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

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".

According to Manship: "styrene original with ZTSC scratched in matrix, vinyl copies with moulded over labels are bootlegs!"

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.

Lovely tune there.

MANIC!!! One of those 45s I've always have wanted to own but haven't bought... anyone got an original copy for sale? PM me please if so.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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...

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

Just checked my archived AdvancedNorthernSoul mailing list mail... and there it is... a post from August 16, 2001 and a link to a very lazy faked label scan of the supposed-to-exist Magnificent Men 45. A couple of things gives it away: 1) the tune is actually written by Ronnie Douglas 2) the orchestra is actually arranged and conducted by Horace Ott and Sonny Sanders 3) a Capitol number in the 3200-series would date it to either 1955 or 1971 (they started to re-use their catalogue numbers!) 4) there are two other known 45s with the catalogue number 3224. Here's the labelscan:

Here you go: https://www.shingaling.com/BadHabits-IDontWantToDiscussIt.mp3 It's for sale by the way if anyone needs it. £15 including shipping. Absolutely love Little Richard's version, one of my all-time faves. Lots of nice tunes by him from that same time... "I Need Love", "Get Down With It", "Land Of A Thousand Dances"... total mayhem. And then slightly later on Brunswick... love his "Try Some Of Mine", top funky stuff.

About 10-11 hours left on these auctions now. Thanks for looking!

Did the (in my opinion superior) flipside get any plays ("Can't Shake The Feeling") or was that more of a Garage/Loft kinda thing? Love that tune.

"I played it first", "no I did", "hell no, I did", "give me credit", "no give ME credit"...
