This is Pat Lewis’ sister on a great piece of Detroit produced by Herman Griffin. If you don’t know it check the soundbite. Flipside is a version of the song ‘Giving Up’ released by the players on Columbia then withdrawn due to the name and released as the Twenty Grands. B WILLIAM BRANCH SMILING EYES RAINBOW 203 M- 150 The original 1978 release of this neat happy-go-lucky mover has seemingly VANISHED – check out all the usual internet sources for verification of that statement. Yes the synth-ridden, nowhere-near-as-good 1986 update on Zip can be located, but not the superior original. C THE VIBRATIONS CAUSE YOU’RE MINE EPIC 10418 M- 150 Northern Soul that speaks for itself surely? The fact remains that whenever we set-sale this one the emails and calls to buy it are many and various, so here’s the opportunity to obtain it at your leisure. D BONNIE GRAHAM I NEED YOU SURE SHOT 101 WD VG++ 200 Investigations have found this top-notch R&B mover to be in nowheresville. And we are sure that many will not have heard it. Apparently really called Lavern Buckner, check out the soundbite. E HOMER BANKS SWEETIE PIE GENIE 101 M- 500 His first record on a tiny Memphis independent is somewhat removed from his raucous southern groovers on Minit, being a fabulous, mellow midtempo track. 30 years ago we had a handful of copies and have never seen one since. Certified as very rare and very good for sure. F TOBI LEGEND TIME WILL PASS YOU BY MALA 591 M- 200 Obviously another 45 that brings on the requests when we set-sale a copy. Perhaps here a more democratic alternative way, but also a 1 second cue-burn on intro that you should hear. Nowt’ to write home about, but nonetheless it’s there. G SIR GUY LET HOME CROSS YOUR DPG 102 M- 200 MIND Is it funk? Is it Modern? Well both probably and arguably this Virginia singers finest moment. On George Perkins’ label, the artist was born as Clarence Barron and had a career of half a dozen or so 45s- none better than this one. H BETTY LLOYD I’M CATCHING ON BSC 401 M- 250 Basically a one-box, one-time find, with precious few copies ever emerging outside of the clutch located 25 years ago. For a while that stopped spins but demand has surged for the 45 ever since. I BEVERLY SAVAGE HOW CAN YOU FACE TORNADO 1007 M- 500 THE WORLD A 1966 rarity that turned up first in the mid-seventies, was played a few times and then forgotten. Reason? Basically it has always been very scarce. Three years ago a copy went for over a thousand dollars on EBay, it was not only knackered but the last one offered for sale. J CHANTERS WHAT ARE YOU DOIN’ SSP 1002 VG++ 250 Like the previous record this one has been around for a long time without copies turning up. The group’s older recordings (the group was from the Queens area of New York) are cherished by doo-wop collectors and therefore any copies of this one may have been hoovered up before the Northern scene found it. HOWEVER, both sides are firmly in Sixties Soul territory and this 45 was their swansong prior to the group breaking up in ’66. NEW CANNONBALL 45 RELEASE! After the success earlier this year from the Italian boys, in the name of ‘Big Lee Dowell’, here is the latest 45 to be released – JONES & GASTON AND THE CANNONBALLS – ‘Do You Get The Message’. (A version of The Grey Imprint track). LIMITED STOCK - £25.00 PLUS £2.00 UK Post, £4.00 EUROPE, £5 REST OF WORLD. SECOND PAGE FOCUS 1 BOBBY BLAND POVERTY DUKE 407 M- 15 Superb midtempo, I mean, it’s Bobby Bland, how could it not be so? 2 BARBARA AND DON’T YOU KNOW THAT IT’S RESPECT 2507 M- 15 JOE ALL RIGHT Great midtempo, should be much higher in price. 3 PATTY & THE MIXED-UP, SHOOK-UP, GIRL HERALD 1570 M- 15 EMBLEMS Excellent piece of girl group dance floor action. 4 LAURA LEE MAMA’S GOT A GOOD THING CHESS 2068 M- 10 Stax inspired pounding S.O.U.L from one of the great voices. 5 THE SWEET BABY BE MINE ATCO 6601 M- 25 DELIGHTS Great female dancer with same backing track as the rare Tim Jacob on Solo. 6 MOMENTS SWEET SWEET LADY STANG 5054 M- 10 Yet another great dancer from this group. Got plays as a new release. 7 THE IMPRESSIONS SOONER OR LATER CURTOM 0103 M- 10 Two fantastic seventies sides back-to-back. 8 THE PARLIAMENTS LOOK AT WHAT I ALMOST REVILOT 217 M- 20 MISSED Look at what we almost missed..... a total, almost-over looked Detroit gem. 9 THE WHY? OVIDE 238 M- 20 ENTERTAINERS Great midtempo item from Skippy Frazier’s label..... In fact, it’s brilliant. Fantastic flipside ‘Po Boy’ as well. 10 MAJOR IV JUST ANOTHER LONELY VENTURE 619 M- 15 NIGHT WD Brilliant Motown, Four Tops soundalike, No surprise really when Micky Stevenson part-owned the label. IDEAL PRESENT!! THE LAST BOX! THE LAST BOX! THE LAST BOX! The very last dozen of ‘The Wigan Casino Years’ meaning that just over 2000 copies have been sold. The printer is no longer in business so a reprint is difficult/impossible to order. As a history book it is still relevant and always will be. So- ‘The Wigan Casino Years’ – a Northern Soul story 1973-1981. £29.99 inc. Post.
