Stuart Russell Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Can anybody help with a picture/scan of the cover of the Politicians LP on Hot Wax? Or any good shots of McKinley Jackson? They will have to be high resolution images as they are for Keith Rylatt's Groovesville USA book. Cheers Stuart www.groovesvilleusa.com
Mike Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Dave Thorly did a lengthy article thats up hereso maybe able to hekp its up in soul people articles section heres the url https://www.soul-sour...n-interview-by-
Dave Thorley Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Keith already asked me, unfortunatly McKinley has had a much traveled life and doesn't have any photo's of his past. I have the LP somewhere but it is in storage, someone else must have it. Dave
Stuart Russell Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 Hi Mike, In fact, the pictures are needed to accompany that very same article. Dave has given us the OK to use it for the book. I think Keith has already asked Dave for pictures. Cheers Stuart
Stuart Russell Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 Hardly anybody has! I'm sure somebody will come up trumps though. Stuart
Ian Dewhirst Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 Hardly anybody has! I'm sure somebody will come up trumps though. Stuart Hope so Stuart. I just checked with a colleague @ Demon and they have nothing for McKinley Jackson and/or the Politicians. A decent scan of the album sleeve might be the best you'll get. You could try Blues & Soul as they had a decent archive of old Press Photos and Bios etc but I'm not sure who to contact there these days....... Ian D
Stuart Russell Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 Thanks for that Ian. Blues & Soul might be a worth a call, although having trawled through their archive when doing The In Crowd I don't remember seeing many Invictus/Hot Wax pictures. Stuart
Steve G Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I have the album, from memory it has a green psychadelic cover with an tough looking McKinley on it.....Steve
Ian Dewhirst Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 I have the album, from memory it has a green psychadelic cover with an tough looking McKinley on it.....Steve I think it was the Parliament influence Steve......... Psychedelic Soul......... Ian D
Stuart Russell Posted January 19, 2010 Author Posted January 19, 2010 I have the album, from memory it has a green psychadelic cover with an tough looking McKinley on it.....Steve Any chance of a scan or picture, Steve? Stuart
Ian Dewhirst Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 You could have taken the shrink-wrapping off Ken! Ian D
Guest Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 (edited) You could have taken the shrink-wrapping off Ken! Ian D Ta Ian,found it on the net I think there is a picture of him on the inside sleeve of that un-issued triple motown record company album,not 100% though. Edited January 19, 2010 by ken
Dave Thorley Posted January 19, 2010 Posted January 19, 2010 OK, just got of the phone with McKinley. He has one photo of the group and one of the Just Brothers. But not sure what your time scales are, as technology is not their thing so they would have to send it to me by post. Dave
Steve G Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Stuart if you still need the cover let me know. I'll scan it. I only have a desktop so would have to do it in two halves. Steve
Stuart Russell Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 Stuart if you still need the cover let me know. I'll scan it. I only have a desktop so would have to do it in two halves. Steve Hi Steve, Yes I would still like the LP scanned please. Two halves are fine - Photoshop can do the rest! Cheers Stuart
Paul McKay Posted January 20, 2010 Posted January 20, 2010 Hi Steve, Yes I would still like the LP scanned please. Two halves are fine - Photoshop can do the rest! Cheers Stuart Here's a scan of the group
Stuart Russell Posted January 20, 2010 Author Posted January 20, 2010 Cheers Paul, That's great. I've got a scan now coming of the sleeve - thanks for everyone's help. Stuart
