  7. Just the one VERY elusive label filler…..

Came directly from the owner of PPP who I chanced upon one glorious day, his last file copy. What more can I say! Up for OFFERS. Starting point is £800. I will close at 9pm Thursday 22nd March 2018. I’ll keep in close contact with any bidders updating the topic as we go. PayPal as friends or add 4% or bank transfer please.

  9. Just the one RCA stocker up for grabs today Sound file on request Message any questions or to reserve Willie Kendrick – Change your ways / What’s that on your finger – RCA 9212 Ex £750 One of the hardest issues to find on the label, right up there in competition with Lorraine Chandler and Gia Mateo, and what a picture it makes in all its dark ominous glory. Double bubble here with 2 fantastic sides from the treasure trove of Pied Piper, “Change” the up-tempo R&B tinged Northern dancer, and the stunningly emotive beat ballad “Finger” on the flip, you couldn’t want for 2 better sides and at the opposite end of the soulful spectrum. I thought I’d nailed a copy 2 years ago only for the seller, a very genuine chap, to tell me he was unable to find it in his collection, so the wait went on, and now like busses 2 came along in an instant, so one of the pair is up for grabs. There’s nothing between them condition wise, this copy has signs of light wear on the “Finger” spindle hole and a couple of light pops, so overall the 45 is Excellent condition or better. It is one and the same copy sold by the excellent Phil T last week, so don't worry no 50 count turned up I'm afraid! PayPal as friends or add 4% or bank transfer please. Postage: £8.50 – Special Delivery (Fully insured) Overseas on Request Cheers, Lee
  10. Just the one lovely group dancer up for grabs today Message any questions or to reserve Vanguards – Gott’A have love – Lamp 92 Ex+ £300 HOLD Sits in the shadow of their biggie “Good times, bad times” and the under the radar rarity “Before you take another step girl”. This Herb Miller owned, Bloomington, Indianapolis label was relatively short lived, but a 5-6 year operation threw up not only a host of Vanguards tracks, but also the Pearls “Shooting high”, Moonlighters “Lonely baby” “More than I can stand”, the latter co-written by Bobby Womack and the Ebony Rhythm Band funk monster “Soul heart transplant”. Given that “Take another step” is only known for a handful of copies, and not generally catalogued I suspect there may be other releases on the label yet to surface. This excellent 70s dancer recorded in stereo boasts the usual Vanguards qualities, great lead, deep backing and superb instrument arrangement. Probably not as well known as it should be, but then it keeps good company as mentioned above. Vanguards - Gott'A have love.mp3 PayPal as friends or add 4% or bank transfer please.

