That's one hell of a fantastic tune. Love it! I'd travel quite far to be able to go to a club that played stuff like this.

I'm up for it. That Krisp tune on Indigo is very nice. Don't have it myself though. Anyone have a copy for sale?

The latest original copy sold on eBay for $51.

"Easier To Love" on the flipside of "We Are Family" is a magnificent midtempo tune in my opinion.

Haven't got an issue copy myself, but the flipside on that is supposed to be "Let's Get Together" according to the Atco label listing. I think that CM just made a typo.

Yes you can...

I have used Gramofonove Zavody (GZ Digital Media) in the Czech Republic in the past when I've done small runs of 45s (200-500 copies) and they've always been easy to work with and reasonably cheap even when doing small runs. Check them out: https://www.gzcd.com/en/index2.html

"Put It In A Magazine" on Highrise? Quite nice and mellow if so.

Not quite sure about the value of the Lee Tillman, but don't think it should be too much. There's another version of this track by The Delacardos available on both Q-City and Atlantic which I think is far superior and the Atlantic issue should only cost you £10-£15-ish. Just heard it here again and can't understand why I don't play it out more. Fantastic stomper. Here's an RA of Delacardos:

The P-Vine copies are apparently bootlegs according to those who know. The only original issue (or not, as it was unissued) is the Turbo LP.

If you can settle for a "reissue"/bootleg... why not make one yourself? The tune is included on an official UK CD compilation, get that or ask someone to rip it for you. Then go to www.vinylcarvers.co.uk and get them to cut a one-sided copy for £15. You'll have it within a week.

Hre's a VERY good site about disco: https://www.jahsonic.com/Disco.html And here's another one: https://www.disco-disco.com/

For those of you interested in the development of DJ-ing culture and the music genres associated with it... there's a book called "Last Night A DJ Saved My Life - The History Of The Disc Jockey" written by Bill Brewster and Frank Broughton that I highly recommend. It's not perfect, but it's a very good book spanning the years between the first turntable and right up until the early 2000s. Should be £7.99 in any good UK book store.

Perhaps: Leon Austin - Steal Away If so... released on King (#6291), produced by James Brown, and it's a cover of the Jimmy Hughes tune (although very different). It was booted a while ago on a King 45, with some Marva Whitney track on the flipside.

Yes it is: Cate Brothers - Where Can We Go / (same) - ASYLUM 45370 Have only seen white demo copies.

I really like the 20th Century version as well. An entirely different approach to the tune and more of a ballad. Plus it's got a nice Hi-ish mid-tempo tune on the b-side entitled "Just Your Fool". You need both 45s.

I have no problems with my International Music Bag copy. It plays perfect.

Here's a link to the copy I sold on eBay a while ago (where label scans and soundfiles can be found): https://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=4736760899

Don't think I've ever seen a vinyl copy of the Innovation II release, only styrene copies. The International Music Bag copies are pressed on vinyl and sound fine to me. Nice record indeed!

Here's the original version by The O'Jays on Imperial. It's much better (understatement of the year).

I was wrong.

Just dug out both my Paula and Contempo 45s of this. The Contempo one is longer and also a slightly different mix.

A copy of this 45 sold for £121 on eBay on the 3rd of January 2005.

Oh dear bloody god!!! You sure jump to conclusions today. I'm not giving anyone a hard time. I AM trying to work out a trade deal with the "£50-guy". Seriously, isn't it YOU who are giving ME a hard time here? Do you think that every non-soul record that is advertised for sale here should be listed like... Liz Verdi - Think It Over - COLUMBIA - £200 * please note, this is not a soul record * Robert John - Raindrops Love And Sunshine - A&M - £40 * please note, this is not a soul record * ...to avoid letting people down? The person that has offered me £50 for Jack Hammer knows FULL WELL what it sounds like and probably couldn't care less whether you think it is a soul record or not. So does the people who are bidding on the current copy up on eBay (£26 now, more than 3 days to go). This is a record that sells because there is a demand for it. I'm not saying that it is a soul tune but whether it is or not is irrelevant. Have I offended you recently? Why the agressive tone of your messages? Was it my smilie that upset you? I didn't mean to.
