DJ Re-service on record label meaning?
I'm not 100% sure but... the most likely explanation is that they released the record the 1st time around and nothing happened. Maybe a dj started playing later and it became a hit so they re-serviced the record . It could also be they decided to put out a different mix or a longer version of the song. It was a way to differentiate this new version from the original release. Here's the original shorter version without the harmonica solo.

Don't worry about it- I didn't know about the George Benson version. We're all here to learn something. First released version was Young Holt Unlimited's version of "Soulful Strut". Then came Barbara Acklin's version "Am I The Same Girl". The song was covered by Dusty Springfield and Swing Out Sister - I'm sure other versions exist.

Jeff Perry - Love..
Please disregard the earlier post- I've seen promo copies of both the 2149 and 2172 mixes on both black and blue Arista label promos. Both are legit.

Donny Hathaway Don't Turn away from love .
John Manship also has a video on you tube and calls "Don't Turn Away" an unreleased track. The video showing the Atco label used this King Curtis 45 for their mock up version -

The 45 was released with 2 different mixes- the black logo demo is the 2149 mix, the demo with blue logo is the 2172 mix

Favorite two-step tracks/artists?
I guess every scene has it's share of records that don't quite fit the mold. This is a Classic Chicago Steppers track -

Nolan porter- if only I could be sure
Producer Gabriel Mekler had already done "Groovin' ... " with Frederick the II in 1971. He probably recycled the track or it could even be the same song- the vocals are very similar.

The Triumphs - The Line up ? Okeh
This is a different group most likely related to this Memphis group-

Gladys Knight Motown 45 ?????
The flip side is "Cloud Nine" which would be the same as the U.S. Soul label release.

Gladys Knight Motown 45 ?????
I spotted this on e-bay- it appears to be a foreign pressing using the Soul release # on a Motown label 45. The logo looks a little off and I've never seen a ".... Motown Record Corp. , Michigan " on a label.(bottom right edge). Does anyone know what country released this ???

Anthony could never catch a break- his biggest U.S. hit was "Block Party" which was an instrumental version of his Salsoul 12" "I Can't Turn You Loose" .

I'd say Levi Stubbs, Marvin Gaye and David Ruffin would be in my Top Three with Bobby Womack, Teddy Pendergrass and Eddie Levert from the O'Jays not far behind.
