So there's the raging debate on OVO thread but what about the music eh?

No arguments about OVO etc and should they/should they not be played out (I know my humble opinion) but how about a look at some of the fantastic unreleased tracks on legit labels that have found favour whether on the dancefloor or at home. Label owners / publishing companies feel free to promote and give us a taste of what may be to come!

Will kick off with a couple of easy ones:

Gloria Shannon - Tears (Are A Gift From Heaven) - REALSIDE

Dottie Pearson - Bring It Over Baby / House Made Of Love - Grapevine

There's plenty out there without having to resort to the same old boots / oldies. Plenty of recent releases but what about forgotten ones?

.....................and i'm damn glad it's not me administering the list!

Rich you have all my sympathies mate BUT you're doing an excellent job!

Just a few more thoughts?..............i believe the list is of previously unreleased tracks that have since been legally issued on 45? This would mean Garland Green's 'Come thru me' would qualify even tho' it did get an initial release on a Kent LP BUT at the time it was unreleased from years before? (The LP is of course the 'original' release BUT that's not the point of this thread!)

G C Cameron on Flamingo shouldn't qualify cos it was a new release at the time wasn't it? (simply being a UK only 45 doesn't qualify it does it?).

Same should go for Bobby McClure on Island, Bobby Byrd on Contempo etc?

Percy Stone shouldn't count as it was released.

Barons should as it was acetate only.

Marvelettes LP track shouldn't count?

Duane Williams on Soul Junction is a new release isn't it and shouldn't qualify?

Side Effect came out on an LP at the time and therefore shouldn't count?

...........and finally (to pi** Sean off )..............Aleshure..........(relatively) new release at the time that had already been out on CD? (going for my hard hat!)

What's the jury think?

What a list though!

Steve

I had a feeling this was going to get complicated

But under the 'rules' laid down (as Steve mentions above), then I do have to agree with him on all the above... although I'm not quite sure about the reasoning behind the Garland Green track, as strictly speaking it was still out on an LP prior to gaining a release on a 45 - for quite a few years at that.!

**********************

As far as I can find out, the Contours "Baby hit and run" was released on TMG 886 in February 1974

But the LP on Music For Pleasure - I have conflicting dates, some say January 1974 and others say May 1974

But I still seem to think it was played originally from the LP and later issued on a 45, so we could still do with a bit more info to confirm one way or another which is actually correct.

Also, does this qualify?

Johnny Moore - "Can't Live Without Your Love"/"Hello Baby" - Dottie Pearson Bee Cool White-Label Promo

This was a promo-only tie-in between Manifesto and Grapevine, but I don't know if it had been issued before........

Co-incidentally I have a few for sale on the sales thread @ a fiver a pop........

Hello Ian,

The Johnny Moore track had previously been issued in the US but Dottie Pearson's "Hello Baby" was unreleased until it came out on the Grapevine album.

I don't recall if we made the Grapevine / Bee Cool 45s before the album was released. The other interesting point, I suppose, is that the Grapevine / Bee Cool 45s were essentially promo copies, issued free as a covermount project.

But MCPS, for example, still charge mechanical royalties (at special rates) for covermount projects, so it could be argued that it was a commercial issue.

I'll have to think about this one.

The following is taken from the MFP album cover..

This album includes two tracks never previously issued on an album - Baby Hit And Run a stomping dance item featuring an outstanding arrangement and excellent lyrics, which sounds as though it were recorded in 1965, and their version of the Temptations' 1965 hit It's Growing, which is presumably of similar vintage. These cuts were issued in Britain early in 1974 and met with considerable success.

So I believe the above is correct and the single came first.

So, Johnny Moore NO (released on Jadan), Dottie Pearson YES (Released on a CD first BUT was unreleased from many years before). It may not have been for sale (as such) BUT was legal, so should count imho

Aye John but it was an unreleased track at the time of the Kent LP - must have been 15 years old when it appeared on the Green Kent LP? It must qualify for our little list, surely?

