Could anyone please shed any light on a couple of 45's I have and can't find in Manships guide. I think the one by the 5 Royales must be extremely rare. I know I have never seen or heard ot before.

The 5 Royales, Think c/w I'd better make a move. This is on a King complimentary deejay special. The label is cream in colour and there is a list of the group members plus a little story of the group and it's music. The ' THINK ' side is pure R'NB, a bit like Little Willie John 'Im shakin'. The other side is more doo wop. I will be putting this in my sales but whats it worth ?

Jimmy Soul, Twistin' Matilda c/w I can't hold out any longer. It's on the SPQR label.

Hank Ballard and the Midnighters, the switch-a-roo c/w the float. The Float is pure R'NB. On the blue King label.

Nothing about any of these in Manships guide. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi Tony , have an issue of the 5 royales on king . not an expensive one im afraid 15-20 tops although dont know about the demo.

Jimmy Soul is worth about a fiver if you can find someone who wants it - they are always a few on ebay.

Same with the Hank Ballard - I think the reason they're not in Manship's guide is that they're not worth anything!

jimmy soul is not expensive

also those king bio labels are on a lot of promotional king releases of that era

Sometimes you have to look outside of Manship's

' Think' was a US pop hit and got in the top 10 in the R&B charts.
