Never noticed that before. Thanks

Hi, Here's an original Jimmy C. Nashville Matrix stamp in bottom left corner. Cheers Kev Bod.

Green Door is also an interesting inclusion. I assume that it's there because it's in tip-top condition. Never been that difficult to pick up. Still, with Solomon Burke going for a massive amount the other month, who knows!! The Tobi Legend ISSUE will be one to watch. Any suggestions for a finishing price on that??????

I've also seen a few red vinyl Ninandy White demo's from europe and been unsure. Was there a legit red vinyl?? Cheers Kev Bod

Groovy, laid back stuff!! Marketts, Bella Dalena https://youtu.be/O2zHOghco-g

Here's a scan of the Boot (on top) and the original (below) together for comparison. Personally, I found it a difficult original to track down. I was told by a major dealer he was offered and took £400 in trades for a copy recently by a respected DJ. I have loved the tune since the 70's and think it fits well with the current fashion of funkier tunes. Cheers Kev Bod

Thanks for that Dave, Any opinion on value? I know popsike isn't the "be-all-and-end-all" but it comes up with prices between $300 and $850, with £1:$1.83 in 2004 when it hit $850 = £464. I'd be interested to hear. (p.s. wanna sell yours )

Hi Paul, Yes, I'd like a real one as well!! Just done a bit more checking..... Sticks Evans aka Samuel Smith was also a drummer as well as arranger. He was apparently a drummer in Joey Dee's band, the Starlighters.

Not sure if this has been covered before, if so, please post a link to the thread, thanks. I've noticed that there seems to be 2 label variations on KKC - Philly Dog Around the World. One credits "Stick Evans" as arranger and the other doesn't. Any information on this? Are the both originals? I know that the 1970's dark blue Boot has the dodgy sound bit towards the end but looks like a proper one. Also, what valuation would you attach to an original? All the best, Kev Bodley

Hi, Here's a scan of the back cover of the Hesitations - Soul Superman LP. Botton left corner there is seperate box with a logo and "A Pied Piper-GWP Production". It looks like a fancy "K" as a record deck playing a record. It is the same as the badge on the hat in the KAPP Logo so might not be specific to Pied Piper. Good luck, hope something turns up. Kev Bod.

This was definitely one of those "had to be there at the time" records from WigWam. Still like it for the memories. Also one that could not be described as "just right for todays scene". Also known as "Love Muscle"!! Enjoy (I think!) Kev Bod

Not keen on the dressing up bit. I don't think too many people can pull it off today. As someone else said, it kind of looks like an extreme caricature. But each to their own. Live and let live. By the way, here's an advert for some originals. I think I've got a blank order form from the Casino somewhere. Cheers

It looks like someone has messed about with a Brian Hyland demo of something or other. check out the writers and Stan Applebaum arrangement on the "Sealed with a Kiss" scan. https://www.45cat.com/record/4510336

Pulled this out to compare. Good fun this!

Hi Ricky, Thanks for the reply. I couldn't find any info. That DEMO going for about £10 seems a bargain!! I've got a tatty Brazillian copy (plays at 33 1/3 ) and saw an nice condition UK copy which I picked up from eBay very cheaply. Thanks Kev Bod

Hi Folks, Looking for opinions on the value of Shirley Brown - I can't give you up - UK Stax. Cheers Kev Bod

E.G. I didn't know about this Kim Weston - You Hit Me, track until Robb's post. https://youtu.be/KHlomLGgb38 Cheers

Following on from a post made by RobbK in the Judy Highes thread. There are Jobete songs that were recorded and released by non-Motown/label artists. However, perhaps some of these songs may have been recorded by Motown artists and could be lurking on tapes in the archives. 1. Can any of you list any non-Motown Jobete songs. and 2. Perhaps suggest Motown artists you would like to uncover an unreleased version by. 3. Have these archives already been checked over many times (in which case, end of thread!) I'd be interested at least!! (and my Motown knowledge is limited) Cheers KB

Thanks for that RobbK, I'll try to track some of those down to have a listen. Also, very interesting to think of the potential non-Motown Jobete songs lurking in the archive's on tape. It would make an interesting thread to list non-Motown Jobete songs. I might start one. Cheers Kev Bod.

What are you talking about Pete? That ship is unsinkable. Quality engineering and there's nothing to bump into on that route. Anyway, I hadn't seen the clip before and thought it was a groovy bit of 60's tele to highlight. The host reminded me of the bloke doing the presenting in the Grease film. By the way, good to see you yesterday, sad that we only all get together at things like that. Cheers

Just noticed this on Youtube. Judy Hughes performs both sides of the record. Former Judy Street cover-up from years ago. Interesting that it was added by Al Capps.
