Windlesoul Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 (edited) 'Bee Gee Stans of Detroit' it says on the label - but isnt Bee Gee from Va? Think I read this somewhere / listed by Greg Haynes on his online resource. Anybody know anything about the origins of BG Stans or the label? Cheers and Merry Christmas folks, Mark.

NEV Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 Quote from the cd .. Bee gee stans were from Richmond but Detroit was considered as Soul central ,so adding that to the groups name was considered a good business move .
Chalky Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 As Nev said both the group and the label Richmond, VA
Windlesoul Posted December 25, 2012 Author Posted December 25, 2012 As I thought then, cheers guys for the replies! Enjoy your sprouts. M.
Premium Stuff Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 As a consequence of the name you sometimes see this 45 listed by sellers as 'Detroit'. Cheers Richard
boba Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 it's also a solo female, so probably more a band than a group
NEV Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 it's also a solo female, so probably more a band than a group "It's " ?? Is that correct Grammar Bob ? Interesting point though ,as I myself never give it a thought and use the term group loosely . But it is actually a valid point if given enough thought .

But it is actually a valid point if given enough thought . A group is simply more than two of whatever is making up the group. A band is a group of musicians.
NEV Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 A group is simply more than two of whatever is making up the group. A band is a group of musicians. I took it as a band is made up of musicians and one main singer . A group has more than one vocalist ??

NEV Posted December 25, 2012 Posted December 25, 2012 "it" refers to the record. what did you think was grammatically incorrect? Hi Bob Somehow looks wrong ? It is
boba Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Hi Bob Somehow looks wrong ? It is um, not sure what's wrong. convince me.
Chalky Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Dodgy ground when correcting others grammar (is that spelt right :lol), usually make a mistake next posting It's is an abbreviation of it is (or it has) but is usually avoided when referring to to the person. So I think Bob is technically right if referring to the record??? Where's the English teachers when you need them.
boba Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 yeah, I thought that I was obviously saying "it is", where "it" referred to the record. I didn't even think that's what Nev was criticizing but I had no idea what he was trying to say was grammatically incorrect. Either way, it doesn't matter and is off topic, but I'm still wondering what he thought was wrong. p.s. Nev, way to not be a steward of your mother tongue. FOR SHAME. 1

Hi Bob ,It's ok if you were referring to "the record " and not the person That"s why I asked if it was correct . It reminded me of being corrected for referring to a woman in company as "she " or a new born baby as "it " . I was'nt trying to be pedantic ,it just did'nt look or read right when I first read it. Atb for 2013 .
boba Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 I just remembered, I think I actually got my copy of the bee gee stans from you! I think it was the first thing I ever bought on soul source. 1
