That's what I thought as well, but check out what I found in my record collection just a couple of hours ago: TOO many records!!!

Four Tops Version Of ''helpless''
Sorting out some stuff to put up on eBay and was left scratching my head whether the Four Tops version of Kim Weston's "Helpless" was released on a 45 anywhere in the world except on the rare picture sleeved french "Standning In The Shadows Of Love" 7" EP? Can't find any mention of a US or UK release.

Northern Soul From New Orleenz?
One of the best tunes ever recorded in my opinion. Can pick just about anything from Huey Piano Smith's catalogue of recordings and it's gonna be a winner. Love his "Little Liza Jane" as well.

A Case Of Time,real Or Not,be Nice To Know
It might very well look good, but the point is that it's a bootleg.

A Case Of Time,real Or Not,be Nice To Know
Here's a scan of the white label styrene copy, which I guess is the same one mentioned by Soul-Slider above. It's definitely a bootleg:

Unknown {to Me} Uptempo Fem Rarity
Yvonne Fair "Say Yeah Yeah" on DADE perhaps? R&B-edged funk tune. Have a listen: https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Yvonne_Fair...h_Yeah_Yeah.ram

Neal Kimble On Tangerine
Inflated indeed. $500-$700!!! That's outrageous for this 45 and must be only due to current hype. The most recent copy on ebay, which ended at $299 and NO BIDS was not shagged, it was VG+ and "plays great with full fidelity".

A Case Of Time,real Or Not,be Nice To Know
According to Manship: "styrene original with ZTSC scratched in matrix, vinyl copies with moulded over labels are bootlegs!"
-
A Case Of Time,real Or Not,be Nice To Know
It's the flip to "Manifesto" by Case Of Tyme. "Some Call It Love". Nice one. did you get an original for £8? could take one myself at that price if anyone's selling.

Modern Soul - Where Did The Term Come From?
If anyone happens to have a copy for sale of: Cecil Lyde's "I'll make it on my own" 45 on Alwest, please PM me.

Johnson Family Plus Others
Now that's what I call a decently priced superb tune. Two slightly different versions were released though with different catalogue numbers. They are very similar to eachother and both good.

Barrett Strong - I Better Run
The tunes on his Tollie 45 is some of the weakest material he ever recorded in my opinion. From his earlier stuff I really rate "Misery" on Tamla. https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Barrett_Strong_-_Misery.ram I also like "Is It True" on Capitol. https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Barrett_Str..._Is_It_True.ram

Modern Soul - Where Did The Term Come From?
Found myself a free copy of this LP just the other week and hardly even played it through, but when I finally did and got to this track the first thing that went through my mind was... "This is so much 'northern-modern' that it's ridiculous". Swirling strings, strong vocals, skipping beat in a Prince Phillip Mitchell "I'm So Happy" styleee. It certainly has got scene potential. But with that sleeve and being LP-only...

Yes it is impossible.

Liz Lands
You're welcome. I'm glad I could help you out. Yes, same arrangement (but not the same recording) as the Marv Johnson version which also was recorded at Hitsville.
-
Liz Lands
It's credited to Liz Lands. Apparently there are 12-14 unreleased Motown recordings by Liz Lands still in the can. I've attached a picture of her below as well. Have you heard "Don't Shut Me Out" on One-Derful? I think it's very nice.
-
The Magnificent Men
Yes, that one is a good stomping version as well. It utilises an entirely different Willie Mitchell produced backing track. Top tune! But the Buddy Lamp version slays the rest of them in my opinion.
-
Liz Lands
So it's not the version released in 1963 as the b-side of Gordy 7026 you're after? If it is, I have it and can help you out.
-
The Magnificent Men
I agree, "How Are you Fixed For Love" is an absolute monster of a tune!!! His version of Danny White's "Cracked Up Over You" which can be found on the flipside is fab as well. The Wheelsville 45 in my avatar is Buddy Lamp's "Save Your Love", one of my all-time Detroit favourites. It has got the same backing track as Lee Rogers "Sock Some Love Power To Me" but with different lyrics and much grittier vocals.

The Magnificent Men
Nah... well... I keep pretty much every e-mail I recieve or send. Have been doing that since I first got internet in 1995 or so, no worry really, it just builds and builds. Had a hard drive crash in 1999 so lost most of my e-mails prior to that. It's actually quite fun to go back and read. Especially those ANS posts...

Alvin Robinson
No, not all of his material. At least not on any official LP or CD.
