    What exactly is a tax scam record?

    There has been a lot of digging done about them. This is an excellent summary although the list of labels is not complete. There was also a story about them in Ugly Things along with a story about the bizarre tax scam label 'star' Steve Drake. https://shit-fi.com/interviews/AaronMilenski In...

    The End Result (Yenta)

    According to another newspaper story from the time, the 3 kids in the End Result were 10 to 14 years old, so the kid vocals are real. Not the band in the OP pic

    Foolish People: clueless ebay record sellers

    This is a sought after record for the weirdness factor. The lyrics seem to be a Christian perspective saying that intellectually disabled or autistic people are children of the Devil. I found one a dollar box at a record show and two of my collector buddies were going nuts over it

    Record finds of 2023

    there aren't enough active viewers of this forum to make these yearly finds lists what they used to be. The best record I bought in 2023 was Jimmie Bo Horn(e) - I Can't Speak. not cheap, but much less than the $6k to $10K that its (allegedly) sold for in the past couple years. For garage 45s...

    High Energy Soul 45s for Garageheads

    In the wake of the Jimmy Seals post, this is the best record to my ears in 'no soul artists make soul records'. The record was advertised in the trades as Anka adopting the Detroit sound

    High Energy Soul 45s for Garageheads

    I liked that one enough to keep when I got in a collection buy from a distributor. Part of that window of time when Dolly Parton, Ronnie Milsap, and others were recording with pop producers and directed to the top-40 teen market.

    I've already commented on this band.....to refresh, we had a full story and pics as part of a planned comp with all the songs from Musicol master tape. The band also had a reunion some years ago and created a web page with more pics. I haven't posted it on BB as I had other higher priority...

    High Energy Soul 45s for Garageheads

    You all know the Purple Hearts version....in case you didn't know this is the original recording. I don't hear this as a soul record but since collectors (re)write history, it's been appropriated by the northern soul/club DJ as soul
