That's a rare variation. Looks like a Monarch pressed (vinyl?) west coast variant. Does it have a delta matrix number in the run-out grooves?

OK, I've never seen one on vinyl. If anyone has got an image of it, please post it.

No, it's styrene.

There's a staggering amount of good stuff from New Orleans, it's hard to even know where to start.

Regarding the "Steve Charles And The Statics" credit on the acetate, there are two mentions of that group in these two Frederick, Maryland newspapers from July 15, 1966 and July 23, 1966. If anyone of you has got a subscription to newspapers.com (I don't) you'll be able to retrieve the info: https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/7674216/ https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/7681268/

The 45 on Ninandy is from 1968. The 45 on Hem is from 1966 (both songs copyrighted in October '66.). The 45 on Hubba Hubba is noted as being from 1965 in discographies, certainly earlier than 1968 in any case.

O'Kaysions "Soul Clap" and The Trends "Soul Clap" are versions of the same tune, but they are not the same recording. It's not an instrumental.

A new SOUL THING show just went up on Mixcloud! 60 minutes of me playing soul/r&b/funk 45's from my personal collection. Have a listen!

If it was released in 1967, it wasn't on Moira. The first release on Moira, which is FIVE releases ahead of "Magic Corner", was released/mastered sometime between January and June of 1968. Most discographies say April 1968. The release on Moira just ahead of "Magic Corner", #105, was released in April 1969.

Would be extremely surprised if this doesn't go $10000+. If it can be danced to it is beside the point. It's just an incredible, attitude packed piece of powerful music.

I'd say that the visual condition of a record this rare is almost entirely irrelevant as long as it plays fine. And this one does. Absolute monster of a tune.

The artist/title info turns up when you listen to it. The second track is either "Time Will Tell" by Eddie Holman" or "Lucky Fellow" by Maurice Jackson.
