The one's I listed are all UK releases.

The one's I listed are all UK releases.

So sorry Soul-Slider, for some reason I thought they looked like American Import labels, what with the numbering systems.

One of my faults I'm afraid, I tend to open my big gob before engaging my brain or checking my facts.

Do you have copies of all these Lp's by chance?

THE BEST OF - LONDON 1967 (fantastic album! and rare)

YOU BETTER GET IT - ATLANTIC 1969 (although label say's 1965?)

Hi Eddie

Not 100% sure I am correct with my facts here.

Seem to remember reading it years ago so could be wrong!!! No idea who they are by if not Joe.

Do remember Bill Millar writing that the tracks on the Roy C 'That Shotgun Wedding Man' on UK Ember were not by him so it does happen.

Pete

Thanks Pete.

Hi Denbo

Have PM'd you.

Pete

Talking of Joe Tex LP's, does 'I Wanna Be Free' appear on any of the original release LP's (as opposed to later compilations) ?
