What interesting vinyl do you have ?
Never heard of that Pizza Box release before. Looks great! Jack White's Third Man Records are experimenting with all sorts of vinyl gimmicks. Like, LP in clear vinyl with liquid inside.

Is this your scan? Would like to have a better quality one to print out and put it into the sleeve of my copy.

Charles Johnson never had a love
How I wish there was an original 12" of it. Not the usual disco mix, but simply a complete recording including what happened after the ad-lib part of the 7" mix. As good as the song is, the last 30 odd seconds take it to a higher level. In my opinion. Anyone access to the Alston/T.K. archive?

Bobby Smith
Yes, I have an addition. Whoever edited the title of this topic: It's Bobbie Smith and not Bobby Smith.

Unbelievable
Are Do you lot ever get tired of the old original vs boot dj'ing discussion? I wish there was a huge *yawn* emoticon available.

Instrumentals of 1974
I love the claim on the album sleeve "Kung Fu Fighting and other great love songs". Never knew Kung Fu was about love....

Robert Thomas On Venture
Well, if you had done a bit of research yourself you would have come up with the following: Discogs says: MatrixDetails VINYL: V-004109-A released 1968 Monarch Release Date table says: ∆ 71362 = May 1968 What you have is an east coast and a west coast press. Both legit. Case closed 👍

What, you’ve never heard this?!!!
Know where you're coming from. Like a rich red wine it's good to put it aside for a few years. Then dig it and it blows you away. And in case you own a copy and think of selling it, don't. Flip it over for a tremendous beat ballad:

Peps - Love looks good/Speak yr peace - MW 689 mix - value
Thanks for your feedback guys, much appreciated. @BabyBoyAndMyLass: You posted a wrong vid, I replied, then you deleted your post. Putting my reply out of any context. Why?

Peps - Love looks good/Speak yr peace - MW 689 mix - value
Then why post a vid of the other one? Going by the label shown in the vid this is the MW 689 mix: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VT-YNaq-m0w

Peps - Love looks good/Speak yr peace - MW 689 mix - value
I got a copy of Peps - My love looks good on you/Speak your peace - D-Town 1065 with the rarer MW 689 mix of both sides. VG condition. Any idea of value? Thanks!

Hey Girl on Arlen
Why should they have had any sales in Germany? Probe/ABC issued it over here in 71 to tie in with the UK reissue. And it didn't sell well. Obviously, because it's a boring record.
-
Caston & Majors
The record itself is just a demo of the pretty common german release. German 70s Tamla-Motown demos usually came in the respective picture sleeve. The sleeve you have is an in-house one. Not meant to be distributed. Probably EMI archive copy.

Billy Larkin/ Delegates - Pigmy Aura
Plenty of copies on Discogs. Try your luck there.

Cecil Washington - Prophonics
I know you guys are talking more about the record than the recording. But anyway, I think there was a thread about the background of this record quite a few years back. Wasn't it Cecil Washington himself who posted in it? From what I recall he was/is a reverend. Band was actually Soul Inc (of My Proposal fame). Am I right or am I mixing up things?

Bobby Smith
Bobbie was played a lot in Germany in the late 90s. And I heard it again every now and then recently in Munich.

Tojo - Broken Hearted Lover
Great article. I find Tojos background more fascinating like it was than some famous name moonlightning.

New Cordial 45 - Ruby & The Mudflaps - Interview
Great interview. Mel Canady is also active in the local blues club scene here in Munich. I think I saw him live many many years ago but never made the connection to Ruby & Mudflaps back then.
