Soul Shrews

Well worth a visit to ole Jinx74es Martin (Hi Justin!!! ) Cheers Paul

Whoops sorry to confuse you Matt, the nice old lady wasn"t called Glynn I was clumbsily replying to Glynn Thornhills post. Love it at Rookys ..............last time I was there (Sept 08) a young guy was working there joined soul source during my trip on here as "jackspratt" if I remember rightly. Cheers Paul

Definately go to Rooky Ricardos 448 Haight St (between Fillmore and Webster) they are always getting new stock in, although they know prices on the known stuff. Ask to look behind the counter at the slightly more exspensive stuff (from 5 bucks and up) also if Dicks in the store he keeps a "good box" of stuff thats not been sold on the bay.......you may get lucky. Unfortunatly Glynn the nice old lady behind the counter passed away a couple of years ago. Amoeba Records is at the other end of Haight St near the park and is also worth a look lots of 45s from a couple of bucks Theres also an LP shop just accross the road from Rookys (the name of which escapes me) specialising in soul/funk/jazz. Chris if the shop you mean was in Mill Valley I think its closed now You can catch the BART(underground) to Berkley (& Oakland) where there is another Amoeba and a shop called Rasputins in the same street, I found the Amoeba shop there was a lot cheaper for LPs than the one in San Fran Near China town on Green St and Columbus is a store that sells instruments and audio eqiupment that also has a basement full of vinyl, again they're always getting stuff in so you may get lucky. Good luck Cheers Paul

Not seen it but I want to .................thanks for posting Cheers Paul

Check "lookbacks" Kieth seems it was the last................................no reason(s) given as yet Cheers Paul

The Soul Harmony Singles book lists them as "blue eyed" but I know the lead singer was black ('cos I've seen a record company promotional photo) rest of the band white. Only the one 45 listed (released July '67) Cheers Paul

This is the French release. Cheers Paul

One in sales right now! Cheers Paul

My Charles Mann LP "Say You Love Me Too" (Its All Over)also has the "building blocks" logo. But my 45 (promo) doesn't Cheers Paul

Aah .................gotcha Was wondering cos I've had records from soul bowl in green sleeves in the past too, don't remember the logo on them tho but that could be just me memory. Also seem to see lots of green sleeves in the States but obviously no logo. Cheers Paul

Dean Johnson summed it up for me a few years ago R&B= black pop Cheers Paul

But are these green sleeves exclusively soul bowls ?? Cheers Paul

Sharon Scott "Could It Be You"/"I'd Like To Know" (RCA) Cheers Paul

Thanks sitc01 "When Will My Turn Come".......................................... my fave Vibrations track Cheers Paul

''Working On A Groovy Thing" Cheers Paul

Dave Moore is once again spot on with his reply re Teddy Ren" For me the last days of "big production" 45s was the Gamle/Huff Philly sound A bygone age I reckon and one I was glad to live thru Cheers Paul

There were loads back when 12s first came out, about 3 inches grooves and the rest run out..................think it was just record companys trying to cash in on the "new" 12inch fad. So they could charge 30% more for the same record that was on 45 Cheers Paul

Whats the flip to Neptune 21 then please ? Cheers Paul
