When I bought few as NOS in Boston some 17 years ago, I had as many yellows as greens. But looking at the sales on the eVilBay there seem to be indeed less yellows floating around. I kept my green one to fit with the other releases on Gemini.

Probably seen as many yellows as green in my time. No difference in price IMO.

Now Sold, well it is on hold pending payment.  Thanks for the interest.

And you see this even less.

Manufactured by Gateway recordings...?

Mine doesn't have any distribution info on it...

Different text, Lime green instead of the deeper green, the Gateway manufacture text at the bottom and I think it's harder to find than the yellow and other green copies.

Interesting! Just thought that colour was the outcome of Chalky's scan.

what about mine, please tell me its not a boot!

My scan is the same colour as the record...it is a decent scanner.  The Lime green is the least frequent colour I've seen, rarely checked the mid green to see what is at the bottom to be honest although Mark's is tough then the one I listed.

ahhh, well i never knew any of that!

 

looks like a boot to me Gary!!!

 

Just to add to the set, here's my copy.

I dwelt in The L.A. Area during 1966-72, and I've seen LOTS of BOTH  green issues and the yellow issue.  Actually, the yellow was the rarest, and I don't remember seeing that one until 1970 or so, so maybe that was a legit re-issue?

Few more for you.....

Just gone and checked mine Mark and its identical text,colour etc but without the "Manufactured by Gateway" etc round the bottom…….identical otherwise. Never realised there were so many variations of this……..

Apologies for poor quality photo

I'm surprised Conwell doesn't have more records to his credit, he had a fantastic voice.

Have to agree Ivor, The New Group is good.

Is that an error on the label that says the time of "Gotta Have Money" is 3.35. The 45's have it as 2.36? Or is it a "longer, extended, 12" mix"!!

Edited May 5, 20169 yr by bo diddley

Just checked it is 3:35

I believe his career was interrupted by vietnam or something iirc.  Ruben will know the full story.

He has a few more records but all under different names.  Richard Temple, Smoked Sugar etc
