Montgomery 'beloved' Scepter "RARER" title Q?
This's been in the back of my head for a while now. Not a matter of life and death, just a record and artist I love. So I'd like to know if there's a story to understand with it. It's about the "rarer" title version. Trying to put the pieces together with modern i-technology, I manage to find out that it was firstly credited 'dearly beloved' and only last 'my dear beloved' apparently. Which is the copy I have. The promo copies only bear the title 'dearly beloved' and they are followed by the stockers from the same respective two pressing plant. I've found one promo from yet a third pressing plant (ABC ?) for which I've never seen a stocker of though. Few other promo Scepter numbers from that same pressing plant seem to have had the same fate. Now apparently the story could be that only one pressing plant continued to supply the demand and likely pressed some more with that little twist variation in the title as 'my dear beloved' for what ever reason. That is supposedly the rarer version title. Odd thing is that most of these seem to have been thrown into the sales stalls as of most of these seem to have drilled cut-out. Anyone knows better ? no "stocker" of this number were pressed from this pressing plant then no stocker press with the alternative 'my dear...' title then AND

See I got it all wrong. Not by far though. None made the TOP 50 still ! Thanks for pointing that to me out.

Don't know about less air-play action for the Radiants but by the number of copies I have seen on USA and foreign releases through the decades, I'd have thought the other way around. With the less HIT/sales for the Knight Brothers, then James Phelps and finally the Radiants. But I'm always happy to be proven wrong.

This is the much rarer black stocker Monarch press that looks stunning as it sounds; fantastic ! Strict grading for strong Ex overall condition jimmy bee2.mp3 Here are the Why'Z; - a 'Mr Heartache Souvenir' William Powell composition ! - Soul meet R'n'B with Jimmy's speech/singing is cool and fresh as burning and warm ! - This is the L.A. sound with all the Mirwood imprints on a stomper that is not overheard to death ! - 20th Century record took great pride in making the most well done mastering and pressing job for the love of good looking as sounding records. - Judge for yourself the scans and soundclip from the actual record for sale.

Fred Mark
My spontaneous imagination tells me that he's a "wanna be" singer that spent all his savings in a recorded backing track. Took a tape of it back home an trained to sing on it under the shower, doing the dishes and sitting on the loo. After a week his wife left him, the cat found refuge with the neighbor and the canari committed suicide soon after hearing the "song" over and over again all day long. To have only one vanity record was not enough... Have more !

But was it 'A Big Thing' after all ?
Girl group could have been re-named the Singing Along Teen Brats and song re-credited 'Say Wah ? My thang ain't big ? B*tch !' with "lumpy arms" in session as drummer. LOL ! No wonder I still don't dare to listen to those budget "Hit" releases records. Thanks for sharing Mike 'huh'. Every now and then a song gets so many contemporary covers (imagine how many college band sung it live unrecorded...) for whatever reasons. My guess is that this one must have been big with the teens as it remained a "classic evergreen" through the late sixties in the USA. But at least the Radiants (still my favorite version) 'it ain't no big thing' did cash some on it. Finally still better such a cover than 'yesterday' or other songs we try to escape from even when sung by the original artists...

Gary Garnett-Have you heard the news
Well, this quest started/sounded "scary" for a daft geezer like me not in "the known" of the now NS club sounds. But thanks to the crazy YT clip provided by 'huh' I find it rather intriguing even if the guy was looking... not black ! Or not a "typical" NS hero. Still, appealing even if "teeny" on the sides, very pleasant. Live and learn. Me like

Rockabilly tracks at Mod Events?
A "Mod" night is a night sky with the customized 'Lambretta & Vespa' stellar constellation full on headlights, also the 'BaCKman & Robin' Zodiac who gave their name to the oddest male hair cut the "Back-Comb", a profusion of 'purple pills' shooting stars and a 'Live act' the 'Combat 84'... I meant the 'Brighton 64' LOL !

Different pressing plants for faster cheaper national distribution. Only that I believe since not such a "hot hit" to rerun presses to supply demand. Never seen a white demo of that one though... Can we see ?

Customs charges!!
False decla The authorities might not be incline to put so much effort to "investigate" if a fraud that involve likely less money than what it would cost them is rather thin... The seller on the other hand if selling through a "big" site is require to follow the site regulation that is at the same time in respect with every country custom and fiscal regulation. For the seller's risk to take blame. Because a profit company with a monopole is free to find it's profit everywhere it can ! Yesterday, due to a misunderstanding from an American seller, I got in my mail box a pair of 45's that added above $22 (above that value Belgium Custom VAT & fee$ are applied) that I did require to be ship separately though. So the pair of 45 transited through Custom. It's summer, holiday time and the postman is on holiday. Students are doing the job and likely didn't read the custom sheet/slip on the parcel to require me the €25 custom VAT (€10) and fees (€15) before handling me the parcel... Instead plain and simple drop in my mail box. Relieved & happy ! Both the seller and I

Rockabilly tracks at Mod Events?
Indeed. By the mid 8T's in Europe (meaning not only in the UK) both the mods and rockers were leaning more and more towards digging the roots of Rythm'n'Blues. In blood lines as in music; roots cross to meet at certain depth.
