  1. Huh? I just listened to it for the third time!
  2. Here's Willie Tee on U.K. Atlantic without any discernible glitch at the start.
  3. Surely those Willie Tee blips are just in THIS youtube recording, no? I just checked out two other youtube versions of the same record (one on U.K. Atlantic) and they are fine.
  4. Boy, am I confused. I was still thinking about Benny Latimore. Okay, now I get it.
  5. Wait, Pete, are you saying that copies exist that don't have the flaw? All of mine have, and the random youtube clip I found to illustrate my point....
  6. Surely he means the Jimmy Bo Horne on Dig, not the one on Dade that we were discussing, right?
  7. Thought of this while reading another thread. What happens at 1:45 here? Sounds like the tape slows down for half a second. All copies of the single have it. A production mistake or an inexplicable bit of vocal gymnastics?
  8. Common label, rare record: Appointments on De-Lite.
  9. I am willing to be talked out of my ultra-ultra-scarce Benny Latimore on Dade--keeping in mind, of course, its ultra-ultra-scarcity.
  10. Deacon Lee and the Prophets on Revue?
  11. That one is much harder than their others on the label, yeah. The sought-after one is the most common, right? I've seen this only once (and bought it); when I'm in Detroit I see dozens of copies of the "northern" one.
  12. Really? I've lived in New York for 25 years, attended and participated in a gazillion soul nights, and have never heard of that one! Where is/was it??
  13. My point is that everyone who's saying "It doesn't matter if you're gay or straight!" is completely missing the point of the thread. Of COURSE it doesn't matter; that's a given. This thread was about sociology and history and the interweaving of different subcultures. It's obviously impossible to discuss anything like that here.
  14. Wow, I've seen people missing the point before, but this thread really takes the cake.
  15. Excellent post. Very well put.
  16. There's really nothing rare on Atlantic/Atco?
  17. I think one of the scarcer '60s Wands is Gary Weston, Red Feather Basket/I Should Say Not. It's not soul, though...more like wild Coasters-style novelty R&B.
  18. I amongst us own this 45! It has to be in my top 5 deep soul records. Spine-tingling. I think No. 1 is the aforementioned Curtis King. Who amongst us owns THAT?
  19. Of course, we all know that the opposite is true, too: A completely trashed-looking styrene record will often play nearly perfectly, while a brand-new vinyl record will have crackle and hiss. I find that Stax vinyl records, to cite but one example, often have this problem. Also: I've heard cue-burned, distorted styrene records play just fine after the stereo needle was swapped out for a mono one, which rides the grooves in a different place.
  20. I got my copy of the rare Joe Hicks from a VERY well known U.K. dealer out of his catalogue for maybe £10 at the most 15 or so years ago.
  21. Rarest I know of on Virtue (not an acetate but an actual 45 release) is Little George and the Mixed Generation.
  22. Jeanette Nellis on Chess? Yiddish Soul Brother Amnon on Chess? Curtis King on Ronze (not a big label, 'tis true) Tommy Dent on Cobblestone
  23. I sold my copy to someone on here a few years ago, too.
  24. It's a pretty cool instrumental. Rarely see it for sale these days, but as Bob said, if it does come up you probably won't have much competition.
