Doris Willingham on Jay Boy.
Anyone noticed the fault in the recording of You Can't Do That? Right after the intro, about 0:10 into the song the recording seems to slow down for a second. Like a warped record. I had a few copies of the german Jayboy release and they were all like that. So I guess the fault was in the actual master tape? See for yourself, at 00:12 of the YT vid:

J Manship Auction Results 25/10/2017
A-side shite as a Reggae record and even worse as a soul record. B-side is ok though. Certainly not worth the price it went for. According to Discogs this isn't Ken Parker but infact Slim Smith on A-side and Alton Ellis on B-side. Don't know how true that is but it's definitely too different artists on both sides.

Eddie Garrigan - Fontana
just some trivia: IWIW was also done by "The Partnership". German only release from the late 60s on an indie label called "Victoria". I wish I was saying it's a great cover. It isn't. It's awful.

Help with a title for this r&b tune
Pathetic behaviour. Either keep the details secret (and say you do) or pass on all the information. But being sketchy about the details is just poor.

Empires - You're on top girl
Sorry for delay. Reply got stuck in my spam filter: "Benji, We appreciate your interest. We obtained these from someone who had them custom made for his own collection. After reviewing some of them, there are some quality issues with playback. We have removed them from sale pending further investigation. Thanks and have a wonderful day, John"

Empires - You're on top girl
I did something that I guess most of you would never think of: I emailed Craig Moerer stuff and asked for more details about the Empires repro. Of course I won't share the reply

Al De Lory - Right On - German Capitol
Most collectors want it either on US or UK. So the german issue isn't worth a lot. Even though it's not that easy to find. I'd say 8-10 quid.

Bill Bush - I'm waiting - Whats the story
I just looked up the Discogs entry. It says "UK Northern Soul reissue" but, looking at the label scans, it should rather say "UK Northern soul bootleg"

price please
The speedy lyric problem (nice expression BTW) is in fact only at the beginning. But the lisp is throughout the whole song
-
price please
You're right. It was a harsh. I am probably a bit oversensitive after the forum been flooded with price enquiries for rather common records last few months. Sorry.

Daybreak
Nice version. But once you're familiar with Daybreak you'll see it's pretty weak in comparison. In my opinion.

Wish I could be there to see the Chaumonts and get them to sign my copy of what I think is probably the best Northern Soul instrumental ever (and, it's on Bay Sound!):
