Can anyone tell me anything about this lovely Detroit singer and 45

All I know about "Magic City records" is that they bought out the Correctone studio / properties and continued making fantastic music.

I have only ever had 3 tunes on this label - Thelma Lindsay, Mad Dog & the pups and this Bonnie Brisker 45

Any more recomended 45s on the label ?

Who owned this label ?

I have seen the Bonnie Brisker 45 on a few playlists and bloody good too!!, Is it an old spin that has been revived

- or is it a tune that has been bubbling away on tapes for years?

I must admit - I only got this 45 recently and have no idea of its history.

What a beautiful Detroit mid tempo tune !!!

bonnie brisker - someone really loves you guess who) -

So Much Loving is the side for me.

Versatones is great too!

Great double sider Mossy as Joan has pointed out.

As far as I know it's a tune that has been played but it's probably more of a 'collectors tune' but nevertheless relatively well known.

The key thing with Magic City records, especially Bonnie Brisker, is finding them in any kind of decent condition - I was lucky with my copy but many are pretty beaten up both label and playing surface so finding a nice copy is a real bonus.

I'm sure some of the Detroit experts on here can fill you in with more info on the label itself..
