    I spoke to the owner of itzy records daughter a few years back, she told me her father loved the record and put it out on his label around 5-6 months after swan. Hope this helps pete

Here's the old thread Pete

 

 

Great, thanks mate, so it's a licensed Pittsburgh release / reissue, not to be confused with the bootlegs on the same label.

I had a styrene Swan issue of the song once,,I am a bit of a swan demo collector tho.

 

What could I get for a battered demo of Eddie Carlton Misery / It Will Be Done? I say battered - the intros on both sides are VG then it plays fine.  £50?  £75??

a guy called itzy kline from pittsburg owned the label. he released records that were popular at the time and played by a dj called crazy mike, I think at his own club. there is a full list of about ten records released, and I know there are some that I wondered why ! depends on tastes. but recently driving around ausrtralia the following records, not hard core or rare soul but can be heard on the radio weekly, I suppose its just popular music of the day

ling ting tong ( I was shocked at this one, another version to billy hines)

colour my father

the joker went wild

opus 17

its too late

turn back the hands of time

ciao baby  ( I sit and think "turn it over  PLEASEEEEEE")

no body but me

again and again

 

then all the usual motown, sly, etc
