The CD versions of the two songs are longer versions than the 45's.

The Temptations - Forever In My Heart. Never Released?
If you don't end up finding a 45, it's available on 2 CD's- "This Is Northern Soul Volume 1" on Debutante and on "You've Got To Earn It" by the Temptations on the U.S. "Lost And Found " reissues from the late 90's. On the "You've Got To Earn It " CD, the sound is much cleaner sounding.

Help Please - Larry Hale - Once - Diamond
I'm almost 99.99 % sure that's a boot. Most Diamond promos look like the regular issues with the "promotional copy not for sale" on them. Brown and Koppel mention a white label promo with green lettering as a bootleg

Am I Missing Something Here - Everything's $999.99 ?
if he did his homework.... why would he start it at $999.99 and then take $300 ? Did anyone ever pay $300 for this ? Such a friendly guy too- very customer service oriented !

Bombay Should Be Right Up Boba's Street
He probably had a few Geraldine Hunts in his trunk too! There's another Flash McKinley single on Flute- "Jealous Girl (Guy) " and "Another Time".

Bombay Should Be Right Up Boba's Street
The first two songs on the acetate "I'll Rescue You" and "Millie" were released on Bombay. There's no release # on the label. Guess United wasn't carrying the label at that time.

E. Rodney Jones: R&b Time On Charisma?
This is really just Rodney talking over the instrumental track of Bobby Treetop's "Wait Til I Get To Know Ya" which is why the tracks were from N.Y.C.

Arctic Lp 1003 (August 67)
I can't comment on the commercial logic of this release but, those Radio Station comp. albums were around a lot in the 60's /70's. I've got two from WVON in Chicago and both of the liner notes say that the proceeds from the album sales were going to "distribute Christmas baskets to Chicago's poor". . So they might have been done as fund raisers for charities or just as a promotion for the radio stations.

Supremes V Christine Cooper
If you play the two back to back, I don't know how you could miss the similiarities. There's an interview in There's That Beat (#8) with Jerry Ross who co -wrote "The 81" with Kenny Gamble. He tells how he went to a record hop and saw everyone doing a new dance to "In My Lonely Room"- he asked the kids the name of it- found out it was called "The 81" . He wrote the song the next day with Kenny Gamble and admits to basing it on "In My Lonely Room".

Grooving At The Gogo - The Larks Question
It looks like a boot- Harthon release #'s were in the 100's. This might be a 70's release like the Body Motions "Puttin' You On" / "False Alarm" which has release # of 103074 .

Is There Any Sexy Soul Out There ?
Here's your answer from the lyrics- Bull Moose wants her "right from the start, Because her big, fat legs are so far apart ...."

Supremes V Christine Cooper
The 1964 has to do with when the label design came out not the year of release. Mar-V-Lus and One-Der-Ful also have dates on them which have nothing to do with when the 45 came out.

Patti & The Emblems Demo
I checked my demo and mine has K-11127-3 for the "I'm Gonna Love You..." side and K-11126-3 for the "My Heart's..." side. The Red A is on the "My Heart's ... " side. There's also a T1 in the dead wax. So- what's the consensus- real or boot ???

Jackie Wilson What Good Am I Without You On Brunswick
If you go on www.45-sleeves.com, they have the yellow Brunswick label in use from #55167- #55250 ( 1960-1963). The Black Brunswick label started in 1963 with #55251. I see a lot more Orange Brunswicks than yellow ones, I also thought your yellow label was a promo.
