How odd, I've got a Japanese Lp that I bought over 20 years ago that i have only played once. I feel I need to re-visit it.

Does anyone know what the origins are of this LP?

Is it the Japanese LP binsy is referring to? Or a bootleg? Or a legitimate release from the 70s?

Legit 70s issue by all appearances.

So Says My Heart was re-issued on the same label design as the LP above.

Thanks, it indeed looks like it belongs to that 70s reissue series.

However, on the back cover there are two Japanese names at the art/cover deisgn credits (no other clues for a Japanese origin). The back cover contains the Nashville address as on the label pictured.

So perhaps this is again a (legit) reissue of a Japanese LP? Or a Japanese LP after all?

Did John Richbourg issue any other LPs in this particular Seventy-Seven series?

Ann Sexton "Loving you, loving me" (Seventy Seven 77-107) has the same label, and the photographer is the same guy, Hiroshi Uenoyama.

A copy sold recentlty for $930.00 ! Loving you, loving me

Both LP's were reissued in Japan on Vivid Sound.

& 'Little Bag Of Tricks' put that one up on refosoul sometime back, see if i can fish it out.

The SS7 copy LP pictured in an earlier thread was released in '77.

The Japanese copy came out the following year, and has their VIVID logo on the cover in place of the SS7 logo.

Here's a large-font scan of the superb 'So says my heart'.

Like that one too Phillipe

Presume you have seen the 'The Beat' set of dvd's ? Some great quality footage on there of him singing some of these tunes whilst he was in his prime circa 65/66

If not, have a word with Pete Smith on here, he will be able to point you in the right direction as to where you can source them. Well worth a look.
