That's very true Mike and a lot of his best stuff had been borrowed over the previous 40 years. Raking up and recrimination won't particularly help but it might give the impetus to put together something of a tribute or at least document what is left which will spur on other contributions to Dave's work. He certainly gave stuff away or lent it out on a whim.
Thanks for that information. The whole dispersion of his possessions was chaotic. His LPs went to Scotland and were subsequently sold. I've got a file of censorship letters and a couple of nice Motown telegrams. I'll contact the museum and arrange to check out the boxes, give them relevant stuff from me and discuss what should be done.
Sorry for the confusion Mal, I'm good at that. It's as stated on the EP, the previously unreleased on vinyl 'I'll Be A Soldier Boy' same backing track as Bobby's 'Too Much'. I was flippantly suggesting I should have gone with the one in the ad to cash in on it. Cheers Ady
Bobby Angelle's family has made a few bob, along with a certain record company that will put some of the dosh to licensing new masters and maybe finding a couple of unheard dancers for us all to enjoy. Now eat your cereal up.
Thanks Andy, I knew Willie Brown was on there, I just wondered if any other members of the Intentions on Kent were. Amazing that it got a UK release.
Cheers

Did we ever discuss how the mispress came about with Me And You Doing The Boogaloo on by mistake. Presumably it was a Soussain job as it was only an LP track on an East Coast LP not a Los Angeles 45.
