Thanks Mark ,I don’t recall it from the time ,but can see why Richard bought it about ‘78

Yes I think you’re correct

I’ve just asked Richard ,he got Jimmy Burns from Levine ,along with Don Gardner ,Billy Watkins ,JD Martin ,Jay Traynor and Georgie Porgie on Jubilee ( still don’t know that ? ) what a hit !! Cheers Eddie

I seem to recall that Richard got Jimmy Burns from either Levine where he’d got a few things ,or a trade with Soul Sam .I’ll try and find out Paul ,ok

Really nice fella ,very sad news .Rest in peace Phil x

I thought that first episode was excellent

Went to see “ Lee “ yesterday,an excellent and at times hard hitting film about Lee Miller ,a WW2 photographer,starring Kate Winslett who also produced it .Recommended….

Yes Julian

Unless you’re joking ,you’ve just managed to airbrush out the last 40 years of the scene ,Stafford ,100 Club ,Cleethorpes Weekenders and plenty more ….

In the early days of The Rocket all Nighter ,yes .What he did was obviously wrong .

Gavin has passed away a while back

I recall Carla Thomas saying she didn’t like singing over pre recorded tracks under Don Davis ,preferring a live with band situation .

The film Zebrahead is on YouTube in its entirety…

Motown Memories 16 Non Stop Classics with sleeve notes by Mike Raven ,is a good early one on Tamla Motown
