Yes, clearly organ with a bit of echo. Still sounds weird though.

why? freebie was first

The belgian press looks like a bootleg to me. I mean, just look at the logo. and the overall appearance of the label. Smells fishy. BTW, I keep seeing an allegedly german press of Jamo Thomas on lists. Can somebody confirm that there's really one?

CDs and later on MP3 sort of "killed" collecting compilation LPs (IMO). I know some guys who tried to get all Soul Supply and Kent LPs. Eventually they did. But that was 20 years ago. Nowadays it's either OVO or pressings or MP3 files.

I agree, getting the complete Kent vinyl set is very hard. Some LPs are very easy to find, others very tough. But the question is: Are there any collectors out there trying to complete the whole set? I don't think so. And if there are, probably just a few Or speaking of collectors in general. Are there any collectors of 80s/90s Soul/Northern Soul compilation LPs. Again, I don't think so. My point is: IMO compilation LPs are completely out of fashion these days. I'm going to repeat myself here. Folks either want OVO or at least a 7" reissue/boot for haptic feeling.

Really? Didn't know that..

As good as they are, IMO all those Kent and Charly compilations aren't worth more than 10/15 quid these days. Due to demand. Because there isn't much. Folks either want the real deal, or 7" reissues/boots.

Hm, not trying to suggest anything. But is it possible that that specific "intro noise" press was dubbed from another disc?

sorry for hijacking the thread. Here's TG live:

I guess it's just you. Because not grading the "unwanted"/ballad side is nothing recent. This has happened to me quite often even back then in pre-internet times. It's a pain in the ass, I agree.

Steelers - Disturbing thought. Awful intro. Improves significantly after that.

I don't say it's not her. Only that she denies it's her. I guess it's more like she doesn't want to be associated with a commercial flop considering her career.

Thanks.

Just my two-penneth: Candi Staton denies it's her.

Rob, were these labels distributed by Circa from Day 1 or were they picked up for distribution later on?

If seller would have followed the guidelines Ivor's post wouldn't be necessary. What's the point of deleting the price?

I know, I said vol. 24 was the final one. But as I sat in my bunker full of music the other day i realized there's still too many records I never featured in any of my podcast. So here's volume 25. A jolly good mix of all sorts of my favourite black-american music with a few oddities thrown in. ♪♪ Sounds From The Shelter Vol. 25 - Right on time ♪♪ Dry Well * Gypsy * Lauren 45 Alice Clark * You hit me (alt take) * GWP LP The Pasadenas * Tribute (Right on) * German CBS 45 Clear Daze * Baby it's nice (to be cared for) * Jamesland 45 Jade * Music Slave * Pesante 45 The Nights * Love knocked you down * ABC LP Barbara Mercer * So real * Sidra 45 The Rockmasters * Raining teardrops * Romulus 45 Magnificent 7 * Ooh baby baby * Dial 45 Tammy Wayne * Have a good time * Boom 45 Tennessee Ernie Ford * 16 tons (1965) * German Capitol 45 Gary Dean * You can say * Young 45 Eugene Gaspard * Holding on * Rosemont 45 Donald Albert * The hardest part * Run-A-Way 12" The Ballads * Butterfly * Music City 45 Little Eddie Taylor * I had a good time * Peacock 45 Misty Moore * Little things * Pzazz 45 Jimmy Church * Right on time * SS7 45 Earl English * Wanting you * Invictus 45 Billy Sha-Rae * Do it * Spectrum 45 The Lovables * You can't dress up a broken heart * Toot 45 Magnificent 7 * She's called a woman * Eastern 45 Debonaires * Headache in my heart * Solid Hit 45 The Intrigues * Don't refuse my love * Port 45 Roy Hamilton * Heartache (hurry on by) * RCA 45 Gwen McCrae * Your love is worse than a cold love * German RCA LP Loleatta Holloway * Mrs. So & So's Daughter * UK Kent 12" Dionne Warwick * Lonely in my heart * German Scepter LP Tony Gregory & Family Child * What I'll do * German Finger LP Art Gentry * This is my chance * UK Kent 12"

I agree that it's really hard to shift decent lower value tunes on Ebay nowadays. I hardly bother putting them on Ebay. Last few things I had, not just soul, but also some doowop and reggae, went for peanuts, like 1 Euro or 3/4 euros max. Even though they were worth much much more. On the other hand, I had three 70's tunes for sale on SS, each worth 300+. None of them sold. Even with price reductions. Eventually I put them on Ebay, But-It-Now prices at my initial prices. They all sold in the end.

Is the Temptones one the same that Butch used to play ("That's when you know you're in love")?

Not even mock up label. Just Norma Jenkins photoshopped in a picture of the Sparkels. Pathetic.

Pretty clear IMO: 6. Please refrain from removing any details from the ads after selling [or obtaining a want]. You can edit to show "SOLD" but better to leave the ad intact please, as the information therein contributes to a database other members can refer to when looking up current prices, availability etc

Maybe Kenny G? Here's the vocal take. Flip of the 12" is instrumental. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BsCX1mF-fsA

Yes, definitely Marmite. I really like the harmonica take, though I don't like Marmite. The non-harmonica take is somehow empty IMO.

At the end of the day we're all opprtunists, aren't we?
