Soul-slider

Not sure I've ever heard it by John Holt?? Prince Buster did a version.... ..and so did these...funky reggae version... Also came on UK 'Explosion' (Trojan) 45

Mmmm, not sure what UK release your mate is talking about (TMG series? not one I know of) but the white label 45 came out in the late 90's/early 2000's with large USA type centre, of dubious origin . Someone may be able to clarify a 1970 UK release.....

Wasn't this L.P only ('Thats The Way Love Is) then put out on the flip of 'Lonely Lover' white label 45? Don't think it got an 'official' 45 release????

Got their second album through the post this week, 'Colonization' and it's superb, garage, psych and beat (also contains 'I'm Just Waitin'). I've seen their first album go for a few hundred dollars! Great group.

Definitely...if I knew your name!!!!

....'I'm Just Waitin' on Sentar. Blue-eyed (Philly?) outfit. Great tune, brought to my attention by someone on here who had it in his recent 'home' playlist. Made it my business to seek a copy out, cheap too! (at the moment). Has it been played out? Is it well known? It's not in John Manships book and it's a cracking piece of Northern Soul ala 'Garage' style. Written by T.Orlando who I guess is one 'Tony' of Dawn & 'Tie A Yellow Ribbon...' fame. He is not a band member by the way.

I paid £25 for mine. Previously unissued, so the only way to get it.

I dig the 'USA' flag design label, especially when they come in the sleeves (very hard to get!). Not 100% Northern soul on the label though, some great garage bands too. As you know, when they did release Northern tunes, they are some of the most sought after 45s in the genre.

Definitely £60 for Gene Chandler....at least! Like John say's. A brilliant tune with awesome flip.

Presuming they are the blue-eyed group who's lead singer was Joe Stampley? Had a lot of realeases on the 'Paula' label, some garage, some Northern stompers. Is it they?

sorry about that! I clicked my last post 8 times!!! I didn't think it was working.....oops.

huh huh

huh huh

huh huh

That's very true my friend.

I have a fairly rough copy that plays great. I've pm'd you ok.

I have a Radiants - One Day I'll Show You / Father Knows Best (Chess 1832) EX+ (one light surface mark). I live in Kings Lynn, you can always pop round and pick it up/play it if you're interested I've PM'd you. John

It's on the 'Talk Of The Grapevine' L.P (GRAL 1000). Produced by Richard Wylie, possibly around 1967.

Yes, Grapevine L.P only. Another quality track using the 'Going To A Happening' backing track. From Hestor's vaults, unreleased in the 60's. A gem!

More of an 'early Reggae' tune rather than a Ska tune. It's recently been featured in an advert I believe. Good luck in finding a copy, stonking tune!

Possibly Ian .....however, that is the 70's harder to get bootleg on styrene, good sound quality as well. That's the only 'End' 45 I have so it gets the sleeve (which came off 'Little Anthony - Tears on my pillow'...an early one with the newer design label and sleeve, plus the L.P's advertised on the flip are early one's too....Imperials, Chantels etc).

Here's the only one I have, pictures of albums on the flip.

I have a copy for sale. White demo, not in M condition though I'm afraid. I've P.M'd you.
