Just read a suggestion for a euro only 45 thread

may have had similar sort of ones in past

but a determined effort to list all seems like a good monday morning thing to me

so here ya go

off top of head I say qualifying criteria is any 45s that have had a 45 release in euro land but not in either uk or usa

scans and pic covers most welcome

sure that if can link to refosoul clip (if already up or upload if not )

(if uploading please check first - if up can link via the oh so easy refosoul clip insert

as a sort of catch all thread will say any obvious/already mentioned in current and past threads welcome

bonus points for obscure

Mexico on EP Coral

trammps stop and think is on dutch german and french philly int 45

only on UK/US LP

I'm pretty sure that "Stop And Think" was issued here as the B-side of "Trammps Disco Theme"...

Here's a few that weren't, though (and that I think had no US equivalent):

Nona Hendryx - Love Is Like An Itching In My Heart

Sammy Davis Jr - John Shaft

Frankie Valli - Just Look What You've Done

...sorry, that's the best I can do on a Monday morning! I'll try to think of a few more later on

TONE

Supremes `Long Gone Lover` on the flip to the Dutch ´Come See About Me`

Salena Jones `Am I The Same Girl` again Dutch only CBS 45

Cheers Paul

Not the best track ever, or even remotely northern... but The Supremes version of "Only Sixteen" was issued TWICE in Denmark with different catalogue numbers and different sleeves! Never issued as a 7" in the UK or US as far as I know.

Also issued in Japan as a 7"...with 'Cupid' as the flip.

Hesitations 45 that James Trouble was interested in on another thread....

German Jackie Wilson Pic Sleeve.

Mel Turner - Singing in the rain - UA

Right lads, before I flood this thread

What's the posting criteria? Does it just need to be an European issue of some US soul record?

Got a decent amount of stuff around...

Supposed to be European only issues - IE No U.S. 45 release at the time.

Can anyone help me with the release of wilson pickett "baby dont you weep " and "peace breaker" I've told both were out on german and Italian releases but I dont have any details.

Thanks

I think it was Marc Forrest who said in another thread that there were plenty of copies around in Germany. It didn't ring any bell for me but after I've seen that scan I confirm what Marc said. I picked up plenty of copies over the years and sold them all to UK collectors. Didn't know that it never came out on 45 anywhere, always assumed it was sought after because of the picture cover! (now where's that head-banging-on-the-wall emoticon when you need it? )

Other euro-only 45s that I can think of now are

Archie Bell - thousand wonders - Spanish Atlantic

Four Tops - Helpless - French EP

Jackie Edwards - I feel so bad (duet version) - French EP

And i think the greek release of either Frank Beverly-If that's what you wanted or Dee Dee Sharp-What kind of lady was a different mix not issued on 45 anywhere else??

Apologies if I've breached the rules as this DID get a release in the USA (not sure in UK)....BUT just look at this super Dutch sleeve!

Thanks mischief !

Now does anyone know of Wilson Pickett doing " Peace Breaker" on Italian or German release.

Thanks once again guys and girls.

Have this and was told years ago this was Uk ( European ?) only, ie. no US release ? Still not certain.

Ahh, just re- read thread, Euro only not including UK aswell as USA...........i am now disqualified.............

Right peeps,

not sure if all of the following will fit the picture, but then again you'll see some stuff you don't see everyday ;-)

Let's roll

Tamiko Jones - Let it flow - Contempo IT

Carol Douglas - Headline news - Rca Victor IT

Marie Knight - Cry me a river - Musicor IT - This is one of my current fave. Ask Karen the Soulgirl about it ;-)

Arthur Conley - Piu' bellissima - Ri-fi - Italian only - It's a Southern Soul/R&B pastiche half sung in Italian. I doubt it was released anywhere else ;-)

Dionne Warwick - Dedicato all'amore - Scepter IT - Two slowies

Four Tops - Bernardette EP - Tamla FR - Containing Bernardette/Brenda/I got a feeling/Then

Nancy Holloway - Tu n'est pas venu - Decca FR - This is the real deal, gutsy midtempo r&B with a sparse

arrangement and wicked wha-doo-doo type choruses! Yann Vatiste had to stop and listen

to it while I played at Cleethorpes.
