  1. Thread promted by the resurgent post “Celebs who are OR Have been into Northern Soul” Perhaps done before...but how about Film/TV stars that also became NS related artists without knowing! Just two to start... Nichelle Nichols - It's Been On My Mind Connie Stevens - Tick Tock
  2. One of the Holidays was married to one of The Adorables. be warned though...i’m Having a bit of a mid- information day today. So check it.
  3. I'm pretty sure David and you Kegsy are correct. Firstly-i've listened again to the Standout side all the way through. It's likely they are the girls with the guitars. Secondly, i have probably remembered and re-read some stuff i was doing on The Debonaires, plus The Debanaires (backing vocals on Spencer Stirling's Audrey sides). -and stuff i was doing on The Adorables- and remembered (wrongly) a thread (most likely on SD Forum) which had the Debutantes tied into it. Glad to be corrected.
  4. Strong Foundation on Standout 601 doesn't sound ( to me that is) like a white female garage group
  5. i wasn't thinking of those Debtantes David, but i could have got my faded notes and memories wrong. i think...(sorry i can't be more precise) The Debutants -without an "e" in their name, was possibly an aggregation of some members of The Dobonaires/The Adorables.
  6. I'm going back quite a few years now...so from memory and scruffy notes ....this may not be quite right-but it should start you off if you need to find out more. joyce wilson (joyce vincent) was one of the Debutantes( 3 females.) maybe even Dorothy Garland? they were on (i think) Standout?

  9. the club also owned many records itself (until they went...let's say missing)
  10. I make no comment about the record itself. But 'On Topic' sounds....then
  11. I wonder if what we are missing when we think back is...the wheel, Mecca, Casino, etc, went through at least two (more in some cases, M’s, etc) play/ music/ attendee transitions as they grew. That being the case, I for one often find myself now loving something I hated back then - and vice versa. or is that just rose tinted glasses?
  12. so the OP -but what are the top sounds that maybe haven't had much play or re-release over the years. Well for this... i'm not sure "top sounds" would be a definition for some...but me -hell yeah.
  13. 'WHAT CAN A MAN DO' ...probably most remembered for its A-side - The ShowStoppers
  14. Head to any web site on the Muscle Shoals studios-Quincy, Fame, etc. You’ll find plenty of inspiration.
  15. The passing of Fred Bridges last week was sad. Fred Bridges. a songwriter and a co-founder of the group the Brothers of Soul (this name came about as a result of the riots at the time). He worked to help The Masqueraders, and later road manager for The Four Tops. David Meikle (soul source member @David Meikle) did a wonderful piece in 2013 “The Fred Bridges Story” https://soulfuldetroit.com/web12-fred-bridges/fred-bridges-text/00-fb-introduction.htm

  17. It’Z...time for the “Z’s”. Thanks to all the contributors and those that just dropped by to read/listen. It’s the endZ.
  18. Yipeeee...Yes we're are opening the "Y's I missed them when it was “H”.
  19. eXacerbating not being able to think of an "X" -but we should open "X" up now. I have consulted the video referee and he says “eX” is permissible. Originally a girl group called the Masterettes, but Herb Rooney replaced Penny Carter when she left- So technically a mixed group (at least after 1963).
