March 8, 201114 yr Later this week I could add sound clips for the ones below as well, if still necessary then:
March 8, 201114 yr Despite the titles, the Big Wolfe is a Cincinnati record. I forgot who BW is (my copies of the Counterpart company files are long buried) but the co-writer is THE Kenny Smith. This was an early Counterpart production before the label was active.
March 9, 201114 yr Author Ugh, why didn't the clips I uploaded come out right? The files sound fine on my computer, but they seem to have uploaded with glitches in them....

March 9, 201114 yr Hey Matt - yes have that Little Evil, actually have 2 copies if you want to trade me something, great popcorn/r'n'b side and right in that early sound you're playing a lot of (rightfully) right now
March 10, 201114 yr Could one of you nice chaps post a full clip of "Bad,bad, understanding" - Lee Bates.? Always been curious as only heard part of it. Kev.
May 6, 201312 yr Old thread re-activation Been playing through some Instant label stuff...something I haven't done for a long, prompted by suddenly appreciating the qualities of Traci's, 'Little Evil'. The other disc that piqued my interest was Lee Bates debut disc for the label, 'Bad Bad Understanding'...sounds spot on nowadays with it's Funky drumming and under stated brass and piano work...not to mention Lee's enormously Soulful delivery! A quick Soul-Source search threw up this thread and got me digging a little deeper. Seems that Lee (now sadly no longer with us) also recorded this track for White Cliffs...has anyone got a copy...is it a totally different take? Edited December 8, 201311 yr by Flynny
May 6, 201312 yr Whilst this thread as been reactivated, along with the (old) White Cliffs thread, I thought it would be a appropriate to mention the Cosimo Code website - https://cosimocode.com/ I'm sure any additional information,label scans etc will be gratefully recieved.
May 6, 201312 yr Does anyone have these records? Can anyone tell me what each side sounds like or, better yet, point me to sound files?Instant 3274: Nettie Marsh, No Tears Have I / String Of Lies In case you don't know it yet, this Nettie Marsh is a not very interesting pop/country 45.
