this afternoon and found this mis-filed on Canadian Atco. Mint unplayed:
