What an absolute MONSTER of a tune! Their "Be Prepared" 45 on Castle is also superb.

New World We're Gonna Make It Polydor 45
About 343 of the 350 people who went absolutely berzerk when the intro came out of the speakers two weeks ago at a soul club here in my hometown had no idea about how much this record is selling for. It's a good dance tune and sounds great out loud. Reminds me a bit about a weaker "Move On Up" (mostly due to the slightly off-beat singing), but that's a hard tune to top. I like it. Wouldn't pay going rate for a copy though...

Gospel Soul Sounds
If You Believe Your God Is Dead (Try Mine) - swan silvertones - hob is gospel 13850 refosoul I know that a lot of people have problems with lyrics mentioning "god", but give this one a try! It's an absolutely devastating piece of uptempo soul music.

Records Pressed With Wrong Title Etc
These two from March 1965 were two of them: SOUL 35010 - Hit Pack - Never Say No To Your Baby / Let's Dance SOUL 35011 - Freeman Brothers - My Baby / Beautiful Brown Eyes Seems too much of a coincidence to me that The Freeman Brothers also released a 45 on Mala at about the same time... what was the deal there? Does anyone have the Vol. 5 of the "Complete Motown Singles" box-set and can check out what the booklet says?

Mp3 Wanted - The Legends?
I don't "get" the dancefloor appeal of that "Fear Not" tune. The rhythm is seriously "off", the drums are buried way down deep in the mix and it has got a very wishy-washy sound quality in my opinion. It's not a bad tune, just saying that it's very much a living room tune in my opinion and everytime I've heard it played in a club setting (at least 10+ times) it has pretty much emptied the floor.

Walas 1 Logo Any Information
Flip that Nick Allen record over for a slightly unusual (and re-titled!) version of Lee Moses LP-only cut "What You Don't Want Me To Be".

I agree. The Cre-Shendos version might be rare, but it sounds extremely weak compared to the Nate Holmes version in my opinion.

Not true. Have you ever TRIED finding a copy of "Your Number 1". An original copy that is, not the 70s styrene reissue. I have in the past easily sold "Your Number 1" for £100 and that's cheap in my opinion. I know people who have sold it for £150+. It's very hard to find, and superb as well. There has only been one copy (demo) on eBay during the last year. The year before that, there was also only one copy (demo).- Rarer Issues & Demo's
