johnnyhotspur 9th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Mary Wells - My Baby Just Cares For Me (1965)	Agree with Roger, a strange, almost pointless re-release. I must admit though, I like this cover much better than the previous release and pretty sure the photo is in London.
johnnyhotspur 7th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Motown Memories Vol. 3 (1970)	Basically the UK version of 'Switched On Blues'

johnnyhotspur 6th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album The Marvelettes - The Return Of The Marvelettes (1970)	'A Breath Taking Guy' is a longer version than the released 45
johnnyhotspur 5th Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Soupy Sales - A Bag Of Soup (1969)	Yes, I actually own that 45 too. Also recorded on Motown by The Originals who do a wonderful version also, as I'm sure you know, edlongus.
johnnyhotspur 2nd Aug 2023		Vinyl Album Soupy Sales - A Bag Of Soup (1969)	A-side concentrates on Jazzy / crooner type numbers but the B-side gets modern and initialises that 'Detroit / Motown Sound'. Best of the bunch for traditional uptempo 60's Soul are 'Teach Your Baby How To Dance', 'Unwrap Your Bubblegum'' and 'Come To Baby, Do!'
johnnyhotspur 26th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Smokey Robinson And The Miracles - The Fantastic Smokey Robinson & The Miracles (1973)	In answer to your question Roger, Sharon is correct. I'll post some scans up now.
johnnyhotspur 26th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Marv Johnson - I'll Pick A Rose For My Rose (1971)	Quite a tough one to get in the 'Starline' series of Motown LP's.
johnnyhotspur 24th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Gladys Knight And The Pips - Feelin' Bluesy (1968)	'Standby' (sleeve) or 'Stand By' (label) that is the question?
johnnyhotspur 24th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Isley Brothers - Soul On The Rocks (1968)	I see they've still got the USA spelling of 'Rumor' on the sleeve but not on the label.
johnnyhotspur 23rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Solid Gold Soul (1977)	Shame about those 45s Marc, so you was into Northern Soul a bit in the 80s's then?
johnnyhotspur 23rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Joe Stampley - Soul Song (1973)	[YouTube Video]
johnnyhotspur 23rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Joe Stampley - All These Things (1976)	[YouTube Video]
johnnyhotspur 22nd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Johnny Johnson And His Bandwagon - Soul Survivor (1970)	Cover added.
johnnyhotspur 17th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Motown Memories Vol. 2 (1968)	Mary Wells - 'When I'm Gone' gets its first official UK outing.
johnnyhotspur 17th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Martha Reeves And The Vandellas - Greatest Hits Vol. 2 (1973)	I can't recall 'Sweet Darlin' being featured on any of their previous UK albums or on a UK 45? It's a nice dancer and got a US 45 release but got issued here in the UK on The Motown Sound - Volume 1 1973
johnnyhotspur 16th Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Diana Ross And The Supremes - Let The Sunshine In (1969)	Looks like Garrod & Lofthouse were trying out a new concept of glossy rear sleeves. This seems to be the first UK LP issued with one? It wasn't until years later that they used this idea again.
johnnyhotspur 3rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Dave And Ansel Collins - Double Barrel (1971)	Is this the only UK 'Techniques' LP?
johnnyhotspur 3rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Solid Gold Soul (1977)	Saw this in a charity shop today and had to buy it. I mean, who'd have thought Jimmy Radcliffe would turn up on one of these Pickwick releases?
johnnyhotspur 3rd Jul 2023		Vinyl Album Gene Pitney - Pitney Today (1968)	For the most part, this is a Soul album.
johnnyhotspur 25th Jun 2023		Vinyl Album Bobby Goldsboro - Blue Autumn (1966)	Bill Justis arrangement... [YouTube Video]
johnnyhotspur 25th Jun 2023		Vinyl Album Bobby Goldsboro - Blue Autumn (1966)	Good Northern dancer... [YouTube Video]

johnnyhotspur 25th Jun 2023		Vinyl Album Bobby Goldsboro - Blue Autumn (1966)	The only way to get the Northern Soul dancer 'Too Many People' on a US label. This is the Bill Justis arranged version.
