Yes, sorry about that, chalky. I believe they're all 70s.

funco was a new moon/rudy robinson production my guess is it was late 60's

land also my guess would be it belongs on the 60's list.

asco and detroit street service inc, :shhh::wave:

I always wondered if the A. Page and S. Page credited on the Sharlotte Shaw 45 were, in fact, the same couple that sang on the Pages 45 on Sunstruck.

asco and detroit street service inc, :):D

Asco according to info here is maybe Miami, it does have question mark after it. Is the Detroit Street Service Inc soul? Just reading the bit round the bottom?? I've added it anyway.

Sherwood?

Yes, I would say so (these Jerry-O/Boo-Ga-Loo ones are all kinda debatable Detroit/Chicago anyway aren't they). This Sherwood scan has a cool stamp showing the Jerry-O address as Detroit :lol:

Gemni

Gemni on Wombat (a strong contender for the worst record I have ever heard described as 'northern soul') from Dearborn.

Gemini for the El Count Executives from Detroit - linked with Tru-Soul and from 1971 apparently.

Hello Richard,

Mail Call was from pontiac (sierras, clocks and classmen) both great doo wop groups. 1962-3 according to the jeff kreiter guide. they also had a subsidary called "Blue Velvet" that had at least two records probably both black artists maybe mid to early sixties to me. Jimmy rollins had a record on blue velvet and he was also on jer-jim-han. soul/blues would be my description. The other one was pure jazz.

The Blade record is talking blues. so i don't know if you want inclusion. i'm pretty sure it's detroit.

CYE was a 60's gospel label but had one or two that bordered on soul.

Blade - 70s

Is this 45 any good?

Cheers

Richard

The A side is a crazy sort of TV personality yelling a lot but the Instrumental track you posted is a fantastic version of the Jackie Wilson/Otis Leaville song "Love Uprising". It's done very much in the style of California Montage by Young Holt Unlimited. Good record and nice and cheap just like we like 'em!

I have a Detroit Shakers record on Soul Cat called Help Me with a Mike Terry credit.

Would this be Detroit? New York? or Boot?

Kev

Boot. Really Outsiders or Rainbows, not sure which.

Boot. Really Outsiders or Rainbows, not sure which.

The Soul Cat boot is the Rainbows - Help Me If You Can - Capitol. The Detroit Shakers - Help Me on Counsel is the Outsiders.

Sounds a bit blue eyed to me.

Did Mike Terry have an involvement in the Rainbows record?

M and M - Freddy Butler

Also added another M and M to the Chicago list

We had this early on in the list, but it seems to have disappeared :thumbsup: . Definately the Detroit address on some blue and yellow label releases on this label.

as well as the MandM label from the 60's there's another (M&M) 80's that maybe Detroit according to R&B Indies, Gemni, Lamont Dozier, Special Delivery & The Enforcers on a label distributed by R&L Distribution Co, Inc.

Where is the M & M Mind and Matter from????

Posted

The Detroit adress is on all 3 Freddy Butler 45s thats for sure :lol:

Hi Marc

It's on #331 I'm Gonna Be With You showing an E. Lafayette address.

Also on #712 My Troubles with just "Detroit Michigan" on a blue label :thumbsup:

However, no address on the attached scan of #332 Pitter Patter :thumbsup:

Anyone got a soundfile of this one please?

Cheers

Richard

re: Dynamics 45 on Dynamic.

according to the dynamics article in "theres that beat". the label was part owned by ernie stratton. no doubt a detroiter. i'm guessing chicago had their own dynamic label.

re: M&M

Two of the three freddy buttler's 45 on M&M have a detroit address. one being a Sa-Mo production. the Pitter Patter 45 is pure r&b.

What about Robert 'Red Top' Young's - Your Future on Soulsations? :rolleyes:

I know Red Top was an Ohio Artist, but isn't this credited as a Detroit release?

Cheers

Richard

Can anyone confirm???

Don`t think Checkmate should be included, it did put out a lot early Detroit penned and even recorded stuff but not only and the label was based in Chicago.

Marc

fine by me Marc, I'll add it to the Chicago if not already there.

Agreed Marc - wasn't Check-Mate basically the Chess/Checker sub-label for issuing Detroit material? Therefore, it would be collected by many Detroit collectors, although the label itself was registed in the Windy City.

It is also right I think that Zodiac and Boo are on the Chicago list, even though much of the output was Detroit and of interest to Detroit collectors.

What about Aquarius though? :rolleyes: That was also a Ric Williams (therefore Chicago) label wasn't it? Is this (Candace Love etc.) Aquarius label linked with the multi-coloured Aquarius label with releases by The Domestic-Five and The Soul In-Pressions? That one had a Highland Park, Michigan address. Anyone confirm please?

Cheers

Richard

I would say Check-Mate label is the same as Anna, Harvey and Tri-Phi all produced by billy davis later absorbed into motown? Just distributed out of Chicago.

There is a colorful aquarius detroit label like the "Domestic five" along with the red "Calvin Golden" 45 out of highland park Michigan. I think the other aquarius records are chicago.
