  1. Best and cheapest by far is 'Covers 33' https://www.covers33.co.uk/
  2. Yes and definitely in my top 5 too.
  3. One on Ebay UK copy mint, just ended at £54
  4. Poor misled individual! I've got one for sale for £399.00, any takers?
  5. I'm sure you will have but thought I'd ask anyway. Has anyone heard of and/or know a bit of history about The Freeman Brothers - My Baby on USA 'Soul' Who are they? What have they done before? Is the name Freeman synonymous with Bobby Freeman or Art Freeman? Thanks. update - just found loads of info on them, thanks anyway.
  6. Well I wish I could have found one over the last couple of years of looking for less than £50, every one I've seen go through the bay hits way above that UK or US. There's a UK on there now for £40 start I'll see what that ends at. I'm broke at the mo' so not bothered about making you lot aware of it.
  7. US about £120 and UK about £85ish. IMO
  8. Just found this about James Carr: James Carr came to prominence as a Soul singer during the mid-1960s. He has often been recognised as one of that eras greatest vocalists, placing him alongside an elite list that includes Aretha Franklin and Otis Redding. Born in Coahoma County, Mississippi, on June 13, 1942, Carrs family moved to Memphis when he was still a young child. It was here that he discovered music through the sound of Gospel, listening to artists such as Sam Cooke and The Soul Stirrers. In 1963, he signed with the Memphis label Goldwax, and while on their roster, released a string of hit singles, including Youve Got My Mind Messed Up and his signature tune, The Dark End Of The Street. His life took a turn, though, as he became a victim of drug and alcohol abuse, as well as stints with manic depression that found him hospitalized in a mental health facility. He had almost disappeared entirely when he started performing again on rare occasions in the early 1990s, often working with Tyrone Davis or Otis Clay. Carr had suffered from lung cancer for many years, spending the end of his life in a nursing home in Memphis. At the age of 58, James Carr died there from his battle with the disease on January 7, 2001.
  9. So was the 'Freedom train' and 'That's what I want to know' a one off style of record for James Carr? as I wouldn't call those deep Soul. Not disagreeing with you RobbK, just trying to find more out about him.
  10. Can't see the story of Brassiere holding much up tbh
  11. Yes sorry Arranger, that's what I meant to put. But how do you mean he had nothing to do with the track if he arranged it?
  12. Just got this through the post. Unbelievable that 'Bobby Darin' made a track like this AND on Motown too. One up to the blue eyed boys! Produced by 'James Carr' as well?
  13. Northern Soul Uk commented on Petedillon's gallery image in 1970s Soul
  14. Skiing in the snow - Wigans ovation - Oh dear! and oh why???
  15. LOL! sorry boba! Thanks to all for your comments, this is a great tune, just managed to get this copy recently and glad I did.
  16. Oh! I'm a real person alright LOL!, anyway, trolls can't type
  17. No, I didn't beleive it either, which is why I posted it on here for the experts.
  18. Kool, thanks, nice pussy btw
  19. I have been advised by a reliable source that the artist is actually 'Prince' or whatever name he goes under now? Don't throw yer bottles at me, as I say I have been advised that it is, and the 'PG' in D.P.G. stands for 'Power Generation' as in 'New Power Generation' as in 'Prince & the NPG'? What are your thoughts on that little gem then? Armed and ready
  20. Not Northern, but still nice
