A bit of a lead....the label was owned by James Chavis. I cleaned out all of his stock at a store in Wilmington, Delaware. I had 500 copies Like A Bee- The Spiedells but only one of The Empires which was sold to Tim Brown for £400 in 1990. Kev

The track was recorded and manufactured in 1965. George Blackwell pressed it for Sammy Campbell. Source: SoultripUSA 2006 but told to me in 1977 by Sammy when recording with Ian Levine as Tyrone Ashley. Goldsoul put the group back together for the first time in April 2006 at the Hilton, New Brunswick, NJ

I did-it was difficult to sell. £6 I think.

No idea where the first Shrine single surfaced from. What I can say is, following my hit in Baltimore in 1978, I found Shirley Edwards, Ray Pollard multiple copies. That was the first time I had ever seen the label. The JD Bryant was discovered in '81 when I cleaned out a guys appartment in New York. His landlord ordered him to sell them or be evuicted as the ceiling below was starting to crack. Off topic....if I had kept what I found in the Jay D load, you would be staring at half a million quid today. Every Columbia,Epic,MGM,Decca,Coral,Swan demo imagineable! 250,000 45's for a grand!!
-
Little Ann....Surely a discovery by John Anderson around 1978? who gave it to Richard. Andy 'Tats' Taylor then discovered who it was by several years later.
-
Hawksbee and Jacobs use Bo Junior's-Coffee Pot as their theme. Featured on the Hipshaker album from Goldmine. Andy Townsend and Mike Parry use Bongo Rock-Incredible Bongo Band US Pride/UK MGM Billy's Bag as mentioned is a current background filler along with Jimmy Fraser. Obviously one of the behind the scene's team is fascinated by the Mod/Northern cd's.

Trying to be realistic....and this from promoters who see real crowds; THAT DRIVING BEAT- WILLIE MITCHELL is certainly the most popular revived 45, largely due to Pete Roberts and his incredible success at the Wheel. And...as a new giant...BACK SLOP-BABY EARL Both appeal to the masses right now!
-
No, they are different. The Showstoppers now reside in Rhode Island with the lead singer attending SoultripUSA 2006. The Four Perfections were high school kids led by Marvin Steals. The song incidentally was recorded at Cameo Parkway's studio in late 1967. Irononically they failed to meet each other while at the event. I did manage to reunite the original engineer on the session(Joe Tarsia) with Marvin. I expect most of the musicians became MFSB. Kev

A real surprise Barbara West going down at Wigan, it's so far removed from the playlist back then. I remember it as a Soul pack 45 from Contempo around 72. Someone else had a lot of it too.... FL Moore? Either way it's a great side.
-
As Marvin Steals(lead singer 4 Perfections) said to me, why is the UK interested in this song when I won a Grammy for Could It Be I'm Falling In Love!
-
I doubt that one. Soussan was circulating acetates in 1974. I don't remember anyone being at Val's in that year except John Anderson.
-
Anyone owning up to discovering '(The Walls In My Room are only) Six by Six- Tony Turner?
-
Bob.... Truly great stuff. Kev
-
Last hour at the Mecca methinks for Lainie Hill(Elaine Hill by the way on Myspace) Vel-Vets..... Either IL or RW via Simon S. Mecca/ Wigan not the Torch Edward Hamilton. Unsure
-
Eddie. Apologies.. I get so used to saying 'failed Wigan'. It may have been played at the Mecca, but I had endless copies in 1975. It was very difficult to sell. The very awful(IMO) Superbs- Happiest Girl In The World(from the same company)though was easy to sell! The mid 70's were a little wayward. John Poole met me in 1976. I gave him a choice.. Nikki Blu on Parkway for £20 or The Professionals Thats Why I Love You.....he chose Nikki Blu as it was more popular that year!
-
Eddie. Skip Jackson on Dot Mar came from me in 1975. It's not a failed Wigan spin, as I never played it! I had quantity from Journal Square records, owners of Catamount.
