So , just to clarify , Is the Astranaut copy or the Holiday inn copy the original version ? never seen either before.
-
Was there a part 2 ?
-
One of the Mirwood instrumentals that really did work was " Dont Pretend " Mirwood Orchestra? . There is that green label soul fox thing with another instrumental version called Pretention , but the one played at Wigan was different, more sparse,and altogether better. I dont think that it was ever available .Theres a Great You tube live Casino clip of this , very atmospheric and evocative .

R.I.P. Aretha , The Queen of Soul .

Very annoying that , hard to prove he's not telling the truth (but your gut feeling says otherwise ,right ?)I had a similar situation a few years back and it happened a second time with the same seller a few months later , forget the exact message but the second one was exactly the same as the first ,leading me to believe this was a regular move on the part of the seller . I messaged him and said I had had the same message a few weeks earlier and he immediately blocked me . .....But what can you do except maybe don't feel that you own the record until it is physically in your possession .

Seems like The Temptations are getting their fair share one way or other , my personal favourite piece of Temptations soulful miserability is " Since I Lost My Baby "

The Detroit symphony Instumental version was massive at Wigan in 1975 , think it was emidisc copies only at that point , i have a white label copy with a stamp saying ( ithink ) re spin records and the title , with Barbara Mcneir on the other side , from maybe ten years back. Would imagine these are around still for around £15.00 - £ 20.00 ish .

Yes ,it has to be Edwin for me , (were there any Ric Tic white demos of it ?). Doni Burdick s is also great .The rumbling intro heavy orchestration and backing singers combine with the vocal to put this in my all time top 5 .

Absolutely wonderful record ,often wondered about the rarity though , it was regular Wigan spin in 1980 for the middle of the night Djs , Gary Rushbrooke always played it ,I saw several copies at that time for sale for £25.00 , Three pressings would seem to confirm there must be quite a few out there (unless they were very small runs ) A s it is such a fantastic record , I mean who wouldn't want one ? ...probably demand has caused more of the price inflation than outright rarity (or at least a mix of the two ).

Ernest Mosely for me . The Female chorus absolutely kills it . Surprised the Sheppards goes for a few bob nowardays , used to be a throwaway disc , Tony Just in Manchesters underground market couldnt give em away for 40p in the seventies , he had loads of them .
-
p.med you .
-
Yes exactly , Didnt realise Tony Cummings was commenting on such matters before he wrote for Black Music . Could never really understand his take on things don,t think there were many Northerners that were angry and annoyed about what was going on down South ,don,t think i gave the South a thought to be honest , throughout the Seventies, E xcept when the vitriolic articles were printed , The only thing that makes sense is that they were fuelled by Envy.

very interesting article , thanks for posting
-
I Remember those charts well , looking at it today , it definately seems that it is more of an advert for many discs that were available for sale at that time (or were about to become available) .
-
Never heard that before , absolutely love it , thanks for posting .
-
For me it would be a clean copy of "The Cavaliers , Do What I Want " Shrine 119 . Very rare and such a heartwarming disc .
-
I am happy for the guy who sold it ,he clearly advertised 70s press and made no attempt to deceive .
-
Barbara R andolph , I Got a Feeling , another youth club/ early northern sound .
-
Could have been , Definately a Winstanley record , maybe he went cold on it until about 79 when it got regular plays ? love the record by the way , had a copy in 1980 , whenever i see it for sale now it always seems 20 quid more than i think its worth , but it s not getting any cheaper .

Standing in the shadows of Motown, a nagging question
Carty replied to Mal C's topic in All About the SOUL
I suppose it depends how success is to be judged , musically in my mind , motown ended then . There must be 100 motown classics made in Detroit for every one made on the West coast . As a corporation , no doubt they did fine , the number of greatest hits , anthologies etc that kept getting recycled right up to this day , the real Motown sound never went West. -
Whatever happened to Jaytex ?
