These two records were Originally released in the U.S.A.

and they are quite Rare.

Due to demand in the 70's these two were released in the UK

using the same layout as the U.S.A. White DEMO

Ultra Sonic never seen any like that, most of them are Virtue stamped.

Yes, that's what I thought.

I bought the two Mickey Lee Lane copies from Soul Bowl.

Not sure if it is just that release, or others as well.

Thought that I would highlight the Stamp,

purely for the reason that you don't see it very often.

Is it like this one, which has "MASTERING RECO-ART PHILA" & "AudioMatrix"

The next question has got to be, Is SAMMY SEVENS actually CHUBBY CHECKER

Sorry, My fault, I wasn't suggesting that it should have.

I was just using this Chubby Checker record to show the

"MASTERING

RECO-ART PHILA"

That is a very nice Swan DEMO that you have there mate.

First time that I have seen one.

so we have a "ultra sonic" a "virtue" & a "mastering reco-art phila" stamp, why?

maybe pressed at different plants? or at different times?

Yes, a bit of both I think.

Here is a >>> LINK <<< to a Beatles Swan Records Site.

Looks like the Early ones were mainly pressed at

"MASTERING

RECO-ART PHILA"

However , some are Manarch STAMPED as well.

Looks like an East Coast / West Coast thing happening too.

Dancing Party definitely early & your Sammy Sevens is an early number.

just checked out swan label discography site sammy sevens is listed as pressed in 1963 although it has his name as sammy stevens.

Mmm! Interesting, 1963 is Spot On,

I have just had a look at the CD "Swan's Soul Sides" from Kent. Definitely Sammy Sevens.

Possibly a Typo on the website

That's where I got the reference to "Chubby Checker" sound-alike.

Just noticed "And In Return" is on That CD, That will teach me to skip tracks, Doh! frusty2.gif

Great early 60s listening

ive had eddie carlton misery twice.i noticed the vinyl is mega thin,you can bend it a fair bit(not to much now if trying this half canned,,dont try this @ home!!!)is all swan 45s like this.

i also do think the quality on this 45 is not as good as the rest.i thot it was my copy,but when check'd cd it was the same.yet the b-side it will be done is very clear.

i know nothing to do with original post,but thot id but in & ask anyway,lol.

cheers steve
