I would have thought it prudent to think hard about shipping from anywhere in the world right now. I haven't bought any records at all in the last ten days, and the last two I did were from Europe. Both would have arrived by now in the normal course of events but I'm still waiting. I imagine they will turn up but delivery times are going to be longer than usual, and that's even assuming they can be posted in the first place.

I would think that the CURRENT price for Harry Deal and Malcolm Hayes - or any other record for that matter - is a lot less than it was a week ago.. Discuss.

Aah, I can reply to myself ! I see the Shirelles info is already contained in one of the links above... I should have checked before posting so hastily...

I also believe, but am not 100% sure, that she fronted a 'fake' Shirelles outfit after she left the Ribbons which resulted in a 1975 court case...

It is, especially as one could get most of the original albums at £3 or £4 quid without having to look very hard, and only Soul Folk In Action or We'll Get Over originals would set you back around the £20 mark...and even the 1 disc of 'rarities' is hardly thrilling...and I LOVE the Staples...so if I'm underwhelmed.....

Will be interesting to see how this one sells; great music of course, bu it strikes me as wildly overpriced. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Come-Go-Me-Collection-VINYL/dp/B07Y4KVKSH/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=staple+singers&qid=1575989660&s=music&sr=1-1

Her best side:

And, for that matter, this lot too: https://www.discogs.com/label/692259-Soul-From-The-Vault

"I know that Discogs is heavily attempting to block them from sale (they haven't got it covered yet completely" They are not even close to having it covered.. look at this, bootlegs the lot of them: https://www.discogs.com/label/692572-Soul-From-The-Vaults

Whole programme very depressing, the amount of scumbags out there....hardly news, I know. Also, must be first time ever a Paul Kelly record - even if fake - has been seen on the BBC....

One of the greatest of all soul singers, and woefully underrated. Her music has given me hundreds of hours of pleasure. It was my dream to possibly see her live at somewhere like Bilbao but clearly no longer an option. RIP.

It sounds to me as if Joni Wilson is simply singing over the Parliaments "All Your Goodies are gone" original. Both backing track and backing vocals seem more or less identical on each record to my ears.

The cost / value of a record is never of any particular importance to me but it has just struck me that I have absolutely no idea what - if any - CDs are "in demand" and /or expensive....do such things exist?

Would be interested in buying this if anyone has one for sale. Thanks.

Hello, I'm after a copy of his 1964 U.K. LP on Columbia 33SX 1728 thanks John

The Power Of Attorney

"Any idea if the AGNL Chris Bartley cut 'since there's no doubt'?" Sorry, but I don't understand question...I don't know which 'since there's no doubt' you mean......

My book made the following suggestions as to the singers on the tracks below. I can't say for definite they are 100% accurate but they seem certainly possible : "Ain't Got No Love " - Chris Bartley "What Kind Of A Man " - Sidney Barnes " The Woman Who Made Me A Man" - Billy Woods

While I admire the concept, I don't understand the pricing. For example, the first release, The "Soul Explosion" compilation, is up on Amazon for just short of £34. You can buy originals on discogs for a quarter of this price. So why would anyone want the new one?

Great artist, love this super, witty, hugely funky, under rated side from 1994

Here's a fine new release which seems to have generally gone unnoticed: https://www.discogs.com/Nat-Turner-Rebellion-Laugh-To-Keep-From-Crying/release/13458663

The Soul Harmony Singles book references Elijah Jones as TNJ's lead singer.

I don't believe there is any link between The Tangeers and The TNJ's - two totally different groups as far as I am aware. Steve's Wand book does give more info on The Tangeers : he says they were Cora Boykins (replaced by Elaine Jones) , Bobby Covington, Richard Quarles, Earle Beale and Bill Hagie at one point .
