Amsterdam Russ Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Following on from the Bob & Earl and adding to the mysteries on Loma, there is one 45 on the label for which I'm certain no demo exists, and that's Lucky Carmichael - Hey girl / Blues with a feeling (Loma 2006).

Amsterdam Russ Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Out of interest, how is the distinction being made here between 45s that 'don't exist' and recordings that were never released? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
45cellar Posted March 4, 2011 Author Share Posted March 4, 2011 Out of interest, how is the distinction being made here between 45s that 'don't exist' and recordings that were never released? Mainly those records that were rumoured to exist or should be there, but for various reasons never made it to Vinyl. Could be that Stock Copies exist as is the case with Eddie Foster - "I NEVER KNEW", but DEMOs were never made. or Chubby Checker - You Just Don't Know - Parkway only got as far as a DEMO (West Coast) & Test Press (East Coast) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Andy Rix Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 Tamiko Jones - Golden World yellow issue does exist .. my first sight was a Soul Bowl list and I have held a copy Anderson Bros - GSF stock copy ... yes definately ... Pete Halas, from Spalding, had one in the 70's and I've seen 2 since .. didn't Johnny M auction one ?? Honey Bees & Just Bros on Wand - never pressed according to Don Mancha. He told me deal was done but delivering the tapes was delayed cos of the race riots and when he got them there they eventually changed their minds ... I've never done the research to determine in the time lines all match up Andy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Kev Moore Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) This is the green issue. I bought it of Mr Waddington who says he used to have the wand issue many years ago.

Kev Moore Posted March 5, 2011 Share Posted March 5, 2011 (edited) Slightly off topic but are these rare issues?

Ian Dewhirst Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Pete Wid told me over a beer last year that he made that story up! This is another one of those situations where you can visualise the label perfectly (blue Pama by the way). This is another one which I'm convinced I've actually seen, like "Humphrey Stomp" on Wand. Except, in the case of the Volumes, I'm recalling this from the 70's. I'm usually pretty good at recalling things but maybe this one is going too far....... Entirely feasible though. Pete chose a good one. Ian D Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Johnny Mack Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 (edited) All of the Johnny Dunn 45 on Veep I have seen have been demos - both full face and the small Veep symbol design.The originals are styrene and have a Bellsound stamp to differentiate them from the pressing if memory serves me right. Mind you, I havent seen an issue of Johnny Dunn. While we are on Veep, come to think of it, I haven't seen an issue of either the Star-Treks or a Timothy Wilson "Hey Girl do you love me". Anyone - do they exist ? The Don Varner "Tear Stained Face" remains the greatest mystery on the label - surely this would have surfaced by now if it did exist. I've heard the rumours of the box which went to Holland in the early 70's, for the deep side, but cant believe that nothing has surfaced. You've got to put it down as believe it only when you see it ! Take care John george blackwell - demo? Joe Hicks demo? johnny dunn demo?

I'm usually pretty good at recalling things but maybe this one is going too far....... Entirely feasible though. Pete chose a good one. Ian D The reason this story still has some credibility is because of The Volumes 45's appearance in "The New Singles", a fold out brochure that came out every week listing all of that weeks new releases, I used to have hundreds of these when working for Music Master and it definitely appears in that publication, but the information would have been provided weeks before publication and of course record companies change their minds. If it exists, there's a possibility it might have appeared on a "pre", a white label advance press, however I don't think Pama produced these for their soul releases.
