It seems that by the early 70's, some Motown acts were going on stage backed up by Stax people (the Fabulous Soul Children's Band) ...
-
No mention on this thread yet for the Ambassadors ........... Had to be 6 or 7 separate SOUL groups that used the name (if we can include Betty Moores lot in the total).
-
Johnny Otis had some great people work with him down the years (though most weren't jazzy).
-
And I could've bought a copy for 94c from Randy's Record Shop but I hadn't heard anything by any version of the Ambassadors back in the 60's ..
-
Kegsy. I'm from Yorkshire too. I NEVER buy !!
-
Trying to id a record, similar to Billy Stewart/Pat & Blenders
Roburt replied to Will's topic in Look At Your Box
Don't sound much like Brrr - Brrr Brrrr -- Billy Stewart to me !! -
Kegsy'll drink anywhere !!!
-
The group before they got on Curtom .... I just love this 45 label with the 2 distinctive Chitown skyscrapers on it ..........
-
A group from Detroit, don't think they ever amounted to much but at least they got a NY gig ........
-
AND one that's a bit more mainstream jazz .................. Yet anuva gudy from im ...........
-
Nuda un .............. DREAMER .......

More about Leslie Drayton here. HE has played on stuff with E,W&F, Jnr Walker, New Birth, Marvin Gaye & more ............... https://draytonmusic.com/
-
......... AND ... you could pick up copies of the album in the UK back then for pence (Yanks, Mancaster I think). An 'Andy Whitmore' discovery if I'm not mistaken. Seem to recall Andy doing an article on Leslie in a soul fanzine back then.
-
I'm sure it didn't escape on Playboy, Osiris or Columbia (his US labels from 74 to 78) ...... ..... AND I SHOULD KNOW WHAT HE WAS UP TO, after all I was his producer & arranger ........
-
A little band from LA ...........
-
Lots of tracks like these on ............ Bill Haney's Atlanta Soul Brotherhood CD & VOL.2 CD from Kent.
-
And anuva from Chant ...............
-
Another nice one from the same source (label, writer, producer & youtube poster) ..........
-
Has sold for as much as $1600, $1700 & $2000, but that's the BOBBY (wil)BURN version of the 45 on Chant. Doesn't it originate from the Atlanta area (so no Philly Soul connection at all).
-
Coming to London soon, but back in 1970 he was on in NY ...... Mor of Chicago's finest taking on NY audiences in 70 ..........
-
Chicago hits New York in some style (with help from Philly & Detroit: the 2nd show on this ad -- late Feb 70) ..........
-
Thought I'd resurrect this thread as I have more interesting show ads to put up ............ I wonder if the Swordsmen were still part of her live 'company' at this time (early 70) .......... Another soulful female on the NY club scene ...........
-
This uns a lot more like it (guess that's him on piano) ......
-
The above IS Jimmy Wisner, back in his Buffalo days. It was his record label too. Another from him (but the vocals on this make it a lot more MOR) .........
-
A bit of live jazz from Marcus Miller .......... a Motown original it ain't ..........
