Many considered it dodgy and still do.

Mi-Val the label btw. The press was considered dodgy by many.

nowt to do with being a soul snob, can't abide the record, irritated me upon first hearing.

Yep we all have different taste which is no bad thing. It's just one record I hate with a passion for some reason.

One of the worst records ever. Just a few known copies. 1967 recording I think but wasn't released until '73 ish if memory serves me correctly. Big record for Dave Flynn at the Dome early 2000's. Terrible terrible record. The UK release you are on about is a boot.

Looks like an essential purchase. Cheaper on the Ace records site than Amazon as well.

Part 3....

It is him, he had most if not all the Shrine 45's.

One of them is with his wife, I forget which one. I will ask Mouse/Dave unless one of them answers here.

Second video.....

More clips to come as I get the time. Just trying to sort a podcast first though.

Detroit Soul Bandits - Don't Break My Heart

Something that might be of interest to some of you. Ernie McKone and Michael J McEvoy in the studio preparing the backing tapes for Darrow Fletcher for his visit to these shores. Here you can see them preparing how it should be done etc before the band is assembled to lay down the tracks. Both Ernie and Michael have impressive CV's both working with major recording artists, films and TV and Michael receiving nominations for Emmy's and actually winning one. Michaels homepage http://www.michaeljm....com/index.html Ernie's credits... http://www.allmusic....ne-mn0000805363 Thanks to Mouse and Boxy for the recordings.

The excel document I have for a database has over 20,000 lines I think? I have A&B on one line in separate columns though, not as two lines.

John mentions in the other topic of a second 444 acetate that he has, different tracks, and the one JM had. Post 26.

The link doesn't work here?

Previous topic and who owns it now and has done for years.... Scans from the topic....

I have the sound file at home mate. Just at pictures at moment, just been mugged at food counter it's definitely been discussed before. Pretty sure there's some soul city 45s out there. Something tells me seen some white soul city 45 test press as well.
