c alexander "pay them no mind"

any DJs played this over the years ? seems to be a cheapish 45 available on about 3 labels but I only came across it last week for the first time and thought it sounded very good. The more uptempo flip sounded OK as well but not quite as strong to me.

certainly good enough to buy a copy

New one on me also and just checked both sides out. I'd be pleased to hear either side out at anytime. Perhaps "Pay Them No Mind" in a laid back soul lounge which isn't necessarily dance orientated, now wouldn't that make a nice change.

NICE!

Great call Dylan, have been shouting from the rooftops for years about this, sadly though, in this big ticket demandind "not rare enough" climate we live in it will remain like so many other ignored gems just a topic for debate on these threads.

There's not much prestige in just playing good quality soul music these days....

Used to have this on Leo over 20 years ago, and dismissed it as a sound no one would like.

to follow up on the other thread about this, apparently c alexander is from detroit and this did originally come out on antone, which is the real first label.

and there I was thinking I had the first label

found copies on leo, guyjim and firebird but not this label you just mentioned.

I did see the old thread but just skimmed though it didn;t read it properly.
