I have just heard that Hamilton has passed away, yet another sad loss

This was only available on that bootleg EP, (Mansfield, Notts, I think) is it the same mix ?

Not coming out of retirement.......but Eddie Billups Ask My Heart Robert Tanner Sweet Memories Bob & Fred I'll Be On My Way

I really should not worry We ordered (5th April) from UK seller, a spider man outfit for our little fella and it was despatched 6th April and delivered yesterday 21st

An absolute must for me (be warned the site is being updated for the release soon so don't shoot the messenger) CHUCK SLAY – ALL I NEED IS YOU AVAILABLE ON PRE-ORDER (soon ?)

What value would you put on it please ?

I believe it was an even bigger mess with labels reversed 😀

RIP Barney, another history maker of our lives

I think it was the Canadian release that had the instrumental on flip, if memory serves me right

It's been a while and after a little hunting I found this, could it be the same Norris ? https://www.linkedin.com/in/norris-r-singletary-54752833

I know it's not a Don Gardner like John Manships Cheatin kind sorry tale, but what a shame for the seller and you

If there is nothing wrong with the packaging, will the Post Office pay out ? as I HAD to show photos (of the Packaging) on my claim recently

This one ? https://soulminers.com/index.html

Really ?!!! Price history on both Discogs and Popsike makes it around £80 - £100 tops minty one sold last year for £24 NM

I think Mike would probably ask for you to post it for sale here https://www.soul-source.co.uk/forums/forum/4-record-sales/

Looks like a Craig Moorer scan from the Popsike sold item and he knows his prices It is a no doubt a rare thing..... as Soulman58 said 7 years ago and prices may have gone up, but rare as you know doesn't mean worth a fortune

I assume it's this copy

HI both of you Thanks for sharing this quality stuff and keep safe From me here in Blackpool, thinking of you

I feel good finding out something you didn't 100% know 😀, that's a first I assume you knew that Clark wrote a book (1986) and is / was a very talented artist It's about time you got yours done

I am sure you are correct, it was credited to LIonel (that was elsewhere) and just said Hampton on CD credit, thanks However as I mentioned earlier in the thread there is confusion anyway as regards credits

I apologise if this has been covered before and if so please direct me I didn't know where to start really. Here I guess, at the start of my anorak madness. I was checking out a CD from 2004 (yes I know!!! a CD) I got a couple of years ago by a group called the Sirens One of the tracks is called "Destroy That Boy" credited to Lionel Hampton (you won't like it, and I don't have a clip, but please bear with me I hope you think it gets interesting) It was released about 30 years earlier by "The What Four ?" first track here (you can listen for an hour if you wish 😀) I knew I knew the tune and most of you will OK, so next I then found this video of the same record on an acetate and someone quoted that it was actually penned (not my Mr Hampton) but Kirsten and Art Resnick and it states connected to the Detroit label Tuba After trying to stop my brain spinning I looked a little closer at The Happy Cats (not much on them) and of course the A side It appears there is some connection to Ivy Hunter (fantastic story here), thanks to Robb Unless I missed it it doesn't mention his "start" ? with Ollie Mclaughlin and a somehow connection to "The Happy Cats" and I was hoping to get some help in my quest WHO WERE THEY ? can you fill my "boots" please

I said I love this thread

45 cat certainly is split with the Drifters as a boot, thanks of info, keep it coming please, most interesting If The Gene Middleton is a boot it has quite an expensive purchase history on popsike https://www.45cat.com/label/andee
