YEP POINT NOTED GEORGE SEEMS TO BE SOME CONFUSION AS TO WHETHER OR NOT SHE WORKED AT CKLW -IVE AMENDED LOL!!! WOULD BE GOOD IF ANYONE CAN CONFIRM? CKLW was in Windsor, Ontario across the river from Detroit. All of northen Ohio could hear it across Lake Erie. Listened to it often from 1969-72 BTW this is of course NOT the Bill Moss from Columbus, OH of Capsoul (and Bell) records fame.

Got me stumped -but would not be surprised if there did exsist BOLADIAN was first and foremost a Gospel person hence the hits he had on the label with the Clarke Sisters etc,I understand he still does re-issues of his back catalogue also? The push on the gospel stuff was definetly influenced by Martha Jean Steinberg -[the queen]who as youll know had a strong influence via WJLB in Detroit [point amended]. BAZ A REALLY GOT ME THINKING NOW AS HE ALSO LAUNCHED THE SOUNDS OF GOSPEL IMPRINT BUT CANT FIND ANY REFERNCE TO BILL MOSS?

HELLO CHRIS PAID $230 FOR MY COPY IF THAT HELPS IT WAS MINT AS WELL!!!BLOODY GREAT TUNE IMO!!! BAZ A

FANTASTIC STUFF LOVE THE TRACK -LOOK FORWARD TO THE INFORMATION!!! BAZ A the Nombres aka Willie and the Nombres aka 7 Nombres were Latino guys from Lorain, OH, a working class city on the shore of Lake Erie about 40 miles west of downtown Cleveland. They put out 7-8 45s and an LP between 1970 and 1979. "What's Going On" is from 1978, I don't remember what it was, just not anything I would want to listen to often. They recorded a few songs more than once. I think their best record is their 1st and rarest 45 "Listen People" on Day-Wood. Day-Wood co-founder Bob Davis was their 'manager' and set up Beth records as a D-W 'subsidiary' (I use quotes because these operations were strictly back of the envelope stuff). Info on some of their pressings can be found here: https://www.buckeyebeat.com/bounty.html Later tonight I can post the Nombres discography

why name drop to get credability-doesnt that speak volumes? I could name drop all day DAVID RUFFIN-MARVIN JUNIOR-BOBBY WOMACK-ETC ETC ALL PLAYED ON OVO !!!! BAZ A. Ive done many a gig with the likes of Rob Smith, Soul Sam, the late Derek Allen, Kev Roberts, etc, if I need to name drop to get any credibility, I hope they will do. Mobile jock? I think not, as I said before somewhere, Ive been in the radio industry as a presenter for almost as long as I can recall, I dont need gigs, but thanks for your kind thoughts.

Most admitt I done really well in some of the gospel shops in Jacksonville /Tampa but that was 92,i had a really good tip for a guy in dontown Orlando also but when i turned up it was more than risky -so i let it be!!! found some really nice stuff in the spanish quarter of Miami but was well escorted with a local who knew the score -if memory serves me right -i found some nice rarish 45s in a shop which adjoined a barbers shop-was all a bit weired buit got some nice gordy promos etc!! Good memories -id be highly surprised if there was any happy hunting now? BAZ A

the eddie ray track really is a little gem-someone get it its a tremendous slice of late sixties crossover-tipped this a while back spun it at Burnley it was so well recieved-great record that will have its day imo. BAZ A
