Stuart Russell Posted July 27, 2007 Posted July 27, 2007 Keith Rylatt (who was one of the contributors to the original fanzine) has just finished a book on Detroit's soul and R&B scene called Groovesville USA. It's being edited and designed at the moment and should be out before the end of the year. I can't say too much about it at the moment but I'll keep everybody up to speed on here. Stuart

okehgaz Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Remember this well. Out at the same time as Rod was producing Midnight Express. Wish i'd still got mine
Cheapsiderecords Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 Suerly this deserves a re-press? I lost mine years ago and ask Rod about this about the same time he re-produced 1 - 4 of Voices. If I recall there was no pricing in it, just lots of great label listings and photos
Barry Posted July 30, 2007 Posted July 30, 2007 You've just burst a memory there - I ran a small record shop when I left school, before Hott Waxx Records, and used to be sent a similar thing from the States but without the scans if I remember correctly - what would that have been?

Sean Hampsey Posted July 31, 2007 Posted July 31, 2007 Great Publication. I'd have said it was early 80's. That's when I got my copy. Spent hours drying out mine only this weekend following the recent flood. Sean
