Porgy & Monarchs 'that's my girl' is on Sylves (3 label variations; local, promo Chess distributed or stock) on Verve is 'love chain' ! 

Yes, I know that, but it was also released on verve no 10609.

Thanks

Hi Rob, well that I did not know and it's true (seen it on Google) !!! I love my Sylves promo and I never keep twice the same record. I'd be in a daze if I would lay my hand on that Verve promo (most likely did not made it to the stock stage...) as to wich one to keep. There must be a story behind that Verve record. Same production (maybe session) as for the 'love chain' one. But 'that's my girl' on Sylves must have been a good seller. The promos are rarer than the issues and a lot surfing up are worned out ! The promos Chess distributed have that "wall paper" shadowed promotional copy - not for sale shadowed patern that Chess used until early 1967. So the Sylves shouldn't be much behind mid 1967. While Porgy 'love chain' Verve (april 1968) is prior to 'that's my girl' on Verve that puts it around mid 1968 !!! I thought I had it all made in my head with my Porgy & the Monarchs record collection, but not. This is exiting ! Cheers

Stock copies do exist. I don't think this is particularly rare and is listed at £20 in Manships guide. Having said that I've been collecting Verve for years and only seen a vg- stock copy.

JM's guide goes both ways sometimes (too high & too low) and is not nerdy enough to consider the desirability (even by few hardcore maniacs) of small differences/details in great but overlooked records by established "hipster" DJ's or collectors. I don't have JM's guide, so £20 for the Verve !? How much does he rate the 3 Sylves differently if he does them individually £5, £10 & £15 ? 

There are 2 Sylves prices in the guide. £30 for the Chess distributed and £40 for the bars design. If you are lucky you can sometimes get them at those prices.

Verve (approx) count (collectorsfrenzy) 1 to 20 Sylves Chess stock, Sylves local 3 to 20, Sylves Chess promo 5 to 20. I'd priced them accordingly...
