yeah would love to hear an archived version of this. if someone has a recording they could mp3, they could upload to divshare or some other side for free.

what would you like to give him?

They don't have the same backing track. One of them recreated the backing track of the other one. It was pretty much "stolen" though even though it's not the same recording.

Jessica records and all its artists are milwaukee.

so if someone were to post the identities of the unidentified "unknowns" in this thread, what would the consequences be?

Paypal almost always sides with the buyer. I'm on a message board consisting of mostly sellers and there are constant threads on chargebacks, etc. Apparently there is no US Mail service you can use to avoid a chargeback, you would have to use DHL or something. Someone posted a long story about how he won a chargeback for the first time, apparently you have to lose first then appeal and do all sorts of crazy things.

isn't this a known funk record?

I'm not saying you deserve to lose. I'm saying you will lose. You could have a video of yourself handing the package to him in person with him opening it, inspecting it, and playing it and saying "it's just as described". You will still lose.

There are good "unknown" 60s northern records btw...

the ballad on the harper bros is just okay imo, very doowoppy. not well known though.

There was a fairly big hit on IPG -- Jay Wiggins "Sad Girl". I always assumed east coast because I think Wiggins is from DC / Baltimore. But that Dynels on Natural is an LA record. Obviously these are all just clues and not proof of anything, but I'm not sure either way.

who do you think's gonna win the paypal claim in the end? hint: not you

David Oliver had love tko out before Teddy but Teddy crushed him. it was mercury vs. philadelphia international so two majors.

that isn't fair. Terry Callier's music is soulful but it doesn't epitomize "Soul" -- it's almost as much jazz and folk as it is soul. Secondly, say someone was into southern soul music and didn't like terry callier. Would you say that that person is not a soul fan? EDIT: not that there aren't people who are into northern soul but not into soul, just that you can't judge them by whether or not they like terry callier

I agree with you, it's just like a decent midtempo tune (not that I wouldn't like to get a copy). Apparently the name is from the fact that it's a father and his kids.

I think it was a special for record store day

I give up in getting definitive evidence. I couldn't find a good way to search radio station charts either. It appears that the luther ingram is probably first though.

No clues in either deadwax, nothing in the deadwax on the smash 45 and the thomas 45 just has the label #. The smash 45 should be dateable because it is mercury though. There was a reference to Jamo in Billboard, but it was in reference to a 1968 tour (which I guess is more evidence that it was later).

OK, I still want to check the deadwax for actual release dates but this Bio of Jamo Thomas says it's a cover: https://www.allmusic....as-mn0001809261 I searched billboard and found a reference to Luther Ingram's version being #17 on a top 40 single sellers chart in the St Louis area on April 9, 1966. I don't understand how this is possible but Jamo Thomas didn't come up in a search.

I don't think that the Luther Ingram was first. Was it established above? I'm going to look at the deadwax for clues.

Hi Dave.Which fact are you referring to? Thanks.

If they couldn't find her daughters who had already recorded, they didn't try very hard. But somehow they got the historical details about a (fairly obscure to non-fans) singer who played at a club ali was at?

I don't leave DSRs. They're supposed to be anonymous but they're not. If you ever leave a non-5 certain sellers that monitor DSRs will block you. It also takes a lot more time when leaving a lot of feedback. If the only point of DSRs is to leave all 5s, I don't see the point in leaving them at all.

what pete said, but it stands for "detailed seller ratings".

It could also be one of those cases where the publishers were shopping around a song and it got picked up twice at the same time. I'm still trying to figure out how both Ace Spectrum and Bloodstone did "just like in the movies" in 1976 at like exactly the same time.
