Gilly

I loved him too just as many did (bless ya man)

Not read it yet but i just know its gonna be good.The genius of this man.Gilly and Nicola

Listen to the instrumental,to me it in parts sounds very much like The Gallop M Wright see what you think ? Going to work now(booooo)

He updated the song in the 70ts LP only and thats rather good too Martyn

Yes unreleased and Kent own the song leagely

What beautiful words Pep,iam so lucky to of met and indeed be a friend,kinda feel a bit guilty that i didnt DJ for you despite countless requests from yourself and Helen but still remained friends and the respect that i have for you two will always remain in tact.I think back to the earlier 70ts and as people will say you never forget Helen after that first meet and i wont.So sad,be strong Pep she will be remembered and loved by so so many soul fans through out the country Gilly (x Burton on trent) x

I remember them,can you recall a black guy getting up on that 6" stage with JJ his name is Locksley Naulty from B O T

Indeed Gary Dean is not only blue eyed hes blonde on top(well he was)it tells you in D Coffeys book a little about him.I remember it being played early wigan and on one of my trips to the US got a mint copy for about $2 dollars,well chuffed

Do you know mate its the only release ive seen on that lable but there is proberly about 6 others,yes Ruth is/was his wifes name the other lables he owned where named after his 3 daughters (Karen.Carla and his youngest Moira)Olies son Ira gave name to his publishing co

Spent a day in Chicago and lucky to be with Barbara Acklin and her manageress Janett McDowel,Janette took me over to south-side but never found anything,one shop owner was quite rude i dont know why maybe it was a racist thing or maybe he was having a bad day.I have to say i liked Chicago as a city more going for it than Detroit

Well if there is any background to that photo and there happens to be a Morris convertable in the shot WNU 118 that was mine.Regards to you Steve

Always a scuffle at the bottom of Samanthers stairs,yes i can name some involved Nobby S Larry,Fiak(i think) and a load of the Notts boys,i used to stand behind,wait for the big guys to put em down then get a cheaky boot in(what a coward)

Not one of mine Simon and the first i remember it been played was by Mr Darge.The writers credits Gilly/jilly that was myself and Kebs first wife it was just put on for a laugh

Remember hearing Bob Kuban The Cheater sung in French

Wonderfull and thank-you

Yes myself and Andy Tats found this on a master tape at Dave Hamiltons RIP and i with Dave mixed up a raw (very raw) version so i could play it on return to the UK i used to think it was quite good up until a full and proper mix came out on ACE/KENT D Hamilton cds it sounds so good unlike my mix.Alot of people have made nice comments about what i used to play maybe its the shear rawness of the thing i dont know..Kitch can you dig it out i need to borrow it for Deans radio show shortly thanks

Only just seen this Shelly thanks for responding

Anyone remember Pete Weller from Leicester,last seen him in Derby many years ago mucking about as usual,he was visiting old friends (lived in Amsterdam then) he came in a shoe shop with me put these shoes on and did a fantastic dance around store took them off gave them back to the owner and calmly said "no these wont do"you should of seen the look on the owners face and he just walked out as nothing had happend

Thanks mate

Yes, i used to use it early Bretby,C Anderton will remember the dates.This song is so brill it ought to carry some kind of a guide-line warning as to what it might do to your emotions

Just remind me was that the straw that broke the camels back?

For what its worth i had 25 mint(box set)and they went missing?

Here we go again,this is how i understand it,when i went to Duke Browners house on Broadway,Detroit he told me that it was the Volumes in between contracts that recorded Lady in Green Now the lead vocal on that tune was Gerald Mathis same guy as Same Old Feeling(compare the voices for yourselves)Gerald comfirmed this when i spoke with him many years ago.Before this recording 65 a single on Allright came out The Train the main man in this line-up was Tony Johnson (of Tony and Tyrone)Please Operator Atlantic and he comfirmed that as he was a friend of myself and Andy Taylors.The other groups of the same name were as already stated.Chicago and PhillyOh by the way that early Detroit group recorded but without release for Motown,they later changed the group name to i think The Downbeats .....help me out here you Motown men

Fantastic call Derek and also for me Tommy Fontera,Leading Lady.(match that Shakespere) Billy Stewarts Look Back And Smile and for the moment Smokey's What Ever Makes You Happy

The great Alan Day used to have a shop in New St Burton-Upon-Trent in the early 70ts used to go in on a saturday morning(mental place)Dave Gillanders from Derby helped out if i remember correctly.Would love to go back in time i always wondered what was in there that we are only now raving aboutt
