Chuck Jackson "i Don't Wanna Cry" Vs. Big Maybelle
I was wrong. Same backing, just different mix.

Chuck Jackson "i Don't Wanna Cry" Vs. Big Maybelle
I don't know anything about the writing credits. But what I know is that the backing is similar but not the same. Same sheet of music but different recordings. (I know that sounds pretty pedantic) PS: thanks for posting Big Maybelle's version. I didn't know of it before.

John Manship Auction Results 7-5-2014
CBS issued 4 records sung in german on Tamla-Motown. "Jonny and Joe" is the most common one. Whoever bought it paid about three times it's real value. well done.

Boss Records Detroit
You're right we don't have any sense of humour. Willy Millowitsch was an actor. Not a comedian.

Marvin L Sims - Get Off Of My Back, Revue
Maybe because eventually folks realised what a great record it is? I'd heard it at many continental europe venues over the years. Each time I thought I'll get a copy one day. Finally bought one last year and it's still among my current favourites. The deep flip is just as good.

Correct title is "Why you wanna treat me the way you do". The misspelt title is rarer but not that much rarer than the correct one (IMO)

Obscure - unusual Foreign Releases
Is this a single track 45 or an EP? Only heard of an EP release before. PS: Issue.

Del Royals - Some Kind Of Wonderful - Mercury - Value?
Del Royals - Some kind of wonderful/same - Mercury WD Just bought this blind. But it's not really my cup of tea so I'm going to sell it again. Has anyone any idea of a fair price for it? I googled for it but prices seem to be all over the place, from $25 to 50 UKP. Is 10/15 quid ok? Thanks! Benji

Johnnie Taylor - Friday Night - White Demo ?
I don't have it myself, but I remember seeing a white label demo of the german Stax release many years ago. Maybe this is the one?

Creations-Say Say Baby Info
I still like the LP. All but one tune (Eddie Hollad- Outside looking in) unreleased. Sound quality differs but most tracks play quite good. My favourite track is Angel Doll by the Temps. PS: Never reached vol.2

Rob Marriott Tape From September 1992

But great stuff nevertheless Here's a scan of vol1's tracklist:

Flanny's Pure Dynamite 1
What I heard I sure did. Thing is, I don't really have the time to play podcasts online. I usually download them and put them on my iPod to have some entertainment while commuting. And I'd like to know what I'm listening to hence my request for a playlist.

Flanny's Pure Dynamite 1
Nice one, many thanks! Any chance of a tracklist that I could add to the downloaded mp3 file for my ipod?

Come On Now Which Ones The Rarest
I used to dislike Buddy Smith, mostly because of his lisp. But now I think it's a really great record. Very basic production, amateur-ish but so ambitious and soulful, I love it.
