Thanks a lot. Will give it a try over the w/end. I record my own podcasts straight from the single deck w/out blending/mixing. Quicker than having to make wav files of the records first but not many options in mixing/equalising volume/etc.

I always wondered how this UK release came about. Was it like a phone call to the UK MGM office "Hello London! We got a song here. Recorded by a bunch of High School musicians and a priest. We don't think anyone in the ex-colonies would buy it. But maybe you guys in old europe do?"

Sebastian, does VirtualDJ work with audio files or audio input straight from the decks?

Good question. I think they're legit but giving the number of releases they have it's hard to believe they got the rights for all of them.

Dave, what pi**es me off is you tried to make your assumption to look like a fact. Anyway, I think it's not worth talking about that any longer. You said "few UK RECORDINGS DRIFTER". Do you mean UK covers of Ray Pollard? There's only one that springs to my mind and that's Long John Baldry. Are there any others? Speaking of LJB, we can add his take of the drifter to the list of UK recorded/released. Infact I think it's UK only isn' it? LJB's cover of the Ray Pollard flip "let him go" is another UK recording but was released at least in Germany and maybe other european countries.

Don't know why I do this but anyway: Singer Ray Pollard - born in NY and spent most of his musical career there. Producer: Gerry Granahan, born in Pennsylvania. US east coast based singer, songwriter, producer Arranger: Arnold Goland, born in NY And now you tell me they all went to the UK to record "the drifter"? BTW, nobody has to prove you're wrong. It's you who has to prove he's right.

We had that discussion three years ago. Or was it four years? Look up credits on both songs. They literally scream "New York". Your vague assumption is based on what? A paper clipping?

Mine's Mello Souls and JD Bryant on Shrine trophy item-wise. But if I really had a huuge amount of money I'd go to dealers with a bigger stock like Manship, Tim Brown and buy 1 copy each of every soul record they have.

Thanks, that makes more sense to me.

Eddie kendricks doing evil? never New that. any Details?

They changed the design of german TM from green/silver to black around 1967/68 when EMI took over TM from CBS. I'm pretty sure the same happened in NL. Edit: Just looked up Discogs. The dutch Festival time is from 1971 and ties in with the UK issue on TMG 795 from the same year

what part? Hair growing out one's ears?

Nonsense.

UK recordings they may be but Frankie & Johnny, Chapter Five and Helen Shapiro are not UK-only releases.

Topic re-opened. Still after a copy. Previous deal fell through because of misunderstanding, I'm after the Little Ritchie version, NOT Roscoe Robinson!

Updated

The "s" of superdisc is somewhere between upper and lower case. So you're both right (in a way). I say it's an original.

Best lisp Northern ever (IMO)

I seriously doubt the CD is legal. Basically they just copied a rare modern CD i did 10/12 years ago for a few friends, added 4 tracks and designed a new cover.

Great record. More Info on Shandells
