Another one that was also included in the Kent CD Southern Soul Showcase: Cryin' In The Streets was:

151 - Gable Reed - I'm Your Man/Who's Been Warming My Oven

Theres further Miranet releases such as:

200 - Big John Hamilton - Lift Me Up/Just Seeing You Again

which are on Minaret with a different design and what looks to be a few years later than the other releases? Theres also no mention anything about Shelby Singleton or SSI which the other label variants have.

Dave,

Do you want these also?

Maybe Big John Hamilton is the link between the SSI related releases and the later design?

Hi John,

Now I've actually looked in R & B Indies, I need these numbers for the later series

201, 202, 203, and then if there are any others in the 4882, 4883 series, the 6156, and the 7603, 7611 series.

June 23, 201114 yr

How many are decent Northern soul tracks apart from the obvious?

Cheers John

I know this tread is for the Minaret discog but thought this may be of interest. Finlay Duncan's Playground Studios when derelict. Look out for those Minaret's laying about.
