A great collectors label this with some true Detroit soul classics on it.

That blue sunburst design on the later releases is really cool looking yes.gif

If you are a bit of a 'completist' collector like me you also have to have the dodgy releases to make up the full run - there are some really poor 'party' records on this label sad.gif .

Will post up some label scans and soundfiles over the next few days, but to kick things off here are a couple of scans of two of my favourites on the label.

Louis Curry - Captivated/You're Sweeter Than A Cup Of Honey (M-S 210)

Cheers

Richard

Probably one of the lesser-known decent releases on the label and a nice crossover-style make vocal

Will post up a soundfile later - unless someone beats me to it yes.gif

Jason Steel - You Know Your Breaking My Heart/Suppose (M-S 233)

Cheers

Got both sides ready to go Baz but Refosoul is down I think.

Also got Family Plann - a slightly funky Jackson's style thing with a mid-tempo number of the flip. Will post those too later on.

Family Plann (yes, 2 n's) isn't "a bit funky", it's actually a riot, sounds like the best record the Jackson 5 never made with a kiddie lead vocal exactly like a young MJ, have even had it requested as "that great Jackson 5 record!", title is C'mon let's do the breakdown, same group later did some crap proto-disco on Florida's Drive label.

Hindal Butts - In the pocket on this label Baz

About as funky as you can get :thumbsup:

This label seemed to be owned by someone called Edward Kaplan who also seemed to own "Kool Kat" records

I dont know anything about him.

The production company M.S.K productions products pops up a bit on Kool kat and M-S 45s.

Obviously from the Detroit area - I Don't know anything else about this lot........Anyone ?

oh............All the 45s I own on these labels are styrene and pressed at the Coloumbia pressing plant in Chicago.

Whoever Ed Kapalan is he had something to with Dearborn records and produced Silky Hargraves "Keep on loving me (like you do)

Finally got this into Refosoul but can't work out how to do the clever link thingy now it's all changed - so heres the hyperlink for the time being.

Can anyone tell me anything at all about Jason Steel (also recorded on M-S as just 'Jason') please?

Cheers :yes:

I'll be totally honest, in my "blissfull ignorance", I'd have dismissed most of this labels repertoire other than 5 of the first 6 releases, but until now haven't heard the majority of them, and I must say the Lonette/ Blue Jeans item in particular is now a must have as is the Jason steel!

Good work fellas:hatsoff2:

The Strides - I Can Get Along (Without Your Love)/The Stride (M-S 202)

'The Stride' is the instrumental version of the top-side.

The WDJ is more common than the yellow issue pictured below I think.

Great Detroit male group sound thumbsup.gif

Cheers

Richard

I thought the demo's of this where blue??