The only issue, which I don't think is the main reason of the thread (although the list 'could' be useful for Jocks to pick out unreleased tracks without reprisal from the cops ).......is that the true 'original' issue of GG is the Kent LP and that anyone found playing the Kent Anniversary 45 in it's place should be shot at dawn Sure Brett will concur on this

Same goes for a few other things on the list, like Syl Johnson (unrel track released 15 years later on a Jap LP then 20 years later on a Grapevine 45)

So, are these still allowed on the list chaps or not?

Cheers

LOL, couldn't resist. Apologies for my opportunistic ways but I'm just a born bull-shitter LOL!

But I am always sniffing out stuff like this and I'm now falling over stuff in the hallway so I've got to get some of this stuff out quick! Wanna do some wholesale mate?

Also, I'm damn sure I've some stuff to add to the list but it means trawling through my UK 7"'s to find those oddball releases. But I'm sure there's a few more to add.

Plus I'll have a hallway full of Limited-Edition U.S. 7" copies of "Cafe Regio's" - Gary The Masterblaster on Soul Intention Records this time next week and..........

....................look at that!

It's disgusting. I just can't stop plugging can I?

It's about time the Soul Police had an investigation into their regulators and consultants anyway. I'm sick of these bloody beaurocrats questioning our every statement!

Does The Chesterfields on Grapevine count? I understand that was previously unissued.

Also, the Jeffree "Love Loan" shouldn't count because it appeared on his CD a few years before.

Chesterfields should be on the list as it was an acetate only thing via Butch wasn't it?

Jeffree is summat i was pondering on too! The CD came out in 1996 BUT was 'Love loan' a track made at the time? If so, it doesn't qualify imho? For some reason i thought it was an old record made years before and stuck on the CD...............it certainly sounds like it? If that were the case, it'd be the same as Garland Green! Will need to dig it out and read the sleeve notes i reckon................................the jury's out on Jeffree

I went thru a load of stuff last night and wrote a few more 45s down - will try and add to the list later

I'm surprised Rich didn't mention it because I'm told he has a few Chesterfields in stock.

Thought the CD came first, and the single was only issued due to demand (and wasn't it to co-incide with his UK tour?) - might have got that last bit wrong. Like the Contours Which begs the question why would Tamla Motown issue the Contours on a mainstream UK 45 release if it hadn't had any exposure? OK fair enough they did just that it seems, but it strikes me as odd - good work on their part though.

...Same goes for a few other things on the list, like Syl Johnson (unrel track released 15 years later on a Jap LP then 20 years later on a Grapevine 45...

Hello Steve,

I hadn't mentioned the Syl Johnson 45 because I expected the regulatory authorities to raise objections due to the earlier Japanese LP.

But if we've abolished all the rules and regulations I suppose we can do what the hell we want.

So let's add it to the list ...and to hell with the consequences!

I think that was the whole point on the other OVO, Crap Venues thread Steve. I think it was a discussion as to what consituted OV and I wrote:-

"In that case can anyone explain the deal with The Contours "Baby Hit And Run" then?

An old recording which had never been heard by anyone and which was a pure 100% Northern monster which was issued in the UK on Motown without ANY OVO or Northern Soul related activity whatsoever!

Or is this the exception which proves the rule?"

It was weird and it came totally out of the blue.

The word spread on the grapevine that there was UK Motown new single release of an unknown Contours track which was pure Northern and brilliant. Rod from Heckmondwike told me about it about a day after he'd heard it in a local record shop, so I rushed down to Jumbos in Leeds and as soon as I got in the shop they played it! Hunter and Trevor @ Jumbos couldn't believe it either.

Very odd.

Yes it's odd that we can't remember any advance promotion before it was issued. Was it really just a case of someone at EMI stumbling on the master and deciding to give it a try?

If so, I'm very glad they did.

I have gone off to find some soul police to see if order can be restored.

