Aye I know, it's the artist laying down the vocal in the studio.

Can those pasting YouTube tracks please add what they are and by who? Those using iPads can't play some of them within the topic so haven't a clue what you are talking about.

I think the arguement in this case is relevant. I for one didn't think we were talking about scene specific reissues but the original release and the only legit way to own when released before the tailor made scene reissue.

If you listen closely to some of these acapella takes you can just hear the backing track.

Little Ann singing "What Shall I Do" and the Prophets "(If I Had) One Gold Piece.

Without rooting in the cupboard there is a cracking Esquires LP.....is it on Bunky? Only a few quid as well. Sure there is an LP only track on it. Also Inez Foxx in Memphis, is one of the tracks LP only as well, good one it is too.

I agree Chris, the number of collectors and dealers using ebay is dwindling. It isn't a true reflection of what is happening, that is out there on the shop floor as they say, dealers sales done privately, lists, deals done in venues etc etc, IU bet these far out weigh any deal done on ebay. Anyone can go to popsike a drag a price or two. Why didn't Ricky put the one up from March to show how distorted popsike and ebay is? $183 on the 11th March 2012!

Tempests - Someday.

Like I said Pete I've never seen or heard of one being seen.

allegedly on a 45 although never seen one apart from the boot.

Van McCoy & Friends "Dancing" Lp - Help Is On The Way, Ain't Got No Love, in fact most of the LP. Luther as well as "Don't Wanna Be Your Fool" which is on a 45 theres also "Follow My Love" plus other goodies. Righteour Brothers - Souled Out. You have the superb "It's Up to you" for starters but there are 3 or 4 other great tracks on there.

Great show Bob and great selection of music. Congratulations on 10 years and keep em coming.

I'm also beginning to look more towards LP's rather than 45's, basically cause I'm too idle to keep getting up and changing the record.

I stopped using .co.uk because of all the boots and crap you had to go through, .com now getting as bad.

Which take is it?

Whatever your taste keep an eye out for the next few podcasts on my site. Next one is Ady Pountain and then three for Adam, all what they were playing early 80's right across the board.

Sonny Daye " Long long road to happiness" on Power is far better Frank Wilson.

I've never heard of 250 being pressed, just the 6 dies which were then ordered to be destroyed after Wilson signed his songwriting deal with Motown.

The one copy Soussan had was lifted from Tom Dieperro's office who I believe had it on loan from Motown. The copy of Ron Murphy's which is the copy Kenny got came after Ron advertised in the local press for records from people who worked at the pressing plant. Don't know of any other copy except for the unfounded rumours. As Steve says the hip hop boys claim was a wind up.

There was talk of Reg Bartlett having a copy but never seen any evidence.

£4.50 worldwide or £3.16 to Europe really isn't hat bad is it. It would cost that to go a few miles on public transport.

6 extra verses. Don't you mean 1? 6 verses compared to 5.

Think it is with the instrumental on the flip.

It was unreleased at the time although it has since seen the light of day via cd and 45. It has an extra verse in it.

I think it is in the records that 6 copies of frank Wilson were pressed. Which were ordered to be destroyed so if if there are more out there, where isn't many. Ann Robinson is actually Shirley Turner and it is acetate only. Jnr McCants there is at least two, possibly three?
