Tony Turner sent me a MP3 of this track last week, a really great track, The Indelgents - Stop (You're Breaking My Heart). I was looking at a scan of the label, then realised it was the same as the old 'Dream Merchants' release on Renee records, that used to be in so many sales boxes. On a further look at the two labels, they are almost the same, in design and print, both Philly tracks, and good ones... Ive had a few things on Renee records over the years, but never had 'The Indelgents' or anything on 'Jenges' records, is this the same group of labels? I haven't looked on Discogs, and Id prefer not to, lets use the knowledge on this site :-)O Anybody know the story behind these two? Mal

Happy Halloween

wow, no need to cut that out Steve, Christmas card me thinks.

always wondered about that "I'm Losing You" on 'Like it is....records' I guess our bootlegger was telling us something...

I remember saying to Pete Smith, that 'Margie Joseph - One More Chance' was a great crossover record, which it is IMO, you can imagine his response... laughing Ive always thought of it as the period in the late sixties where the sound started to change into what was the seventies, not to say there are not any 7ts crossover records, there are loads, but the kind of genesis of 'Crossover' is that late sixties period, production was becoming better, and that gave these pre seventies tracks a different feel to the sixties sound of 66 say... something like that...

last one was about the two Aussie 45's but nothing since then Woody... I'll pm you..

Hi folks, anybody got one of these on the Pyramid label, must be good nick James King - Memory 12" / Pyramid best malcolm

Anybody got any good Acetates? Bell Sound or Publisher ones, not interested in crap titles, must be legit, and have some sort of history as to where they have come, northern / Mod or sixties sides... anything good... Just thought Id treat myself.. Malcolm

noted, I'll never speak to Mabel again

that's a shame Pep, it was such a lovely stamp, its almost criminal to find out it has no real historical importance that said, that list of first plays is great info for folks of my age, they are all oldies but that history is now getting scewed a bit isnt it, It's great to hear from somebody who knows first hand I'm from the midlands but born in 69, so the Old Vic is the club I went to in Wolverhampton... so outside of yourself and Blue Max, who would have been Cats DJs that were spinning at the old vic? Great thread...

That is dreadful news, he was a really nice guy RIP Jason

really really enjoyed this one Steve, got a wants list again :-)O

This weeks show is a belter, some great soul, an oldies section, and one very nice 'Yacht Rocker' for you as well as some great WVON Radio ads. WVON was the major Black music Radio station in Chicago in the sixties, their reach into the back community there was as much as the church, and their line of Radio Jocks were some of the best in the business. Soul from the Heart, and then Some!