I'm not making meself clear here am i

I know the CD came first in 1996 way before the 45 BUT was 'Love loan' a track made at the time of the release of the CD i.e. 1996? If so, it doesn't qualify for the list? For some reason i thought it was an old record made years before and stuck on the '96 CD i.e. made in say 1977?...............it certainly sounds like it (although haven't listened to it for ages, there's probably drum machines and computers all thru it and it's my cloth ears thinking it's an old record!)? If it was an old record stuck on a '96 CD, it'd be the same situation as Garland Green! Will need to dig it out and read the sleeve notes i reckon................................the jury's still out on Jeffree

My head hurts..................

The only issue, which I don't think is the main reason of the thread (although the list 'could' be useful for Jocks to pick out unreleased tracks without reprisal from the cops ).......is that the true 'original' issue of GG is the Kent LP and that anyone found playing the Kent Anniversary 45 in it's place should be shot at dawn Sure Brett will concur on this

Agreed Steve, i'd probably prefer a Bingham Model 14 bolt action clip magazine rifle with 4x32 Simmons Scope. Its a

Good Working Rifle for Pest Control Etc, but then again i'm not fussy.

Has anyone mentioned Bob & Gene on Modo 1032 " I Can Be Cool"/"You Don't Need Me", previousally unissued ?, but i know it was taken from an unreleased LP that also came out via Daptone.......Which was first ? If it's the album, then i'm changing the rules, you can't have album first tracks.

Steve,

It may have been recorded in 1980 (and even been released at the time but I'm not sure). Expansion put it out on a 45 later because of it's popularity and to co-incide with their Best Of Jeffree CD.

I don't think it qulaifies for this list

Think " Torture " came out on Kent LP first Steve .The others could qualify though .Think Sam Moore might have slipped out in small quantities on Atlantic - can anyone confirm ? Some good suggestions though mate Best,Eddie

Just a quick question:

Bobby Cutchins - Leaving (Soul Junction)

I know this also was issued in the States on Lasso - but was it before or after the Soul Junction release?

Just curious...

Maybe another nomination?

Milton Wright - Like a rolling stone - Satiron

previously unreleased recording that came out on the flipside of "i belong to you" on Satiron, a John Anderson 70s private press prior to the Grapevine release.

Maybe another nomination?

Milton Wright - Like a rolling stone - Satiron

Would that not make 'I belong to you' eligible too then?

Would that not make 'I belong to you' eligible too then?

yes sure, my mistake. just checked it on Manship's site, it was "like a rolling stone" that was released back in the 60s on Carla (flipside to "the gallop") so it's "i belong to you" that came out first on Satiron.

Or is "like a rolling stone" on Carla an instrumental take?

Like A Rolling Stone on Carla is an instrumental. Satiron is the first release of the vocal version.

Apologies if this has already been mentioned as I havent read the whole thread but has Steve Mancha - He Stole A love That Was Mine had a legit release on vinyl?

Maybe another nomination?

Milton Wright - Like a rolling stone - Satiron

previously unreleased recording that came out on the flipside of "i belong to you" on Satiron, a John Anderson 70s private press prior to the Grapevine release.

I reckon both sides are valid .Also how about Johnny Watson - It's better to cry , that slipped out a few years back ? Best,Eddie

Renaldo Domino - I'll Get You Back / Two Years - Four Days (SINCERE/NUMERO)

also my label (Lotus Land) is right about to put out an unreleased and amazing version of Larom Baker 'You're the Best' recorded at Curtom a year or so after the first version. that should be out mid-winter. in fact we are planning a compilation of 100% unreleased modern soul (late 70s/early 80s) for next summer with some knockout stuff on it.

We releaed on Inferno:

Gotta Get Closer To my Love - The Showstoppers

Good record.

Rick Cooper found a white label on US Party Time so it was planned USA release for the 60's, but we were the first to put it out.

Being flip side to "Ain't Nothing But A Houseparty" on the Inferno release it sold well too, around 6,000.

The Lasso one is definately legitimate, in association with Bobby Cutchins.
