The Classmen - Doin' Me Right
It was issued two times on PEARCE with different b-sides and at least 3 different designs, then it appeared on CLASSIC as well with the "second" PEARCE b-side. As far as I know the PEARCE 5818 is the first release and the one on CLASSIC is the last release. Have a look: PEARCE 5818 - Classmen - Doin' Me Right / The Things We Did Last Summer PEARCE 5823 - Classmen - Doin' Me Right / Graduation Goodby CLASSIC 5823 - Classmen - Doin' Me Right / Graduation Goodbye Looks like the label changed name from PEARCE to CLASSIC and kept the same catalogue number for the 5823 release.

Contours - Whole Lotta Woman - Motown 1008
On 7"? Are they all different? Would love to hear the third version if so.

Contours - Whole Lotta Woman - Motown 1008
Beware that there were two different recordings of this released as MOTOWN 1008. They sound very different. There are also some pretty convincing counterfeits/bootlegs of this around as well.

Eli 'paperboy'reed
The album is available as a vinyl LP now: https://search.cartserver.com/search/search...erboy&go=GO! And he's also got two 7"s out: "Take My Love With You" b/w "Am I Just Fooling Myself" and "The Satisfier" b/w "It's Easier" Caught him live in Malmoe, Sweden a couple of months ago and he was awesome! Top stuff!

The Lord Jim and Lefty Wright 45s are on the same BLUE STAR label as Arin and Jimmy. But as far as I know the Johnny Daye and Vogues 45s are on a different BLUE STAR label (from Pennsylvania). The Singing Ambassadors 45s are on what seems like yet another BLUE STAR label (out of Texas). Haven't seen the Billy Storm disc.

NICE! And here it is: Nice to clear up stuff like this. I don't know what the "JW2" on the Jimmy Wonderful label refers to. "Jimmy Wonderful 2" perhaps? Was there another Jimmy Wonderful 45 on BLUE STAR as well? JW2 might be the actual catalogue number. Or perhaps it says "JW1" on the flipside label?

By the way, Arin Demain's "Silent Treatment" is also published by HEMISPHERE MUSIC so it would surprise me if the Jimmy Wonderful and Arin Demain 45s are not from the same label set-up.

Eddie Ray Wait A Minute On Es
It was unissued at the time of recording, but was issued on a 7" (and CD) by the american label Numero Group in 2007. You can still buy the 7" from their homepage for $5. Check this out: https://www.numerogroup.com/catalog_detail.php?uid=00313

Rare Funk-soul 45 Honey & The Bees Love Addict / Dynamite Exploded
Clearly stated as a repress by the seller so the buyer has only got his/herself to blame in case they are disappointed with their purchase in my opinion.

Soul Deep - The History Of Black Popular Music
Wasn't there 6 episodes? I have them here somewhere as AVI-files in case Pete doesn't come up with them.

Southbound Freeway On Swan
Ofcourse it's worth something, it's a very rare 45. Psych collectors are looking for the REAL Southbound Freeway 45 on Swan and it's easier to find one that plays Tony Galla than one that doesn't so put it on eBay with a soundclip of the "Revelations" side and I'm sure you'll make something.

Voices Of E.h. So Rare. 45
I read that but think there's been some misunderstanding. I think the poster who wrote about the warped record getting unwarped was talking about the LP. No 7" release of "So Rare" appears in any Just Sunshine discography that I've seen. Still might exist ofcourse, but I doubt it.

Voices Of East Harlem Boot?
I just did a close comparison between the "Bell Sound" stamp on my original styrene issue copy and the photos of the bootleg/second issue that has been posted above. The stamps are VERY similar but they are different and both records can not have been pressed from the same stampers. For example: look at how the "line" in the letter "B" leans differently in each of the scans below.

Venicia Wilson - This Time I'm Loving You
It started to appear on Ian Levine's playlists/articles in mid-2001, so was most likely pressed in 2000 or 2001. Here is what Ian Levine wrote about the record in the same Togetherness Magazine "Top 25 Rarities" article from 2001 that also featured the quote about Venicia Wilson that I posted above: 3 - DAVID RHODES - HUNG UP IN MID-AIR - CHI-CITY - CHC 1001 Very rare Chicago Mecca classic produced by Danny Leake, I had a box of 25 of these in my hands last year, and wish I'd kept some back. Never has a record so shot up in demand as this soulful Seventies gem, which was technically never even released.

Isley Bros - Summer Breeze
I think it's superb. Much better than the Ace Spectrum version.
