If anybody else had listed that record, they would have been slagged off as fraudsters.

The failed meat salseman Keb Darge 😀 talks about bootlegging and other great anecdotes.

Well done. Anything creative is good for the spirit:) Also for the mods

Such a shame Gregory Porter lost his way after the electric 1960 what and just started singing housewives favourites stuff.

There is one track with 250 million streams jackie Wilson Your Love Keeps Lifting me Higher Be surpised if that gets beaten.

Okay this track was played at the Casino and has the most streams I would say, on Spotify. Anyone guess the track?

https://www.musicliveshere.site/allsite https://www.musicliveshere.site/all/jerry-butler’s-songwriting-workshop Jerry Butler’s Songwriting Workshop 1402 S Michigan Ave. Singer Jerry Butler started his Songwriters Workshop when he needed fast help to prepare tunes to fulfill his recording contract in 1970. Fortunately, Chicago had no shortage of talent, and songwriters gathered at this site to work on material not just for Butler but, as it turned out, also for many others as well as for themselves. The workshop provided the composers with the space and the salaries they needed to develop ideas and also taught musicians about publishing and copyrights. Terry Callier and Larry Wade wrote songs for Callier’s own records as well as for The Dells, most famously the group’s hit, “The Love We Had (Stays on My Mind)” in 1971. Workshop participants Chuck Jackson and Marvin Yancy teamed up to form The Independents (who had a hit with their “Leaving Me” in 1973) before becoming heavyweight producers themselves, especially for Yancy’s wife, Natalie Cole. By 1976, the workshop had dissolved, but Butler believed it had more than served its purpose. The workshop’s songs attest to that belief.

As one of the few who went to the casino in 80/81 and then in London got familiar with the Boy's Own lot. The camaraderie was the same in both and the bickering on each scene:) I remember Maysey from Boy's Own saying when The Trip opened at the Astoria in 88 in London, that was it, it was over. I kind of understood what he meant. Probably the same way as some of you remember when Wigan let in the cameras. Once a genre gets commercialsed the lowest common denomiator prevails. Both scenes like most scenes came from the working class.

Don't ask Keb Darge🙂

Spotify have a donation button where the money goes direct to the artist. The artist has to implement this. Take for example Bettye Swann can maybe Searling get in touch or someone that knows her to get this activated for her. I'd gladly donate £5. She has over 250 000 monthly listners. https://open.spotify.com/artist/0g3EsNvUCwgpsdkAiIC50W

This is a great shuffler.
