"Alone With No Love" is really by The Contemplations and recorded in 1969!

"Never Gonna Let You Go" by The Jobell Orchestra on Jan was played at Blackpool Mecca Highland room almost as a brand new release!

Great info. So after reading that it seems The Contemplations "Alone With No Love" 101 was used for the flip of Rock Candy 103. But some of Rock Candy that recorded "I Don't Think I'll Find Another Love" had been members of the Contemplations group.

Isn't, Rock Candy "Alone With No Love" Dontee 103 really the Contemplations "Alone With No Love" on Dontee 101 from 1969? They needed a flip side for Rock Candy A side "I Don't Think I'll Find Another Love" so used the Contemplations track!

It was known in the 1970's and often sold with the other good Constellations "I Didn't Know How To" side by side on lists, for not very much money. It's just that "I Don't Know About You" was not in vogue at that time. Possibly if someone had played it in a venue it might have taken off! I remember back in the 70's, playing it on the home record player, it seemed a little too laid back for the allnighters, even though now it sounds great👍

Yes "Point Of No Return" it's maybe a better version of the once popular record by Dusk on Bell.

Both Constellations used to be £1 to £3 on the Soul Bowl regularly. There must be plenty of copies in collections!

"Sad Souvenirs" The great flip side of "I Can't Help Myself" by the Four Tops. There are lots of Motown hits with great flip sides!

rarenorthernsoul.com has a list out today with, "The Bounce" - The Olympics - Sue WI 348A. Mint. It is probably a one you already have, but I thought there is no harm in mentioning it😊

Good article.

Sorry I can't answer that, but does the demo play quiet/low-fi?

I once found a Martha Reeves "Come And Get These Memories" on Oriole at a car boot sale, along with a mint Stateside white demo with red A, of "Girl Why Do You Wanna Make Me Blue" by the Temptations. That was a good day!👍

Maybe it was because red is associated with stop, but green means go!?

Sorry but the copy in the picture looks like the 1970's vinyl bootleg. It's vinyl and not styrene. Original is styrene with the delta number.

From the start of the UK Tamla Motown label the demos where white with a red A. The issues where the familiar black label. Then as Woodbutcher says, they changed the demo design to a green label with a white A in 1966. The issues remained a black label. A UK label expert will be able to tell you what label number they where up to when they changed the demo design.

Yes it does, I've noticed that. It's a great record for most of it's running time, but I have always thought it seems to lose it's way towards the end!

Hopefully yes, as "Nobody's Gonna Love You" is a great record. Especially for the Northern Soul fraternity👍

Yes it's a known tune. I had a copy from the Soul Bowl back in the 1980's. It used to be on his Detroit catalogue. The other side is ok as well, if my memory serves me correctly.

Two quality Crossover Northern Soul sides. Original Mon'ca 45. Excellent condition. Looks and plays great. £120 plus postage to UK address.

Looks like the pen written dates on all three copies pictured are by the same person! Someone who is handy with a black marker pen! Anyone known a handwriting expert?😊
