DON VARNER

 

Quinvy

8002

 

Tear Stained Face / Mojo Mama

 

Aside from the wear on the label, this is a solid copy.  The playing surface has very

good color and gloss, with very light marks.  Both sides sound great and have no issues.

If you have questions or concerns, please send those in advance of .

 

ricky.

650gbp at todays ER which seems very reasonable to me considering how good it is.

 

i think plenty of collectors would happily match that price.

Great B side  - basically £325 for each side bargain 

Classic oldie “Tear Stained Face” by Don Varner coupled with the original flip side “Mojo Mama” originally titled “32 Miles From Waycross”. When Edwin Starr’s “25 Miles” was later issued it was considered so similar that the writers Jerry Wexler and Bert Berns were given joint credits.

Are you saying Wexler & Berns were given writing credits on 25 Miles?  Really ? What's the source of your information ?

Last time I looked, the composers of 25 Miles remain credited as Johnny Bristol / Harvey Fuqua / Edwin Starr ...

 

Thanks for all the info guy's much appreciated.
