Never considered that, but can’t think of any other 45s under the name... br interested to know who sang ‘Chicken Roll’ lol

Interesting, I worked for PYMCA way back before the dates you mention, I know the owner sold some images to Rex, which was bought by Shutterstock Editorial, but I’m not surprised to hear about your experience, unfortunately it happens allot. I would say you don’t need a lawyer, simply demand a list of the images they hold, the sales they have made to which magazines and media outlets, and a list of dates, and most importantly the fees they charged. Once you have this, you can get to work. Review your rights via the government copyright website. Good luck malcolm

I’m buying that, immediately! 🙂

allot of Mary's 20th Century classic here on Aussie labels, very nice on white test demo as well 🙂 also one of her earlier Jubilee recordings that came out on the London Label, dist with a Decca sleeve... I have all her Motown 45's but will try to scan later, its interesting to see how much Motown re issues things like 'My Guy' etc later in the sixties... Mal

I keep a big box of assorted yank and Aussie ones, some British... always looking for certain sleeves though, especially good quality Aussie, Astor, Atlantic (Green), Festival (Blue Logo) and W&G, but must be the correct sleeves for their import series... :-)

Cheers Tony, might get one... you don’t expect miracles in this day and age but a ton of new 45s to play on a Friday evening with a glass or two... :/)

Fair to assume they Might be a tad on the ‘thinner side’ now Baz. Lol

Mr Soul - Bud Harper and Joyce Bond - Mrs Soul 🙂

Was listening to ‘Al Perkins - ‘yes my goodness yes’ and remembered his partner or wife Velma Perkins also cut the side, either an unissued thing or for Lion records I cant remember, both great though... in fact didn’t al cut two versions, Or was Buddha picked up on Atco? And to turn this on the side for a moment how about: GIrl Watcher / Boy Watcher 🙂 mal

Was thinking about these recently, and that I might have a punt.... also be interested to see what recent buyers got for their money on any of the packs? 6ts or 7ts

Tongue & cheek mate...

Sounds a bit like ‘Jean Wells - Just loving you’ on Calla, another top Grover!

We Met at Tower Bridge to do the deal? Yep you did... and I’m sorry but I can’t kick her out of bed mate.... my spelling is dreadful btw... known for it!

That’s the one, well done that man! Cool track... no idea is it silly money record or as my MP3 says one off...

I’m born on 20th October and it’s the big Cinquenta this year.. so was looking at tracks big in Oct 69, lots of soul but don’t fancy many of em till I noticed billboard top 50 for 69 included Spiral Staircase, take that! Strangley I spent my 39th birthday in Miami, went shopping with liza my wife and she bought everything😲 I got nothing, bar a consolation prize hearing Spiral Staircase in a Starbucks once we stopped to count how many bags Liza had, I’m not bitter....🍺

I’ll post the MP3 up when I get home, if that’s allowed?

Ok well that’s interesting, I don’t have a scanner any longer, but mine is deffo red, not yellow🤫... got to be worth two grand then...lol shop I bought it from had no idea...

Hi all, just come across his in my i-tunes library, no idea who I’ve swapped it with but says unissued acetate which cuts out right at the end so I guess it is/was an exclusive? No song title or piccie either, anybody know this one, know anything about it? Cause it’s brilliant sixties northern track Mal

Tickets booked, with a weekender at Bilbao the wkd before plus live music from swamp dog et al, it’s gonna be a great soulful birthday for me this one...

Has thee got Scots on swingers hilarious

Hi all, anybody know if this has been reissued or bootlegged? i found a 12 inch red label copy of this track the other day, can’t make my mind up about it... discogs, that bastion of pricing rare soul 45s, offers one copy at over a grand.... don’t believe discog pricing as most of it is just made up, but if my red 12 is orig, what’s it worth... mal

I was at Bath races last week with work, bet a few quid, won two races but this young fellow called ‘spiritualist’ came in last... now I know why he didn't really race at all but he did do a great ‘Cha Cha Cha’....

Big favourite, especially on an Aussie demo..

Love ‘too young for me’ took me ages to get a good one, loads of copies are such bad condition... great thread 🙂
