    Have they been naughty then?
  2. Ady Croasdell
    But did you cover it up and call it Fred Knoblock or something equally witty!
  3. Ady Croasdell
    I was just thinking that Malc; though he might have been a bit harsher on me than modest!
  4. Ady Croasdell
    Yeah that was from that era down the 100 Club. A Cotique label collector reckoned it never came out on a 45 but that's what I played it from

    I'm still waiting for the apologies from all those diehards who slagged me for playing Boogaloo down the 100 Club in the 80s, Harvey Averne, Hector Rivera, Bad Breath etc. What price Johnny Colon now? Just the 25 years ahead of our time then, Martin Peters eat your heart out!

    And although Randy and I put on a great night and kick started the London Northern scene, we didn't exactly save the Northern scene double handedly: though my ego is tempted to claim it LOL

    Defo, but it'll be a while yet I'm afraid Ady
  8. Ady Croasdell
    A good little curiosity. There are surprisingly few mis-presses about when you consider the number of releases. Ady

    Sorry, no. I'll try and get one up on the site, the third Nancy is up there though. Ady

    It was originally played off a made up acetate from the master tape but a few years ago I found an original RCA 10" acetate at the publishers and have been playing that recently. I'm also playing the uptempo female version by Nancy Wilcox, as is Ginger. Ady

    Some of his unissued Ring recording 'It's Alright To Cry Sometimes' can be heard here https://www.6ts.info/audio.asp
  12. Ady Croasdell
    Yes and we're getting there slowly. There are also other unissued tracks out in LA.

    There weren't really any Atalntic recordings those were all recordings for Ray Charles Tangerine subsidiary label Crossover. This was neither, it was an independent Chicago production.

    Great stuff and it must be the same group as the Megatrons/Megatons whose 'Detroit Sound' on Laurie I used to play covered up in the mid 80s and we put out on a Kent LP of Laurie material. Eugene Thomas was the lead on that too. Any chance of licensing it from its owner? Assuming we'll get access to the tape of course? Ady
  15. Ady Croasdell
    That was issued a couple of years back on a Kent CD "Masterpieces Of Modern Soul Vol 2" Craig, Ady
  16. Ady Croasdell
    Thanks Dave, we'll put that in our CV! Do you mean why did we stop putting girly sounds on the CD comps? Ady
  17. Ady Croasdell
    Sorted thanks Ady
  18. Ady Croasdell
    Please Ady

    The Motown gaff was owned by an oldish Wolvo bloke, who had frequented the Cats. He never came to the 100 Club but was speeding away merrily when I saw him. He collected the rents from all the market stalls on Portobello Rd. Boy George's brother was a regular!
  20. Ady Croasdell
    Pound for pound Mirwood though Ric Tic, Shrine, Revilot and Golden World would be up there.
  21. Ady Croasdell
    If you get down the 100 Club you can hear at least 3 unreleased Nancy Wilcox PP gems!
  22. Ady Croasdell
    Nice stuff Roger, have you ever noticed any variations in the mixes, I seemed to think the sax break was louder when we put it on CD, but comparing it to the US copy it's actually quite down in the mix. ady

    GWP is the same as the label, owned by Gerard W Purcell. It was the NYC end of the operation and when the Pied Piper productions finished they took over. They already had some of their own artists too. It's all in the GWP CD booklets. By coincidence George Kerr was a later producer on the actual GWP label. Ady

    This is really sad, I was negotiating with one of his German friends to bring him to Cleethorpes in 2009 when he was struck down by a chest infection, he already had bad lungs. Apart from his Northern hits (I agree Love Love Love was one of the first to get me into the scene) we always wanted to hear him perform Sunny for our Sonny. There is also the excellent Would You Believe, sung by William Hunt and Kenny Lonas that he wrote that I've never heard Bobby's original of. It's great that Ian Levine and crew caught him for SWONS and we have that visual image of him. Thanks for everything Bobby

    I had two out of a proper US shop wiith no boots in it in the mid 70s so original or boot of the time
