That Nashville stamp is 100% fake. Original stamp is very faint. And smaller. And looks completely different. Original Nashville stamp here

I used to have the reissue. Flipside was a beatiful beat ballad, Entertainers IV - My garden of eden. However it was credited to Kenard. Original has What Did You Gain on both sides, doesn't it?

It was reissued in the 80s using the original master. Original is from 69 or 70. Reissue has different flip.

Got my copy today. Brilliant. Was looking forward to having Tag Tag on vinyl finally. Am a happy chappy!

I thought Ann Nesby must be over 20 years old by now. It isn't. It's just 19 years old. But still sounds to me as fresh as when I heard it first time back then. These days I'm not into new/current/modern soul releases at all. They just don't do it for me. I got into the soulful side of house music in the late 90s/early 2ks. Plenty of amazing tunes were released back then. Come mid 2000's I found less and less tunes to my liking. Eventually I drifted away and focused back on 60s/70s tunes. However, there's one tune from the late 90s, infact 21 years old now that still does it for me. It's just perfect:

Just a short question. Does somebody know where the name "Tangeers" comes from?

I guess it's pretty save to assume that only UK bidder are involved in auctions of UK 45s. Unless it's a UK only tune. Which JC isn't. I never heard of anyone outside UK collecting UK 45s.

Haven't noticed this one before. But the hand is the very same as on US Laurie sleeves. I wonder which one was first?

You really think there will be huge demand for the instrumental? I don't. I'm fairly new to the RSD game. I understand that the Darrell Banks 45 can be ordered by german record stores too. Thought all the RSD releases are only available in the respective country?

Will reply to all messages tonight.

anyone remember Dave McCadden's Soul Galore fanzine? I clearly remember he once reviewed a Mills Brothers record. And not in a derogative way. I forgot the title but something with "road" in it?

A sale is only listed on Discogs when the respective sales fees were paid. So if the entry says it sold for 123.45 it did. No matter what you're prepared to believe.

I just played the audio clip on Manship's site to remind me of the tune and I stick to what I said almost 10 years ago (see above). Awful singer. How this attracts 5K+ bids I just can't get it. Some records are rare for an obvious reason. They're shite..............

Was about to say that I have the very same demo. Until I pulled it out and noticed that my white demo is a completely different design. And run-out groove reads ZTSP-87423-2D instead of 2B. Weird. However I have no doubt yours an original!

Soul source started off as a chat group. Our at least its predecessor was. 96/97ish

I don't buy any new releases. apart from the odd exception like last year's James Hunter Six album. Usually new releases don't excite me at all. At best they're just carbon copies of the golden sound of the 60s and 70s.

died long time ago from what I remember.

I'm not greedy

They all look kosher to me. Or at least the scans do. Do the acetates smell of chemicals? That might be an indication of their age. Originals on Suspension is US. It's not the Motown act.

Since I stopped collecting US 45s I haven't paid any attention to JM auctions. But I do read what's posted on here. I said it before and I say it again: If you believe JM auction descriptions, you also believe Santa is real.
