tha stamp is some sort charity stamp for crippled children. October 1960 the first reference I could find for the Master Sound release not 61.

Nothin Left 2 Do for the Coalitions - New Release Soul Junction
Soul Junction favourites The Coalitions return with a brand new recording done in conjunction with Soul Junction. Their album "Colour Me Blue" is a firm favourite with Soul music lovers with tracks picked up b Djs and dancers alike. Here we see a brand new recording backed with one of the favourites from the 2013 album release. Press Release: The Coalitions (a.k.a Rheel Menn) “Nothin’ Left 2 Do/Didn’t We Almost Make It” SJ535 Release Date: Monday October 17th 2016 The Coalitions (also known as The Rheel Menn) return with a brand new song entitled “Nothin’ Left 2 Do” a song recorded and produced in collaboration with Soul Junction Records during 2015 under the auspices of some of the City of Brotherly Loves finest musicians. We begin with the songwriters Lavern Bynum, Bruce Fauntleroy and Leroy ‘Shu-Baby’ Shuller. With the songs recording and mixes have been expertly done by producer, Craig White at Sound Doctor Productions LLC. Craig was the former studio manager at the world renowned Gamble & Huff studios. The mastering was done by Peter Humphrey’s at Masterwork Recording (USA). 2016 finally sees the initial release of “Nothin’ Left 2 Do” a song of forlorn hope for a former lost love, that’s oozes class from the opening horn riffs executed beautifully by Henri McMillians UGO Horn Section. But despite the songs sad lyrics the overall mood of the track is very pleasantly uplifting. The line up on this song features Philadelphians Leonard Deans, Tony McFarland, Bruce Fauntleroy (the songs co-producer), Alan Williams and Tony Anderson (a.k.a Tony Talent) who’s vocal ability is a throwback to the days of when nearly every street corner in many major US cites would resonate to a all male group harmony sound. A sound that these five gentlemen still regularly perform as a latter version of one of Philly’s finest harmony outfits ‘The Intrigues’ in the 360 Lounge of The Parx Casino. The b-side of this single features the now familiar “Didn’t We Almost Make It” a previously unissued 1979 recording that gaine its initial release as the opening track on the Coalition’s previous unissued album project “Colour Me Blue” (SJLP 5006) released during November of 2013. Although the whole of this acclaimed album received extensive airplay it was the opening song “Didn’t We Almost Make It” that really caught DJ’s and radio listeners imagination and prompted callers to beg the question as to whether we (Soul Junction) would ever consider releasing it as a 45 vinyl single, a call that we hope has now been answered. A slightly earlier and different line up recorded this song Tony Anderson (Talent), Alan Williams, Bruce Fauntleroy, Milton Williams and Stephen Ferguson being the performers responsible. Group members left–Right: Leonard Deans, Tony McFarland, Bruce Fauntleroy, Alan Williams and Tony (Talent) Anderson.

Satans Breed "road Runner"jenges, Anyone Know The True Value Of This 45?
Probably not too much more but that is the trouble with something so rare, you have to pay a premium for something of lesser quality. I doubt one in decent nick would fetch much more than 3.5k but who knows? depends how bad someone wants the disc and how many want it. Lets face it though it ain't up there with the classics is it?

British bands in USA 1960s ripping off tunes
Rolling Stones claiming The Last Time to be their work but was basically ripping off the Staples Singers This May Be The Last Time, fortunately for the Stones the song went way back. They still took songwriting credits, wonder if anything from the release made its way to the Staple Singers? Then when The Verve used the orchestral version by Andrew Loog Oldham on Bitter Sweet Symphony the Stones sued The Verve for ripping them off resulting in Jagger/Richards getting songwriting credits.

I doubt it but if one turns up with the stamp under the label etc then I guess we would have to think again. I can't imagine them doing two runs on this release.

Anyone not buying from the USA?
The pound hasn't always been strong as it was running up to the brexit vote, speculators put around 8 or 9 cents on the pound in the final week thinking we would be staying in, but that said I don't buy much from the States anyway because of the postage, not the £/$ rate.
