makes all sense, see above, both copies bought in Toronto.

so both, yours and mine come from Toronto.

very true, cheers simon, have a peaceful night too, many thanks and atb marc

hi simon, I wasnt having a go at you or juke box jam or liam in person. so please dont feel attacked in any kind of way as you seem to do judging from your answer. I didnt know it belongs to any series jbj was/is putting out and if they managed to buy the rights fair do then and my respect. As I said in my initial post, so many people tried to license from devora brown and in the recent past from her son...and nobody was ever able to negotiate and finalize a deal with them...thats why I wondered. atb marc

wonder who is responsible for this ...well, let`s say...re-issue ? surely everybody and his dog in the world of soul re-issue companies tried to convince the former label owners for the rights to re-isssue their output and were always turned down ?

no! they are fabulous in my book, for what they are..terry goodnight proper gritty heavy LA Northern, Lynn fablous white Detroit Soul. Ah well, never mind Nev LOL !

could understand someone not having this down as his # 1 alltime fave...but awfull dross is a bit harsh LOL I love it..both sides by teh way.

I may add that I bought my copy in Toronto, Canada

my copy of the above looks exactly the same. the printing is in blue not black though. run out groove 4351-A, flipside 4351-B FRM Take it the latter part FRM indicates the pressing plant.

play it from time to time in my opening spots at the hip city...just did so last night. first set is always deep, group and harmony.

if you see two, buy both and let me have the spare (for the tip).

sadly not. only heard it twice..had to persuade butch to play it at the hip city. YOU woud love it too..that I know!

...a few I cant see the attraction in scorpio & his people hector riviera chance for blablabla (maybe just a case of cant hear it ANYMORE) sandi & the matues world h. andrews tired of being lonely

the flipside is just...marvellous. sweet harmony with a good dance beat. top.

almost a street slang translation

Marvelous Ray..what a nice 45. Still regret having sold that on ebay (where you bought it off me )

de gustibus non est disputandum ... one of my favourite labels, such an important Detroit record company, so many great tracks, in fact all except maybe for the 2 sides by The Magnificent Seven (which is also amongst the hardest to get on this logo).

Oh, they were so great! Tried to win them but got outbid when they were up on ebay about a year or so ago. Did you win them ?

none of the yellow copies do have the "Baby I Want You" side. musically only of interest to Group and Motown collectors hence a lower (way lower) value/sales price.

quoting the previous thread it was already about 4 - 5 people who had a copy at some stage. plus the copy from this recent auction makes it 5 - 6 in total. whatever the real number, we will never know for certain. there are always more copies out there than we can imagine reyling on collectors hearsays, myths and rumours. anyway, two nice numbers and a few hrs have past since my last post so I edited and deleted the files now. its up to bob, sharlow 45 or whoever to provide full mp3s to the public.

...yes...on both accounts ;)

here`s what was up on ebay...I do know that mp3`s are not allowed outside sales...but maybe the mods can allow here an exception to that rule. willleave them on here for a few hrs and edit/delete them after that. Hope thats OK.

RIP Mr Norman..

Ha! the last copy I was looking for to complete my Thelma label run was....Alberta Adams! So here we go, despite the white Demo game Alberta Adamns easily the hardest to track down (especially in good nick). Had a spare in the meantime but sadly already traded it away mate! atb marc whcih answers the question which is the rarestyour

no, as I stated in my opening lines..I am (still) open to offers till 2026 ;) sorry mate, it was a joke thread.
