I thought she lived in New York early 60s first before moving to Chicago recording as Deena Johnson in New York on wild deuce and other labels

You never know Although Jo Armstead was mainly based in New York and Chicago in the 60s

Thanks for that. I wonder if he was aware that is 45s are still loved and collected by Soul fans I’m sure he must of because of the Kent CD release of I’m so thankful which was released before he passed I still can’t understand why he only made three 45s at the time. His singing voice is lovely, such a shame he didn’t release anything else Perhaps we will never know why He left us with 4 special and amazing 45s IMO Good enough eh

Might as well post his singles in the unlikely event that someone doesn't know them

Thanks Chalky , that’s cleared this up for me I didn’t realise his name wasn’t Eddie Hill but is Eddie Armstead That sorts of explains that love the video of the Thelma 45 b side obviously the a side at the time Shame he didn’t record more records I first heard nothing sweeter on that Detroit Goldmine lp that came out early 90s, mark bicknell gave me a tape around same time with you really got the best of me on it, loved those 2 ever since So recently picked up I can hear you crying just so I have all his 45s , but that’s a great overlooked record as-well IMO The M-S 45 and the Gee Gee 45 must have sold ok ish for him as you still see them for sale in beat up condition Thanks again Chalky

I have 4 singles by Eddie Hill, you got the best of me on Thelma, Nothing Sweeter than you babe on M-S I can hear you crying on Gee Gee and I’m so thankful on Kent Select imo all magnificent records my question is, does anyone know who he was and any history about him? I can’t find anything online about Eddie Hill - Nothing whatsoever Such a great voice , and seemingly only 4 released (three in the 60s) How did Ady C find the track he released on Kent, any background story about this release? Im just interested if anyone knows anything about him as at the min he is a total mystery when searching online. Thanks in advance

Yes , Nail on head i could not agree more

yes - looking at that lot I agree Fair point.

. When I retire I’ll be on here all day

I would love to be able to. I work 5 days a week travelling from north wales to Manchester every day average day is 12 hours time is one luxury I do not have

Will you concentrate on Pat Brady’s auction results then I would love to see them every week as well as Mr Manships

I’m not understanding you if you are into collecting records it’s only natural you are going to be interested in what is happening with all things music Including auction results Same with car tans discussion forums People with interest discussing all aspects , especially values achieved at auction fans talking about their hobbies what’s the issue ?

Everyone who is interested in records love to talk records weather in the pub or online what’s the issue?

This is a great tribute to him I found on you tube from all the industry people , it’s a trailer for a film about Freddie Gorman Did it ever get released,? I haven’t seen it
