Mythical....

Didn't Bob Cattaneo supply the pink issues after sourcing who owned the master? My Inferno 7"/12" deal was done with De-Lite Records. They had deal with Gene Redd and volunteered the info that they were sitting on a Tom Moulton remix and did I want it for UK release? Neil

I got some great stuff from Bob Mays..

Last time I spoke to Robert Bateman, both Greg and Jeff were well. Robert showed me a lovely Arista publicity photo of Jeff Perry dedicated to "My Uncle Robert"..how about that for Soul spanning the generations? And it was Robert who produced the demo with vocals by Jeff on his composition "Because Of You" which Robert then shopped to Brunswick for Jackie Wilson to record. Alas, the demo does not seem to exist anymore.

The horrible American who owned the Swan masters and Global in Manchester...was his name Ed Balbier?.. One day before a Ritz All-Dayer they had a sale so we went along and were invited to order from a list., I was wholesaling at the time so ordered (more in hope than anything else) big quantities of titles. He went mad when he saw the amount I wanted and started screaming and swearing at me, I gave him back the same to the astonishment of a watching Pat Brady we had a massive row. He banned me for life there and then. As a parting shot i said "Well if you have only got the one Detroit Sound LP can I still have it" and he went really ballistic. A few years later I released The Four Perfections "I'm Not Strong Enough" on Inferno and as he had relased it already on Cream, he demanded that we cease and desist. Have still got a copy of the telegram from Irving Weinroth to Balbier pointing out that his licence had expired and he should shut up. Funniest dealer has got to Anthony Lewis of Oldies Unlimited in Telford. We used to buy from him all the time and I never get over that if you said you wanted a certain quantity he would not count the quantity, but instead would measure out "two inches worth" or whatever. He was very fair to deal with. I was the very first customer allowed to see him when he moved to Telford from St. Leonards-On-Sea and had memorised on the train all the O-keh titles on Brian Phillips latest list. I got them all and ended up taking loads up to Va-Va's to flog. He appears on TV now as an expert on Massage Parlours.

We brought him over to appear in Blackburn at the Premier of "Srange World Of Northern Soul". He was a bit bemused by the whole Northern Soul thing...refused to go on stage at first, but when he did he blew the place apart. At the time he was working at Toys R US in Los Angeles and he seemed pleased that he had a following in the UK (which he knew nothing about until Ian contacted him) but also upset that it had not led to any financial gain for him. RIP.
