At the time You could still expect almost to find these in Second Hand shops, if you were lucky, Happy Days :thumbsup:

You could still fill the Dance floor with these 40 years later :thumbsup:

Hi Mel

Know what you mean about the centre, It wasn't me, It was like that when I bought it.

Why did people do that. :thumbsup: We only knew the british labels at the time.

I picked this one up in a Second Hand Shop

Hi Mel

In 40 years things happen to records, finding a Mint copy gets harder.

The more I think about it, it never made much sense as I bought it with the replacement centre.

It wasn't like record players were geared up to this. It might have been in a Jukebox I suppose.

Anyway here are another two with their centres intact, not rare but Oh the memories. :shhh:

That's All I Want To Know - James Carr - Stateside -

it certainly does get harder mate but what really amazes me is when you find english unplayed.I bought a Little Queenie yellow demo about 7 yrs ago and it was unplayed I was taken into care for a week at the local hospital.

I remember reading about The Wheel closing just after I'd started buying Blues & Soul on a regular basis, however I'd heard Bobby Wells (on the white re-issue) at a local pub disco... Still love it to bits, and have maybe come to appreciate these period gems even more in recent years! (How I wish I'd tracked down more of them when I had the chance - but then don't we all...!) I've still got a soft spot for UK labels I must admit. I think it's a generational thing... :thumbsup:

It is a great record and I love it, though I personally only heard it sometime around 1974. I asked a few people about it (including Colin Curtis) and none of them mentioned it as having been a Wheel spin. I think that the import copies were too widely available for it to get spins in the 70's. As far as I know, it WASN'T played at the Wheel, despite being a "UK issue" on President, however I wasn't there so...

My Elusive Dreams - Moses & Joshua Dillard - Stateside -

OH YES! Another genuine all-time favourite of mine! I still play this when I want to get the "feel" of the Sixties clubs (as I imagine them!) and it's always on my "sixties club" tapes. So exciting.

Evergreen and slow as you like.

And that reference to Porgy & Bess in the intro... "I Got Plenty Of Nothing..."
