Anoraks Corner

Carla, then Karen...then Bettye Lavette.

Don't think I've ever seen a proper blue labelled demo of any M-S number...apart from one's with a promo sticker.

The flip to the Karen 45 isn't too shabby either, 'Don't sign the paper'. Here's the WD currently within my sales pages.

Title: little frankie lee - don't make me cry - the great scott Artist: little frankie lee Track: don't make me cry Label: the great scott Info: this is the rarer local label before it was re-recorded for peacock. this also happens to be a far superior version...much smoother...well worth checking out.

'Awesome' is an understatement! Every home shoud have one and every Soul night should feature it.

Nowp, that's a Phillie label.

Here is a fine pair of Chicago Soul movers, both from the J.V. label (were there any other releases on this label?) The Magnetics is a super-Soulful dancer highlighting Johnny McKinney's sweet vocal, whilst the Frank Butler is an R'n'B style mover with groovy organ-work (also issued on the more common Ra-Bra label). Magnetics = £75 Frank Butler = £30 Both are in near mint condition...labels/vinyl. (Courier postage = £5 per parcel; UK cheque or bank transfer only...no Paypal)

Adding one more scan...another classy, sophisticated and super-clean production...dare I say cross-over heaven?! I have a strong vg+ copy (pictured) that plays with no problems both sides and deserves a home where it is appreciated...for a mere £25 on my site.

'David & Giants' plus the 'Oracles' have me stumped at present.

Mmmm...I have the Freddy Butler version down as 'Ed Wingate'.

Fabulous track...one of my early purchases and loved it ever since. I would scan the Japanese pic cover, but it sports a blonde female model rather than Marvin!

I'm rather partial to this Gene Chandler release: 'Baby That's Love'/'Fool For You'. Here are the stock and WD copies...mmmmmm WDs!

Aaaaaaaaaarigato gozaimasu! Debbie Taylor Hesitations Persians

Note I: there are two label designs for this one...both plain red with black text, but one has a logo on as well. Note II: their other track on the green Rapda label is pants (from a Northern point of view).

Spotted one on the shelf already over here...had to pick it up to see which label it was on and was surprised/pleased to see it was Ace!

Thanks for posting that Pete...genuinely enjoyed watching it...maybe others may wish to do a similar thing with their DJ box/selection?

Price 'accordingly'...and fortunately sometimes they don't check at all.

Just swapped emails with GuyH...he can't recall these two either.

Tangent of interest...lately it seems the shops over here have ditched JM's book and now refer to Popsike.com when pricing stock.

Johnny Honeycut Arthur Alexander - Keep her Guessing - Dot Big Joe's Ivory Brass Big Frank & Essence Lou Pride Hayes Cotton Johnny Hendley - LARRY DAVIS - KENT The Agents (one of my favs from Keb then Rob Marriott) - DYNAMIC THREE - DEL VAL The Ambassadors (I believe Terry found a heap of these at Global in Manchester) WILLIE HARPER - ALON Eddie Lyons June Jackson on Musette ? Gary Sole (Knight) was also played as 'The Agents', and the Determinations (King) as the Ambassadors, but these were Rushbrooke Casino sounds that spilled over into Stafford...as quite a few other discs did. There are just short of x600 cover up disc details over on my website >>> AnoraksCorner Cover Up List <<<...but 'Carol Anderson' and 'Larry Hale' are still doing my head in!

A few more pics
