Trying to update some stuff need a few discographies and some help - GWP

Four 45's were issued on GWP in Japan...sadly one of them was Al Hirt.

Oh! The joys of label collecting!

don't know how this fits in the numbers but i have this:

ALA S-20 - Family - Wallflower / Father/Son Song

It's from 1983. "Family" is Chris James of the Natural Four plus his kids. he told me ALA was run by richard pryor. Totally unrelated, but someone else recently told me that AVI was run by liberace.

Mickey And The Soul Generation - How Good Is Good B/W Get Down Brother

That's on Mr G. Same label? Texas? I assume not, although I've not really thought about it...

Edited June 24, 200916 yr by James Trouble

Nope 12" only

Oh! The joys of label collecting!

Which were t'others Dave and have you got them?

I dug out some acetates for you, i just need to find where I put them!

Baz, There's also GWP's Grapevine label that had these two great releases on it.

Ady

TAYLOR, DEBBIE Stop GWP GRAPEVINE 202

TAYLOR, DEBBIE Don't Nobody Mess With My Baby GWP GRAPEVINE 202

PERSIANS, The I Can't Take It Anymore GWP GRAPEVINE 201

PERSIANS, The Detour GWP GRAPEVINE 201

UP153 Debbie Taylor - Don't Mess With My Baby / Stop

UP159 Hesitations - Yes I'm Ready / That's no way to treat a girl

UP193 Persians - Detour / I Can't Make It Anymore

...and an Al Hirt 45 that is currently 'filed' in my lock up rather than on the shelves...can dig it out if you wish?

All are on luverly green GWP labels and have fab pic sleeves with song lyrics...ideal for karaoke!

Acetates...I think you put them Next to the Jesse Davis CDR

NOT CONNECTED BUT YOU KNOW WHAT ID LOVE MORE INFORMATION ON OTHER RELEASES ON THIS MR G IF STUFF IS AS MICKEY AND SOUL GENERATION DEFINETLY WORTH CHECKING OUT!!

BAZ A

I'm not sure there are any other releases on that Mr G, Baz.

I wonder if there is a connection between Mr G and the GC labels? Is the "G" in the labels the same person?

It would probably be better to look into funk releases from the same area, rather than chase the label. Texas, Jazzman has researched it a lot for the Texas Funk compilation.

The culture clash in the area and the studios used gave the best funk sounds in many people's opinion, independents, doing their own things, experimenting with sounds they believed in without commercial constraints. Mavericks of the soul circuit. Carleen and The Groovers, Mickey And The Soul Generation, Soul Seven, Lou Pride et al. I wouldn't be surprised if some of those key bands shared the same studio at some point, the sound from that area is very distinctive. One of the studios used in the area used a sewage pipe for reverb and an old 1950s recording deck. The production is very distinctive, perhaps even unique.

Texas is to 'deepfunk' what Detroit is to 'northern'. To be honest I've never really taken much interest in areas, studios, producers etc. I'll do a bit of research for you, Baz, see if I can report back with any info...

Fantastic James might link it in with my trip there in October,I think infact I know and many agree that the Lone star state is completely unique not only the Latino/Brown pride stuff but the massive amount of quality from the numerous logos,check out

www.texassoulrecordings.com as a brill sttarting point ,im sure bobo contributed to this site also!Like the sound of this Texas funk compilation have you got a link James ? Imstill of the view that it is one of the few states in the us where you can still find tune after tune,gonna try and dig a bit deeper next trip!I can remember when Guy came back from Houston late eighties boy did he have some stuff,sure Kitch and Dean Anderson riaded along with many others,no one picking up rare funk however/could be wrong.

1176 Kip Anderson - "You can't keep a good man down/Houstan Texas bound"

This is KID Anderson (it's a country 45), not the the great soul man Kip Anderson.

Hey Baz,

Jazzman's site is probably the best place to find it. Ignore the shocking cover design, the sleeve notes are good and the choices on the album are decent. Although I imagine the sleeve notes are available on the net and many of the choices on the album are available on MP3s on the net somewhere, maybe even on this site...

The thing about rare funk, 68-70 type deepfunk, is it so much rarer than rare northern soul, probably 10 times rare, maybe more. The number of good rare northern records is in the 1000s, good rare archetypal deepfunk is only in the 100s. I guess that not only was it made over a much shorter time period, remember it only existed in the first place because of experimentation so by the nature of the musicians who made it would naturally move on and experiment away from the sound, it was also much harder to make, the musicianship required was more skillful, the nature of the beats, it's 'jazzyness', was harder to make than the simple beats of motown soundalikes et al.

To put it in perspective, Sharon Jones and Daptone have been performing together at least twice as long probably three times as the period over which the music was originally made in the late 1960s. And because of this it's no wonder that almost all the original serious funk collectors from the late 90s early 2ks have moved on to other sounds such as RnB, jump jive, rock-a-billy, northern soul, crossover soul, beat ballads or disco to satisfy their search for new sounds, because new deepfunk sounds very rarely turn up...Good luck in your Texas search though

All very interesting,AMAZING the amount of rock-a-billy collec tors that pick up rare soul particulary the peacock/duke/stuff etc.Thanks for the Jazzman site tip gonna trawl through tonight.
