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

Rick Scott pointed out that there seems to be a lacking of info about this label., if its has been covered before I apologise and please direct me "Seems" to have connections with Florida and Philadelphia (Frank Virtue) Couple of scans to help ? Gene came out on Funk Factory (I believe it was first release) Discogs have 13 releases on the label

I have just noticed (20 minutes) ago on FB that Eugene has passed away Ady Crampton Interviewed him a while back, what an influence on the scene......forever in our thoughts Sir https://www.shinyl.co.uk/eugene-thomas-epitome-of-sound/?fbclid=IwAR1AY3k3ldS2kkyk0A9ABYHDwjvBLAgrfbGoUQUmU02ZzXFPBCBFlQfIySs

I have emailed him anyway ......here's hoping as I sent him a link of this thread

Is it worth a cheeky email to clarify, a lot of stars have sadly passed on recently and I wonder if anyone knows his status now

This is interesting so you think that the Curtis Williams quote on Discogs (comments section) 13 years ago was maybe A: someone pretending to be him or B: he was mistaken ?

Were these 2 labels owned by HB Barnum

This are the actual quotes from 2013 "Magic Corner was the Main Song the A side for Beita Woods. It ws released twice in 1967 in Detroit. Ollie Mc Laughlin closed his business declared bankruptcy and when to Atlanta to Stax Records a subsidiary of Atlantic Records. He re-released it in 1969. I'm C Williams nmarcad@aim.com" "Burrell and Varner did not write Magic Corner their names were put on the record label. Ben Knight wrote the lyrics to Magic Corner not Curtis Williams or C Williams on the record. Ben Knight put the words to my (C Williams) music. I was young and was angry at him for something so I did not give him credit for writing Magic Corner. I apologies Ben Knight" The people on this thread are far far more knowledgable than me so hopefully a conclusion can be reached

That's cos the missus made me do some gardening.....thanks I do believe that Karen went broke and Ollie through Atlantic repressed them on Moira 1969 ......interesting that all the sales I have seen say Karen was first

I have noticed a comment which appears to imply that this tune 1967 on Karen and repressed 1969 on Moira was incorrectly credited with writers The implication is that Curtis Williams wrote the music and Ben Knight the Lyrics Can someone confirm that this is true please ?

Don't know if you have seen this

There must be a postage lag here from the UK as well as I posted (international tracked and signed for to USA) 9 days ago (LP) and it left the UK on 31st March (Langley) but nothing since

Perhaps he had more than one daughter or her real name was Georgiana ? https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/473933560780381613/

I wonder if it was Jackie Ross on lead ?

Just spoke to a dealer friend of mine and he said "That concerns the guarantee on International Priority shipping, not the shipping itself": suspended the guarantee on Priority Mail Express International destined to China, France, Great Britain, Hong Kong, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland.

I agree

I believe she was in Jackie And The Tonetts

This has to be either a boot or a second (error) press, as mentioned before, not a massive demand tune All other releases by artist are on same label and have Rogers Not Rodgers

Why did I sell their LP ??? A true regret

Trouble is there are not many hot days here in Lancashire, maybe global warming will help 😀

I don't think any method will work properly as there are so many different "qualities / types" of vinyl, unless someone is really lucky

I have been digging around and found a better photo of Mary and Colin (RIP)

There's been a few thread here on this idea, I think it will do flat breads better 😀 Try this
