I believe their records were produced by someone called Sir Cumsize.

David & The Four Skins ?
You're not imagining it at all - it does exist! DAVID & THE FOUR SKINS: (Love Is Like A) Heatwave / Sweet Elaina (Breakaway 01) - if you want one, JM has a copy on his list for £20. Released in 1963 but, because of copyright issues, was pulled back........

Are Records Sold On This Site More Expensive Than Average?
Don't take it personally, Pete - there are some good friends who are exceptions to that rule - nuff said!

Best Soul Scream ?
My personal scream fave is "I Put A Spell On You" by Screaming Jay Hawkins. Just screams all the way through - according to a sleeve note, Hawkins and his backing band were in an "advanced state of drunkenness" at the recording session!

Defaced Records / Writing On Labels Etc
Just who was T E Records, or TERECORDS? The amount of records from the '60s I've seen with his rubber stamp on them, well I've lost count over the years! Any ideas, anyone?

Ovo Definition
Not if there weren't any promo copies to begin with.............

Ovo Definition
Being as they would have been issued within three years of each other, both would be classed as original. so what different with a UK 45 issued a few months after the US 45. Then, I guess, the terms UK OVO and US OVO would be appropriate.

I know mate - was just using it as an excuse to post something else!!

Defaced Records / Writing On Labels Etc
I hate defaced or written labels. Really brings down the value of a good soul record. Like the copy of "Hit & Run" I've seen - some idiot obviously bought it for her boyfriend and wrote "To Mike - love, Rose B " on it. Wouldn't give £10 for it in that condition. And that copy of Frank Wilson that has two names written on the label, yet sold for a high five-figure sum recently???? Beggars belief...........
-
Ovo Definition
Being as they would have been issued within three years of each other, both would be classed as original. As a result of the OVO definition, perhaps these words could be added to the Oxford dictionary? Ovophobia - The insistance of playing bootlegs and 2nd issues. Ovophobe - one who practices the above. Ovophile - one who collects OVO and nothing else. Ovophilia - the art of being an ovophile. Ovomania - mental obsession with collecting original vinyl. Ovotherainbow - way up high.

What's The Most Ridiculous Cover- Up Name
Lonely For You Baby by Sam Dees was covered up as "I'm Lonely" by Dan Brantley. Confusing, because this also exists as a separate 45!

"Gotta Find A New Love" by Willie & the Hand Jives on Veep.

Are Records Sold On This Site More Expensive Than Average?
I'm not here to do anyone any favours when it comes to selling records. I'll list them for what I f***ing want, take it or leave it. As I say, I don't sell records as a charitable cause - I want the best price I can get for them, without unscrupulously ripping anyone off. Bear in mind I'm not a full-time dealer - just someone who sells to make room in their collection or sometimes needs the money.

What's The Most Ridiculous Cover- Up Name
I can remember Pete Myles' legendary cover-up; "So Glad" by Bobby Fuknoze. Was actually "So Glad We Made It" by Nicky James on UK Philips.

Glen Miller
There's a third possible problem Pete - just imagine the crowd of people coming forward with their copies of "In The Mood" or "Pensylvania 6-5-000"! Oops - sorry, Minit got in there before me!!!!

Another William Powell On E-Bay
I'm glad the seller put a soundbyte of the B-side as well - never heard it before. Nice though - very much like Shake & Fingerpop.
