What's Your Favourite Cover Version
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

MELLO SOULS - YAWN!!!!
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.

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

Detroit Files: Arthur Ashford - The Precisions Interview
thats a shame, did he, or others speak about working with Dale Warren? my favorite track by them is 'What I want' it's got Dale Warren all over it...
-
Detroit Files: Arthur Ashford - The Precisions Interview
At the end he states "when the Atlantic record thing was being.... we died" did he ever tell you more about how / why that happened Graham? You would think getting a song out nationally would have helped?
-
MELLO SOULS - YAWN!!!!
Oppps, that said I think you might have answers already... 🙂
-
MELLO SOULS - YAWN!!!!
Nope, I don’t dislike it, but I'm happy to say I prefer 'The Soul Set - Will You Ever Learn' a million times over Mello Souls...

Detroit produced 45's on non-Detroit labels !
Has somebody mentioned Diane Lewis - I Thank You Kindly / Wand? or would that come under Detroit producers, or Detroit productions and recordings of Detroit artists that are leased to other labels? Produced by Herman Griffin, Says H&A Productions so I guess so...?

Mixcloud - Sounds from the shelter
Good stuff Benji, something for everyone in this one. Some very old, oldies! at the start, I don't always admit it, but after hating it throughout my teens, I actually like Muriel Day, a bit... 🥴

Worst Record Shop Experiences?
Thats a mean hit Kev! I got a load of stuff out of Neptoon on the day I visited, unopened 25 count boxes of Motown titles, loads of Canadian only tracks, stuff like Sy Risby/Chuck Flintroy, they were all cheap, under $10/5 bucks. One place I though was crap initially was Calgary but I did find one shop where I had the same sort of experience as yourself, found loads of good stuff, and the lady at the counter didnt know how much to charge, she was sitting in for the owner, so I agreed $3 each, I think there 60 records in total... I also made a sharp exit! laughing

Worst Record Shop Experiences?
When I walked in there, I had to walk past three tasty looking dudes who had a soundsystem in the boot of their car, the boot was open and they were drapped all over it, so he comes outs out and shots F*** off you lot, customers! I felt a right drip with my little box and harrington jacket... and your right, he had buggar all that day as well Paul ! I have posted these pictures before, but the bottom level of Neptoon Records in Toronto was an eye opener! Sure you can look, just watch out for the 'GIMP'!
