Here's my copy, but as you can see the labels are marked. Not seen many over the years, It isn't easy to find in any condition. I would say you've done well to find a copy plus it has decent labels.

Yes, a Monarch Delta 63114 a few other marks plus 427 approximately 90 Degrees before.

Looks the same as my copy. I will check deadwax later.

Thanks for that. It would also explain the labels. As is the case here. STYRENE VINYL

I wondered if the "Arp" Pressing Plant may be involved. Here is an IMPACT Vinyl copy with the "Arp" Matrix stamp VINYL However, normally you can tell from a scan, as the label credits are fully Left and Right justified.

Extremely sad news. R.I.P. Marlene.

Excellent read. So many memories. I too spent most of my wages at Groove City and then Soul Bowl. A friend had mentioned about Groove City during a conversation about current wants. l was hooked from the initial phone call and list. I have kept almost every list, mailer and purchase from that time. The lists boxed and in order. Only sold spare copies of records along the way. Sadly my friend is no longer with us but that friendship and conversation changed my direction as a collector for sourcing records. A few trips to Portland Street, Kings Lynn traveling through the night to get there by morning, but mainly mail order and the dialling frenzy already mentioned when the list arrived.

Not sure on current value, I have it on Soultown.

Both my copies are Styrene.

Sad news, R.I.P. Lesley.

Only had the one chance of the Stock Copy and bought it. Bought the DEMO around the same time (Early 70s), have seen other DEMOs since.

There's some information in >>> Refosoul <<< As mentioned on Refosoul, her vocal version was the "B Side" to the Instrumental "A Side" Sadly she wasn't credited first time around here in the UK, an omission that was put right years later when re-released. Your DEMO looks like a Styrene press. Monarch and "Bestway" pressed records in STYRENE, The Deadwax Matrix detail should tell which one. Here's a DEMO from a different pressing plant.

I can only echo previous posts and I have always been a 45 collector if available on that format. I first bought this on the MFP LP as it was the only way as far as I knew at the time to obtain Baby Hit And Run. Not saying that it's impossible, but I find it amazing to discover that the 45 may have been on the shelves at the time.

UK : I have the "DISCO DOUBLES" on Blue Vinyl somewhere too. There is also a black vinyl DEMO & Stock Copy for CBS 7463 with the new logo orange fading to yellow

Many Thanks for sharing this Information, It has long been a mystery to collectors.

Eventually found a Stock Copy a few months ago. Hence Update.

Notice that on Atlantic it is the B Side. Atlantic 45-2273 (A-8476) Teasin' You Atlantic 45-2273 (A-8477) Walking Up A One Way Street Looking at the Matrix on the Nola label. I wonder if it was the A Side Nola N - 708 (174 - 1205) Walking Up A One Way Street Nola N - 708 (174 - 1206) Teasin' You I haven't a Nola copy to check deadwax unfortunately.

Here's one of the ATCO Canada releases KAREN 1534X

Well I for one was well Impressed, a brilliant way to see in the New Year. William Bell in 2014 / 2015, still performing records like Happy and Private Number. Records that have always been there in my collection Nice!. Still performing and still got it.

Yes, like this one.

It is a difficult one to price Jerry. Couldn't find it on You Tube but it is a Variation on Karate Boo-Ga-Loo Theme or rather The Pearl.

I bought one £3 soul pack from Soul Bowl and this record was in there. I have only seen one other copy on ebay over the years and that's it. Sorry I can't help with price Pete, but obviously I consider this one to be incredibly rare.
