Platters 81

yes its a Madison.......with slightly altered lyrics (e.g" two boss lines" ).......ive got the sheet music to Ray Bryants 1960 orig....which uses "freeze"....."hit it"..."your lookin good"...etc.......

the vocal to "like a rolling stone " didnt come out on the Grapevine lp either......the Satiron 45 is its only vinyl release.as far as i know....has it ever been comped on CD?

Heres a West Coast variation....styrene delta no 65195 (Feb 67)

i would think you could include Joyce Jones on Vee-eight/Atco as a "version".......i always wondered how they got away with ostensibly copying a million seller....slightly fiddling with the title and lyrics

Dave Bupp and the Magnificent Men must have been chuffed when Jerry B covered "Peace of Mind" on the Soul Artistry LP.......

del satins green vinyl.....i didnt buy Dave A's yellow vinyl......my theory is that Soussan distributed these to UK DJs to promote the boot?

ive noticed this over the last few years......selling and seeing e bay prices.....recently i saw a VG ++ copy of the Compliments (time of her life) on Congress go for 25 on e bay.......this used to be 75 all day long.......anyone else perceived this trend?

my Servicemen on Chartmaker is well warped..but plays if i get the right arm pressure....which i check every time i play it......i would need a lot of convincing before i tried to have if unwarped. .i dont think its a heat warp........

i particularly like the flip of "no way out ".........."dreamer"....ive got it on the west coast label.(Infinity)

ive just checked and i posted the acetate in 2007 on refosoul as "test press" give it a listen stevie......note "dream girl" on the acetate is the same as the Drew release...

i have a blank label acetate of Precisions "instant Heartbreak" which sounds like the released take but 5RPM slower ( and imo better)....so anyone djing the Drew copy should pitch it down to get how it was recorded...try it

this is a good version.......tough one on 45....ive got a spare

i always thought that the Lovations on Part III was the first issue?

i got mine in a soul pack late 79......i kept it for the other side.....then crossover was invented as a genre

we played this at a record session round mine a few weeks ago.....my submission is the flip to Hugo Montenegro "Sherry".....(must be on OOTP)

youre in a pop group from Warrington in 68 and your brother has some Major Lance 45s..less than a fiver on US... i love it ......https://youtu.be/qpCsk0XkIgM

I mentioned the version by Jessy Dixon on the other Gospel thread. I posted it on Refo about 5 years ago (its still there)......cracking dancer,,,,,,dunno how to post a link

theres a very good fast driving version of "Wade in the Water" by Jessy Dixon and the Chicago Community Choir on Savoy..super dancer...i dont think its on 45....ive got it on the Best of Jessy Dixon double LP Savoy SGL7021.(I like it so much ive got 3 copies)..the orig LP(a rare one) is "These heavy burdens wont last always" on Gospel MG 3055.....

mines the same.....had it for the same time.......ive never tried to sell it because people think its cracked..

yes theres double sided demos of the other side on US Evolution....but i havent seen a US issue (or demo)...with Endless Confusion on.....

anyone seen an issue of Tom Green on Evolution with Endless Confusion on?

yes.......Chuck Corby had releases on both Sonic and Fee Bee....

cant remember if i posted this before...i guess early 80ts......ive had this a few years....never seen another....but im no expert in Modern

great info all thanks

On the LP credits for "I lost a true love " it shows diff credits to the 45.......F wilson V wilson etc...and ive always suspected a Motown involvement on this and "this thing called love" ...particularly that sax break on the Johnny Wyatt version.....any comments?
