  1. The Straker's version came out about 6 months before the Shipp 45-
  2. Record World July 24,1971-
  3. Not 100% sure they are the same people but, there were a Claude and Carl Feaster in the Doo Wop group the Chords. Claude is one of the writers of the Doo Wop Classic "Sh-Boom".
  4. From Cashbox July 31, 1971-
  5. Serenaders' Cashbox review from Feb. 15, 1964 issue. The Sammy Turner was a "Best Bet" in the Feb. 29, 1964 issue of Cashbox.
  6. According to Dave Moore's book "The Philly Sound", Bette Renne is Betty Renee Garvin. She was an early member of the Bluebelles but, left the group before they started recording. Two members of the Thrillettes were Sally and Vivian Hicks who were former members of the Femm-eles who recorded for the Kay and Bo-Kay-Lo labels
  7. I don't know anything else about the group. If anyone has more info- please post.
  8. The 1st article is from Cashbox May 11, 1963. The 2nd article from Feb. 8, 1964 mentions a Bobby Valenti 45. Does anyone know if this was part of the Jobete N.Y. ?
  9. Here's a few more songs from the Motown/ Brill Building period- 1) Sammy Turner - "Give It Up Baby" (Kerr / Barnes/ Turner) 2) Serenaders- "Change Of Pace" ( Kerr/ Barnes) 3) Serenaders- "I'll Be Lonely" (Kerr/ Barnes) 4) Serenaders- "Only Mine" (Kerr/ Barnes/ Wilson/ Curry) 5) Serenaders- "Say, Say, Baby" (K/B/W/C)
  10. I can answer some of your original questions. These songs were unreleased during the Cavaliers time at RCA - 1) "It's Guaranteed" - recorded Feb. 23, 1967 2) "Ooh, It Hurts Me" - also recorded Feb. 23, 1967 3) "Without Someone To Tell Me" recorded - July 18, 1966 4) "We Go Together" ( A remake of the Moonglows song) recorded with and without a rap intro All info is from these Kent CDs- "Rare, Collectable and Soulful Vol. 1 and 2 and the 3 Pied Piper CD's- "A New Concept in Detroit Soul", "Follow Your Soul" and "Finale" .
  11. Do you mean the Chandeliers ?
  12. RCA and Columbia did release 33 rpm singles in the 60's but the format never caught on -
  13. I believe it was a typo. The Don't Forget The Motor City website has the credits as Barnes and Kerr. There is an unreleased acetate of a Norma Jenkins version of the song.
  14. I found this in Record World- the article is more about Showtime Productions but does mention Jean's single on Red Lite-
  15. I have a few 10" acetates that play at 45 rpm BUT they're from the 70's.
  16. The other big tip off is the acetate itself- look how far the grooves are spread out. I don't have one 60's or 70's (pre -Disco) acetate that has the grooves spread out so far- they are usually the same size as they would be on the 45.
  17. #58- Deeelicious= Yumie (yummy?) #63- Weather Influencer = Arctic #87- BBQ flavor = Hickory #92- Bricks and mortar of the Canidae = Top Dog #94= Waker Upper= Soul Clock
