Checked Popsick and saw 7 demos & 8 issues, way, way back it was all demos, you'll find that the issue generally goes for more money, usually a good Litmus test. That story BTW came from the arranger, the legendary Arthur Wright, who coincidentally later worked for the LA Motown office.

Ian Levine's Soul Packs ?
I just had a message from Ian Levine who was incredibly proud of the list. He wants to publicly thank Mark Dewell and says how proud he is of that selection at just one pound each. He also says that the new stuff from Detroit is quite different. If anyone wanted a new soul pack who had one previously, then it would be at least 80% different to the one they had earlier.

It's an original, was recorded in LA with Monarch just around the corner. Here's some trivia, the recording session started at 11.00pm and finished at 03.00am, was being played on the radio stations and going down well, then in steps Berry Gordy who told Fat Fish to pull the record or face a law suit, Gordy said it was plagiarism, sounding like "Just a little misunderstanding". Having just won a case against Curtis Mayfield for "Can't satisfy" they couldn't risk the business and did pull the record. Thats' why issues are harder to find than demos. Not a lot of people know that

Bobby Sanders told me the owner of Canterbury records was the son of the co-owner/CEO of Mattel Toys Elliot Handler, a plaything he'd bought for him.
