  1. The West Coast group the Blendells ("La La La La") on a show in San Diego with UK group the Dave Clark Five .....
  2. Some shows Carole Hughes did in the LA area .............
  3. Mr. Excitement on with Sam Cooke (& others) back at the end of the 50's .........
  4. Many thanks for that. I guess the B in 'More B Records' could easily stand for B(altimore) ..... AND the MORE for (Balti)MORE. No Genilia Pub registered with BMI anymore ..... OR ..... any Clyde Crawford as a songwriter.
  5. .......... a BRUNSWICK explosion ........ ............. not a bad track at all .........
  6. Don't know if this guy ever amounted to much (musically) ...... ... he maybe managed to carve out a music career for himself .... This show he did in Texas was around 55 years ago !!!! Mind you, since then the thrill is gone (& it's gone for good) ...
  7. This woman would be happy at the moment (if she was in the UK) ..... ... coz she couldn't stand the rain ............
  8. Yep, those two are the duo that famously never talked to each other for years unless they were in public. It's also rumoured that Dave tried to get rid of his kid by leaving him at a bar & then tried to leave the country without his passport. The guy's quite a plonka but then as he used to go riding with the 'Ginger Winger from News Int' I guess you already realised that !!! BTW, be careful as there was a 'FAKE' version of Sam & Dave doing gigs at one time ...........
  9. Some Cameo Parkway distributed releases ............
  10. Capitol pushed the Magnificent Men's record ........
  11. Another Shout Records ad ................
  12. Kegy (!?!?!), start a new thread & get em posted up. I have quite a lot as well that I can add in. When they include a picture of the artist, some can be quite enlightening (lots of white singers doing soul tracks back in the 60's when it was that sound that was selling).
  13. No, James Bell's outfit were an entirely different group.
  14. Last ever live act to play the Mojo ...........
  15. That would be good. So their 45 must havebeen pressed up twice & yet it still remains a rare item. Does your 45's label give any clues to where the label was based ? .... CHEERS
  16. Yes, Lorraine .......... a story I tell to my grandkids ........... Once upon a time, in a land far far away, they made Northern soul music. Only nobody knew it was Northern Soul until Wigan Casino discovered it. And then they all lived happily ever after. That is the full NS story, nuff said.
  17. A poster for one of the Motown Review shows ............
  18. Any chance that we can get to see it ? Take a photo of it & post that photo on here !!
  19. ..... OR ........ just maybe it was at Wigan Casino ........... watch out there are loads of fake posters doing the rounds out there !!
  20. Fats Domino at the Wigan Casino ......... NO, sorry, that's the Wig Wam Casino
  21. The UK Government are getting ready to sell off Royal Mail. So everything that increases profits is being done at present & nothing that takes any time (getting packages signed for) is being undertaken. .......AND when it's sold off & run by a private outfit ......... THINGS WILL ONLY GET WORSE !!!
  22. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LH5tYPaO4Go An out & out early 60's US pop record ......... soul content = ZERO Where was this spun ?, glad I never remember hearing it played out.
  23. My big worry is that the missus has no idea on values. I collect all soul / gospel 45's /LPs /CDs that I like so many in my big collection are worth very little but some are worth loads. She says I have to sort them into separate boxes, but by value. Loads of boxes of 45's that have decent values & the same for 12"ers and LPs. When I pop my cloggs, then (& only then) will she have any idea which ones to take to a specialist dealer and which ones to take to the charity shop. Of course, she could just be planning to run away with the milkman & want to know which 500+ records to have it away with !!!
  24. He ran the Now (the O’Jays, Masqueraders) and Energy labels (the Valentine Brothers), so can't be all that bad.
  25. Two of Motown's best female groups on together at the Apollo in Harlem in 1966 (?) ........
