Nothing desperate or defensive. And as for trying to throw ex moderator weight about don't make me laugh. There was no need for what you said, end of. A simple 1964, a few months after the Lp would suffice. I take it you already reported me to the mods to go with your countless other reports.

Balls to you as well you tosser, whats wrong with a civil reply or is that beyond you? I had it down as '67 for some reason. Either way the 45 was after the LP which in the US was a '63 release.

"What Did I Do" is a few years after the Lp.

Timmion, turn round for me is usually five days. Proper metal acetate and better quality.

apparently there is an alternate take and you can't tell until you listen, labels look the same.

Guy Hennigan played an alternate take of It's Worth Anything. Apparently you can only tell when you have both side by side. Can anyone tell me the difference in the labels or matrix?

Wouldn't mind a copy of the Lp once Ian is sorted if it is cheap?

Whilst on the subject of Earl Gaines, how do you tell the difference between the two takes off "It's Worth Anything"? Are the matrix details different. Which one is the rarer alternate take?

There is a cd out of his material (Grapevine) with decent sleeve notes with his recording life in some detail I think. He was a good friend of Dave Box so he might tell you something about him.

Better one of Clifford Binns...

Here's a better picture courtesy of Dave Welding. Read the La Beat CD, there is a bit about Edward's life in the sleeve notes.

Was Sam the first with RC?

I thought the same too. I will have a look if I've a decent Edward Hamilton photo tomorrow, these were a quick google.

Edward Hamilton.... Clifford Binns.....

You Got To Help me was recorded at United Sounds. Think Franc has the/an acetate. Here is a scan that was on Soulful Detroit.....

Andy Jackson recorded and uploaded... https://infinitisoul.podomatic.com/entry/2013-08-08T11_53_05-07_00

Surprised me that one Des, I have all the Driveller's Delights in garage.

Some great music in them there lists

The record never floated my boat when it was first around and that hasn't change since, it's average at best in my opinion.

I think he also went by the name of Johnny Parker recording for Ben Lee's labels in Philly.

Mace sneeked a look at Andy's copy

Credit where credit is due it was an Andy Dyson discovery. First played at lifeline around the time we we at the Bell.

Interesting reading Steve, many thanks. More please

It isn't always about us in the here and now, it is the legacy you leave behind for others to carry forward. I'm afraid I have to agree with Mark S, a lot of damage has been done and it is getting to the point where it is getting beyond repair. Surely folk can't keep on listening to the same records year after year? Did they go to a night club and hear the same top forty week after week, month after month, year after year whilst they had their 20 year sabbatical away from the scene they thought had died? They wouldn't have dreamed about it. Even the records that drip feed down from the proper all-nighter scene will dry up as many are getting totally disillusioned with it all and moving on to other things. If they want to dress in ridiculous clothes, some of the worst fashion items ever seen that is up to them, but sometime soon promoters are going to have to take a look at the bigger picture and introduce different DJ's and different records. There are thousands out there totally ignored, even from the era they claim to represent.
