Hey,

am sure you can help me. Searching for a tune i heard in a mix but can´t remember the Artist or the Title. Only know that it came out on BOOTs records, and that it was bootlegged. There was a thread about this some longer time ago.

If your talking about the "Boot" bootleg label.......do think there was Alfie Davidson,Drapers,Eddie Whitehead and Sammy Davis

Never heard of that record in my life - was it really booted back in 75/76 along with George Blackwell, Salvadors, Mel Britt etc?

Played in about 76, I did not know it had been booted till just now!

Kinda explains why it never took off.:hatsoff2:

Don"t think it was booted with those classics Pete but I believe the Dave Newman "Make Up Your Mind"boot also has PB in the run out and have been told these and some other tunes were booted at the same time before they had the chance to really become big sounds

Soussan did it Pete about the same time I believe. Eddie Daniels is in refosoul, great record but I do wonder why it was booted, wouldn't have though it a typical 1975ish northern soul record?

Dave Newman was a massive record when it got booted (or at least it was at the Mecca)

Dave Newman was a New York bootleg same pressing plant and counterfeiter as Anderson Bros, Epitome Of Sound etc, nothing to do the the P.B. batch.

Sorry to post inncorrect info.... my memory is crap ........I wasn't around at the time of these "PB"boots but had been told of some done on tunes that hadn;t had chance to go big yet.

Maybe you know the other ones John ?

Once again sorry to all for posting wrong info

Cheers Paul

This record must have gone way under most peoples radar, its not in JM's price guide 4th edition (although its in the 5th) or in his early bootleg guide and theres no mention in Tim Browns latest guide.

Not many saying they can remember it from the 70s either, strange one - great record though!

Eddie Daniels was a Dave Raistrick discovery bitd.Booted? If it was we're back to the "making a few dollars locally" syndrome as mentioned on a recent thread.(lee rogers - sock some love power).

Nope, it wasn't Dave, it was Soussan. This was originally on Soussan's list at the time and only a couple of copies made it over here as far as I know. I don't think those were boots either. It's an incredibly obscure record and I've certainly never seen any more than one original in my entire life. It could because it was around at that particular juncture that everyone assumes it was booted. If it had been booted there'd be loads of 'em over the years wouldn't there?

Ian,

Eddie Daniels - was bootlegged in the same P.B. batch along with the Salvadors, Johnny Vanelli, George Blackwell, Mel Britt etc. etc. This load was originally offered to Bob Cateneo by Simon Sousann, Bob spotted they were bootlegs immediately, as he was a master-counterfeiter himself.

we sold an original copy to "Butch" about 2 years ago - ironically I also authenticated a "Counterfeit" copy, for a name DJ last month. The bootlegs are RARE, the originals are stupidly rare. They are very easy to tell apart.

As for it being a Dave Raistrick discovery I think this was bootlegged before Dave went to the USA, it's an L.A. record and I beleive Sousann bootlegged it before it got played in the UK. He did this on several occasions previously and wasn't an unusual thing to do. He just considered anything good in the 70s would go big - with this title he got it wrong. Dave may have had a copy, because he did find some wonderful Los Angeles rarities over the years.

..yep..i heard this prob at wigan or mecca way before dave went to the US..however dave did find a copy (which i think he still has) in an obscure mom and pop store in Calif.I looked it over some years ago, but couldn't afford it at the time ..apparently the bootlegs (orangey?) are diff to originals..another great sound that never really made it due to being booted too early...

Mmmm. Interesting. I saw the George Blackwell and Johnny Vanelli boots and they were incredibly good at the time I seem to remember. I didn't realise that the Eddie Daniels were boots as well. I wonder how many of each he did 'cos that Eddie Daniels must be shit rare on a boot 'cos I never see that anywhere?

Ian D :thumbsup:
