Northern Soul - Unissued Motown - Velvelettes

[icehockeyboy1]

Chipmunks meet Motown?  Sounds like a 33 played at 45.

[sevensouley]

this surely is playing at the wrong speed.

[metromonthly]

A friend from college put this on a cassette tape for me in the 1980s. Because the song skips at the same point (1:12), I can only conclude it was the same source.

[MotownMaster]

this was released on The Velvelettes Anthology

[SOULXCHANGE]

wasn't it booted on Tam-Town or was that spellbound MR&V

[theboyfromxtown]

@SOULXCHANGE

It was Spellbound

[elvispreseli]

Excellent!

[theboyfromxtown]

This is way too fast......

One of Norma's favourites and you can her as the last "loving" at 0:55

[JohnM007jm]

Hi Bread,

Magnificent post, is is Velvelettes - Stop Beating Around The Bush, first hitting the UK via cd in 2001....

Really enjoyed that. I have a few (4 or 5) of these type of acetates myself

Thanks for share, appreciated

[breadmaker99]

well done that man

[RareMusicDirect]

Took some memory refresing lol, Do you have any 10inch acetates.....I recall the 10" of the infamous Frank Wilson DILY is in the UK somewhere :-)

[breadmaker99]

I got shot of the buggers circa 1989-90, they did not fit in my box :-) a HUGE MISTAKE

[RareMusicDirect]

I shed a tear,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[breadmaker99]

A well known DJ has a few of them, and he often reminds of me my past folley :-)

[RareMusicDirect]

Thats tough !! At least you know they are safe. Having said I dont have any 10" acetates. I do have a set of 5 or 6 10" reference ones for GW Studios in Detroit, not great quality though,,,,I saved em from destruction and just need to check all officially released....

[breadmaker99]

Sounds extremely interesting Kevin, I love history, especially rare soul Detroit history :-)

[RareMusicDirect]

I think they were for the early GW releases, cant really recall without looking (they are at home)...maybe i'll look ; but as I say i recall they need a clean and restore really, one has 5 or 6 short version of an instro, not different but just retries to get it write...

Cheers
