  1. the track Pete mentions is just a short cut of the vocal version. The full 2+ min version is unissued as far as I know.
  2. I understand the Canadian Right On label is not connected to the UK label. Maybe whoever was behind the Canadian one thought label name and label design are quite nice and used them for their own set up. Sammy Gaha was based in France when he recorded "Thank you Thank you" and it first came out in France.

  4. went through a box of 100's of audio tapes in the attic the other. To my surprise I found the tape I did back in 1995 at John's house. Here's the track listing. Pure allnighter material. Even 25 years later. little ann - lean lanky daddy - ric tic acetate ruby andrews - wonderful nite - zodiac stemmons express - woman love thief - karma al gardner - i'll get along - lu-pine baby huey - just being careful - usa september jones - i'm coming home - kapp september jones - no more love - kapp jimmy & entertainers - new girl - toddlin' town metros - i'll never forget you - rca lp holly maxwell - only when you're lonely - constellation seminoles - cheating heart - bell acetate (alt take from what i remember) monique - i wouldn't believe - maurci mb's - another day - b-jet natural four - hangin' on to a lie - boola-boola archie bell - a thousand wonders - atlantic (spain) reggie soul - my world of ecstasy - capri bobby williams - only got myself to blame - sureshot ascots - anytime - mir-a-don ascots - another day - mir-a-don tommy dodson - one day love - uptown showmen - a little bit of your love - joker 3 del chontays - baby i need you - steeltown tony amaro - runnin around - loma rocky gil - it's not the end - tear drop otis lee - hard row to hoe - quaint Mind, randomly picked!
  5. I'm 100% sure it's Don Gardner.
  6. Sure a marmite record. I love it. Even though I despise today's Northern 45 prices I fully understand if this copy fetches loads.
  7. The Kerston reissue is a bootleg.
  8. Flipside of Sonny Parker is "what can I do". A truly wonderful beat ballad and a US low rider classic. That might be the reason for the price? It's not a record that turns up every day.....
  9. Maxine Brown-Let me give you my lovin-Wand 177 quid! Is there something I might have missed?
  10. I wonder who's the target audience for these compilations?
  11. They posted it eventually on April 30. And the records arrived safe and sound here in Germany on May 08. Don't think I ever had a 'signed for' parcel from the US delivered as fast as this time.
  12. Three very hard to find german Northern 45s: THE LOVELLES - HERE COME THE HEARTACHES/I WONDER WHY - RS (w/ PS!) NM £75 SOLD Fantastic record. Both sides solid uptempo Northern in glorious true stereo. Only way to get "Wonder why" on 45. Check the sound clip. In original sleeve (VG++) EBONEY KEYES - IF YOU KNEW - PYE (w/ PS) EX £20 £15 Neat UK produced Northern soul oldie. Still love it. Record plays great but has tiny "x" on "sitting in a ring" side. Sleeve bit worn and small "x" on front, hence VG+ grading THE SPINNERS - I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU - TAMLA-MOTOWN VG++ £30 £20 Oh so rare. Only the second copy I ever had. Very small and faint wol. Vinyl looks VG++ but plays EX hence grading. Wasn't released with a picture sleeve so comes in a plain white paper sleeve. ***************************************************************** P&P in Europe £5, outside Europe £9.

  13. "standing on solid ground" - horrible record. what a synthetic backing. weak vocals. don't know about David Rhodes being a tailor-made but I really like it. One that is 100% tailor-made which I really like is Four Vandals - Wrong side of town. even though backing sounds pretty synthetic to me the melody, the lyrics, the vocals really make up for that. Hats off to Ian Levine for this one, well done!
  14. mental. freddie houston 300max IMO
  15. As Arthur Greensalde was involved, it's an UK production isn' it?
  16. Kent used to get many of their LPs pressed at a german pressing plant from (I guess) mid 80s onwards. That's why it says "made in germany" on your info sheet. However it's still an UK release.
  17. can anyone help please? artist and label needed of an obscure female cover version of Sly Stone's "Everyday people" - old Rob Mariott spin I believe. At least I recall I had it on a RM tape which I have misplaced unfortunately. cheers benji
  18. Bought a few records from the US end of march. before I paid for them I asked seller if shipping to Germany is ok. They said yes. Paid immediately. Couple of days ago I asked for a tracking ID. They told me they haven't send it yet because their local PO said it's too risky to send abroad. 😡 Now I have to sit and wait.....
  19. Wanted to keep collection complete: 6t's 40th Anniversary 45 from 2019 Carolyn Crawford/Mickey Stevenson Reasonable price paid. Please PM. Thanks! Benji
