The latest Northern Connections episode, it's #33 in this long running series from Kenb Northern Soul Connections #33 - The lnvaders / E.Lampkins Figuring out the participants of, and then 'attaching' them to, Earth Record Co F/W 18740 A-B has been a tricky business! The result has mainly fallen to investigating a mash-up of USA geography, people time & place, and combining it with some intuitive wild ass guesswork. There was a number of differing Louisiana 'Invaders' (plus at least 15 "Invaders" bands on 45Cat.com) around at the time including a five member 9th graders rock group, aged 14 to 15 yrs old that i've rejected as candidates. Whether The Invaders individually named below came out of the Bethany Baptist Church Invaders is hard to say. So as much as it makes sense to me, the findings are inconclusive as to whether those written about (here) are the participants on 'Music Turn Me Loose /The Theme'. You decide...

not sure what you want to know? artist, 45, year, etc...BUT being that the label is Owings Mills, MD, the book Baltimore Sounds by Joe Vaccarino has Ernie Atkinson (keyboard/vocal) as a 1966-1969 group member of Stan & the Seoul Survivors (formerly 7 Dimensions).

I never met Bobby. And i can accept both accounts of Bobby by the two posters (although i do admit the use of "screw" in the context it was used, isn't one i'd ever use) When i was researching Ella Woods/Miss Lady/Soultown etc, for the published soul source article back in Oct 2021 i did come across Bobby Sanders. One 1965 account has the 22yr old Bobby turning away one man and one 17yr old juvenile from his door, only for the two to return with a gun and force another resident to take them to Bobby's apartment. The two men took $200 from Bobby and shot him in both legs, causing compound fractures. Which were treated at the Central Receiving Hospital. The two men could have known that Bobby carried money and chanced their arm, in which case he was a 'true' victim OR the two men may have had a 'beef' with Bobby ( based on the fact they rerturned). Curiously i never found an account for the charges, any trials, or outcome? the Music (business) in the 60's and early 70's was a tough and sometimes dirty business. Stuff got done by people that probably wouldn't have got done in later life.

Doh… I can be a bit thick, and a bit stupid, but not usually both together.

Three Degrees-The French Connection. slight topic drift https://intothemild.com/2015/01/20/the-french-connection/

I’m no expert on boots, but I have a Connie Francis oldie on a similar/ same label imprint.perhaps though “your 45” may not be “right”. All I can say is I have a near identical label.( but not with that track on it)
-
The label variant is pucker…there are better experts on here who would know whether it’s a boot.
-
i know a bit about the label, but can't figure why the numbering 'is-as-it-is' (the last 3 that is)? Anyone know the significance, Thanks in advance. ( credit Discogs for attached view).

This should be interesting. Attica America’s Bloodiest Prison Uprising. Tonight 2nd May (2023) Not least because quite a bit of 'our' music came from this...Willie & West, Archie Shepp https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001llf2

I remembered...and just checked that in Boba's interview with Delroy Bridgeman (he) said The Valiants, 'Tell me Tell me what you gonna do' (Gordon Keith produced) was licensed to Destination Records. I wonder if it ever ventured out on Steel Town. Also, Delroy & Soloman Art was on background overdubs of Big Boy, after the Jacksons had recorded it.

I'd leave a venue if there were people in baggy pants & towels hangng from their belts. i'd leave a venue if 'the wedding party' were in, if the venue was playing DILYIID,etc. It says a lot about the venue and the people that are attending. I don't care who dances...as long as they make their own way to the dance floor -no mobility scooters on dance floors.. Inclusivity & tolerance in these matters ( Northern Soul) are over-rated. People tend to reflect & judge the 60's/70's & 80's 'scene' by todays standards. Not for me. I want to keep my memories in tact. None of which would include someone on a Mobility Scooter on the dance floor. Harsh you may feel, but it's my choice & opinion.
-
Why is that?...quite simply i do not want to be at a venue where motor scooters are on the dance floor. I'm 69. When i can't dance anymore i'll stop. Nothing at all to do with inclusivity.
-
if i was in a venue and a mobility scooter 'rider' was on the dance floor, i'd know i had made a bad decision about the venue, and leave. OR i'd gone to sleep and woken up in Benidorm I am starting to think this is a wind-up, and i'm the only one not getting the joke!
-
In the venue, yes. on the dance floor no.
-
there is a Canadian 45 on 45cat.com https://www.45cat.com/record/wrc32267, but no sound file.
-
well...we've got a tough run in now, but 3 points against The Tigers (Hyde Utd) tommorow will help us stay up! Come on Celts.

Northern Soul Connections #32 - Disciples of Soul View full article

The latest Northern Connections episode #32 from Kenb Northern Soul Connections #32 i.e. that is Disciples of Soul Disciples of Soul-Phantom The Disciples of Soul vocalists on 'Together' & 'That's The Way Love Goes' were Bill Ferrell, Steve McKeown, and Bud Rand. They were under the management of Jeff Reed (Rand & McKeown names you can find on the Phantom label & credits) and the sides were recorded in the summer of 1968 and released in Feb 1969. Whenever I've listened to RI 2755 B-side 'Together' it has always sounded so close to the lead vocals of The Intruders release. That might be because both Rand & McKeown were in The Intruders, before the band grew larger (nine members i think) and changed its name to The Disciples of Soul.
