George Clinton told me there are a number of unreleased masters he recorded with/for Gene Redd that were planned to release on Stephanye.

Am so sad to hear that John has passed. Since meeting him at a Skegness Soul Weekender and getting to know him at Detroit-A-Go-Go John had become a friend. He told me about 3 weeks ago he did not have long to live. The doctors had informed him he would not last longer than August 28. John was determined to prove them wrong but sadly that was not to be. Over the last year we kept talking vaguely about me completing interviews with John. He pointed out I had better get on the case urgently without an iota of self pity. Doing so was at the same time saddening but at the same time in a strange way a happy experience as John’s amazing stories and the humorous self deprecating way he told them kept making me smile. Even when John was terribly ill he kept asking on behalf of Lori and himself how Marie was after her procedure for nose cancer. Time will not pass you by John. You will be missed and remembered. Love, Neil and Marie

I also released it on Inferno, licenced it from Bill Downs at Right On! The Northern scene was imploding so was very small pressing.

Grooveville Music Acetate 10 inch one sided That’s Why I Love this is unreleased take off The Professionals “That’s Why I Love You” as released on Groove City. Different take than any now released version. Title says That’s Why I Love and no artist credit. These surfaced from the spate of Grooveville Music acetates and tapes sold in 2017 in Detroit by nephew of Don Davis & Willie Davis. There are 2 known acetates of this (brilliant) take and this is best condition of the pair. This is clean and plays really well. The acetates were done by Grooveville Music, the publishing arm of Grooveville. £4,000 contact me on - neilrushton2@btinternet.com
