Will do John .... also Joey Kingfish done a version , spoke to Joey about a month ago ..nice Fellow .

Spoke to Steve Calloway last night ..he still says it's Mancha , when I'm next over Detroit I do intend to Vist Steve Mancha who is now in a rest home ..but same old story we are talking ... its been nearly 50yrs or so and most of the artist's do forget alot what they have done ... it happend when i put The Elgin's back to come over in 2007 for Northampton .. I told Yvonne the live track list ..when i said " My love for your love " she didn't know it and said it wasn't her ..i said it was only till i played her the track she said my god ..i totally forgot about that recording .

great verson ! although i don't think best .

It is Steve Mancha an early Cut which That i meant ... If i recall Right , Steve Calloway told me and a few others in Detroit , have to agree Steve Mancha was a great Detroit Soul singer .

Filmed at warwick soul club Nolan Porter and Stone Foundation part of Nolan's recent tour to Soul venues in June , at the time its all hard work but now i look back and glad i did it . Great Interview with Nolan in this months Scootering .

Replied and explained what Ive been informed by Steve Calloway , yes they never seen a copy of the 45 until steve calloway came over in 2008 and Max showed him his copy although they was often told they got a 45 out . ps We Recorded Did my baby call With Steve Calloway last yr in The studio .

send me your wants Mate may be able to help you .

Thanks Mike:thumbsup:

Pete CP called it the Track " Baby Have Mercy on me " i often wonder why they they called it that anyway instead of Suspicion ,

Your right Mate the Original acetate did have " Baby Have Mercy On Me " on it , right found my Interview with CP Spencer and Bill talking about this track , I will have to upload from Tape to cd .. anyone got any ideas ?

reading this back over and over .. it's really sank into night what this really Means .... Max as gone and i will never like most on this thread will never see him or work or DJ him again and to me this as broken my heart more tonight , I Used to phone him up .. hey Max What you doing on such a date .. Nothing so far .. Right I'm trying this ..you know I don't do that well but least i try .. Chalk's it's about the trying That Count's he used to say ..count me in . One other thing I've learnt on this sad Moment .. No matter how much Banter .... or friendship we have on The Northern soul Scene we all are one Big Family and I'm proud of that .. Blue max was the Dad in the West Midlands .

Bang On

One thing i would say is please keep the stories coming as the family are reading every one and i know its helping with with the healing process I Know Mart as posted the Pictures on facebook from last years Children in Need Night , well early on in the night i asked a few if they have ever seen Max on the Dance floor and they said no I then went to Max and said when I'm DJING I'm getting you on the floor .. He said your joking cause of my knees , later on in the night I said Hey Max I've got £50 so far to get you Dancing .. his Face was was a picture what about my Knees I'm going away to New Zealand soon .. don't worry i said you will be ok if you can't go I will in your place ... .. he said No I can't do it .. Then he said sod it Ok I will do it but what Record shall i dance to .. as Max asked me a few time to sell my Joe Matthews on kool Kat so i thought of this ... Ye Ye Ye He Replied .. Never forget that time when he came on the Floor to the Cheers in total I think we raised £60 for getting him on the Floor and thats the type of guy Max was ! oh by the way he did end up Buying My Joe Matthews .. He played it at the last Jct 2 Sunday session and he put his Thumb up to me. Once again Thank you Max for the Great great and your Slogan was ....... " GOODTIMES" .

My one hour spot at Nuneaton this Sat will be dedicated to Mr Max Millward ..... Nice one Paul Every Nolan porter show over the next few weeks will be Dedicated to The One and Only " BLUE MAX "! and I've added a tribute to Max in The live Show .

Try Pete Smith he had my copy .

Up date sadly it's true RIP ALI OLLIE WOOSON .

Just a up date ..... After a call and posting on here I went on Soulful Detroit and it seems Ali could be still alive on a life support Machine as anyone else heard ?
