I sold a straight copy a few months ago, they are out there.

How about, The Newcomers - Too Little in Common to be Lovers (Too Much Going on to say Good-Bye) / The Whole World's A Picture Show on Truth... My favorite deepie, backed with an the evergreen 7ts dancer... great track, but 'Little in common' is the one for me...

Spencer Wiggins – I’m at the Breaking Point / Make me Yours / Kent Select EX++ £60 Classic crossover tracks, both sides. Nice clean copy. Carl Gilbert - Crying Heart / Audio Arts EX+ £250 Vinyl is nice and clean, I bought this in a batch of water damaged 45’s, so I coloured in the damage, it’s a good copy, plays nice and clear, which is out in web land at £300 plus. Wilma Scott - It's A Mean Old World / Verdy EX+ £60 Serious slowie, some marks on the vinyl, nap, but overall nice and clean, lots of clopies out there are not. Bobby Reed - The Time is Right for Love / Bell (Vinyl) Issue dh EX++ £600 This is a utter Spanker of a copy, in vinyl, comes in the correct ‘Bell’ sleeve and looks the business. You will not find a nicer copy, hense price. Garland Green - Come Through Me /Junior McCants-Try Me For Your New... / Kent Anniversary 45 EX+ £100 This was the year the 45 wasn’t ready for the night, think I picked this up at the next nighter. Ady was playing it, and it came straight off the 100 club decks into my hands. Leroy Taylor - Oh Linda / Spanish Deca (Pic Sleeve) EX+ swol £130 Nice copy, sleeve has no splits, this is a really nice example of this Spanish release, the swol doesnt mean anyting 'Ninga por estimarte' might kinda mean none to your esteme, something like that, but its gibberish... ---- I prefer PayPal either Friends & Family or add the normal 4% fee, or you can pay by direct Bank Transfer.

William Bell - Born Under a Bad Sign / Stax EX++ Stormer from William Bell, was a bit of a play about 10 years back. Very nice copy play and label. Luv Co - Things are not the Same / Spring Demo EX++ Another brilliant sweet soul 45, arr by Gary Sherman, it was always gonna be brill!!

I really like Mark Williams (white NZ Singer) version of House for Sale. He also did a nice version of 'Why Cant we be Lovers' the Holland Dozier Holland song on his Lp 'Taking it all in Stride' well worth a listen.

Nice scan and a bit of info I have. Real Name Ernie Lucas, West Coast release, recording as himself on Okeh (twice), as Lord Jim on the same Blue Star label, and as Karl Evans on Skyway.

Had a clean and a shave today...

Right, votes are tailing off now on this one, Gonna leave it open until tomorrow night (Wednesday), and publish the winner... which is as I type a neck and neck race between Tony Clarke and Del Larks...

I can't help you with reading suggestions I'm afraid, but this is a very interesting subject, and the open Letter from Motown, I'd never seen that before, and of course they were a major player, so thats a normal industry level realease. Published here and there I assume? you dont mention the source? Had to chuckle, I'm sure most of you who read this did as well, so we sent the Hollies, Searchers, Gerry & the Pacemakers, Dave Clark Five the other way... yep, you can have them...

That’s an interesting version, love Omar, he really pushes the envelope with the projects he gets involved with and songs he sings… on Golden brown, there was a mash up that came out a few years back. WS golden brown mashed with Take Five, which was really really good one

Which one? J gems or Kris?

Outstanding!! I want a copy of that one... I found the LP, checkin it out just now... Some nice alternatives above, here’s a few I like. Derrick Cross - Never Too Much (fab Lovers Rock version) Georgie Fame & The Blue Flames - Green Onions Brian Auger & Julie Tippetts (Driscoll)- Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood (The old Animals hit, from their Encore LP) Grant Green Feat Dianne Reeves - Down here on the Ground / originally done by Wes Montgomery, like an inst jazz track

Bill I've Never fliiped Wanderers, and it's a favorite 45, I'm going in!

An impossible task, but there are a few that I play every other day, chuck Jackson - hand it over / Look over your shoulder Towana Barnes - help me get that feelin / wear your natural baby margie Joseph - one more chance / Never can you be Jay Wiggins - Forgive then forget / My lonely girl

Nope, they got to be exciting as Mello Souls, but only worth a fraction... I think 'Mercy Men - You Made it Thunder' is a credable one here, not as fast and manic as Mello Souls, not many are, but it's got that edge! and thankns @Dave Pinch I knew it was expensive when it first turned up, don't remember who's discovery that one was.

Mercy Men - You Made it Thunder? Maynot be £20 now, but it was about that price for ages and ages...
