    The cd release is I'm sure the acetate version. If Ady is reading maybe he can confirm. Will ring Gilly later if I remember

    I've recordings here of the acetate that Gilly got off Dave Hamilton. On the flip there is a take of the instrumental. The instrumental starts off and after 30 seconds or so it stops and the band strike up again but this time it is quicker with some backing from Little Ann towards the end "When he's not around, What should I do, should I put him down" etc The vocal on the other side is the slower one that Ady put out on cd. Dave Hamilton did make a comment to Gilly and Tats on the Searling cut when they played it off a tape saying that it was too fast and originally recorded slower (sleeve notes of Dave Hamilton Detroit Dancers).

    Booted on vinyl yes but can you say for certain that licensing wasn't obtained for the two cd releases?

    It's not just this scene...it's every music, film and art scene. You can get virtually anything you want if you know where to look, music, films, software....how many sat at their PC's are using 100% licenced software.

    I don't know the ins and outs of the industry but I doubt very much that any artist would be on more than 5%. More than likely a couple % for an unknown with extra for writing and producing if they were involved there. I would like to see the industry breakdown for sales of 500 discs bringing in $18.000. Pressing discs, distribution, promotion, admin etc and see just what is left, not a lot I bet Pretty sure I read that some of the Motown stars were on a percent or two and then Motown deducted money for touring costs, choreography etc leaving them with f*** all virtually. I do agree with the principal part and maybe recognition would come into it for some, legal recognition that is and not recognition at the hands of bootleggers.

    Did Searling know it wa by Little Ann and a Dave Hamilton Production as studio discs don't always give this info. It wasn't until Gilly and Tats were at Dave Hamiltons that it was discovered who it actually was. But what record company is going to take the chance on releasing a record that either failed the first time round or didn't even make release to a very limited market. They aren't really interested in selling a few hundred copies of any given disc......they want a hit record and most certainly aren't interested in vinyl. I would dare bet that if a record company was to release say 500 copies of any given record, once cost for pressing and admin taken out there would be little or nothing left for the artist.
  7. Maybe the ones with the stars on the SNTD side are legit re-press from WB after hearing of the popularity. Personally would go for the one with the stars on the legit "A" side...or the issue

  12. Doubt the likes of Butch and Andy D will ever stop collecting but there will come a time when he says enough is enough and quit DJing. It can be very frustrating for them to see others using their knowledge for own gain, be it going after sounds they find or certain records being booted or even legally re-issued :angry: The scene was built on hearing newies week in week out and I can't understand why that has changed and the majority want safe records and are happy for others to play boots and re-issues when there are collectors out there with the real deal who never get the chance to DJ...strange world of northern soul indeed. :angry:
  13. F*** the idiot box...too much soul to listen too, even when stopping in

    Thats the one...bloody memory terrible lately
  15. Probably "Ouch I've just cut me f****** finger" As for avatar it's the max size. The writing says Bro spent a most delightful birthday chillin' with his bitches.
  16. The originals also have a sharp edge to the disc, on the boots the edge is blunt.

    Found the mp3 and it's titled...err Unknown I'll have to ask Tim Brown as I think he was playing it at one time.
  21. Chalky posted a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    It's an LP ful of Charay stuff isn't it? Not sure of the label but it is cheap, or was. Anyone got a soundfile of the Cressa Watson to compare...mine sound s very much like Martha. Know Ady Croasdell been playing the Martha version for a few years. Kenny Burell playing the Ward Burton one.
