Northern Soul Uk Posted June 25, 2012 Share Posted June 25, 2012 I have read that 'The Larks - Grooving at the gogo' was recorded for the 'Harthon' record label, but released on the 'Tower' label. Was there any actually released on 'Harthon'? Reason I ask is I have just bought a cheapie on 'Harthon', will it be a bootleg? Not bothered if it is like, but just wondered. Thanks.

The Yank Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 It looks like a boot- Harthon release #'s were in the 100's. This might be a 70's release like the Body Motions "Puttin' You On" / "False Alarm" which has release # of 103074 . Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Harry Crosby Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 I would swear that's a boot- Harthon release #'s were in the 100's. This might be a 70's release like the Body Motions "Puttin' You On" / "False Alarm" which has release # of 103074 . Legit 70`s release, not a boot Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Paul Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Hello, As far as I know it was a legitimate 1974 reissue, via Weldon McDougal. The instrumental flip side was previously unissued until then. Paul Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Sebastian Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 This might be a 70's release like the Body Motions "Puttin' You On" / "False Alarm" which has release # of 103074 . Yes, both the Larks and Body Motions 45s are from 1974. The cat#'s are the dates of when the 45 was pressed or mastered and should be read like this: HARTHON 102474 - Larks - Groovin At The Gogo HARTHON 103074 - Body Motions - Puttin' You On 102474 = 10/24/74 = 24th of October 1974 103074 = 10/30/74 = 30th of October 1974 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Northern Soul Uk Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 Excellent news! Well I paid £4 for it, so at least it's not a boot and pleased it's a legit release. Thank you Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Paul That's right. All those with the plain label design and red-orange or orange colouring were legit '70s re-issues by Weldon. Some of them had never been issued before. The originals of the ones that had been issued, have the Harthon logo on the label. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Thank you Try and get the other one on Tower - Another Chance b/w Rain. The former a dreamy mid tempo delight the B side wonderful ballad all done by that Philly genius Tommy Bell, you should be able pick one up for a tenner in today's market. They did a couple on Tower too, well worth having one "It's unbelievable" is a re-recording of their earlier release on Sheryl. Good luck Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Northern Soul Uk Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Got it through today and it looks like it's never been played, really nice and well chuffed for £4. I will look into the other releases on 'Tower' too, thank you all for the advice. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
