1) Yes, one without writing on

2) Yes, a red and white one. Green and white's just do not have the same effect on me.

3) I can't think of anything more beautiful than this demo

Wasn't referring to the one being sold Pete - just the fact that I have an eye for the lovely Stateside demo both green and red..

Whilst I can appreciate the affection for the Stateside demo's I have a preference for the look of the pink and silver MGM one's

They are beautiful, as are the pink and silver Verve demos.  Still prefer red and white's of everything though.  Cal Tjader on UK Verve r & w demo, that's a beauty.

Agreed!!

 

Would it be worth a try for SS members to post scans of all the Northern/Soul Stateside demo's on this thread or a gallery type thread?

And not forgetting HMV's Impressions 45s. Are they all available in demo form though? Can't find any info regarding the matter.

Yes, all of them, going back to Gypsy Woman which was on a blue HMV issue.  That's a really rare R&W.  Got one in the very early days of ebay for about £8.

Cheers Pete, I usually just look at the first page - recent additions.

Can I filter it so there is just the stateside showing?

 

Yes you can search by keyword so just type in stateside at the top right (I think)

As a British label collector, I like red and white Demos too, who wouldn't. What I wouldn't like though is a whole collection of nothing but red and white Demos. That would be so boring.

Really glad I got rid of my Darrell Banks demos for a London issue recently :D

yeah i,m really glad i,ve still got my demo cos i think the issues have turned up !

I've been ' putting out ' a series of flyers for my Soul Night for 13 years now, all of them UK demos. Copied both sides of course. 

 

I have a determined bunch of friends / soulies who collect these now !

 

The most recent one is the one that has probably been most in-demand [ other than Darrell B. on yellow London [ O.T.D.T.Y.H. ], which was the first  'issue' in the series in 2002 ]. This most recent one is the Invitations, [ W.W.W.M.B. ] on a r/w Stateside.

 

So I agree, as it seems do my ' collectors ' ; there is nothing more beautiful than a r/w Stateside, in an original proper and pristine royal blue bag.

 

I.M. (not so humble ) O.,.......of course.

Yes Pete, Thanks.

(1 Mercury seemed to have sneaked in!!)

 

The word Stateside must have been mentioned in the description of the Mercury record mate, in fact it was, saying it was a cover of Mary Wells on Stateside

It'd be like Record Porn to me  :lol:

Thought I would join in

Creation green stateside :)
