  1. Andy says LaRue is a Ramitary song from the same time as Shrine was in operation. It is highly likely to have been an independent production job for Decca who cut it in NYC.
  2. I've an unreleased track by them where they sound like the Mike Sammes singers; good in its own right
  3. I didn't I'd love to see it in the flesh, as it were. Ady
  4. Same version?
  5. Do we know when the Smith Brothers was or has that been stated already?
  6. There, I changed the thread title. It's my ball and you lot can't play. Fancy not knowing the difference between Old Soul and old soul; some people
  7. Pesky Gee were primarily a soul act when I saw them John. Was it them or Ferris Wheel who had two of the fittest birds in the world ever? It's all very interesting but the thread was meant to be about Old Soul clubs later to be Northern Soul clubs, not old soul clubs!
  8. W C Stone was Walter Curry Stone. I seem to remember he found Lee a handful!
  9. :DIt's amazing how booting just wiped the price of a record out. I was sleeping overnight on Greyhound buses to save hotel costs and living on a diet of milk, bread and bananas so that I could spend all my money (n the world) on records. It was handy Ian told me before I bought 'em. Gillian McKeith would have been intrigued with my end product.
  10. Thanks Dave, that'll be spiffing. Ady
  11. Tell me about it. I was in Buckley's in Nashville just about to buy 100 copies when Clarkie told me it had been booted.
  12. Does anyone have a copy and if so could they send me an MP3 of Rose Batiste I Miss My Baby and any blurb on it. The other versions on 56 and 105 are different to the 45 though it doesn't seem to say that anywhere on the package and I wondered if this was the same or the correct version. Ta Ady
  13. He did, the ones as Hestor were misprints.
  14. That was a misprint, It's Hester
  15. Could someone very kindly send me a dub from the record please? PM or email an MP3 to ady.croasdell@btinternet.com Cheers Ady
  16. Lonely Teardrops/Daddy's Drinking Up Our Christmas I've seen it in a discog, dated 1966, is it the Detroit soulman? Looks a bit country.
  17. Not sure we've got that one Andy, I'll check. She Don't Want You and I'd Like To Know sound the business
  18. Exactly, when I first heard Lorraine's original vocal to this track, i called it the punk version. And of course i was one of the few Northern dancers to include the pogo in my floor work!
  19. To the rescue as ever; thanks Paul. I have faith in you!
  20. After a long illness Shelley Haims passed away in hospital in California this morning. I learnt the news as I was just finishing the first CD of Pied Piper productions that we licensed from him and his business partner in Pied Piper Jack Ashford. Shelley had a long career in the music business, starting out in his native Ohio in the 1950s. A song he wrote with Perry Stevens 'We Go Together' was a hit for the Moonglows in 1956 and for Jan & Dean 4 years later. The forthcoming CD will feature a Detroit soul version of the song by the Cavaliers. Shelley co-wrote several Pied Piper songs under the alias Randy Scott. Prior to Pied Piper he worked at Golden World and on Super Sonic Productions for labels such as Sport, Sir-Rah and Boss. I was able to convey through his daughter Lynn our admiration for his work only last week and they were both very happy that those songs meant so much to us.
