Nice one Chris. You could make it easy for us and tell us what the Lp is as well Listening now and searching too, thanks

Whose auction is it?

Should be more footage of his visit on my youtube page.

The 1A indicate 1st recording/mix (1), 1st lacquer (A) as I have read on Dave Flynn and other sites. Neither did I say it was pressed in New York, merely indication what the P was for as again does Flynny.

ZTSP were Columbia's New York and Hollywood pressing plants. The J in JZSP signifies demo. Yes some matrix are scratched in.

The Red A is as said the plug side. The JZSP number confirms it a swell as the one with the A ends in 3 the flip (Too Late) 4.

I didn't know anything about this or that they used my video (not that I mind) so thanks for sharing Mike.

Larry Banks kindly sent me a couple of CDs. One of Connie and Sweet Magic taken from the masters and one of the El-Deons rehearsing for a reunion gig. Larry kindly said I could share with you so hear are the El-Deons.

and a grand is just daft, some desperate people out there, if they are Djs they'd do better showing a bit of imagination and saving a few quid.

I believe it was a Mecca spin originally albeit very brief. Chris Plant who probably began to give it serious turntable action?

Scans courtesy of a mate......

Ion first who sold it to Rob Marriott who in turn sold it to Richard.

The Sweets are/were three sisters from Richmond, California. Felice, Darlene and Norma Taylor. There was an assumption that Sandy Golden sang SAMB as it shares the same backing as the Sandy Golden track but I think that was just an uneducated guess with nothing to back it up.

It says The Stax Club doesn't it? Photo taken Oxford Street, Malmesbury, Wilts

It says The Stax Club doesn't it?

take a look at the scans, the flip clearly has something cut on it. When asked a question by Steve Clancy the reply was "oh yes it has some female northern soul think on it but don't know what it is" ....or something like that.

The "acetate" has a female northern soul track on the flip, the seller didn't realise

£800 and upwards. Two releases, one with a better flip. Yes it still gets played.

The same, Madeline was Madeline Strickland who was also lead singer of the Young Folk.

I was gonna say I thought this was about a group member who recorded a track with the group and as a solo artist?

might be someone bidding with no intention of paying, been a lot of talk about it.

Eddie Spencer wasn't in the Precisions though?

Another genius taken. R.I.P. Tommy Tate and thank you for the music.

Its one of those that Ian Levine had something to do with. Dead wax details The Change Will Do You Good Reading anti clockwise from 11 0 clock; RE – UM 1001 A then a space RC then another space and what looks like a small oval shape with two horizontal lines running through it. I’ll Never Have You Reading anti clockwise from 11 0 clock: RE – UM 1001 B then a gap and a circlular shape with an oval going through it (a little like a “Saturn” ) This one really looks the part but again the labels are slightly too small. No circular pattern on the label.

But it is still an edit rather than a different take.
