Possibly THE Rarest Soul 45?
yes . the client codes you are referring to are i believe those of NRP inc not Nashville Matrix. The Nashville Matrix "5" is NRP's number for Southern (who eventually changed their name to United and were in the same street as Nashville Matrix). I'm not sure this gets us any further...but

sometime the SO code doesn't appear on the label( when there is one) or in the deadwax. that's when the 5 and Nashville Matrix appear instead.

Possibly THE Rarest Soul 45?
just trying to add to MGM1251 questions and Chalky's answers. So...Forgive me if i'm behind the thread somewhat or the bit below is meaningless to the debate. I have a scribbled note (and given time will find the source of the note to give due credit) that; Matrix of Nashville (the company) made amongst other things, stampers for local pressing plants. And Nashville Matrix (in Italics) was the wording in their metal stamper. So it’s likely Nashville Record Productions Inc (Mastering) used those/that stamper(s). And we know Motown used NRP, as did Paula, etc. I could be stating 'the bleedin' obvious' to many on here. Equally, I hope it hasn't unwittingly sent you down another rat hole, or

Billy 'Stix' Nicks Motown Drummer RIP
Billy Nicks Passed recently Nicks and “The Rhythm Rockers” came into their own on the summer of 1954 (still existing and lead by Nicks). The original Rhythm Rockers line up consisted of: Billy “Stix” Nicks (drums, vocals, band leader), Junior Walker (saxophone) and Fred Patton (piano, vocals). Billy “Stix” Nicks played and recorded on Motown with “Jr. Walker and The All Stars” for the 1965 LP release, “Roadrunner”, on songs: “How Sweet Is To Be Loved By You”, “Pucker Up Buttercup” and title track “Roadrunner”. Unfortunately, due to record company and production issues Nicks never received documented credits or royalties for the Motown “Roadrunner” release.

Poll: Version Battle - I Got The Need
Chuck’s is like drinking honey with a touch of brandy. Golden and powerful. The Moments is like drinking chocolate. Smooth and rich. Spooky & Sue’s is like drinking champagne with a splash of vodka. Refreshing and tingling. today...Spooky & Sue get my vote.

-
let's start with the female "A's" - see if we get to the "Z"
unless it's already been done to death on a thread before... Female artists (singular) or Female (girl groups). Starting with "A"- your favourite-if you had to choose just one - how many could we list? for the list...Artist and one track. atb ken someone else can can take up the batton and move us to the "B's" when the "A's", etc, dwindle and fade!

LP only tracks?
sometimes "i don't answer the exam question" - forgive me if this is the case i this instance...but What, No 45's?: A Selection of Northern Soul Only Out on LP, a collection of two-dozen performances lost in the grooves before Northern DJs brought them to light. Not collectable, but a dozen in one place.

Is collecting rare soul vinyl an investment
that is a good question Benji. and i don't now know. You are correct. I do think it was about $5,000 in Sept 2017 [£3,800], ( although it did go up and down like a yo-yo in Sept 2017). I can only think that my math got in the way and i multiplied it or something. Either way... you get my drift. 1 BC =[$1] Feb 2011 – April 2011, could have been worth $6.180[£4,707) on 21st Oct 2017.

Is collecting rare soul vinyl an investment
just as a postcript... Gwen Owens -Just Say You're Wanted ( And Needed ) / Still True To You John Manship (sold) 2007 2017 Diff Assume similar condition £3,516 £4,250 +£734 Savings account invest £3,516 - Savings account withdraw - £4,589 +£1,073 Standard & not adjusting for inflation From 2007 to 2017 the average savings interest rate (crudely) would be 2.07%. It started 2007 at 5.5% and by 2016 was 1.23% I'd sooner have had the record for 10yrs OR i could have saved for 10yrs and bought it last week on JM, and still had change. By comparison though; 1 Bit Coin 2009 2017 (Sept) £20 £746,000 (yup...£746K)
