Two of the girls in the group conferred on this one so it's more reliable than some memories and there are always quirks in recording history that made the most unlikely of scenarios actually happen.
According to the girls it was Benny Benjamin on drums, Jamerson, Joe and Dave, recorded in Cleveland before the United Sound sessions that came out on Checkmate, not Kable but that set-up of publishing etc. I'll send you the CD with the full story and MP3s of the other two.
Hi Robb,
it's different session to the Kable one abs a different line up, the girls remembered it clearly. I think it was Joe, Dave on guitar and Jamerson on bass. I don't have the notes in front of me. I think it's a better version. We already have an unreleased track from the session out on an Ace girl group CD
Jack Ashford as part of the Charles Harris Trio were recruited by Marvin while playing a Philly nightclub and went on tour with him along with other established Funks
A lot of records were like that, a musical business card, so I wouldn't say it was never released Martin. Just done for local sales and to help the group.
