How is it if you ask people who, let's say Bob Marley is, they all know, but they don't have a clue who Curtis Mayfield is ?. No disrespect to Marley.

Move on up was actually the second single release from the album in UK/Europe, the first was Nov 1970. The tour in late 71 was probably to promote his new album Roots. The first track on the video, Keep On Keeping On, is off that album.

Afraid so, it was played at the L'ambassadeur nighter in Bradford and also got spins at local non nighter venues, around here. It's UK release, June 1971, pre dates Torch, Junction and Cats all nighters, and was too late for the Wheel.

None of this makes any sense. The curtom promo must have been 1972. Discogs must be wrong. The record was played on the scene as a new release and was minor hit in the UK which probably led to the US release in 1972. It was reissued in the UK in 74.

Which means, in my experiences of dealing with Sam, Ady probably wanted 10k for it and was lucky to get 5.

When the all nighter crowd left the Mecca to set off to wherever, and the crowd thinned out later on, there were dozens of new/recent 70's releases played in the last couple of hours. Due to the "Carstairs" split in the scene, many never really reached the nighter scene, and gained more exposure, until much later. Stevens & Foster, Innersection, Bettye Swann Kiss My Love, Sam Dees Fragile...... to name just a few. Quite often the records were played for a couple of weeks only then replaced with other new releases.

As usual, who is perceived to have played it first and who actually played it first of often differ. I seem to remember the Second Re$surection, mentioned earlier, being a Mecca play, probably Colin.

According to discogs and 45cat they were Johnny Copeland and Miss Lavell (Lavell White).
-
Pretty sure this was played out in about 71/72/73. L'Ambassadeur, Central possibly Torch too.
-
Bump UP on this Anyone got any ideas ?.
-
What always surprised me with the LP were the inclusion of Singer Man and and Grooving Out On Life, two originally reggae cuts .
-
I'm good mate, your fine self ?.
-
Sorry mate he did 2 albums, one on Lizard before the ABC one.
-
People were buying the album for Keep on Keeping on and Oh Baby, at the time, I'm sure people believed it was the only way to get Oh Baby. I remember being quite surprised when I saw Oh Baby on a 45 for the first time. The Probe 45 of If Only... came out quite a bit later than the album, and would have sold a lot more with Oh Baby on the flip, which had been played out quite a bit.
-
He also recorded an album.

At least you resisted the temptation to "model" them Phil. Kegsy (Thankful for small mercies).

Easy mistake to make mate, I think Iris might have been one of the Blossoms or possibly the Petals
