Ady Croasdell Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Was it booted, my copy is a demo but looks a bit odd and is very bassy on the Heartaches side. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 It was Ady, very limited but it's out there, vinyl, poor looking copy of the label (demo) and not great sound quality. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 I think I've got a boot then so could use the loan of a nice issue please anybody. Thanks Pete Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) I've got one, but it'll be 3 months before I'm back in USA, where it is shelved. I take it you need it for The Brent/Time CD, and need it soon? I'm sure there are several others on this forum that have a nice-looking original copy. I'll get credit on the CD, anyway for another 45 scan I sent a few months ago (Reggie White?). Edited June 9, 2014 by RobbK Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 The Boot had thin, weak text print, as photocopied labels generally produce. Isn't that right? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Oddly enough, I don't think I ever saw one of these until the late 90's. It got very few plays back in the late 70's so was very surprised that it had been booted.

Robbk Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 Ronnie, but you're close. Yep I'll need it a bit sharper Robb; thanks any road up. Ha! Ha! I always confuse Ronnie with US pro football all star, Reggie White of The Green Bay Packers. This is what happens when one gets old and doesn't get enough of the beta fish fats. Would you believe that at one time I could recall (when tested) all the labels and catalogue numbers of all records in my large label runs! I couldn't remember all of them offhand. I had to picture in my mind flipping through the records and then "looking" at them and "reading" off the labels in my mind, by having remembered what the surrounding records were. A LOT of you big 45 collectors on this forum will identify with this statement, as you, too have a photographic memory. MOST of the people I've met with photographic memories were collectors, and most of those collected records (and most of those 45s). I'd bet that 45 collectors have more than 1000 times the incidence of photographic memories among their population as exists in the normal population. And I'd bet The NS ("Soulie") population has 100,000 times that of that of the general population, as it would be virtually impossible to keep track of all the titles from artists you are looking for and all the labels, producers, music publishers, etc. while fumbling through warehouses full of 45s with only a few hours there to do so, without such a skill. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted June 9, 2014 Author Share Posted June 9, 2014 Good point, I'd better get on the fish oils too. And you either didn't rise to my bizarre northern colloquialisms or wisely treated them with disdain. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Robbk Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 was just gonna offer mine! Shouldn't you STILL be offering yours, unless "another road up" means he's willing to wait 3.5 months until I return to USA. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Robbk Posted June 9, 2014 Share Posted June 9, 2014 (edited) What? No comments on my photographic memory blurb??? I thought I'd get a bunch of great stories from the old days from you guys. Maybe by tomorrow morning. I once had a few collectors over to my house. One of them knew me fairly well. The other was brought by the latter, The bloke that knew me showed ny run of Atlantic 45s from 874 through about 2700, with not all that many missing. They were stacked standing vertically (as they should be) on shelves, with the thin edge facing outward,, in sleeves, There were cardboard catalogue number markers for every 25 (e.g. at 875, 900. 925, 950, etc. He told the guy he could pick out any number, at random, and not let me see it. Then he would tell me the number, and I would proceed to tell him the artist's name and the title of the "A" side song. He bet him $10 that I could do that. The guy took the bet. He didn't believe I (or anyone) could do that. He proceeded to pick from the middle of the shelves (it ran across 3 different large book shelves). He picked 1161 "Yodee Yakee" by The Drifters (one of my favourite early non-McPhatter leads). I got it right away, and for good measure got the 2 other random picks he made. He was in shock. My friend later gave me half the take ($5), I felt like Minnesota fats skinning a sucker!

Andy Rix Posted June 15, 2014 Share Posted June 15, 2014 Was it booted, my copy is a demo but looks a bit odd and is very bassy on the Heartaches side. Got one but seems you're sorted Is it safe to assume this is the same group that went on to become Faith, Hope & Charity who recorded for Maxwell, Sussex and RCA etc https://www.soulcellar.co.uk/faith/Disc.html 'Here Comes The Heartaches' was written by Zulema Rucker and there was a Zulema Cusseaux, who wrote a lot of songs, in FoD .... enough coincidences to make it possible I suppose andy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted June 18, 2014 Author Share Posted June 18, 2014 Excellent Andy, that's half the sleevenotes done. I actually still need an Ex copy if you could oblige. The one I got was Z-, though the Laura Johnson was fabulous +! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Andy Rix Posted June 18, 2014 Share Posted June 18, 2014 (edited) I'll send it down .. pleased to see it getting a CD release .. it's a great record There was an article in B&S when FoD were just breaking through and they refer to the Lovells .. it always stuck in my mind I should have the article somewhere but not sure where to start looking Andy Edited June 18, 2014 by Andy Rix Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
