Was just digging through some stuff for future eBaying and came across this nice white demo. Different tunes on each side, and a Weldon McDougal sticker!

For sure not the "best" version, but it's not THAT bad. I mean, the tune is quite "wedding reception" to begin with. It's almost as if one would expect that you have something against Hall (& Oates)...

It should perhaps once again be noted that there are TWO different versions of this tune released on 45. Exact same label design, but different catalogue numbers. One has got the sound effects which is also on the 12", the other one hasn't got the sound effects. The "non-sound effects" 45 seems to be very, very rare. The ususal one "should" be £10-£30 though.

It's an eBay thing. Soundclip, properly listed and promoted. It usually goes for £15-£30 on eBay and from UK sellers. The one which just went for £100+ is not even the "rarer" non-sound effects version, it's the "usual" one.

Just posted it in the Media Source section: /index.php?showtopic=36120 Enjoy.

One of the best deep soul tunes ever in my opinion.

Eh... would just post a link to where you can download the MP3-file from on my server... it wouldn't impact how long it takes to open the actual SoulSource thread... or am i missing something?

I'll give you £80 for Ivan Neville. A fair few copies gone for about $150 on eBay.

It's UK-only on Jay Boy. Flipside is nice as well. Did you hear it on that 78-minute mix of mine which I posted on the Funk Forum? Perhaps should post up the mix here as well? Anyone interested?

Yep, same guy. Those Pzazz releases were his last recordings. "Wild Is The Night", nice pounding, slightly left-field uptempo dancer. The b-side, "New Orleans And A Rusty Old Horn" is one of my all-time favourite ballads (also cut in an inferior version by Sonny Knight on Aura). A bloody hard 45 to locate. Just dug it out and noticed that I have two copies of it, not sure that I want to sell it though. By the way, Louis Jordan's entire Pzazz LP is quite nice as well.

The Style Council version is in my opinion in an entirely different league and far, far superior. And I'm no big Paul Weller fan.

Most copies on eBay seems to sell for £125-£175.

The EXTENSIVE liner notes to the two volume "Mirwood Story" CDs on Kent/ACE goes a long way trying to sort out this mess. Really informative liner notes and worth the price alone.

It's a track by 100 Proof (Aged In Soul), issued on HOT WAX 7211 as "Since You've Been Gone".

Sorry, don't have any further info... but looking a bit like these, I guess:

I love the previously unreleased David Ruffin version of this and have been hammering it whenever I've been able to since it was released some 8 years or so ago. It's a fantastic track.

OK. Old thread reactivation time. I recently tracked down a copy of the 1932 mix of "How Can I Tell Her". Here's a sound clip for those of you who want to hear it. Not as good or punchy as the 1879 mix in my opinion, but without the sound effects...

The Jacksons "Blues Away" on Epic/PIR and Michael Jackson's "We're Almost There" on MOTOWN surely must've had plays on the modern scene. They're both absolutely superb steppers.

There you go. I did think that Stanewall was a bit of a strange name. I asked a person who had a copy and he insisted that his copy read "Cappy & Stanewall". Poor eye sight perhaps! Wouldn't mind a copy of the 45.

No, it's not unknown, but few people seems to know about it. I've been looking for a copy for a while and let me know if you want to sell yours or if you find another. I think "Bad News" is a good tune. By the way, shouldn't it be Cappy & StAnewall?

WHAT A SUPERB TUNE! Decently priced as well, not their easiest Tamla 45 to find. https://www.soulclub.org/stream/The_Isley_B..._I_Love_You.ram

I'd like it ALL to be released, really. Either as seperate CDs or in a big box of CDs. Release all unreleased material. Don't be skint, the demand for this stuff will probably be slim in 25-30 years time. At LEAST release a complete Jimmy Hughes 2CD compilation, all of the Dan Penn recordings including the 10 unreleased sides, the 5 unreleased Art Freeman recordings, the 2 unreleased James Barnett tunes (one of which is a version of "It Tears Me Up"!), plus all the 30-ish unreleased tunes by Linda Carr, Spooner's Crowd, Terry Woodford, Del-Rays, Entertainers etc. That would be nice.

First white artist on Motown (in fact Tamla) was Nick & The Jaguars from August 1959. They were not signed to the label, but did a one-off 45. Great pounding surf instrumental backed with a rocker.
