    Country singer Kenny O'Dell has a couple of collectable (non-country) tracks, at least one of which was chased by NS fans .......... .... here's a 1967 ad for one of his releases but I've had to add a couple of bits to it to make it a bit relevant .......

    ..... RE: Vinyl airline style bags were around in the 1960's but were they carried by Twisted Wheel goers? My memory ain't what it was BUT I don't recall anyone taking Vinyl airline style bags to the Wheel.

    Ordered a copy of the Soul Bros 45 by the Dynamites & Charles Walker from Amazon. Just over £6 with free P&P. As "Still Can't Get U Out o My Heart" is such a great track this has to be a b.b.b.b.big .. b.b.b.b.b.bargain. ...... AND ....... my purchase came with a £1 promo credit against my next purchase ... CBB ............. ......... (....... can't be bad)

    Well you'd think many who attended nighters around 69/70/71 were tw*ts then.

    I had a KOKO phase but I moved onto MINARET. SORRY, he said KOKO phrase, not KOKO phase.

    Quote from Dave Godin's B&S column in mag #82 (April 72) ........... 'Keep the Faith' is a well known expression that defies precise definition, but over the years gallant little President (of Jay Boy fame) have done just that, and now they have excelled themselves with their 3 volume set "Keep The Faith".

    No, he was a maid !!

    Wasn't 'Keep the faith' what Dave Godin signed off his B&S column with in every issue of the mag back in the 60's !!!! As he was the 1st national guy to highlight the existence of the NS scene I'd guess its true to say ...... A/ That it was a term used by some of those on the scene (at least back in the late 60's / early 70's). B/ Isn't like KOKO (!?!? .... keep on keepin on ... I guess) a 90's phrase.

    If the label got early feedback from some influential radio DJ's that the 'other side' was the one they were playing, then they would have quickly flipped the 45 and sent out copies with the original B side marked up as the plug side.

    And as I understand matters, if a song is designated as copyright control, the royalties (for the record release & radio plays) goes into a central kitty that eventually gets doled out to impoverished British ex-recording artists (down on their luck). So for all the US recorded UK released soul tracks that were MCPS copyright control, not one penny in royalties has ever found its way to any of those US recording artists. MAY BE WRONG HERE but don't believe I am. That's why US artists need to be signed to a decent label (Ace / Kent, etc) or be represented by Paul Mooney or his like over here.

    Not a remix but a new version of an old 1979 G&H penned Jones Girls Philly Int track ......... Shirley Jones (ex of the Jones Girls) & Lacee "I'm At Your Mercy" ....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N33QwYbFgJ8 ......... AND .. the original version .......... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ukFLWAMrr2w Must say, I'm missing the trademark 'Jones Girls harmony singing' on the new version though Lacee can certainly sing well too.
