Top of my head, isn't it on UK R&B? No idea of value

Is it really Barbara English?

Check out this version, a couple of years before Jenny Wren, but unissued https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8WwkbwVjvk

A lot of record shops back in the day would order a copy of just about everything released, and there were many more record shops back then.

That's what I call a definitive answer! Many thanks, I know my listener will be delighted to know this too. Nick

Thanks for your excellent suggestions, alley man sounds good to me. cheers Nick

Does anyone know what Willie Tee sings towards the end of Teasing You? One of my listeners (6 Towns Radio, I'm on air now) thinks he says something about the Isle of Man - I have my doubts to say the least, but I don't have any better ideas.

I believe the guy in the Notations is a different Clifford Curry, confusingly!

Great info, many thanks Steve. I can promise you that Tommy is safe from the attentions of PUB (for now, anyway!)

What's the story behind Tommy Hunt "Jerkin' around". Does anyone know who it's really by - is it the Discotays? And is there a vocal version? Cheers Nick

You often see the name "Philip Swern" on 70s UK reggae recordings, as producer - surely must be the same guy

That's really interesting, Steve, many thanks

Sorry to dig this thread up again, but I wondered if anyone knows how this came about - 2 well-known tracks by the Packers (a hit in the states) put out under different artist name, different track titles, different composer credits and claiming to be a Lupine production. Could it have been a pressing plant cock-up, or was there something dodgy going on?

First time I spent more than the current price for a new single - 1968, 10/- for Edwin Starr "Headline news" from a local DJ in Bridgnorth. I suspect he knew it was about to be reissued in a couple of weeks, but it opened the floodgates for me. And I still have that copy

There's a Facebook group called "rare British soul releases" that would be worth trying

Have I missed it, or has nobody mentioned "Two can have a party"?

Likewise chuffed to see Soul Allnighter back, just heard Frankie Beverly, Syl Johnson, Dee Irwin, Mighty Pope, Azie Mortimer, Johnny Bragg & Letoy Hutson while eating my dinner! Definitely recommended

From memory, it's on "The exciting Wilson Pickett" album, 1966/7

I was playing this today - they also got the B sides wrong. The black Chess flip is supposed to be "Jamo soul" but it plays "Snake hip Mama", the other side of I spy. Anyone know the story behind this?

My mistake, checked the shelves, both got 3 tracks. So anyone know what I was thinking of - I'm sure there's a UK 45 with a 2 track/1 track flip?

I think the black vinyl copies had one B side track but the red vinyl had two

I started collecting in '68, and you could still order both of these from your local record shop. Everyone seemed to gave them back then

I've occasionally bought records from Reddington's by mail - they still send them out wrapped in corrugated cardboard instead of proper stiffening. You'd think they'd have learned after all these years

Garland Green "Jealous kind of fellow" Isleys "Soul on the rocks" Esquires "Get on up and get away" and already nominated but I agree...Impressions "This is my country"

I never heard that name before - just Farmer Carl or Carl Dene - but it sounds like it could be him. Dene was a nom de turntable, I think his real name is Woodruff.
