UK only on Jay Boy and a great tune.

With Sharon's appearance at Cleethorpes not too far away , is this any closer to being released on 7" vinyl and available to the public ??? Can anyone confirm please ???

Anyone have one to sell please ?

Just going back through this old topic. Can anyone confirm whether Prince Johnny Robinson - This Girl Is Rated X - was released on Virtue? Or was it only released on Andee ?

Yes , I'm serious. Billy Harner on Sound Gems please. Cheers.

Don't forget the vocal to Afternoon Of The Rhino !

Think it was one of Don Cornelius's personal traits - he almost never shook hands with artists on the show. He would just climb up onstage with the microphone and start interviewing. Also calls Soussan "Simone" as if his first name is the female form of the word ....

Soussan obviously had an uncanny ability to win a person's confidence ... even that of Soul Train's Don Cornelius who deemed Soussan important enough to interview him on stage following Arpeggio's performance on Soul Train on 17 March 1979.

Perhaps Floyd Smith owned the Ripple masters ?

Only 5 noted on popsike and 3 of those were in poor condition. The other two were VG+only so the fact that the most recent one reached $585.00 US is probably not a good indication. It's not only a superb record but very elusive. If an Exc or M- copy came up for on auction on ebay today, it would not surprise if it reached 4 figures ($US) . But whether an ebay price is the right price is of course up to the individual. Apart from the strong interest in the record on the rare soul scene, there is high demand for this record from disco and boogie collectors; and there was never any original 12" release. And despite the fact that it clocks in at 6 minutes 12 seconds on the 7", the sound is loud and clear, and its on vinyl (not styrene).

Nice tunes. Any chance you can also get the playlists from the other DJ's for you to post as I suspect none of the others are members on here ?

The best ... version of Judy Street's "What" ??? Think you better start ducking for cover ...

Has anyone an Australian RCA 7" issue of Midnight to sell ? Or who would want to trade their Australian issue for a M- UK original on Ariola ?

Are there any alternative versions of "Somebody Stole My Thunder" ? By other artists that is.

Anyone have a Richard Caiton ?! Cheers.

Anyone have one in EX or better condition they want to part with ? Many thanks!

Could it be John W Anderson - aka KaSandra - best known for the single "Don't Pat Me On The Back and Call Me Brother" (1968) and who had some interesting LPs on Capitol late 60s and on the Stax subsidiary Respect in the early 70s. He started out in the late 50s with RnB group the Cherokees and (allegedly) wrote Aint Nothing You Can Do for Bobby Bland but definitely wrote Breaking My Back for Lou Rawls ... although what little bio information is available on him doesn't show any links for him to Detroit ...

Is Faith Gage also on Black Giant ?

Original white demo

UK or US 7" please . Thanks.

Cynthia, Was the band Quiet Storm connected in any way to the group with the same name who had some records released on the Tamla (Motown) label around 1980 and produced by Smokey Robinson ?

I hear what you're saying Pete but perhaps the copies of the LP that found their way into the UK were just existing deletion copies from the original press run which were sitting idle in US warehouses or store cut out bins and then just had the stickers put on them either on being shipped from the US or on arrival in the UK . Surely the cost of pressing an LP (as against a 7") would have been prohibitive for the bootleggers , and the GSF label itself had long shut down by then.
