now that the record has been revealed through bad puns, can someone explain to me what it has to do with sheep? Am I thick or is it a british english vs. american english thing? I was trying to think of wolf-related records.

I interviewed Rudy on the radio 11/2007. I talked to him a couple months ago.

the implements is actually the first version of "look over", before the o'jays. The o'jays made it a hit though. i agree there's a vague similarity to "look on your face" but not much else. I think floyd smith shopped his song around to different people. It's likely the satin version was first because floyd took a lot of talent from Gary, IN and Lennie Satin was from there I think. WHO IS REGGIE SATIN?

who is reggie satin?

I hear nothing similar in the implements track, I'm not sure what you're talking about. Who is "Reggie" Satin? I'm very interested in Chicago soul but don't know a Reggie Satin. Thanks.

also, for what it's worth, I've seen the sheet music for the John McKinney version (the one that got released as "the magnetics" when the magnetics are not backing him but some girls) and Johnny Dollar (who does a version on Fised) has writing credits on that. So who knows.

satin is Lennie Satin who had a 45 on FIP. What does this track have to do with Look Over Your Shoulder?

thank you

Sad news that Rudy Negron, lead singer of the Mystics on Teako died this week. He sang lead on "That's the kind of love", one of the greatest sweet soul records to come out of Chicago.

Hi. Last Sunday I interviewed a singer named Bobby Buchanan, who was a member of the St. Louis group the Earles, Inc. and BJB. His group cut a bunch of excellent records and played an important part in the St. Louis music scene of the 60s and 70s. You can listen to the interview on my interviews page at https://www.sittinginthepark.com/interviews.html thanks, Bob

Hi. Can anyone tell me what the flipside title is of memphis - inside my love - west coast 1523? thanks in advance.

also, if i were set saleing this i would want at least $250 i think

Yeah, I think the guy knows more about Jungle than anything else. Let me give some more background as to how I think the video is stupid. I think there are some interesting issues about ownership / copyright related to the record. For example, Spencer has 100% writing credit but it's really sort of a medley of Amen, We're a winner, We're rolling on, etc. (the Winstons had just left as the backing touring band of the Impressions, which is why they had an earlier record on Curtom). Spencer shouldn't really be 100% writer if it incorporates all those old songs. And, who really "wrote" the drum break -- probably the drummer himself and not Spencer. And Spencer clearly doesn't own any of the actual master rights to the metromedia recording. The guy who made the video clearly knows nothing about the difference between songwriter / publishing of a song and the actual master recording, ownership of both, and the complicated ways that both of these things interact with sampling. The video is very long and the guy spends more time discussing sample libraries that incorporate the track than these more relevant issues. The "ah-men" thing and the pressing the whole thing onto a record and playing it, combined with the fact that he made a very long video that says very little about some complicated issues, makes it over-the-top pretentious.

Maybe (although Tim Brown is a major dealer, right?). It is rarer than many 300 pound records. I'm just giving you what I've seen, on ebay. I think I've seen it for sale 3 times which is not that often.

I've seen this video before, I think it's awful, pretentious (he can't even say the name of the track correctly, it's not "AH-men", it's an impressions cover and they don't say it that way) and uninformed about copyright / ownership issues. The wikipedia article is written decently though.

I think you may be wrong actually, as my source is someone who talked to Prentice Anderson of Lee and the Leopards and the Proto Jays, and my source knew the Leopards were from Toledo. Do you want me to follow up with my source to confirm? Thanks.

this doesn't help, but apparently this group was from akron, OH

my picks: give your baby a standing ovation stay in my corner (long version) bring back the love of yesterday oo i love you always together it's all up to you just as long as we're in love dells + dramatics - love is missing from our lives

If a 45 got play / was a hit they would press more of that record to sell, they didn't just press all copies of a number and that was it. They were probably repressing the record as the fantastic four were one of the more successful rictic artists.

fascinators on bombay is a totally unrelated group to the fascinators on burn

hard to find, but I don't know if I've ever seen it sell for more than $150

the sunday record is the same alteen label. there is also buster benton on the label, johnny mccall, and I think earl duff on cee dee is the same label. i think it's also related to the winner label that elvin spencer is on.

thanks, I think Brian is a member. I actually only get 80 minutes of the 90 minute show recorded on a disk, sorry the last two songs are missing!

that was the photo and info I posted. The Baby Miracles and Young Folk are the same group. The previous lead of the baby miracles (Marilyn McThune) became the lead singer of the Ivorys after she had a growth spurt and no longer looked like a little kid, Madeline replaced her.
