Robbk Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I know of J & W 1001-Sue Perrin - "Can't Let Go" (1964) and Stewart Ames-"Oh Angelina"-(1965?). What other releases did this Golden World subsidiary have? Can we piece together a discography? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tony Smith Posted August 23, 2013 Share Posted August 23, 2013 I don't think there are any others Robb, I have a gospel 45 on a unrelated J & W label (also from Detroit) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted August 24, 2013 Author Share Posted August 24, 2013 I have the following for J & W Records: 1000 Stewart Ames - "King For A Day"/"Oh Angelina" 1964 1001 Sue Perrin - "I Can't Let Go"/"Clickety Clack Heart" 1964 The following were also listed by David Meikle, in a 2002 post on a Soulful Detroit Forum thread, referring to Ed Wingate, himself, having recently stated in a previous SDF post: 100 Willie Morganfield (Blues artist)-stated by David to have been the first release in late 1962. 101 Sue Perrin - "I Wonder"/"Put A Ring on My Finger" 1962 104 Sue Perrin - "Ring, bells, Ring"/"You Are My Only Love" 1963 However, I believe that Mr. Wingate confused J & W with his early, 1962 Golden World releases, or, at least, he was referring to Golden World releases 100-105 as having been released in 1962, without stating that he had changed his discussion from J & W to Golden World. My reasoning for that conclusion is because Golden World 101 and 104 were identical to what is listed here as J & W 101 and 104 (which I have, myself); and I have also seen Willie Morganfield as the artist for Golden World 100. I don't believe there were J & W releases in 1962. If any of you can give me some more information on these questions, please do. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Premium Stuff Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Hi Robb Will check this against the 45s and info I have - but think Tony has got it on spot on. Cheers Richard Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
mshoals Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 (edited) Willie Morganfield's name also appears on the J&W gospel 45s, so maybe there is a connection? Edited August 25, 2013 by mshoals Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Sunnysoul Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Is Ed Wingate still alive ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted August 25, 2013 Author Share Posted August 25, 2013 Is Ed Wingate still alive ? No! He passed on in 2006. I don't know if JoAnne Bratton is still alive. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
