    Frederick Hymes - Originals?

    in Look At Your Box

    Posted

    I don't think he is a bootlegger

    More like a misleader

    He has put out several tunes that obviously came from tapes or even possibly made to measure?

    And they seem to be consistently  good on the ears?

    Everyone liked them at the time and bought heavily the cheaper ones

    The FH3 appears to have been slipped across slowly onto the scene and technically its an original on 45 but the item was never challenged and sells for £250 all day long.

    The truth is. if you want one you have to pay the money. The seller isn't budging now as he knows he doesn't need to.

    And yes 3 different colour Labels with a big time gap on the 3rd doesnt bode well.

    Buyer beware

    But the price hasn't wavered in many years so what is the problem?

    I believe 1A, 1B, relates to the RUN

    ie. 1A is the FIRST run 1B = SECOND run etc. I believe Columbia only used the stampers for a limited numbers of presses to keep the sound quality as "true" as possible.. IE if you check the Okeh 1970's reruns (small 45RPM) labels, the end letters range from D,E,F,G..

    And before anyone asks OKEH 7226 was only issued with a small 45rpm text. If you check the deadwax matrix you'll see the matrix ends 1A, 1B, but maybe C, D,

    It is could also enable a rough calculation of the smaller runs, if we knew how many 45s the stamper was used for before being replaced..

    So stamper A was replaced with stamper B or C etc etc..

    If anyone has any Definate info on this I would be glad to hear about it.

     

    Did this listing ever get completed?

    its strange about the soul bowl links to scratched?

    I'm with you 100%. I deffo don't think it's a 60s recording as posted previously.

    I also have a niggling doubt as to whether it was actually put out as early as 73. The boot clearly shows a 90s font style - can anyone post a supposed "original" for us to 'paw over' with our magnifying glasses? It's one that I was never itnerested in owning but would like to see one, now that the cat is peeking out of the bag so to speak.
