all info gratefully recieved , artists ,titles, values etc ...cheers , ez;)

I don't think it's the superbad James Brown.

I've had a Tee Vee label record outta Los Angeles by Morry Williams and the Kids (I think that's the name or something close). Group sound c. 1960

Are you thinking about the TEE VEE label out of Pulaski, Tennessee?

The releases I have (or have seen) have all got "A James Brown Productions Release" on the label.

So it must've been linked to the J.B.P. PRODUCTIONS (James Brown Productions) label which also was located in Pulaski, Tennessee.

Actually, it seems likely that TEE VEE changed its name to JBP. They share the same catalogue numbering system and a lot of the label credits.

Skip August/August Brown was heavily involved in most of the releases. Like boba I also doubt that THE James Brown was involved, but "James" is not an unusual name and perhaps was only used to get some attention. I have no idea really.

Check out the info and scans below.

TEE VEE 2507 - Skip August - Shindig USA (part 1) / Shindig USA (part 2)

TEE VEE 2508 - Fabulous Majestics - Early Bird / Jig

TEE VEE 2509 - Skip August - What Goes Up (Must Come Down) / ?

TEE VEE 2510 - Kalendars - It Takes Two, Babe / I'll Love Only You

J.B.P. 2511 - Evaline - Like They Say / Just Like That (With A Snap Of A Finger)

J.B.P. 2512 - LMNOPs - I Need You / Calling

Additions, anyone? Flipside to 2509 for example?

The LMNOPs "I Need You" was also issued in a slightly different version on the STARWAY label:

STARWAY 1101 - International Five - I Need You / So In Love With You

Just realised that the Evaline b-side is written by James M. Brown.

The "real" "superbad" James Brown's entire name was James Joseph Brown Jr.

So most likely NOT him.

Have added the scan of the Fabulous Majestics 45 above as well.
