Glyn Williams Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 yes, quite nice innit cant even give a label cos its all blacked out with just 'promotional copy' showing
Denbo Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 yes, quite nice innit cant even give a label cos its all blacked out with just 'promotional copy' showing Sounded more like Mitch Ryder than Billy Butler or Major Lance to be honest.
Glyn Williams Posted April 11, 2006 Author Posted April 11, 2006 yeah, so it did - never thought of him - did he release it on issue?
Soul-slider Posted April 11, 2006 Posted April 11, 2006 Sounded more like Mitch Ryder than Billy Butler or Major Lance to be honest. Agree with this guy, does sound like Mitch Ryder, evn the backing sounds very familiar to his band The Detroit Wheels. while on the subject of mr.Ryder, I also have a re-issued 60's boogaloo/soul type record which is big on the Funk scene called 'Hey Sister!' by some guy called 'Mongo Bongo'... can't find it listed anywhere and i'm pretty sure it's Mitch Ryder too!

Complete balls up, sorry...should have been the flip Mr. Dynamite - 'Sh'Mon' ...came out on Sue in UK and goes for loads, last one I saw went for £300!!! I'm pretty sure Mr. Dynamite is Mitch Ryder.

Lost out on a french copy last year - does go for a bit of brass - dont see it too often. atb Rich
Soul-slider Posted April 13, 2006 Posted April 13, 2006 "Mr Dynamite" is a group called the "British Walkers" Thanks for that, been bugging me for ages. Presume they're British then, that will explain why no USA release.

Mines just a boot on Hipsville! with the Mr. Dynamite & The Quick (Bert's Apple Crumble) on the flip. As I said earlier it's titled as 'Mongo Bongo' (daft I know!) but you're probably spot on with Monguito Santa Maria, probs came out in the USA then, latin soul no doubt?

I know the disc - seen them fetch about 15 / 20 on ebay - Obviously $$$ for the originals . Theres some re-issue LP's of their stuff knocking around - try tunes.co.uk or soul brother. ATB Rich
