The Yank Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 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 ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 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. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
The Yank Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 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.

Robbk Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 They must have been negotiating for the lease arrangement, and it fell through at the last minute. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
