  1. I'm glad you had a nice time but I am none the wiser as to what the music was like or who the DJs were or how many attended Brits and locals.
  2. Sorry, yes Ohio and Kenneth Head are Kenny Carter and we don't know anything about Kenny Carlton. Thanks Robb
  3. I think he repressed as the Pentagons for the ballad side. I think they were temporarily known as the Corduroys to get away from the Jamie deal. The Hale is rare but exists, I got an acetate of it which I actually believe is genuine, some of the ones that were sold 10-15 years ago weren't cut in the 60s.
  4. Thanks, it sounds a bit like the story of John Dolphin too. I'm going another way in my research and should know if I'm correct in a day or so. Ady
  5. No but I think he managed them at the time of their Burn single before they teamed up with Gilbert Covell for the Dore releases.
  6. Does anyone know if it's the William Powell from the O'Jays?
  7. CD first Geoff, I've been trying for ten years, give us a chance!
  8. Real name Kenneth Head
  9. He was from Kent, Ohio ironically. I put a fair bit about his RCA sessions in the Larry Banks Story CD and Dave Godin wrote a bit about him in his first Deep Soul Treasures
  10. Sorry I totally disagree. I've got an unreleased LP by Kenny Carter and play it regularly along with his released tracks before and after and on neither of the Blue Rock sides does he have any of Kenny's many vocal inflexions.
  11. Thanks Mark, I'm all sorted now. Ady
  12. That's sad news, she seemed to be a very active FaceBook user with positive messages for her community.
  13. Scan still needed people. Thanks Ady
  14. Thanks folks, that's good because the I'll Be Gone side is all girl which contradicts Steve Propes interviews but this is obviously mainly male. Fascinating tie-ins with Little Johnny Hamilton & The Creators. Incidentally Joe Lawson was also in the Vows on Markay in 1962 before rejoining around 1965/66.
  15. Thanks, I couldn't find it. I'd still like to see a scan if anyone has it. And now I need to hear the flip too because this sounds like a female backing group to me.
  16. Anyone got a soundfile or a scan of I'll be gone side? Quality doesn't matter. ta Ady
  17. I've never heard of the Keep On Moving white labels, I thought it was just Butch with the demo?
  18. Nice record, sounds like Betty Lavette My Man, He's A Loving Man, also Detroit. It suffers from being mid-tempo R&B in parts then jumps to uptempo nearly Northern.
  19. The 100 Club's usually on the Black Hole Of Calcutta end of the spectrum.
  20. Awful news; my condolences to all who knew her. Ady
  21. Indeed and some bright Stafford sparks had a T-shirt with a cat being kicked. The repress is actually great quality, must have been from master tape by Lew Bedell
  22. Yes, Andy Rix got her eventually. I wrote about her in the notes. She's still about and well and a Minister I think; certainly church involved.
  23. I've just heard the nearly finished master and it really is a scorcher, at least as good as Vol 1. One of the highlights is our fellow SS member Lorraine Chandler singing Teddy Randazzo's 'Lost Without You' it's an absolutely stunning ballad that she delivers superbly. It makes you wonder what a major artist she could have become if she had chosen performing above producing and writing. But then we'd have missed out on some wonderful songs and productions.
  24. All of Doni Burdick's recordings seem to be using backing tracks like his out of tune 'Candle' that uses the Dynamics 'I Need Your Love' and 'Whatcha Gonna Do' uses September Jones Chink A Chank Baby. I Have Faith In You is Edwin Starr's backing track and credits the right writers but changes the producers, only 'Open The Door To Your Heart' seems to be a fully legit cover with the proper credits. As many dubious practices as that bloke from Leeds; no they couldn't be could they?
