I have two 45s by The Dynamic "O" on Lightning but can't find any information on these. Any of you know these? And more importantly, do you know who he was and when they were released? Any and all info appreciated.

I've been buying all sorts of cheapies lately.

One of the joys of playing your records at home with no audience is that the correct sequence is whatever feels right in your own head at that exact moment. I play records at home regularly. When I'm lazy I'll play them on the small stereo, or I'll pick up a box and walk over to the other room and play them loudly on the big speakers.

It's a Holland-Dozier 45 on Invictus. This one: https://www.discogs.com/Holland-Dozier-Im-Gonna-Hijack-Ya-Kidnap-Ya-Take-What-I-Want/release/4731604

There's a decent profile on discogs: https://www.discogs.com/artist/932640-James-L-Jones Isn't this handyman? 45cat says it is: https://www.45cat.com/artist/jimmy-jones

Yes we do. Everything declared at more than 350 NOK inc. shipping gets hit with VAT in Norway. (Currently 350 NOK is £29.)

Isn't the sales tax only applied for some states, not all? I've noticed several sellers have a small note about tax for certain states. It's a bit odd. Maybe he was just overworked in the holiday season and charged tax without thinking about if he should or not.

It does. Have you given him a US address as shipping address?

Still looking.

If you need more info on runouts and what they mean there's a huge thread on the discogs forums where all info is collected.

Do you have one for sale? Send me a PM.

The 321 numbers aren't the same. The full cat. numbers are TC 321 and 70-321. And then there was the gospel album with cat. no. TC 3000. There was also Better World BW 4356 - Southern Trumpets. All the labels are on discogs with scans. https://www.discogs.com/label/242247-Ultra-City https://www.discogs.com/label/194190-Tri-City-2 https://www.discogs.com/label/531850-Moonville-USA https://www.discogs.com/label/119482-Better-World

If you dare to venture into the early 80s there's Breakaway with Paul Garrison on Three Stars.

Oh well. At least it's nice to complete the label run

The best way around it is to add a shipping policy. I've recently added shipping prices for larger quantities and have to say it really did make a difference. And it saves time not having to calculate shipping for each order since discogs instantly sends out automated invoices for my orders.

Cool fast soul tune. Soundfile on one of these mixes: https://shing-a-ling.blogspot.no/ I'd love to know who The Dynamic "O" was. I don't think the songwriter is who it insinuates either.

I recently bought Herman Jackson "Danger Zone" on Anvick and can't find any info other than that it's one of those Greenville related 45's. Any of you have any info? Other releases? Who's Herman Jackson? Is there a vocal version? And anything/everything else...

The "other forum" died out after a short while if I remember correctly. Wasn't it called sixties detroit or something?

Not really, but he uses a different grading scale than you. Meaning that in your scale it would be comparable to Ex.

I used to have parts of my collection as labels in their own boxes, but as they've been completed or abandonded I've merged them with the main collection so now everything is alphabetical. Except the gospel records from the Designer label. Those are separated from the rest. There's one here: https://dailywardrum.blogspot.no/2012/01/interview-with-rob-klein.html

The other option was using a custom label. Like Style Wootens Designer imprint: Google books has this extensive list of U.S. studios from 1972. Including equipment, opening hours and rates: https://books.google.no/books?id=qkUEAAAAMBAJ&pg=RA1-PA50&dq=%22style+wooten%22&hl=no&sa=X&ei=ECYZVYyRM5bmas30gJgD&ved=0CE4Q6AEwBw#v=onepage&q=%22style%20wooten%22&f=false Preview of Detroit studios:

There's a reference to his death here: https://www.sirshambling.com/artists_2012/S/frankie_seay/index.php Maybe he (John Ridley) knows a reliable source.

Some of the best packages to arrive are the thick ones.

Today's delivery.
