Just seen a record by the Sham-ettes on MGM called 'He'll come back'

Anyone know if this is the same track as Sylvia Shamwell released, and if so is there a connection (based on the 'Sham' part of each name???)

Regards

Mace.

who wrote/published the sham-ettes track mace, assuming you have seen scan or the copy itself? i've got the sylvia shemwell (on philips, great record too i reckon) and can compare to save you looking for your copy if you like.

Have a look at this:

...so there's a Sam the Sham connection, but IMHO the Gold Dust group are completely different, although I have seen another site which assumes there's only one...

Hippo.

Certainly no connection to Sylvia Shemwell then, who was I'm sure related to Dionne Warwick & was a member of the Sweet Inspirations. Agree on the Philips track Dan great record :thumbsup:

She certainly was. Recall reading she was Judy Clays sister :thumbsup:

She'll Come Back got spins mid 80's from Guy and bit late from myself, not sure if I bought his copy :)

Sham-ettes was on ebay and was flipside Dan, so no idea who credited to.

Sylvia Shemwell is indeed a top tune...may have to dig it out for Bidds Rare Soul night this friday...

Ooops sorry...blatant plug.... :ohmy:

Love this, think I first heard it from Phil Shields in Belfast couple of years ago :ohmy:

Sylvia and Judy Clay are indeed sisters, and adopted sisters to the Warwicks (yes I did have to look it up, old issue of 'In the Basement' with great interview with Dee Dee Warwick in it :ohmy: )

Did you ever get an answer to this question? I'd be interested to know about that possible connection as well.
