Kris Holmes Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 I'm gonna learn something this week, I don't think I've ever heard of this label. What happened to the Fania label of the week? That could have been fun, not very northern though Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

That could have been fun, not very northern though It was Mossy I think who started the Fania label of the week.

Guest Matt Male Posted June 20, 2010 Share Posted June 20, 2010 (edited) Small but perfectly formed label. Two of my favourites. I'll post a load of scans when i can sort out my camera. Daisy Burris - Take The Same Thing - King Coleman - Get On Board - Just for info. The 7000 numbers tend to be more rock and roll type tunes, but the 3000 numbers are where all the soul and R&B is that we play out.

Guest Matt Male Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 I tried to find out everything i could about Port a few years back but it's a pretty elusive label. I know it was out of the Jubilee/Josie stable in New York, but other than that no idea. Anyone have any more info? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

I know it was out of the Jubilee/Josie stable in New York, but other than that no idea. Anyone have any more info? I'm sure i read somewhere once that Carol Fran's 'Crying In The Chapel' (the A side to 'I'm gonna Try') was the orig but Elvis recorded it and had the huge hit with it which blew Carol's chance with the song. apparently, she met with Elvis some time later and told him about her recording of it and how his rendition could have stopped her earning money, so he gave her a heafty sum as a token gesture Edit: Orioles did the orig version Edited June 24, 2010 by mikecook Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Right after the record was sent to radio stations, Elvis Presley's version of the song was released, burying Fran's. When Fran bumped into Presley by coincidence later that year, she showed her independence and fearlessness by confronting him. "I was in California to see [songwriter] Jerry Capehart," she remembers. "There was a little restaurant next door, and I went in there, and Elvis Presley was on the back porch eating cantaloupe and ice cream. I went up to him and said, 'Why would you take bread out of my mouth?' He didn't know who I was. He said, 'Little one, what do you mean?' "I said I'm Carol Fran, and I did 'Crying in the Chapel,' and he said, 'Oh, little one, believe me, I had no control over that. It was just one of the tunes that I recorded and it was there. When they saw fit to release it, they released it.' He wrote me a check and gave it to me. He said, 'Here, baby, this'll buy you lunch. Don't be mad at me.' He folded it and gave it to me. I put it in my purse, and I kept it for two months. Then one day, when I opened it, there was no end to all the zeroes -- he gave me $10,000! I couldn't get to the bank fast enough to cash it." taken from https://bestofneworleans.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A32151 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Matt Male Posted June 26, 2010 Share Posted June 26, 2010 (edited) Lovely little label and punching well above it's weight in terms of the number of quality tunes and a number of the northern scene's favourite artists, such as Carol Fran, King Coleman, The Channels, Johnny Newbag, The Soothers and Daisy Burris. Thanks Roger. Edited June 26, 2010 by Matt Male Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
