Posted February 12, 20196 yr While going through old Record Worlds , I spotted this ad for their latest releases. Mary Wheeler's "Prove It" is shown as Parkway #975. I've only seen it as Calla #111. Parkway #975 is a missing # on most Parkway discographies. Does anyone know how this ended up on the Calla label or seen it on Parkway ?
February 12, 20196 yr I boght it new on Calla in 1967 or 1968. I've never seen it on Parkway. Calla was distributed by Cameo-Parkway at that time. I don't remember Cameo or Parkway leasing any Calla records to put out on one of their own labels.
February 13, 20196 yr Author Thanks Robbert ! I did some research on Discogs and found out that the matrix info for "Prove It" is C111 with a 975 AR scratched out and for "Fresh Out Of Tears" - "CAllAlll" with 975 B scratched out.
February 13, 20196 yr They must have been negotiating for the lease arrangement, and it fell through at the last minute.
