Otis Redding
His early effort "She's Alright" (issued on the TRANS WORLD and FINER ARTS labels) is superb, and his frantic version of "Shout Bamalama" is another winner.

Subsidiary Labels
One theory is that radio DJs didn't want to or wasn't allowed to play let's say 15 records from the same label during an hour, but if they were on different labels - i.e. VIP/Tamla/Soul/Miracle/Motown/Gordy or Duke/Pecock or Chess/Cadet/Checker - it wouldn't be as obvious by just reading a playlist that the records came from the same sources.

45s @ Ebay -mp3 Mix Added!- New World, Ann Sexton, Curtis
Only about 4-5 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking! :-)

Ernie & Ed
It wasn't issued in the US (at least no copy has ever turned up). Only came out in the UK on JayBoy, and it seems to go for £75-£100+ at the moment.

Jimmy Ricks - Romance In The Dark On Atlantic
Their duet "You're The Boss" on Atlantic is very nice and in a "Fever" type of groove. Seems to be popular with the new breed r&b and popcorn crowds.

Don't Laugh, Soul In Krakow
Does anyone have any suggestions on record stores, bars, clubs, restaurants etc. to visit when in Warsaw? I'll be spending a couple of days there in a few weeks time.

Palos Records - Chicago
I just dug around a bit and came up with: PALOS 1200 - Fenton Robinson - I Believe / Somebody (Loan Me A Dime) PALOS 1201 - Little Oscar - Empty Bottles / Suicide Blues PALOS 1204 - Billy McGregor - I've Got It / We've Been In Love Much Too Long PALOS 1204 - Lee Shot Williams - I'm In Love / The Millionaire PALOS 1207 - Mighty Joe Young - Easier Said Than Done / ? PALOS 1207 - Lee Shot Williams - Mark My Words / ? PALOS 1208 - Josephine Taylor - Depend On Me / ? PALOS 1208 - Ricky Hodges - Save Me / ? PALOS 2021 - Phil Lowman & The Equitables - My Baby's Missing / We Found Our Baby PALOS 6104 - Phil Lowman - Rock Me Til' I Want No More / Saving My Love For You PALOS 312/10733 - Phil Lowman - Rock Me Til' I Want No More / ? Slightly confusing! The Lee Shot Williams releases have got different label layout compared to the Little Oscar, Fenton Robinson, Phil Lowman and Billy McGregor releases. A different label or just messy numbering system...?

Killer Northern 45 - Eddie Ray + The Rollers + M.a.s.o Back In Stock
The sleevenotes to the CD doesn't mention anything like that, but you never know. Would surprise me though.

Ricky Allen
My opinion is 100% opposite. The version on Age is a superb piece of gritty, rocking r&b in my opinion. It's the Tam-Boo version which is dodgy and it sounds like a joke compared to the Age version. Oh well.

Killer Northern 45 - Eddie Ray + The Rollers + M.a.s.o Back In Stock
I agree with everything written above. Nice to see "Wait A Minute" get a 7" release. An absolute monster of a track!
-
Al Mason - good Lovin
I prefer the 7" of Allan Harris. It has got lower volume, but not much when I compared them by recording them to a WAV file one after the other before I flogged my 12" copy. The 12" is much longer and seeing as "Get Ready" starts to get boring after about 3 minutes the 7" suits me fine! Each to their own etc.
-
Biggest Price Drop?
... and effective guitar lines!
-
Truth
I think you are on about two different 45s. "Come Back Home" and "Coming Home" are different records.
-
Are You There - Dawn Penn
7 days ago I sold a stunning M- copy of this on UK Rio for £101 on eBay.
-
James Fountain + John Edwards (bell)
Must say that I'm very surprised to see that James Fountain hasn't sold already. £250 is a very decent price. It surely doesn't come up for sale often these days.
-
Prices For A Mate Needed
£5-ish.
-
Bottom & Co - Gonna Find A True Love
Which had a mis-spelled label as well, the only one I've ever seen. It credits the tune as "Gonna Find A True Life".
-
Info Please
It was issued on a 45 as AWARE 038. I love their "Why Not Start All Over Again" 45 on WESTBOUND. Punchy uptempo funky dancer with gritty vocals.

Records That Sound The Same
The Crown Four, The Chosen Few and The Adventurers (on Blue Rock) were the same group (bar one member or so). The release of "Birth Of A Playboy" as The Crown Four on the LEE JOHN label was the first release of that song, it then appeared on both Maple and Canyon. It's the same recording on all three releases (but with punchier sound quality on Maple and Canyon).
