Gordon Berry & The Motortown Orchestra (Sport Records)
The abstract reality is rare and didn't really sell. They could have repressed the tony daniels after they ran out and changed the label at that time.

Soundcloud - A Great Temporary Alternative To Refosoul?
it doesn't identify it via the song title. it does something called "audio fingerprinting". see this: https://www.csh.rit.edu/~parallax/ basically you have to speed up or slow down the song by a little or change the pitch of the song by a little. or adding a significant amount of noise, almost as much as the track itself.

Soundcloud - A Great Temporary Alternative To Refosoul?
youtube does this too. If you wanted to get it on you would have to mess with the audio in some way to trick the audio fingerprinting. you can probably google ways to do it. or you could try divshare or megaupload or something.

The Ultimate Blacks On Hitstown Records I Like To Be
yeah, it won't clean up. but it doesn't affect the value given that all copies are like that.

Steepletone 3 Speed Record Player
I see those in department stores, probably not the best quality. Also, although there probably are some audiophiles here (not me), the last place I would ask for equipment advice is soul source. People on here buy destroyed, unplayable, cracked records, so the turntable doesn't even matter a lot of the time. Audiophiles buy mint steely dan LPs and clean them before each play. I guess if you are playing cheap records or beat up records it wouldn't matter if you got that turntable though.

An Unknown Cheapie For All You Connoisseurs
whoa, I never made this connection, but another seller has been selling it recently (listed in soul for some reason), the seller (who is a long time ebay dealer) is "Oceanblues". Given that ocean is in their ebay name, is that also a member of the oceans?

The Ultimate Blacks On Hitstown Records I Like To Be
very indemand with sweet soul collectors, I bet you got some PMs already. All copies have some sort of heat hazing and play with heavy crackle.

is the second one ja neen henry on blue rock? I can't find audio of it right now and it's too late to pull out the record and listen without pissing of my neighbors

Little Joe Roman
ok I just looked at the record in popsike, it's an ohio production and has counterpart publishing on it. it probably is the same charlie daniels.

What Has Northern Soul Ever Taught You ?
I'm using this as an excuse to post the most mindblowing version of a song with that title: It's Freda Harris' cover of Joe Simon. I don't really like deep soul but I can't stop listening to this song, it's so great, maybe it's the blues guitar or something.

Soundcloud - A Great Temporary Alternative To Refosoul?
Yeah, this is similar to using divshare. I guess one negative about not getting refosoul back up would be that if everything wasn't hosted on the site it might not serve as the incredible archive it does now (or used to do) as the external links can die. I think youtube is becoming the de-facto archive of all music. But that's bad because songs uploaded to youtube sound like crap and frequently have their speed changed, etc.

Little Joe Roman
charlie daniels early work was in a soul / r&b band that played around ohio (i guess george gell can give more info). His group was called the jaguars. I think they were not the alco group but were the whizz / paula group. you can see his name on the record here: https://www.ohiosoulr...dings.com/w.htm That doesn't mean it's the same charlie daniels as on the tuff 45, but it wouldn't be that unlikely for him to write a soul song.

Anderson sold to Japan. He had a whole separate Japanese-only list btw.

I Can't Wait Until I See My Baby's Face How Many Versions?
Sorry I don't have an explanation and I was really busy with anal. I did know about the different credits though, as I was involved in trying to license the dontells track and it somehow was in BMI in all different permutations of writers, it was weird.
-
Tracks Id Please
I think the track i was thinking of for the first one was Delores Howard on Master. But I don't own the 45 and can't find my recording of it and it's not on youtube. That's not the one you're thinking of is it?

The 4 Sensations (With Moonlighters Band)
I'm sorry I can't give you more input into the funk side, hopefully someone who knows the market can. There are some serious indiana soul/funk collectors who would have more of an idea, don't know if they read this forum though.
-
The 4 Sensations (With Moonlighters Band)
I think it's unlikely that the record is blue eyed given the b-side title. This record is fairly rare, but (at least for the sweet side that I would listen to), it's just not that great so it's not very indemand. i'm sure you know it's indianapolis and the same moonlighters that recorded on lamp / blue eagle is the backing band.

Tracks Id Please
the second one is doris troy - he's qualified - capitol the one that sounds familiar is the first one

Tracks Id Please
This one sounds very familiar. Is the lead vocal male or female? Is it early 60s?

El Corals - Chick Chick
thanks. the photos on dcsoulrecordings.com are amazing. he just uploaded a ton of more photos last week, everyone should check it out

Millions Of Records Causing A Fire Hazard
yeah, i wasn't saying the current warehouse wasn't a hazard, just responding to the post that was sort of asking why the shrine stock burned down.

I Can't Wait Until I See My Baby's Face How Many Versions?
I think it just came out as Justine Washington. And several other sources list it as '63, including one that says 12/63. It's probably reliable given that sue was a large label. p.s. This is still the best version:

I Can't Wait Until I See My Baby's Face How Many Versions?
yeah, he's also very difficult to get on the phone and I've never managed to successfully set up an interview since it's so rare just being able to talk to him.
