Above is the label for what is apparently one of the rarest records ever, Frank Wilson’s “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)”.
Motown producer tried his hand at being a recording artist himself, recording the single “Do I Love You (Indeed I Do)” for release on the Motown subsidiary label ‘Soul.’ Supposedly 250 demo 45s were pressed, but by that time Wilson decided he would rather focus on producing and he had the demos trashed. Somehow at least two known copies survived, one of which fetched over £25,000 in May 2009.
Because of the scarcity of the original single and the high quality of the music (it was one of the most popular records in the Northern soul movement), it has been championed as one of the rarest and most valuable records in history.
In no particular order here are some of my favourite tunes:
Frank Wilson – Do I Love You
Love – Maybe The People Would Be The Times Or Between Clark And Hilldale
Judy Street – What
The Jam – In The City
Edwin Collins – Girl Like You
Pink Floyd – Arnold Layne
Texas – Black – Eyed Boy
Lotus Eaters – First Picture of You
Rolling Stones – Paint It Black
Rodrigo – Concierto de Aranjuez
Al Stewart – On The Border
Ron Grainer – Theme Music from The Prisoner
AMAZING bargains for the UK!
