================================================================================

The Label's Best production.....imho!

Without a shadow of a doubt.

And let us not forget that at least two numbers were pressed twice offering up different takes/mixes!

And if you want to see what they look like....

Epsilons - Mad at the world / I'm so devoted

Probably Shrine's best seller, but thats not a bad thing is it!? Quality double sided midtempo harmonies....

i had the bill dennis-never let you get away,stone mint,and interestingly the last couple of seconds it has the smallest of jumps,that unless you played it over and over again (as i did) you would never notice it,then stone me i played the cd compilation,and the song does the same thing on there aswell,im guessing it is a recordeing fault from the actual recording session?

Always wondered if Hem had owt to do with Shrine this written by Mr Singleton and reply to mad at the world shrine 106

epsilons - mad at the world - soul-tbc

Epsilons - Its alright

Flip to Its alright, written and produced by Eddie Singleton

According to the liner notes of Andy Rix Eddie Singleton had no knowledge of the Hem release at the time. It is assumed (again according to the notes) that the masters were left at Edgewood after Shrine's demise and someone took them to the local Hem label that had Atlantic distribution??

And the Jet Set connection. Who can talk about that ?

Not on Refo, but what a beauty!

Phil Treefella should be able to do you one Sharron. Unless thats another he kept for 5 minutes and then sold lol

And the Jet Set connection. Who can talk about that ?

Eddie took up a contract from Jet Set to do some production / writing work as a means to fund the ongoing work at Shrine. This funded production runs of 2000+ presses of the remaining output.

Still got it mate. Some records are worth more than money

And the Jet Set connection. Who can talk about that ?

I swapped emails back in 2003 with Dimitri Villard, one of the co-owners of Jet Set. This is taken from one of his replies:

"I was the person who raised the money for Eddie to start Shrine, and in return he helped us with some of our recording sessions, arrangements, etc. We were very good friends. We even recorded a few of his artists such as Jimmy Armstrong and Barbara Long for our label. We started out on our own, then got picked up by Bell Records (Amy-Mala-Bell) for distribution. Jet Set was owned by me, Caspar Davis and Blair Butterworth. Eventually the label folded."

He also told me that as far as he was aware the masters had been lost...unless someone can tell us differently?! Here is one from their stable...Bill St.John...not overly Northern, more of a Popcorn tune...catchy lyric I can assure you!

Can't recall ever seeing one for sale ever! What price?? If I recall correctly was it the Bill Dennis 45 that was thought to be un-issued and only available from an original acetate or am I thinking of another Bill Dennis acetate?

I absolutely love the slow sides on Shrine, Poor loser - The Cautions, Sidney Hall - I'm a lover, Ray Pollard - No more like me & The D.C.Blossoms - I know about her, wow, superb !!

Has anyone managed to put together a full run of the label yet ?
