My original copy of Wade Flemons is vinyl and made by Monarch with the MR stamp and delta number.

The Highland Room!

I bought my Sammy Campbell on Queen City from the Soul Bowl for £3. He had a small amount of them in quantity. I didn't know it then and only bought it because John said Sammy was the lead singer of The Del Larks. When it started getting popular I sold it to a prominent dj and dealer for £25, nice profit eh! Unfortunately it then started to sell for silly money! The up's and downs of record collecting🤔

We won't be able to believe anything people say or do on the internet shortly. And even when it's a true real person we won't be able to believe it's real!

All time Northern Soul Classic! "Unsatisfied" by Lou Johnson on the east coast New York original Big Top label on Vinyl issue. This is a lot rarer than the yellow label styrene west coast issue and the blue screen print styrene copies. This issue matches the vinyl white demo. Record is M- and in it's original sleeve. £65 + £4 postage to UK address.

Richard Searling tune from the Clifton Hall era in the early 80's.

I'm your Pimp" by the SkullSnaps on GSF was originally only on the USA SkullSnaps LP in 1973. It was bootlegged/pressed on a 7" single in the 70's for the Northern scene on GSF. It might have sneaked out on some foreign release or recent reissue, but in collectors circles it would be considered as LP only, to be an original.

I've got this Chuck Bridges and the L.A. Happening L.P. on Vault, for this great track that never came out as a 45rpm. "Head Over Heels"

Yes the same backing track, also the same on the Groovesville flip of "Friday Night, "Monday Through Thursday" which is really good!

"She Said Goodbye"/"I Found True Love"- Billy Hambric - Drum "Potion Of Love"/"Another Love"- Ambers - Smash "Dearly Beloved / "Do You Believe It" - Jack Montgomery - Scepter "I Don't Want To Lose You"- "Just Be Sincere"- Jackie Wilson -Brunswick Plus lots more!

That's a great set of records💫 And nice to see them pulled up outta the box👍

Yes that's true, but also most people were young, 16,17,18 etc and we just wanted to dance and have a great exciting time. We weren't audiophiles analyzing each new record. There was so much new stuff getting played, it was hard to keep track and sort out the good from the not so good! That came later.

I remember Richard Searling used to play "Burning Spear" by the Soulful Strings on Cadet.

Mr Manship has this Lovations "Heaven Told Me So"/ "Keep on Singing" record listed on his auction on Part 111 records. He say's this on his write up; "This 1968 release under the "publishers" banner of "PART III", which shortly after was promo'd and released on Foster Johnson's "Cap City" for wider distribution, that would lead to an impressive 4 x45s over just a two year period."
