Not had that on Era either...tangent...love his "Don't Let 'em" on 4J...a right belter...works well pitched down too (Popcorners take note!).

Cliff Chambers and Ray Shanklin take a bow.

Era didn't really have much, if any of its own financed production.  They were almost exclusively a label that distributed and pressed up leased independent productions. Often the Era issue had smaller press runs than the original, local LA label.  Boxes and boxes of small L.A. label Soul records survived to eventually have mass numbers of local issues find their way to The UK, while the Era issue remained ultra rare.

I wouldn't agree with you there Robb. Apart from Othello Robertson I've not come across an Era black music recording that wasn't in-house. They are usually Herb Newman songs so he controlled it very tightly.
