Guest Bearsy Posted October 30, 2009 Posted October 30, 2009 Does anyone know anything about these as in who the lead singer is and other members and who was behind the record as its 2 contrasting but great sides many thanks Bearsy
Guest Bearsy Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 Thanks for the pics, i knew who arranged and produced as i have a copy but was interested to know who penned both sides and who where the group members
Sebastian Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) i knew who arranged and produced as i have a copy but was interested to know who penned both sides and who where the group members I don't know the names of the group members but: "I'm Not Satisfied" is written by James Edward Gregory. "There He Is" is written by James Edward Gregory and Myrtle Elliott. I guess that James last name was where the label name GREGORY came from. Both sides on this 45 are published by NIMBIG MUSIC which these days is owned by Howard R. Biggs. He is the son of Noah Biggs who started the SHIPTOWN and HOW BIG labels. More info about Shiptown/How Big etc.can be found here: https://www.shiptownmusic.com/ Here is a tiny picture of The Dream Team (from the site above): Edited October 31, 2009 by Sebastian

Sebastian Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) Will dig out the beach music book and scan the Dream Team picture and post it up if I remember it. This is apparently James Edward Gregory: Edited October 31, 2009 by Sebastian

Wrongcrowd Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 According to the booklet with the Ol' Virgina Soul - Part1 CD, they were a group oh high school girls that won a local talent competion and got the attention of Frank Guida.....the notes only give their first names as Madeline, Jeanette, Evelyn and Pat...so not much help...though according to the notes they disbanded soon after recording "There He Is" / "I'm Not Satisfied"..

Great stuff thanks Cliff
Sebastian Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 maybe not , sorry I'm not at home to check I just had a look... and damn what an unnecessarily gigantic book that is! A great and informative read/look ofcourse, but the size and weight of it is ridiculous. Anyway... there's actually a different photo of the Dream Team in there. Here it is: Not relevant to this thread, but from the same book, here you have The Deadbeats of "No Second Chance" fame:

Here it is: Anybody got any idea where the arr. N. Johnson comes from? Could there be a Norman Johnson link? Kev Just gone through the Shiptown website and as there's a Showmen record I can see the link now. Great info Thanks chaps. Kev Edited November 1, 2009 by Kev Moore
