Dave Moore Posted December 3, 2008 Posted December 3, 2008 Tony, Check out George MacGregor's thread on SDF. Not much about R and R but he'll have any answers to questions you have. The guys is a mine of great info. Link here.... https://soulfuldetroit.com/forum/index.html Not sure if that will take you to the actual thread but if you type in Ronnie and Robin on the search facility it'll show you what's there.

George was A&R man at Sidra and supplied Joe Boy info on Ronnie & Robyn, if I remember correctly they were the son and daughter of one of the investors into the label. Am seeing Glenn tomorrow and will try and get full story.
Godzilla Posted December 5, 2008 Posted December 5, 2008 Pretty certain Ronnie isn't Gaylord. There's bit of wiki info here: RONNIE GAYLORD I'm sure I read that the Ronnie of Ronnie and Robyn was really called "Bobby" something, and sang with a local Detroit band prior to the Sidra stuff.

Yeh--thanks ,Godz--intresting to note on the piece on Eiki that"In 1976 Bonaldo changed his name to Burt Holiday---NO!!! --they recorded "Love where have you gone" as Ronnie Gaylord and Burt Holiday(which Arthue Fenn refused to play ,when i gave him my newly acquired copy at Rudie,s in Scarboro in 1978---now i see why--the wonder of growing old!!) on Palmer about 1967.
