Bit quiet on this thread so far today Here's a good one and the best side of this particular record in my opinion Have everything on this iconic label with the exception of Freddie Butler on 10001 - not that great a 45 and too expensive in relation to the quality It's a toss-up whether you call the label Wheelsville or Wheelsville USA - two schools of thought Cheers Richard

Says PLUG SIDE on the DJ copies and is by far the better song One of my all time favourites and a perfect example of that mid-tempo 60s Detroit girlie sound Cheers Richard

It certainly is Mr. F Cheers Richard

Pete 'Who Am I' the official A side Cheers Richard

Nice one Derek Cheers Richard

Carms - is this the same group? Garu label is San Antonio Texas. Cheers Richard

And isn't that Keb Darge dancing on the Vodafone advert? Cheers Richard

Why is it? It says Disc Jockey copy and the picture (I assume not the disc for sale) also shows the DJ copy with Not For Sale writing etc. Surely the boot you refer to is a grey label without any such writing? Cheers Richard

Didn't rate this - then it grew on me and I love it Other side not bad either Cheers Richard

Here's one of the best I reckon Early sound like a top quality Lee Rogers track Seems quite hard to pick up Cheers Richard

Cheers Chalky There are so many Detroit-related 45s with blurred boundaries - and Robert Bateman's name appears on a few Others include the Ric Williams labels - Boo and Zodiac - which although Chicago labels I believe, were heavily Detroit recorded and produced on several releases Makes this collecting lark interesting anyway Presume both the Harrison Brothers and Douglas Gibson recordings were Detroit recorded - anyone confirm please? Cheers Richard

This is a truly superb thread - has gone a long way to restoring my love and faith in Soul Source. Much appreciation for the depth of knowledge, passion and sense of history of the posters Genuinely fascinating stuff. Thank you all. Richard

Well which one of you was it then - for those who didn't hear it Dean actually read it out and thought the message said" is your radio show OVER" Richard

On air now and Dean's looking for inspiring and interesting discussion topics - so why not phone, email, text into the show Dean Anderson - "Northern Soul Show" on Tulip Radio now!!! 7-9pm www.tulip-radio.co.uk Cheers Richard

One I need in case anyone can help please Here's a couple of scans lifted from the internet somewhere Cheers Richard

That's the fella Cheers Richard

Here's a decent double-sider by Jackie & Tonetts - who also recorded on Wheel City which was part of the same group of labels. Cheers Richard

Hi Dave Yes, isn't that a West Coast project bought in and released on the label? Also, wasn't Roosvelt Grier a pro football or baseball player - or am I getting confused with someone else? Cheers Richard

Gigi & Charmaines discog here on soulfulkindmusic.com https://www.soulfulkindamusic.net/gigi.htm The CD also has lost of info and may have a discog - can't remember but notes were informative as I recall mate Cheers Richard

Wilxy - you are a man of excellent taste Richard

And here's the best side by far - and why it was the A-side A contender for my top 5 on the right day Cheers Richard

One of the best on the label this Here's the 'Northern' side - actually the official B side Cheers Richard

IMO a fake is a fake is a fake - whether fake Rolex, fake DVDs, fake tenners, or fake Northern Soul. What is the opposite to OVO? NOVO (not OVO) BVO (bootleg vinyl only) CVO (counterfeit ...) Cheers Richard

Here's an issue with the 689 mix As the Peps rather than the Fabulous Peps - plus the other side song title is mis-spelt Cheers Richard
