Citizen P

Lamont Dozier and his big brother Bull. Sorry Tony

On the same Lp as I can't break the News is a track called I Get Carried Away. Is that the same as Jerry Naylor?I was asked. No don't think so sez I. Play it then. It Is. Tony

Oh go on then. Aretha , Carolyn, Erma. Inez & Charlie Foxx TP

Only 3????? OK. 3 album tracks wot I give a battering to at Heywood. Money - The Supremes Ain't You Glad You Chose Love - Gladys Knight I Want My Baby Back- Stevie Wonder Tony

You would think so wouldn't you,especially when you hear it. However, the CD credits it to G.W. and the Ram Jam band, so neeehhh Tony

Is that a clue?? I have. :angry: can't see it. or am I missing sumfink?? Tony

Geno Washington & the Ram Jam Band---"If this is Love" Is this gettable?? Tony

Suprised nobody mentioned ACTION Tony

Actually that's the A side. My missus loves it as well. OO ERRR Captain Pedantic Tony

Note to self. " Must get out more"-- Never realised how well loved the Fantastic four track is, only ever played for myself. as to the rest, well I was only thinking about an hours worth or so, maybe next month. All The Best The Birthday Boy.( Well Thursday, but I'll take it)

If I can spell it right "Psychedelic Soul" Tony

So Stevie sez to me " Make sure you play some Motown at the Civic" (PLUG ALERT Heywood Civic 5th of May, it' me Birthday doncherno) Any road up, what do you reckon to these for about an hours worth Money Supremes I want my baby back Stevie Wonder I gotta find a way Temptations More,More of your love Smokey & Miracles Good Rockin Jnr Walker Come Back Baby Shorty Long Share a little Love Isleys Heartless Martha Reeeves You got the love I need Undisputed Truth My Baby Loves Me Martha Reeves (my favourite) How can I say I'm sorry Jimmy Ruffin(my other favourite) Ain't you glad you chose love Gladys Knight Girl why do you wanna make me Blue Temptations The Stranger Gladys Knight Misery Supremes My kinda fellow Gladys Knight What more could a boy ask for Spinners If you ever get your hands on love Gladys Knight Shake & Fingerpop Jnr Walker I just wanted to cry Edwin Starr Don't bring back Memories 4 Tops No one there Martha Reeves. Think that'd keep the floor in motion?? Any comments, suggestions, substitutions --- feel free Tony

Oh b*llocks. It's me birthday next week. Now I am frightened. Worried Heywood

2 LP tracks for your consideration "Money" & "Misery Makes Its Home In My Heart" Two crackers that are rarely played out, but then I loves Motown and will probably air them out at Heywood next week. (It's me birthday by the way ) Tony

Just PMed you mate. Tony

In the 5 Heartbeats during the contests was a Group called " The Falcons"!!?? TP

I trust you'll understand when I say, In the same way as when you're tucking into your Kentucky Fried Pizza you look across to what the guy on the next table is having and say " Fork me, I wish I'd had that". Then you look in your mates record box(es) and say.............. Tony

Love it Always give it a spin towards the end of the night down at Heywood,and then also try to slip in" Welcome Home" as the last one. Tony

Got a spare on PIR as well Tony

Not seen the man since the 70's, well known face in Manchester, Sounds, the Douglas,Ducie Bridge back to Sounds then on the train for tthe old Wigwam, Carolines, Black Bird(Gaetano's) was in all these places,always skint!! but never mind who wasn't? Then he'd disappear for a few months. Next time you saw him would be at Rod Shards and Dave Withers place in the underground market or Tony Justs. Gawd knows where he'd been.Coupla months later he'd be gone again, ah well. Another one down, but we'll all meet again. Tony

Must be harder than I thought. I do know it aint on the Cd "Motown Years" Tony

I Dig Everything About You Anyone know owt? Single? LP only? Value? Cheers Tony

Without waving the red rag and getting the oldies versus newies going again, just wondering if you'd heard anything lately that struck you as the essence of NORTHERN. You know with same buzz as say,Bob Relf, Frankie Beverley, Van Dykes,Lou Pride,Tomangoes etc etc or have all the truly great tunes already been played??? Cry Havoc. Tony

Really like Roddie Joy's version of Come Back Baby Ketty Lester--River of Salt Supremes--Misery made my heart its home Tony

Being that most of our heroes came from pretty poor backgrounds and found that they had a talent for music that could lift them, did any of them ever make any real money?? Obviously I'm excluding the real rare stuff that sold 1 copy or less. I'm thinking more along the lines of The Dells , Jackie Wilson, Four Tops etc people that had some pretty sizable hits along the way. As its fairly well known that label owners and managers during the 60's and beyond were quite ,err, "shrewd" businessmen. Just curious Tony
