do you have all versions of the wrangler ad cutouts?

yeah, the a-side of the sunshine 45 is an instrumental version of the capricorns on phoenix. the b-side is an ok midtempo 70s sounding female group thing, not fast enough to be a DJ cut though.

is this thread about fighting at events or songs about fighting or both? because I could contribute to the second.

I'm pretty sure there was one on ebay recently but it's not in cfrenzy or popsike.

this really isn't an odd item and there is a whole series of J5 cereal box records, I have a few of them but there are more. Obviously a zillion of them were made but not that many survived. another cutout disc soul cardboard disc that comes up are a series of wrangler jeans advertisements. I have the pirouettes doing "the wrangler stretch" on cardboard, a joyce williams wrangler ad on cardboard, and have seen at least one pop/rock example.

that's not exactly true, by '95 the rare groove / breaks collecting scene blew up, but it was LP oriented. The main 45s people bought were funk. So there probably wasn't that much interest in '99. But one of the first region specific funk 45 interests focused on Indianapolis records (e.g. as featured on the Stones Throw Funky 16 corners comp from 2001) so people were probably looking for that record soon after '99 if not by then.

I thought this thread was going to be about something else

I had a copy in 1969 but didn't like it so I sold it on for 2 pounds

Robb, look at the ebay auction which has the people listed and one is "Bonnie Brisker".

If you're going to get defensive like I'm attacking you when I'm not, why did you bring up the topic of that record? What did you want me to say? I explained how I got the record and it didn't involve any accusations toward you. Anyways, the other side of that test press sucks, it sounds like a totally different artist. I also got a test press from the same seller of David Sheffield on Stone Lady 003, but it has a different flip than the released 003. But it wasn't good. Thanks. p.s. working with lepers is the most famous / cliched thing that people do when they go do missionary work, Mother Theresa did it. It was not a random reference. I was joking that you might have been doing the charity work in a place without electricity and that's why you didn't have access to email. It again was not attacking you. If I wanted to attack you it would be much clearer.

I wasn't calling you out, just stating the facts. You could have been in the hospital for all I knew, or in a mission to india helping people with leprosy. I just stated what the seller said and did, I have no idea what you did after bidding. I'm glad to get it, but it was a little more than I would have liked to pay. Thanks.

pearl jones was also in the glass house

Are you talking about the Black Sugar record, which is on a Peruvian label? I don't really know much about latin records, except that this one is probably not that rare in Peru since it's on ebay like every week now.

other side of the joystick is killer sweet soul. is the westbound freeway the same group as on fraternity?

I'm pretty sure that a) this was never tracked and b) that's not the artist's full name...

also, in relation to the original query, I think pete would have to supply the catalog number, and I'd think the two versions would have different values (not sure what they would be). The slow version is MH6577 and the fast version is MH6578.

The two different versions have different catalog numbers but are sequential. Kenny Harrison of the group (who Pete S put me in contact with) told me that they recorded the slower version, then they decided they wanted to target the disco market which was blowing up, so they went back and rerecorded the faster version.

no he moved back to the US recently and got access to his old stock and sold off a bunch of stuff a year ago. Look here: https://waxidermy.com/bbs/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=37906&hilit=hamilton+movement the copy on ebay for 4k is the copy in that thread

yeah, although cut in the soul era, that tony clarke has 50s R&B throwback sound. Is that really in any way comparable to Hamilton Movement? Why not post the tony clarke in a house music thread? the previous copy that was up had to be Jason Yoder's copy (from Indiana45s.com) he found some of his old Indiana stock and while most of it was cheap stuff there was at least one hamilton movement. I don't understand how the Hamilton Movement has like 7 45s and this is the only good one in my opinion. I heard that the lead is Melvin Brown, who also sang lead in the Moovin' Soothin' Stone Funk Band. Most of their records are nice. But he doesn't sound Womack-ish on those so maybe he's not the lead on this cut?

this is one of the most thorough bios i have read, nice job

the "somebody loves you" side is awesome. of course i am not using northern soul as my rating criteria though.

It's an unreleased Stone Lady cut, based on the deadwax and the david sheffield record I also got at the same time. You bid me up on it and the seller offered it to me after they said there was no response from you. Thanks I guess. Deadwax is SL 11 and SL 12. I don't know what 9/10 would have been either but it probably would have been the last stone lady release.

Hi. As usual I apologize for the delay in putting my radio shows online. I have two new music shows online from the past two weeks. On September 2nd, I had special guest collector Elaine Wade play selections -- you can listen to her show at https://www.sittinginthepark.com/9-2-2012.mp3? Unfortunately I have misplaced the playlist she took the time to write out for me (which is strange since it's hard to lose anything in my clutter-free apartment). I'm sure she'll send it to me which I can forward to you if you request it (or I can include it in a future email). Last Sunday I did my own music show; I played some funkier tracks than I usually play (there still were lots of nice ballads). You can listen to that show at https://www.sittinginthepark.com/9-9-2012.mp3? You can listen to other music shows and all of my interviews at my main page www.sittinginthepark.com. Playlist follows at the bottom of the page and thanks again for your continued interest. Also, if you know someone who wants to be added to my radio show announcements list, they can sign themselves up at: https://eepurl.com/n7Qr5 I hope you enjoy the shows! 9/9/2012 Burning Desire - You must do your best - Charisma The 21st - I can't forget your name - Joy Billy Anthony - Right on - Tank ? - ? - Unmarked Keel test pressing Benny Latimore - I'll be good to you - Dade Soul Emotions - that's the kind of man - Soul Emotions and Company Edwards Generation - I need you only - Tight [i meant to play the other side but the labels are reversed...] Esquires - Everybody's laughing - Bunky Brothers of Soul - Try it babe - Shock Rayfield reid and the Magnificents - Treat you right - Ken-Tone 4th Generation - Walking on a cloud - Debroussard Del Capris - Our love (it ain't the same no more) - Silver Dollar Brother Scott and Co - Our love is growing - BSC Cloudburst - Next time - SMS Beige - Give her up - Loretta Coast to Coast - Paula Marie - Multi-Sound Cermakk and Doug Shorts - Love's gone wrong - Cherries Bonnie Pointer - I wanna make it (in your world) - Motown Something Unique - This feeling - Sheridan House

google makes it look like she did spoken word on a roy ayers album in 1998

i'll trade the rare one to trade if you have a cool group record...
