  1. Looks as though it's a bootleg, there's a lot more releases most are marked here as boots https://www.discogs.com/label/266087-Delta-14
  2. Again and please excuse my repeating can we now that is sorted can we get back to the writers anomaly please
  3. I know it's been along time this thread finished but we are sadly no where forward as to the man who was the Palmer Jimmy Mack Of course there was another release might or might not help and the Jimmy Mack "D" on Northwest
  4. Can we now that is sorted can we get back to the writers anomaly please
  5. I found his acting stuff on Wikki https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_McEachin
  6. There is also the matter of whether Marvin Gaye's family here it and get unhappy like they did with "blurred Lines" and another potential court case looms (although probably not enough "money" in it) The exact same re-issue thing has happened with this tune (prices are a bit less (I got mine for £7), but at least the re-issue is different https://www.discogs.com/Thee-Lakesiders-Si-Me-Faltaras-Tu/master/1490259
  7. Apparently not it is James McEachin https://fanpix.famousfix.com/gallery/james-mceachin/p34808839
  8. I would like to ask if anyone knows why the writers credits were so different on the same release here in the UK on Jay Boy Was this just a mess-up or was there another reason ?.
  9. I bought my first record £10 (single) with my dinner tokens from school, who was the mug (bootleg copy of Rufus Lumley I'm standing (I didn't know what a bootleg was then) inflation says £10 in 1977 → £60.96 in 2018
  10. There is a danger here that the next press might just not sell as much, I would steer well clear of any advice personally
  11. Blackpoolsoul posted a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    After some digging I noticed the name Frank Fioravanti kept appearing everywhere on the Omega, Mel-Omega and Sound Gems labels It's probs well known but thought would share in case and as I don't do facebook someone might want to contact him and get the credit for his story or write "another book" I found this thread discussing stuff
  12. Mick H is the expert on the Salt and Pepper record which was Recorded in Bangkok, he used to really annoy me playing it Kent released it
  13. There are 3 images on Discogs of the Detroit group but the New Jersey group are listed with them (uptite) https://www.discogs.com/artist/696048-The-Superlatives-3
  14. Too right but if it is released as a 7" (my advice for what it's worth) take out the chat at the beginning DJ's won't want that and have to cue it in after the chat
  15. Thanks so many threads and so useful
  16. Does your book say who Bernie Williams was (no relation to the Blue Notes?) there's nothing after digging around
  17. There had always been discussion about this group being different to the Detroit group This is the info I have from digging around This Superlatives were an all male group from New Jersey:St. Julian (pee wee) Bonaparte (lead)David Jones (first tenor)Leon Stuckey (second tenor)Marvin (mousey) Williams (bass)Gerald Applewhite (baritone)Both the tracks, 'i still love you' and 'we're so lonely' were recorded in 1966, at Cameo Parkway in Philadelphia. The Detroiters were apparently James Edwards, Billy George Jones, James Stuberfield, Ray Took and Rip Washington. It would be nice to know and rectify as I cannot be certain and need your help (I could have missed it on another thread!!!)
  18. I have to say that it's a belter/superb/monster tune and I can see lot's of old men like me peering over a Dj's deck and asking "what the.... is that". Plans should be made to rebuild "The Casino" and they can play this on a loop for me and I won't need 7 or 8 pints to try and get out of my chair to dance to this tune........ What's even more fantastic is he's French, from Bordeaux.....seriously this man can take the US on !!!!
  19. Sean there is little info on Jean and or Barbara and there was another discussion about Shiptown and they might be able to help I fund this on google and wondered sadly if it might be Jean https://www.legacy.com/obituaries/portsmouth-dailytimes/obituary.aspx?n=jean-battle&pid=175583560&fhid=30637
  20. I just happened to come across this sad article from December 2017 which seems to have been missed https://eu.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/detroit-city/2017/12/06/motown-great-eddie-holland-penniless-tax-bill/108383710/
  21. I am not a facebook person.....however I have found Professor Watkins so someone can contact her to see if she is the same lady https://www.facebook.com/Professor-Bernice-Watkins-210986472759695/
  22. About time the tunes were here Perhaps we can back on to this thread now we have sorted the Business with Frank
  23. It appears, I think, that Chalky meant that it's Frank Wilson using a different name (on Tollie) and not related in anyway to Dusty Wilson, but I am sure he will explain for you
  24. You're younger and better looking than me
