Chalky

Where does he say he's just discovered the best side?

Butch has played it recently......

First track on this podcast..... https://www.soulunderground.co.uk/blog/files/a9f336cb9bb8f6bcc3836a8f8d64bbc9-6.html

Suspicion and Forever In My Heart would probably be in my top ten. It would be hard to find 100 Motown as good as 100 from the best of the rest. There are some brilliant records from the Motown stable but the rest some of the stuff is off the scale by comparison. Ric Tic, Wingate, Golden World etc aren't Motown either. They were competition run by rival label owners. Gordy simply bought them to put them out of business and cream off the talent he wanted. Who knows how great those label could have been if it wasn't for Gordy's dirty tricks.

I also think some of those sold in recent time (Jackie Day) are the ones previously sold. Still a rare record, not that many turned up compared to Clara Hardy, Four Tracks etc.

Didn't JM auction one for about 500? I've seen a few go for 250 plus in recent times.

It was probably only really known to collectors as it hadn't had much turntable action at all until recently. Had brief spins in the mid 80's with Keb. I started playing it about two or three years ago, still do now and again.

Not from that find though as far as I am aware. John did tell me how many JD's there was and how they were divided, it was less than 25 if memory serves me correct.

There wasn't boxes of Jackie Day, there wasn't even one 25 count box if memory serves me right. You shouldn't believe all the rumours.

Will listen to any sensible offer for what is left.

https://collectorsfrenzy.com/search?q=betty+lloyd&search-button= Plenty of instances in the above link going back 4 years of the disc selling for over $400 and even $500 plus. The test press on popsike fetched nearly $1000. This scene doesn't live in the real world. The fact is that no one does any homework and can see a seller has quantity on a 45, Jesse Davis one example. Clara Hardy another recent example. They just jump right in, more money than sense in some cases some might say. The price might drops when people realise but once the stock dries up the price rises again....ala Betty Lloyd.

Re Betty Lloyd, apart from the one that was f*cked, popsike shows the previous 4 between 404 and 496 dollars. Obviously more than one person willing to pay more than it is actually worth

Does Bonio carry any clout with the kids of today? He doesn't with Ellie or any of her mates and I would imagine it would be the same for most generations unless you like U2??

Also called a storage warp.

Chesterfield was where I lived then Russell so the Winding Wheel was my local nighter. And yes a wonky church, The Crooked Spire.

Charles Love, founding member, guitarist and vocalist of Bloodstone has died in his hometown Kansas City. https://www.soultracks.com/story-charles-love-dies https://youtu.be/kMDjToMo6-M

Yes pretty sure it is the acetate of the boot. Sure it has been said before that Soussan used Allen Zentz publishing. There was an acetate of one of Soussan's boots from the same place on here in the past, picture as well.

Pete's copy is £85, decent price for the issue I thought.

this is the issue that I know off and the one Pete mentions..... https://www.saveltd.co.uk/june-jackson-its-whats-underneath-that-counts-imperial-1672-p.asp It is a lot rarer than the demo.

You should loom into it, you are losing potential sales. Not too hard to convert if you have the software. Ask Mark Windle he sold his book online, The Blurb.

Could have done without Bonio....did he ever record there? I could understand the Stones input. But if it helps get the message out then all well and good. Apart from that it was a fantastic documentary a real insight into the studios and what came out of them. If you haven't already you need to go and buy all the cd's Kent have issued from the Fame vaults, some superb music, released and unreleased.

Is there a digital version of this book?

The one Pete mentions is the only one I know of, the green on the audition copy is the same on the issue (without audition copy obviously), the rest is black.
