 Yea, Same with Bobby Womack's" Something for my Head" released on this label too so another track now none LP Only

I don't "count" these later issues myself. I think if there is no contemporary 45 release then its LP only

Cheers Paul

Garland Green was released on an Expansion 7” in 2016

Didnt realise that. To be honest I was viewing the question from the POV that there wasnt a current 45 issue of a track at the time of release (or at least within a year) rather than 39 years later.

Enjoying this thread - always on the look out for LP recommendations, esp 70's and 80's. Here's a few favourites of mine I don't think have been mentioned:-

Leon Haywood - Fair warnin' ('Back to stay' LP)

Gene Townsel - I'm walking away ('Time wounds all heels' LP)

Richard 'Popcorn' Wylie - How did I lose you ('Extrasensory Perception' LP)

O.V. Wright - Let's straighten it out ('The bottom line' LP)

Prince Phillip Mitchell - You'll throw bricks at him ('Make it good' LP)

Vocies of East Harlem - Take a stand ('Can you feel it' LP)

Smoke - Sunshine Roses and Rainbows ('Smoke' LP, also released as Blacksmoke) - possibly the best fiver I've ever spent 

Clydene Jackson - I need your love ('Fresh' LP)

 

I mean with Willie Hutch, Jerry Butler, David Ruffin, Lamont Dozier etc its really like shooting fish in a barrel !

From his 'Concert in Blues' LP

 

Kim tolliver “i’m Loosing the feeling”

 

well regarded by many I love it and rate it as one of her best

Swiss Movement - Come Around Here - from the It's Time For The Swiss Movement LP.

Paul Dallison played it on Saturday at slim Jenkins Place in Sheffield - I can't get it out of my head, it's superb.

Isn't it a more recent release though, i.e. years after the Lp?

I must apologise, but I think there is some confusion here which came from somewhere....... the thread was and I quote

"Does anybody recommend any 70s

Album only tracks" and I have just tried to stick to the thread. 😀

As have most and many do not count 45s released years after for the scene.  To many they are still LP only tracks. 

If I was running a venue I would want the Lp on the turntable rather than an expansion release.

Well the problem if I recall , as you will no doubt know, with the particular LP in question Gene Townsel, is that part of the LP was poorly mixed and ran into the next track without a gap and I can clearly remember Mo playing the Single and Mick holding up the LP to prove they had it

Amusing at the time and it wasn't until I bought the LP that I realised. Fortunately, I no longer DJ, so it isn't a problem for me

Sadly not an LP only release anymore

Richard Searling released it in on single ( a bit like I didn't realise on the Mascara track above)

Why ‘sadly ‘???

Thelma Houston - Nothing left to give - on U.K. and some EU releases only. This track is NOT on the USA MW102 release  I think I have a spare in my sales somewhere

Great stuff - always reminds me of Cleethorpes weekenders after it featured in the C4 doc

'Baby that's a no no' and 'Do I deserve it baby' also killer album-only cuts as far as I know

If you think that's a lack of foresight back in '81 I bought 25 Sherlock Holmes on Part III and left around 500 !

Don't worry. The dutch release is a late 70s reissue, worth about 15 quid max.

Yes. Was on catalogue in Netherlands and for some reason still available up until the 90s...

Or this

 

Slightly off topic but Louis Theroux chose this as one of his tracks recently for Desert Island Discs. My respect for him increased 1000 fold !!!!
