Posted March 13, 200916 yr Just read Dave Moore's thread in Events Lookback about Mel Britt. I'm a bit confused........where and when was this gathering with Mel Britt present? Anyway, reading about Mel Britt on Dave's thread got me thinking. One of the nicest looking labels (IMHO) is the yellow and blue FIP label of Mel Britt's She'll Come Running Back. That song is the only record I've ever seen on this label. Are there other NS/soul tunes on this label? KTF. Drew.

It's red and not blue though.
March 13, 200916 yr Author Yes. There is a record by lenny satin on the same label. It's red and not blue though. Cheers boba. Anyone got a scan of the red one or any others on this label? KTF. Crew.
March 13, 200916 yr Cheers boba. Anyone got a scan of the red one or any others on this label? KTF. Crew. Lennie Satin - Somebody Help Me / Homebound IMO it sounds quite sounthern even though its from Chicago. I'll post up a scan tonight, unless someone does it before me.
March 13, 200916 yr Both sides of the Lennie Satin 45 are pretty good in their own right. The label is red with a white logo, black type and is pressed on vinyl. I haven't seen one for sale for quite a while, but it's well worth picking up if you like early 70s Chicago soul.

I haven't seen one for sale for quite a while, but it's well worth picking up if you like early 70s Chicago soul. By the way, I met the label owner of this label once (sort of accidentally), the label is actually Fipi and not Fip and he pronounced it "fippi". Fipi publishing is on some other records (like the specials on satch) but he didn't remember those releases, only the released on his label. I think those 2 45s are the only ones on the label.
March 13, 200916 yr Lennie Satin - Homebound.Great 45.Bought this years ago,not seen one for sale in ages.Think it may have been spun back in the 70's at The Ritz alldayers in Manchester if my memory serves me.
March 13, 200916 yr Cheers boba. Anyone got a scan of the red one or any others on this label? KTF. Crew. One here,got this from soulsupermarket,hope the owner dont mind..Graham
March 13, 200916 yr One here,got this from soulsupermarket,hope the owner dont mind..Graham You thieving **** . No, I don't mind you taking scans off my site....one of the nice things about doing my sales on there for the last few years is I now have a library of well over 2,000 label scans. Be even better if I can get the site fixed in the near future . Pretty sure I've still got that 45, don't remember selling it so must be here somewhere. Adam.
March 14, 200916 yr Author I think those 2 45s are the only ones on the label. So She'll Come Running Back is the only known record to have the yellow and blue stripes FIP label then? KTF. Drew.

Copies of Lennie Satin often turned up on Soul Bowl lists, (not usually in the "Northern Rarities" section though). Edited March 15, 200916 yr by mel brat
