Stardust is a bootleg label so you might get yourself a carver, Tempests one side, Willie Kendricks the other. Saves you money.

I know it's been discussed before. But I seriously doubt that the no-address-press is a bootleg. It looks just too good for a pressing (e.g. sharp print definition, two colour print on label). Does anyone know did the bootleg and when?

First audio clip sounds like a publisher's demo to me. 2nd clip is definitely Doug Banks singing over the demo backing.

Leo Wright, nice surprise. Didn't know there was another version of this song. I only knew the United Four c/up one (acetate only). United Four was first played by Richard Searling wasn't it? Gasoline Powered Clock, it's the (daft) vocal side on the podcast. Wasn't it the instrumental side that got played?

Probably.

Yes.

The JJ Jackson Prelude label was west coast (L.A.?) based, same as Mac Staten "There she goes".

Could be correct.

Not "pretty little girl" by any chance? Done by Gene Chandler and George Smith. Both early 60s midtempo tho both don't really have a latin beat.

That's what I love about Soul Source. Someone mentions a record you haven't played for decades, you dig it out, give it a spin and you suddenly realize you never noticed how good it really is. On-topic: Never seen or heard of a "king of the mountain" 45 but somehow I have a feeling that "tomorrow" was on a french or swedish scepter EP/45? (am probably wrong tho)

This isn't even Popcorn, just Pop.

It's on sale. https://www.kingdomcomeforever.com/

Really? I think it's fantastic, gets better and better with each play.

Seconded. Anyone knows where it was recorded?

List updated. Have yourself some quality bargains ....

And another one, great group sound tho not really doo-wop and/or early soul IMO

And the flipside. Value for money double-sider....

Dynamics - I wanna know. Another goodie for this thread isn't it?

How about this one? Pheasants on Throne. Alltime fave of mine ever since I heard it c/up on a tape almost 20 years ago.

Has the first issue a good sound quality? 2nd press is rather low-fi from what I remember...
