Does any one know if Curley Moore "Funky yeah" was released on two different style lables for House of the Fox. I noticed mine is different from the one on funky16corners.com?
Does any one know if Curley Moore "Funky yeah" was released on two different style lables for House of the Fox. I noticed mine is different from the one on funky16corners.com?
The copy I have is a white label with plain, black, sans-serif text (probably a DJ promo). I am too lazy to scan it, but I found a similar one (pretend the yellowy background is white, which it actually might be):
Here is the second version of the label, which has all the same label info, including the distribution by Lelan Rogers, and is too fucking ugly to describe:
There is also a third label variation, which is found on the production Maceo & All The King's Men - Doing Their Own Thing LP and its related 45s. It is a feathery bronze-and-black little number that I am also too lazy to scan.
HOF 1 ------- Maceo and All the King's Men - Got To Get'cha / (I Remember) Mr. Banks HOF 2 ------- Dr. William Truly Jr. - Old Black Joe / King Is Not Dead HOF 3 ------- Keyboard & String Ensemble - Alpine Winter / same (?) HOF 4 ------- Big Al Downing - I'll Be Your Fool Once More / Gimme Good Lovin HOF 5 ------- Little Johnny Blair (really, Charles Hodges)- Mama's Gone / Easier To Say Than To Do HOF 6 ------- Identities - Hey, Brother / When Love Slips Away HOF 7 ------- ? HOF 8 ------- Maceo and All the King's Men - Thank You For Letting Me Be Myself Once Again / pt. 2 HOF 9 ------- Sam & Bill - Come On Show Me / same (?) HOF 10 ----- Maceo and All the King's Men - Funky Women / Southwick HOF 11 ----- Ray Roberts Experience - You Move Me / same (?) MH 1934 --- Curley Moore and the Kool Ones - Shelley's Rubber Band / Funky, Yeah
HOF-LP-1 -- Maceo and All the King's Men - Doning Their Own Thing LP (1970)
The Soul Lifters "Hot Funky And Sweaty" / "Brothers And Sisters" HOUSE OF THE FOX 1935
And this....
hows that lp?
Hard to classify this one.........some call it psych.....some call it funk and others just straight rock......
amazingly there is a second press with a different cover on the LB & J label that supposedly is a different mix and heavier on the funk but I've never heard this version.
I'd say it's an average hard rock LP with some funky leanings.

I love me some "Hey Joe" rip-offs.
