    Strangely enough, the original credits for "I Love You Madly" were Ric- Tic publishers-
  2. The Yank
    I thought that had to be the same Goldsby- Thanks for the confirmation !
  3. The Yank
    The Melvin Davis was getting Detroit airplay in September, 1966 and the Steve Mancha charted in Billboard in July, 1966.
  4. The Yank
    Is this the same Goldsby ?
  5. The Yank
    I got that picture off the internet so chances are- it probably is your copy !

    He produced this one - Oops- wrong pic in last post -

    Here's a pic of the the South African release -

    Adam White mentioned Loucye being on stage when the Miracles got their gold record, here's a picture from that event -

    According to discogs, it's an "unofficial" release -

    There are Canadian releases but they're a little strange. The Bell Logo is at the top but, there's also a Mala name on the label -

    The blue label does show up on the later 12,000 series which started about 1968 and lasted until the end of the label. -

    A few posts ago someone mentioned things lost in translation. Can someone help me out with this description - "bongo riddle rare ...soul" ??

    Coming out as a Kent single at the end of August -

    About 99% sure it was album only . It's on the Dionn and Top and Bottom albums.

    ABKCO put out a 4 disc set in 2005- most of the songs are the big Pop hits but on Volume 3 and 4 there's some decent Soul and some great Northern (Frankie Beverly and Christine Cooper "Heartaches..." and a few others-

    Found two sales on popsike -

    What's the sound quality like? In her book "Berry, Me And Motown", Raynoma said she used a copy from a Times Square Record shop as her master.

    I went through my box of Motown promo's from the 60's and I would say at least 90% had either promotion copy or audition copy or disk jockey copy. I did find 2 Supremes promos with no promo/audition/disc jockey copy on them. I don't think Motown would make special copies for jukeboxes and not mark them.

    I agree. But does the Telma on the package refer to a singer named Telma (Telma Hopkins ) or a record company ? It doesn't make much sense that they credit Gwen Owens twice and then write Telma (referring to a record company instead of a singer) instead of Thelma and then use a song cut at Golden World and send it to Thelma Records .
  21. The Yank
    Are you sure that's a RSG pressing of "My Guy"? I thought she was pressing them while the record was a hit. The copy you show is a reissue from 1970.
  22. The Yank
    In the liner notes to "Pied Piper Presents ...Detroit Soul", Shelley Haims said he thought the lead singer of "This Heart..." was Telma Hopkins.
  23. The Yank
    I doubt that's Martha- in a few places there are some resemblances but that's about it. I don't think Martha was working with Groovesville either. But one other Motown artist did- David Ruffin made "Still In My Heart" with Don Davis in 1966.
  24. The Yank
    Does the Telma on the above package sound like Thelma (aka Telma ) Hopkins who was with the Debonaires?
  25. The Yank
    The Pat Lewis and Martha Reeves (?) versions of "Hit And Run" are both on you tube.