  15. Not sure this’ll be on anyone’s wants list, but I’ll give it a go… Message any questions or to make an offer Freddie Chavez – They’ll never know why / Baby I’m sorry – Look 5010 M- Offers The Look label was a relatively short-lived subsidiary of the Starday-King Records Inc merger, which featured Bethlehem, De Luxe and Federal as the others in the stable. Starday Records itself was formed in 1952 in Beaumont, Texas by Pappy Daily and Jack Starnes, Jr. The "Starday" name is a combination of Starnes' and Daily's names an the label recorded Country & Western, Cajun and sacred music. To cater for specific audiences the Look label was supposed to have specialised in mellow rock music, but as with most independent labels in the US they will always feature at least one track that UKs soul aficionados expose, interpret as Soul and take to their hearts. Freddie Chavez was from the South Broadway area of Albuquerque, New Mexico and was the creative force behind Thee Chekkers, with Freddie on vocals & keys, Rolando Baca lead guitar, Severo Flores sax, Gabby Gabaldon trumpet, Gene Romero bass and Ralph Gonzales-drums. Thee Chekkers found their way under the stewardship of John Wagner from Delta Records, he also owned the best studio in town, resulting in their 1968 release on Look 5007 “Please Don't Go / Lack of Love”. Whilst Wagner produced both songs they were written by Chavez. Both tracks got solid airplay on local Duke City radio stations because they looked after their local acts. Thee Chekkers didn’t record anything else under that name but appear behind Freddie on his 1967 Look 5010 double sider “They'll Never Know Why / Baby I'm Sorry”. The top side has ripped up dance floors throughout the UK since its introduction in the 70s. He is also reputedly Dave Newman of “Make up your mind” fame! Freddie moved on to Chicano Soul with the Majestics, and latterly with the Spinning Wheel, a show band with a full horn section that toured the Western states and enjoyed a successful run on the Vegas strip. In 1974 Freddie formed the Freddie Chavez Foundation, which is still active, favouring jazzy soul numbers, pop standards, and every style of Spanish music. Freddie will appear live at SOULTRIPUSA in Vegas between 15-22 March 2018, no doubt some of his immense Northern sides will be performed and will be something special to witness. This blue stock copy is as they say, “as rare as hen’s teeth”, only a handful known, which puts the already hard to find original demos into the shade. A near mint playing surface, which plays back with superb fidelity has only one blemish, a couple of tiny pressed in dimples on the flip slide, but they have no effect on play. There is a red felt tip A on “They’ll never know why” label, and as with most 50 year old 45s there is some light ring wear. If you’re tired with the anthem on the top side, which is brilliant anyway, the underplayed crossover flip is just waiting to take centre stage for the next 50 years…… Freddie you’re a “Genius” Sir. Up for offers, starting at £2000. Will close at 9pm Thursday 8th March 2018. Bidders only appraised of the bid history and being outbid. PayPal as friends or add 4% or bank transfer please. Postage: Special Delivery (Fully insured) Included Overseas to be discussed. Cheers, Lee Freddie Chavez - They'll never know why.mp3 Freddie Chavez - Baby I'm sorry.mp3
  16. A stunning piece of Chicago artistry up for grabs Sound files included PM any questions or to reserve Devotions - Do do de dop / Can you explain it - Nation 61165 WD Ex+ £1500 Piecing together information for solo artists and groups that release only one known outing, not an uncommon occurrence on the scene, it’s nigh on impossible. That said, a lack of provenance is sometimes a good thing for the mystique of an artist, group or their record. One such group is the Devotions and their superb double sider on Nation. We know Butch spun “Do do de dop” covered as “Lovers plea” by “The Magictones”. Even my turn to "Soul Harmony Singles Book", courtesy of legends Jeff Beckman, Jim Hunt and Tom Kline with its 16,000 listings doesn’t reference the artists, correct flip side, label number and year of release, which tells me that in 1998, even though big UK names contributed to the books content, there was still very little definition to this 45, even if a handful of copies sat in the hands of the artists, family, collectors and DJ’s. The Devotions were James Rushing, James Whitlock, McKinley Norris and brothers Ed and John Berryman, all from DuSable High located in the Bronzeville neighborhood on the South Side of Chicago. The group had signed for the Salem-Nation Record Co. Inc, based on South Wentworth Avenue, and whilst theirs is a 1965 release, it’s hard to decipher what releases on this relatively strong label run came in what order. Looking at the likes of Tammy Levon, Jackie Beavers, The Cheers (highly recommended double sider), Silk and Leontine Dupree it’s my guess that the 65 outing was an early release on the label, the question is why didn’t we ever see more from this fine group of guys. When the labels are studied in greater depth, the name “J. Byrd” appears on both sides writer credits. This is highly likely to be “James (Jimmy Early) Byrd” who worked at Boston’s black radio station WILD between 1960-1970. Byrd was known for launching the careers of many R&B legends, and maybe in this and other cases providing the tracks for young aspiring artists to launch their career. He was best known for keeping the peace in Boston the day after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated. The Mayor of Boston wanted to cancel a James Brown concert fearing rioting and it was Jimmy who led the charge that convinced the City to let show proceed. He demonstrated the power of black radio during one of America’s darkest moments. The 45 itself remains rare, sought after and often talked about, and if you’re like me a title like “Do do de dop” may be the signal to ignore! but as we find out the composition, arrangement and lyrics on a track may turn out to be far superior than that in the window display - title. 2 classy sides, full of youthful harmonies and classic horns, one out and out mid to up-tempo dancer the other “Can you explain it” a sublime beat ballad. Just 4-5 very light ticks after the top side intro prevents me going M- on this. PayPal as friends or add 4% or bank transfer please. Postage: Special Delivery or Overseas Tracked and Signed Included. Cheers, Lee 😉 Devotions - Do do de dop.mp3 Devotions - Can you explain it.mp3

  19. A stunning Northern anthem up for grabs, this DJs delight nearly always turns up in very good condition or less, often with writing on labels, but this one is in fabulous shape, so one for the first time or an upgrade. As ever sound files on request. PM any questions or to reserve. Eula Cooper – Let our love grow higher – Super Sound 7002 M- £1250 reduced £1100 Alabama born Eula was not gifted with big recording companies on the doorstep, so she, like so many other artists had to fight her way into the music industry through childhood talent shows, high school performances and acapella whilst out and about in her teenage adopted home of Atlanta. The astute assessment of a local store owner during a shopping trip pointed her in the direction of Jesse Jones, owner of the Tragar label. She recorded a handful of releases on the Tragar label, before Jones set up the Super Sound label in 1970, and unwittingly created the opportunity for Eula to deliver her most desirable track on the Northern scene. “Let Our Love Grow Higher” was written & arranged by Tragar’s Bill Patterson with the support of the in-house team at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, a stamp of quality in anyone’s book. Typically, as with many independent labels the funding was not available to propel this immense dance track into the world of hits, the Super Sound label folded, and the Note label became Eula’s next platform to “hope these dreams will come true”. Vinyl plays play’s perfectly, just one light fingernail mark on near the run out. Labels are beautiful bar a little pin prick of white under the right-hand side credits and spindle wear on centre rim. I can’t imagine it will be easy to find another in such stunning condition.

She recorded a handful of releases on the Tragar label, before Jones set up the Super Sound label in 1970, and unwittingly created the opportunity for Eula to deliver her most desirable track on the Northern scene. “Let Our Love Grow Higher” was written & arranged by Tragar’s Bill Patterson with the support of the in-house team at Muscle Shoals Sound Studio, a stamp of quality in anyone’s book. Typically, as with many independent labels the funding was not available to propel this immense dance track into the world of hits, the Super Sound label folded, and the Note label became Eula’s next platform to “hope these dreams will come true”. Vinyl plays play’s perfectly, just one light fingernail mark on near the run out. Labels are beautiful bar a little pin prick of white under the right-hand side credits and spindle wear on centre rim. I can’t imagine it will be easy to find another in such stunning condition.
