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

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.

Sorry, don't have a copy of either for sale, but the original version is by Nova's Nine, issued on ABC. The tune is written by Bob Mann who was a member of that group.

The 4:51 long COLUMBIA release of Philly Devotions "I Just Can't Say Goodbye" was mixed by Tom Moulton and it is a better/punchier (and longer) mix than the issue on DON DE.

Only 1-2 hours to go on these auctions now: https://shop.ebay.com/pushkings/m.html Thanks for looking!

Don't know if it's the same guy, but there's a Tony Turner that is supposed to be David Ruffin's godson and apparently also workded as a Motown road manager. Interview with him: https://www.classicba...rInterview.html He's also written some books about The Temptations and The Supremes: https://www.amazon.co...t_athr_dp_pel_1

That might explain why I've never been able to find that 45 (as by Angela Davis)!
