Sorry, can't help you with any info about this LP, but those are some very primitive recordings! That "It's All Over" tune (number 04) as well as track 05 are superb. Just wish the recording was a bit better. Is there any info at all on the labels? Address, BMI/ASCAP info, songwriters etc? I've cleaned up the soundfiles a bit, put them in mono and given them more punch, will add them to refosoul in a minute.

ORIGINAL: LEGAL RE-ISSUE: BOOTLEG:

Here's Simon & Garfunkel's version: And while I'm at it... here's Ola & The Janglers version as well...only issued on a flexi 7" in Sweden (thankfully, some might say... ):

Coasters - Down In Mexico - ATCO 6064 Ray Sharpe - Help Me (Get The Feeling) - ATCO 6402 Levon And The Hawks - He Don't Love You - ATCO 6383 High Keys - Que Sera Sera - ATCO 6268 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kd2j3-gqHds Some oddball stuff below that you'd be hard pressed to consider soul, but these are some really good 45s on ATCO in my opinion: Brian Auger - Black Cat - ATCO 6611 (not issued on 45 in the UK) Squires - Going All The Way - ATCO 6442 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6GDxi6csi9g

lenny o'henry - across the street

If you mean Tommy Good (of "Baby i Miss You" fame), then he was pretty late in the game as well. That 45 is from 1964.

The Lewis Sisters 45s are from 1965.

THE CONTORS... Absolutely useless bootleggers!

£3-£5.

Just found a photo of the Mello Souls 45 on an italian web site: https://soulconnection.too.it/ https://digilander.li...kenny/kenny.htm

Brilliant version in my opinion.

Plus the re-issue has got "RABBIT FACTORY INC." on the right side of the label (instead of "KAT 276755B") so pretty easy to spot. ORIGINAL on the left side and RE-ISSUE on the right side below:

Yes, the scan of the blue label 45 is the 70s bootleg which David Flynn mentioned above.

And here it is (scan taken from Manship's guide):

That's a seriously good and rare 45. I've never seen another copy apart from the one I have (and included in the November 2007 mix that you mentioned).

I think Marva Whitney's version is superb:

The original release was on CHARLIE as Michael's Mystics. It was later picked up by METROMEDIA and issued as by The Mystics.
