I've heard even common "white shite" records were spun at Wigan back in the day including the Seeds, Human Beings, Bobby Fuller Four, and most were cover ups.
 
I don't remember those three being covered up, but they did cover up an Outsiders LP track and then bootleg it as the cover up name. I think the track was "Lonely man" covered as the Detroit Shakers - Please help me.
 
One record played back then where they missed the far better flip was the Dogs on Treasure. I just got Mick Smith's old copy off him. That is looked at as very rare on the northern scene. Probably cause you chaps bought it for the "Don't try to help me" side.
 
John never went... he used to supply most of the tunes, and probably sold it covered up to Searling, but when Richard first played it somebody probably instantly un-covered it. John also blamed me for the price inflation in the early eighties, ha ha ha, but it was him that was charging me the prices... bloody Jocks (Scottish).
 
I'd take a Strata label copy if anyone has one. Always got upswiped by UK soulies whenever a guy her ein the states had a copy for sale. A collector / pimp found one at a record show (crowded venue to boot) for $20.
I've always dug it, pre "Phantom Janitor" cover-up days. A total Seeds "Pushin too Hard" cop with buzzing saxes which seem to annoy many 60s garage purist types.
I managed to find the 1st, rawer version of the Deadbeats classic disc - issued on Richmond Sound Stages as the Dynamic Deadbeats (no official label name) but traded it off to obtain a wanted garage 45 at the time (about 10 years ago).
There are several other "undiscovered" tunes on obscure garage 45s that would garner interest with the northern crowd. To think of all the tunes I could break on the scene..haha
 
I actually started into this world just last year by trying to find new white shite to play to the northern crowd in Japan. I was living just a short flight away in the Philippines, but wasn't getting enough bookings cause I didn't play enough northern. I had by this time grown tired of the "sweetness" in soul music. I had been off into the rockabilly/surf world for twenty years. I started chasing things like The Avengers - Reflections - Kama which got played only a couple of times back at the Casino. I then stumbled on garage punk.... ha ha ha, at my age I did not know of it's existence ha ha ha.... and as luck would have it I fell in love.
 
Now Mike you have me gagging to hear the rawer version of "The Phantom Janitor". Is there somewhere I could do that ?
 
Funny thing is the amount of people who slagged off Winstanley for playing the Seeds, but because Richard played the Deadbeats (and he could do no wrong) it became an accepted classic.... I now think the Seeds is an all round better record, but still want to hear the other version of "No Second Chance"..
 
They must have liked me too... ha ha ha. I got away with introducing the Enchantments, Natural Facts, and a decht more white shite in the early eighties...

I dubbed the Dynamic Deadbeats 45 to CD before I sold it so I could send you MP3s if you send me a PM with your e-mail address.
The Dynamic Deadbeats 45 I bought was in the massive load of 45s purchased by two dealers from the estate of a deceased Florida collector. He bought out 2-3 radio stations in the 70s and just hoarded the 45s for decades - he was only interested in doo-wop and rare blues.
Ralph and Ken were the lucky dealers who purchased the collection back in 1996. IMO, that buy was full of better rare soul and garage 45s than the Ray D. load (which had multiples of titles).

That load Ken and Ralph bought was indeed fantastic. Lots of rare records from many genres. The Ray D. load had a lot of great soul 45s, but you could count the number of garage 45s on two hands. As a collector, I wasn't very impressed.
 
One issue with the Ken and Ralph load, however, was that the previous owner wrote all kinds of numbers and information on the labels, like he was a DJ ( which, apparently, he wasn't). Lots of notations like "Fast", 'Slow", ect. I'm still replacing some of those with defaced labels !
 
Stanco Rules.... I'll happily have the defaced ones off you..... specially the ones with "fast", "killer" or "pounder" written on then
 
Probably...... I'll just settle for The Tremors, Sands of Time, and the Savoys then...... no matter what he has written on them...
