Edwin Starr - I Just Wanted To Cry
Yes, last and by far rarest of the 4 Motown 45 sung in german.

Wally Coco - Message To Society
Seconded. Emperors new clothes kind of song, fits in with all that funk crap played these days. Will be gone and forgotten in a few years.

Edwin Starr - I Just Wanted To Cry
No, the most expensive German Motown 45 is Temptations "Mein Girl" (aka my Girl) @200/250 Agree with you, rarely turns up these days. I guess many copies that were in circulation are now hoovered up and tucked away in Northern Soul collections. Yes, german-only 45.

Anyone Know This....?
No, not really. Or as my 3 year old daughter would say: :D:lol:

If the likes of Butch, Soul Sam, Ginger, etc. are reading this, I'm willing to let my copy go for a nice offer/trade (seriously!)

Dean Jones / Women Ska Da La De Da
You can pick up the album on the bay for less than $10 if you search a bit.

Two People - Stop Leave My Heart Alone
can upload it once RefoSoul is back and running if anybody's still interested? Bought the album simply out of curiosity about the Two People track and have to say, doesn't sound like an alt take to me. More like one of those 'fake stereo' mixes you can find on many french compilations from the 1960s. I'd be a bit disappointed if it wasn't for the stand out deep soul tracks on side 2

Ed & Ernie - Indication - Jayboy?
Just played it on RefoSoul, instant winner to me! Sounds like a Carolina beach scene track to me and in parts reminds me of Soul Inc. - My proposal. Wish I had known it earlier when copies were cheap.

Anyone Know This....?
Here's the report: When I played it at our local do* last thursday the dancefloor thinned out a bit but most kept on dancing. Still don't think it's a brilliant tune. it's ok but thast's just about it IMHO. :wub::wub: (NB: please ignore all these smilies, my 3 year old daughter wanted me to included them all in my post) * see for complete playlist

Can We Have A Wheel Thread? I'd Like To Hear What Was Played
Yes it was, 1967.
-
Anyone Know This....?
Will give it a spin at our do this coming thursday and report back. Don't know what I was thinking of when I said the whole songs sounds like Jackie Wilson ca 66/67. Vocally yes, BH sounds a bit like JW if by purpose I don't know but that's just where any similarity ends IMO.
-
Anyone Know This....?
Was wondering, what is the common opinion about it now? Is it really a mispress? Have any other copies surfaced from anywhere else after or prior to the 7/8 copies on Ebay last month? Received my copy two days ago and have to say I still haven't made up my mind whether I like it or not. Intro reminds me of the Pied-Piper stuff on RCA and the whole songs sounds quite like Jackie Wilson ca. 66/67.

R & B Re-Issues On The Bay
It's not that once you've exceeded the threshold Ebay is going to change your account from private to business seller. But there are different terms for private and business seller. E.g. you can be liable for an item lost in the post as a private seller, even if that term only applies to business sellers.
-
R & B Re-Issues On The Bay
Don't know if that helps as it's only valid to german Ebay accounts, but if you exceed a certain number of sold items over a certain period of time, Ebay Germany considers you to be a business seller even if you're registered as a private seller. is there anything similar with Ebay UK?

Rare ? Star Trek Soul
Nice one, picture reminds me of the Playboy centerfold she once did (not that I saw it myself, been told about it *cough*) I know she did a 45 on Epic that fetches quite some money. More in a Popcorn/Mod thing I recall...

Clampdown On Piracy – Three Separate Prosecutions
Isn't it that as long as it's a one-off and for your own home listening pleasure you're entitled to cut a carver of a track you don't own the rights for? And you're not allowed to sell it on?

Yes, "I won't play Popcorn at a Soul do again" written 100 times on the lid of my DJ box...- Records That Made You Gobsmacked

Fantastic production...- Aint Nothing But A House Party
Were there any other releases on Party Time apart from Houseparty and Four Perfections? And can somebody confirm that Showstoppers and Four Perfections were one and the same group? Would like to have a Party Time demo of Houseparty to sit next to my Four Perfections demo Anyone?- Indie Soul Sale: Ortheia Barnes - Noteworthy 12"
