Who Was Jimmy Church?
He was Atlanta based and was the regular act on a TV series of soul shows in the 60s, I have them on Video, and he appeared every week singing a different song. That's probably him, doing a cover. I guess you have or know of his 45 releases?

Common Labels/rare Records.?
Agreed we could run a separate thread on that......

Common Labels/rare Records.?
A number of pretty rare Bell records out there - Jim Gilstrap Run run run for example. Also I think Happy is quite a tough one, same one side as their Verve release but with a different B side on Bell.

Common Labels/rare Records.?
It's tough, I think because she died when the promos were out there. Did you sell it in the end?

Yes and I'd also say Herman Kelly on RCA is pretty hard to find and it's a cracking soul record both sides. Another 70s one Tyrone Thomas Polydor?

Oh all right I'll join in, if only to get this back on the 'latest topics' page. The B side of T99 on Hi, speeded up to +6 on yer turntable - great little 60s sound.

Thanks and welcome to replying on soul source, keep posting etc.......It is I believe the same song as the record you can hear the title etc.

Common Labels/rare Records.?
Rare issues are another subject altogether - sometimes because the record company abandoned the release after promo due to lack of response, and ditched the stock.

Perhaps the one I put up fits into this category. I certainly think so.

Common Labels/rare Records.?
There are often contractual disputes which prevent a record getting distributed at the last moment or 'pulled'. Or the preceding record becomes a big hit so the company puts all their efforts into promoting that. Or it just doesn't get the airplay they'd hoped for. Or the Promotional / A&R men don't distribute them and they get binned instead. Or the artist has signed somewhere else by the time the record comes out. Or the thing was never going to get properly promoted, but it came as part of a job lot (e.g. three groups on a deal to get a record out on a label and despite putting it out the company never gets behind the third one). Or there's a fault on the pressing (could even include mis-spelling or omitted names)...many reasons, even for larger labels.
