Great post and thank you so much ..great to hear his voice again I shall raise a glass at the 100 club to him this weekend.

Great stuff !

Sorry Ian, unless i'm doing something wrong (every possibility) i still can't find sound clips. Any and all help appreciated.

I will always keep reminding you all to use your local indie shop (use it or lose it!!!).....£55 at ours!

Bless him. Happy Birthday Jim. When I listen to your shows, it still seems like you're with us. I did another show witch Marco and it got a bit out of hand at times. All very drunk with poor Jim trying his best to keep some decorum, Such an unassuming lovely chap.

Ian are there any sound clips available online of any of these tunes ?

Now thats the way to do it ! That looks fantastic Ian, looks like a collectors dream. Now, where do I sign ?

And cheap as chips as well!

Sorry to hear about Marvins illness and cancellation. Gutted for you mate when you've put so much effort into it. Hope you still have a great night [im sure you will]….. Best, Ivor

Mick, that's correct. It is one payment of $26.

Steve, No problem! The CDs do not come with bonus 45s. However, the CD subscription includes a 7th CD which takes all 14 tracks from the bonus 45s and puts them in one place.

Its a SoulSource trait for some of us Will. Does each CD come with its own bonus 45 or is it just the albums? I think its just with the albums but just to make sure..... Cheers

Mick, Sorry for the confusion! There's a lot of info to sort through there so I'll break down the important bits. The One-derful! Collection is a series of 6 compilations released separately over the next year. The street date for One-derful! Records is late October, the street date for Mar-V-Lus records in late January, and so on. The CD subscription makes sure you receive all 6 CDs (plus a bonus CD containing 14 additional tracks). We wanted to offer several shipping options since international postage can add up really quickly. For $26, you are selecting International Shipping with six individual shipments. Which means you will receive each release (plus the bonus CD) when each album is released. The other options have fewer shipments and combine releases together to be shipped together and save on shipping - these mean there will be a longer wait between delivery, but it will also cost less. Please let me know if you have any other questions. Will

This post has been promoted to an article Just been informed this is now cancelled

I love Bull & The Matadors "Apart of My Life" from Toddlin Town LP. Sad that it is so long before the release date

just spoke to will, I didn't realise a vinyl version is also available, yey

Tony, our engineer just sent me an instrumental mix of "Sweatin'". Here's a sample: https://secretstashrecords.com/AudioClips/ssr2004/alvincash-sweatin-instrumental90.mp3 Now what should we do with it? Maybe a 45 with vocal version on side A and instrumental on side B. Does anyone have a scan of the acetate? It might be fun to have the mar-v-lus logo for side A and the test pressing label for side B...

Andy, sorry about that! Can you message me more info so I can see what's up? I just cleared the cache in my browser and they're still working for me, but I want to make sure the links work for everyone.

sad indeed, got across the street and mr moonlight both of which I played out at the Wellingborough weekender. 2 top class soul tunes. Garry

Sad news! That´s one brilliant record - thanks Keith Money for making it a classic on the Rare Soul scene. And thanks Martin Gavin for tracking Bill down and making his story being known among the soulies. Heartwarming that Mr. Bush got to perform in Glasgow and attend Crossfire in London to see a packed floor dancing to his great song. Thank you for the music, Bill Bush and Rest In Peace.

Tony, Thanks for reaching out. I have been messaging with Dave. I'm going to talk with our engineer - I know the tape is a 1/2" four track, but I believe One-derful!'s studio ran two 1/2" machines and would sometimes dump final takes onto the other machine. I think that's what happened with this track (Sweatin' only has one take on this tape (the final vocal version), even though the session sheet notes list about 11-12 takes. There's a chance they dumped down a mixed version, so I will contact our engineer to see if we can isolate the instrumental.

Sad news indeed Across the street always reminds me of my early years walking down the stairs of the 100 Club with this blaring out Magic memories Al H

Rest in peace, Lenny!

very sad loss RIP Bill
