  1. That’s Roger Stewart
  2. When Elton John auctioned his collection for the Terence Higgins Foundation, he had a run of every UK Chess release from about 65-67 with Reg Dwight neatly written in the right rectangle on the corner of the sleeve of every one
  3. Thanks Chalky I’ll look into it Ady
  4. Thanks John, I'll pester Cliff for an MP3
  5. Does anybody know if the Calla version of Housewife Blues is different from the Love F&F version, the flip of the single 'Does Your Mama Know' is
  6. Yes Val has all her records and often DJs, no regular venues as far as I know but plenty of guest spots. Lisa Hurley does a few and Donna Driscoll occasionally. Younger DJs include Sarah Jane and Lisa Wolverson, I'm sure there are loads more
  7. Thanks Martin, I got sorted for my immediate needs but will refer to this in future. Ady
  8. All are limited, most to 500 some to 1000 and a few points in between. Some sell out, some don’t. The Rita and the Tiaras was 1000 but sold out and price is edging up. I’m pretty sure Darrow will Be The Same. His ‘No Limit’ sold out a while back
  9. I doubt there'll be many changes at all but Phil & Neil will sort out when they've recovered from Detroit. I'm on!

  11. Ask them for a spare sleeve next time you order Sorry ‘bout that
  12. I've been reliably informed it's a Motown recording by blues singer Jesse Yawn so neither of the releases were legitimate https://www.bradenton.com/entertainment/article90245287.html
  13. Los Angeles soul man Rudy Love (and his Love Family) has a fascinating story going back to the early 60s and incorporating many great producers and acts along the way. An independent film on his colourful musical life will be shown at the Raindance Music Documentary on Sept 29th, followed by an after-film gig at the 100 Club. 6TS supporter John Smith (aka member roburt) was instrumental in getting the film and gig together and we all have danced to Rudy's 'Suffering Wrath' down those famous stairs. I hope to see some of you there. Ticket link is here https://thisislovefilm.com/ Film documentary teaser is here Ady site word can view Johns Topic here and event details in the Event Guide update news AGMP have given us soul supporters a special price for this chance to see Los Angeles soul legend Rudy Love at the 100 Club. If you go to https://www.seetickets.com/event/rudy-love-the-love-family/100-club/1259116 and enter the code RAIN1 they can get tickets for £15 (instead of £20). Rudy has an amazing story which is told in the film about him on in the Raindance Film Festival in London http://calendar.raindancefestival.org/films/this-is-love I hope some of you can make it and give Rudy a warm London welcome.

  16. Ex/M copy needed for a loan; rewards abound. Ta Ady
  17. From a James Wayne on Old Town blues CD The James Wayne recordings were a wonderful find in the Old Town archives, found in the mid-80s. Hy Weiss recalls the events surrounding Wayne's session: "It was 1954. I saw him in the middle of the night drinking at the Baby Grand on 125th St. I took him out into the street and I called Jimmy Lewis who was the guitar player at Atlantic. I said 'get me some musicians' so we went down to the Bell Sound studio, woke the guy in the middle of the night, and I recorded James Wayne. In the morning I had no money to pay him; there were cops all over the place, we were fighting all over in 133 Street. It was one of the funniest nights of all times. "The next day I brought him some money to pay him. He was in his army uniform, and I didn't believe it was him, until he showed me his identification papers! He had that big record 'Tend To Your Business' - it was the most drunken session I ever had."
  18. I wrote on the New Breed CD it's on 20. THIS LITTLE LETTER - JAMES WAYNE (James Wayne) (1960) Angletone 540 There were probably two James Waynes singing blues in the 50s. Our guy was from Elizabeth, New Jersey, while a more prolific chap worked out of New Orleans. A 1969 single on the Key-Lan label may be this James Wayne too, but there are few clues apart from the aural evidence. The song is a great driving blues with superb horns and tough vocals.
  19. Nice choice but October is cast in stone (or vinyl to be exact)
  20. Just getting it set up, try early next week. Ta Ady
  21. I'm sure a lot of dealers, in particular, on here will have experience of this. Where's the best place to get shelving for 45 racks. I want to go up to about 8" and have two gaps one 113 cms, one 190 cms. The shelves only need to be 5" wide and 8" deep (sorry about switching measuring scales)

  24. She says thank you for posting my song, which is the music she wrote not the vocal. She told me it wasn't her singing.
  25. Not Sherlie Matthews and Not My Sugar Baby, just some session singer Soussain got to warble over the My Little Girl backing track in the 70s. Bootleg of course, nowt to do with Mirwod except the track
