Neil Rushton Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Just read this. Very sad news. He was very good company. I spent some time with him years ago ago and he was commenting on the Northern scene and for some reason that escapes me about Simon Soussan's book. . Henry said that he threw away 100's of acetates from Motown. A lot of them were of unreleased tracks. He said that Motown fed him stuff all the time because as well as being their distributor for Florida he "took a chance" and also supplied other States/areas which he was not supposed to ship into. As a result he sold a lot of Motown records and said he was sent acetates all the time. | 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted August 17, 2014 Author Share Posted August 17, 2014 It's not a long read, about 90 pages I think but Henry put a book out a few years ago about the murky world of record distribution and payola. It's only available for kindle on amazon, not sure if you can get a had copy elsewhere? https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stone-Cold-Truth-Payola-Music-ebook/dp/B00C7FJ8VS Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
