  1. Alfie Davison "Serious Business" - used to like this as a new release, then, like a lot of records from that period, something new came along and the two week novelty value of the AD was replaced with some new 2 week novelty. - Never thought the song would dominate the scene to the level it did for so many years - after 3 months I was fed up to the back teeth of it - then it got booted, and booted, and booted, - Trawl then all up and send 'em to Wombourne.
  2. Well spotted - It is a different mix. Also it is in stereo, but I recorded this sound clip in mono because I had a recording problem with my equipment at the time - The vocal is on the flip side, again using this backing. I didn't notice for many years, but the acetate is slower than the released versions (I speeded up the recording a couple of RPM for this sound clip, to make it consistent with the known versions - The vocalist actually sounds better at the slightly slower speed, more natural). Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  3. A Totally Pointless Compilation - Even if it wasn't a Bootleg, the comment still stands. ....'cept someone has bidded ????????? Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  4. Saw this, think I might have bidded on it, but the crack put me off - There was talk on here a few months ago when some other John St John variation turned up on Ariola, probably the one pictured above. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  5. Just had a search and found the LP with "Banner Man" , but "These Things ... " is doesn't appear to be on it - any ideas which LP it is on ??? (banner man is Vol 2 with green cover) Interestingly, The LP does contain "Heaven Must Have Sent You" and "I'm Gonna Run Away Fron You", although what these versions are like is something I couldn't say. As to the Blue Sharks 45, think busses ... https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vie...em=260315083983 Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  6. Yes, that right regarding the Bobby Paris side, first (and therefore Original) UK issue of "I Walked Away". The HBB saw an earlier Capitol (re)issue in the UK - orange label from early 70's. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  7. I think what missing link meant was that it was that it was a genuine legal issue, which was your original concern ie "kosher" or not. However, it is not a 1967 original, but a mid/late 70's reissue by Capitol UK, of a US 1967 release. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  8. Don't think it was a mistake - If you play the Smokey / Miracles track "Come 'Round Here" from the same LP, that is also a different take - Quite a few Motown LPs had different takes to the 45, Jimmy Mack / at least two Jackson 5 tracks, probably others too Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  9. Apparently they were part Italian and part Swiss Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  10. It was Spiral Starecase Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  11. Maybe it was just the one copy I played that was off (Think it was a white DJ), and "assumed" the rest were the same. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  12. The Destiny release was the proper version by Rita & Tiaras , but badly mastered, it played off centre and sounded really bad. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk

    Here's a scan of the 9011 issue (from an earlier thread on here) the Promo would be white and black / same design as above / vinyl Bootlegs are turquoise and black / styrene. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  14. The other side is called "I Stood By" Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  15. Possibly Joe Vandiver (as in "you're everything" etc) Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  16. Also by Dana Valery , as was Jackie Wilsons, "this love is real" , also by Promises and DV Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk

    Yes, on the "United" label Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  18. I think , as Tony says, it was only the last few tracks that Tammi couldn't perform due to deterioating health - one of them was "The Onion Song". Cant be be sure, but "California Soul" rings a bell too. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  19. Promatics and Love & Brotherhood were also the same as Fuller Bros and Whispers, but what was the Suger Pie DeSanto ??? Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk

If you only buy 1 record this year - then Spyder Turner - I Can't Make It Any More - on US MGM is the one. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  21. Probably sold through other means (web site / gemm / etc) or not through the internet, especially if it was a popular item. Can take a while to update stock if it is listed more than once. Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  22. Essex Burning Emotions
  23. Cody Michaels / Liza Mae ( x 2 ? ) / Jan Snow / Michael Christian - might be others - there was a few threads about this a while back - Definately 4 uses of this track, and 5 if there was another Liza Mae apart from "Juicy Mouth" Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  24. Good Grief!! - The Four Larks - No wonder I knew it from somewhere - about FOUR WHOLE DAYS AGO, I played this to someone down the phone and consequently sold it then and there (Got a spare though for myself). Can't say I know this posted version though - Philly LP? - Which one - is it still the Four Larks - sounds very similar in vocal style, but not quite the same ?? Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
  25. I remeber that an early (Motown Based) Spinners track got a release on Australian Pye, presumably because the Australian company "assumed" it was a new release by the UK Pye group. - So it wasn't just the public who were confused, Even PYE thought it was "Their Group" Cheers Mick Holdsworth https://northern-soul-records.com https://motownsound.co.uk
