Morning Mel, Grant Higgins is the same person as Rod Jordan which is how "I Live In A Castle" was released (Karen 322). Apparently Ollie McLaughlin didn't think the name Grant Higgins would fly. Grant was a Rock n Roll artist who had a long career in that genre. His nephew Weldon Higgins has just finished his uncle's biography. When looking around the songwriters of Detroit stuff , his name appears every now and then. I think he did some stuff with Sharon MacMahon. Grant's family hadn't herad any of his stuff until recently. They were stunned when they found out he had a few "collectors items" under his belt They have copy of I Live In A Castle now but I know Weldon would be interested in then acetates if they wee for sale.

"You're Teasing Me" deffo unreleased, nice track even if a little "poppy" in a Sandpipers vein.

Not in monetary terms anyway. Can't see anyone shelling out big $$$s for what are effectively "so so " sounds. What Weldon would pay to have them I wouldn't like to say, but I know he would like them. Regards, Dave www.theresthatbeat.com www.hitsvillesoulclub.com
