Dave Thorley

The list is truely extensive, but here's a few to be going on with, many of these are in the Refro section. Brewster Crew, Exportations, Fourth Day, Smith Brothers, Magnificents, Chuck Armstrong, Five O'clock, Little Rene Scott, Gaslight/Gaslights, Florence Trapp, Final Decisions, Tempting Five, Hunts Determination, K.I.C.

Whats the difference between this and the Age label release, is it a later version.

Larry Hancock's funeral will be at The Word Church on South Miles in Cleveland, Ohio at 11:00am on Monday Jan.10, 2011.

Larry along with Al was also a member of Truth. Larry is center right in photo below.

Sad news that Larry Hancock of the Cleveland group S.O.U.L. has just passed away Tap to view this Soul Source News/Article in full

I know , but if you look on Popsike loads of the Revilot, non of the Jaber release

Although it's sells for less, I think 'Lover come back/Gee you're a pretty thing' - Jaber is much rarer and equally as good double sider.

Cheers for that Chalky, I know Richards stuff is legal. I was replying to the other post about the artists, if they don't own the rights to the songs, it is unlikely they would be paid, but the publishing company or writers will be. Dave

Depends if they own the rights to the songs. I understand Richards stuff is all correctly published and who ever is getting paid.

Hi Guys Tried replying with a Refro clip and got an error message, whats up!!!!!!!!! Dave

The group are from just outside of Detroit, Lou Edwards of 'Talking bout poor folks' fame. Dave Welding put up a piece on them a little while back, Lou has put out a couple of nice CD's in the last 10 years or so.

One of the guys in the band told me that it was, but who knows.

Hi Graham Original copies can sell for £500+ depending on condition. Sold a sealed copy a couple of years ago for £700. But it also got a legal re-issue here in the UK, which you can pick up for £15+, this came with the bonus of 'I was born to love you' on it, which wasn't on the original. Think there are a few copies on Gemm at the moment. Dave

Agree with Sutty, you can buy it now from several sellers for £50-£70

Hi Harry Could well be that he was, it rings a bell with me too. It was George McGregor who told me about Butch and the changes in Gaslights/Gaslight. Mind Butch could have stayed with the group through all it's changes, but maybe not as lead singer. Cheers Dave

a few more, Buddy Miles & The California Raisins, Bay Brothers, Motherload, Kenny G.

Hi Carl I'm with you, we pressed 500 copies of The Rotations last year and all but sold out in a month. Our next release 'Todays Soulful Sound Of Detroit' LP, out in february, will also be on vinyl, Archers in Detroit are currently doing the test pressings for me now. Long live this archaic format, 'Can't beat the thrill of holding a new buy in your hands' or digging through a basement of records looking for that elusive record.

One more I just found at home Superband - M.A.E. from Alabama

I'm sure we've had this before, but keep tripping over more versions. Bristol, Fuqua, Bullock must have earned alot from this song. Here a few new ones to me... Dee Dee Warwick - Call Me LP Downbeats - MCA (Reggae version)

He is sadly now not in the best of health and living in a nursing home. Many of his old buddys call on him and sit with him to chat about back in the day.

I was there the night it happen, The Carstairs was palyed for the first time, someone shouted 'this is the end' and threw himself off the balcony. It was later rumoured to be Pete Smith but this could well be 'urban myth'.
