Hi folks, just looking at a Connie Questell Discography >>HERE<< and noticed they have (see below) two entries with unknown titles. Aware of the three Decca 45's she had issued, but I never knew there were other tracks... looks like there are two sessions here going by the dates, the second of which included the songs, 'Don't let it break your heart' and 'Tell me what to do' which came out Decca 31986 and 31783, and then the two unknown tracks with the date 2/4/1965, which this Discography refers to as the recording date. Just my luck they are known and covered up! but love to find out if anybody knows about these two tracks? ------------------ Company Matrix No.Size First Recording Date Title Primary Performer Description RoleAudio Decca 115700 - 2/16/1965 - Give up girl - Connie Questell vocalist Decca 115701 - 2/16/1965 - Straighten up - Connie Questell vocalist Decca 115702 - 2/16/1965 - World of trouble - Connie Questell vocalist Decca 115703 - 2/16/1965 - The girl can't take it - Connie Questell vocalist Decca NA 13262 - 2/4/1965 - Don't let it break your heart - Connie Questell vocalist Decca NA 13263 - 2/4/1965 - Tell me what to do - Connie Questell vocalist Decca NA 13264 2/4/1965 [Unknown title(s) Connie Questell vocalist Decca NA 13265 2/4/1965 [Unknown title(s) Connie Questell vocalist

no address around the bottom on the boot...

So strings and violin mix was the soul fox boot, sparse version (Belles Band) the acetate spun by Winstanley. Are there a few acetates about of this mix, one initially we know off sent to RW, but Pete Smith may have had one, and yours, all cut from the first one, I guess there maybe others...

hi there, need a copy of The Charts - Desiree, on Australian Septre, must be in good nick, label and play...Prefer demo always! Any other good quality Aussie released Soul, Garage, Mod, LP's and 45's, EP's etc... if its good and in nice nick, I might be interested, tell me what you got 🙂 Cheers Malc

I have to say, Halo is chuffing Brilliant just now, series two, it's got something for sure, I could not wait for this week’s episode... and it did not disappoint. Thats if you are a sci fi buff of course...

Ok, here it is, Belles - Don't Pretend Backing track played by Russ Winstanley in 74 at Wigan. There are two versions, one on the Soul Fox Label done by Soussan, and another one with overdubbed strings and lead violin played by Winstanley on an acetate, but dropped when Sousan did his Soul Fox Bootleg. I'd guess both were from Soussan, he just played about with one sent it to Winstanley as an acetate, and booted / pressed the other version... Here is a link to a thread where it was discussed >>HERE<<

didn't Pete Smith used to talk / play an Inst version of this? so not the Soul Fox boot, he said the version had been played at wigan, and I think had never appeared on vinyl as a legit or boot copy... Here's a proper one on Mirwood Demo, Mirwood Blue issue boot, I'd check the MR delta matrix number, its from 1966 so sould tally with the numbering for that year... deadwax details on the paper label stuck on styrene original Side A - 66 - 1080 - A (scratched in) (MR) stamped in a circular squiggle (scratched in) Sm (scratched in) Δ60224 (scratched in) Side B - 66 - 1078 - B (scratched in) (MR) stamped in a circular squiggle (scratched in) Sm (scratched in) Δ60225 (scratched in)

I met some chap at Pete Smith's house a few years back, he was from Wolverhampton but had lived out there years, he would know this immediately. I'll ping Pete, see if I can an answer... I can see the post you put up with the demo, I'd say you were right about that being 66... so the above is a re-issue? RCA did lots of reissues on Orange RCA here didnt they, Crackin Up, being the most known... commerial companies like to replicate work / products over across different territories, it makes for good business on the whole, it is logical RCA out there would have done the same... ?

this one 🙂 I think this is not a reissue, but I dont know that 100%

yep, they were in The Alley Cats together... as for a release on A&M,Id have said straight no before we saw those 'Summit' releases last week!

I think it's 'Chester Pipkin' Tim, but he does produce a PUMPIN track here for sure 🙂 I think I read somewhere that Coefield and Pipkin sang with Bobby Sheen in the late 5ts... think thats right

Allot of words about who they are, and where the concerts will be on the flyer, but nothing about the actual tracks they will do on the night... You could pull the short straw here and get Joe 90, Footsie and Hawaii 5 o! Could you imagine the BBC orchestra doing Travis Wammack - Scratchy! with Stuart Marconie doing the weird vocal bit... 🫣💩🫣

I have what you have, think that came from Tim Brown, but in the back of my mind, I’ve read something recently about who this group became, i.e. morphed into another group.

I have a very nice clean issue is thats any help? I know it's not a demo...
