Glynthornhill Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 (edited) CARLENA WILLIAMS & THE NORTH CAROLINAS - SOULFUL DROP IN THE BUCKET CRATES OF SOUL RECORDS - CATALOGUE NO : CS004 RELEASE DATE : FRIDAY 8TH NOV, 2019 . LIMITED EDITION : 250 COPIES 7" VINYL . The bottomless pit of music history continues to give back in this digital age of convenience as Crates Of Soul offer a limited edition vinyl 45. Our quest to shine a light on previously unheard and unissued music continues and it's hard to believe this is 35 years old... Carlena Williams recorded the demo with the sole intention of striking a record deal which for one reason or another never materialised . Luckily the cassette tape remained as evidence sat shelved lingering in obscurity unheard and unloved. This lo - fi D.I.Y. recording with sparse production alongside Carlena's ascending sweet vocals weave into a modern soul mid tempo groove. Limited to 250 copies - so before it becomes hard to acquire take the opportunity to pre - order . We are making the first 100 copies available at £10 plus postage SOLD Only one copy per customer - gives every one a chance prior to release next month when the retail price increases. PM here for details or alternatively email : cratesofsoul@sky.com Edited November 1, 2019 by Glynthornhill Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Geoff Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Why only 250 copies? I would have thought there is a slightly bigger market than that. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Simon T Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 One of my all time faves. I didn't realise she wrote it, so it's good to see she'll be getting some royalties at last. Is she well? What's on the b side, the instrumental? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

We always press 250 copies to maintain the authenticity Limited Edition only fair to those who buy into the ethos - We will never repress or rerun as some label's do... FYI over 175 copies already sold at pre order The price is now £11 plus pp ( 100 were at £10 ) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
