Reforee

Train spotting time. Has anybody noticed the difference in the album track to the 45? To my ears there is more of a female vocal on the album track just after half way when the strings and horns kick in, WJ vocals depart and a more predominate female vocal comes out. While there is a female backing on both tracks, on the album (Speak her name) the female vocal is defo more pronounced? would it be a quieter cut on the LP which makes this possible or is it a slightly different version/take? I know must get a life....was just wondering if anybody else noticed this considering it's an very old well known track? Dave

Steve Bloody hell mate it's your birthday for heavens sake!!!! Feeding us Soulies with "blasts from the past" must be some very unique way of celebrating? A one off even? Anyways Happy Birthday again and must dig out my old copies and re read! Dave

I am led to believe this label belonged to Zeke and had strong connections with Space,Kris, ,Ride, Progress,Movin and Kick Off. The Lynn Defino 45 missing side is "I laughed at mama" and if my memory serves me right I tipped it a few years back on here..........only for it to sink.....what do I know? another missing on the label discog is 7100 Zeke Strong & Wanda Richardson. " Every woman has a right" Part 1&2. I would guess the Orange label design ( although different spelling?) was the first issue I have never been sure what years it ran over and would suggest it went from the sixties into the early seventies . Not heard the Kenny D Freeman 45 but the Lynn Defino is a seventies release in my book. A great little indie label I've collected over the years with some lovely music on it not to mention a cracking label design! Strange Zeke spent most of his life in and around LA but died in Arizona? hope this helps Dave Halsall

Dave Not thought about selling vest or bag, but then again the prices realised on some of them old badges makes me wonder what price for the bag which has to be as rare as hens teeth, probably rarer than any record I own! now let me think...........5 original Wigan badges, one Original Wigan Casino bag, various Soul badges.....anybody got Sotheby's phone number? lol.

Does anybody remember these being sold at Wigan circa 1974/75 they also were doing a T shirt which has long since been lost. Dave

Chalky your a star.......

Pete, thanks for that will give it a try, chalky going to try and do it so if he can it'll be quicker than me!!! cheers

Funny enough Chalky my original allnighter vest was in it as well.

Yah alright you lot......but why the fcuk won't the photos upload any ideas? they went on Facebook ok so why not on here there must be some tech reason why not? HELP!

Why won't my photos upload from iPad, it's a bloody nuisance, will have to get back to you all on this unless someone can help?

This just came out of hiding in the loft. Needs some TLC methinks Photos a few posts below thanks to Chalky for uploading them for me!

Pete, wish you'd price them a bit dearer they may well be still available by the time I get on here to see what your selling. Just seen a long want ( of which there are a few, but not as many as the ones I haven't heard yet) on your current list that's already sold......... Ah well any day another list. Dave.

Pete personally I think the site is great, and any improvement could only be made by you if you want to be critical on your self. Just keep adding more records and info, because that knowledge that is in your head from years of experience of collecting and selling cannot be bought. It's a real pleasure to read record info like this, top site.

I haven't got one, but I have a few other labels like this....ie. missing info on one side, it is just a pressing plant fault. To explain..... basically two labels become stuck together when placed on the record during manufacturing and the top label gets printed with the record info. This top label falls off or is removed at a letter date leaving the record with a proper stuck down plain label. Most if not all labels are preprinted with company name, design etc so tey can be loaded into themachine ready for placing on record and over printed with record info. Simple really. Not rare as to value but probably unique in its own right, now if you had a different song on the blank label side then that would be another matter. hope this helps? Dave

3 hours to go.................. 365soul.com......12 til 2pm across the board

Still searching for a copy of this

If I had a rich family back in the 70s and had regular holidays in The USA I'm pretty sure I would of brought back at least 4001 records back I know my father wouldn't have suggested throwing the records out of the plane, cos I would of left the family back in USA to make way for more records! Too much crowing about what certain people DID for the northern soul scene , but no bloody mention of the singers, songwriters, label owners etc, who without them, they wouldn't possibly be who they are today and we poor mere mortals would have diddly squat! Dave.

That sort of brings new meaning to "breaking records on the scene.........." If there is a bright side to this heinous crime then for the grace of god it could of been a Frank Wilson or similar holy grail!, Feel for ya Pete cos of the sodding paperwork you have to go through just to prove its their effin fault. Had it happen once only to me and thankfully at the time our postie was used to records coming so when he was sorting the mail and noticed it somewhat bend he brought out a compo form.........now that's service mate. Dave
