[Charlie Rees]

Johnny Caswell you dont love me anymore

thatphillysound.com/artists/johnny_caswell.html

[Jim G]

also forgot but not unfortunately Lada Edmund Jr The Larue, recorded in 66 but not sure about the first playing.

Moss' 60th party today!

Lada Edmund is Black

The used a white girl to promote it, even with pictures but apparently the real singer is a black session singer

there is a history somewhere on here

[Jim G]

That's the Tune was deffo 73 at least, played by Soul Sam at Pendulum

Also played by Sam was the instrumental of the Rolling Stones - Lets Spend the Night Together

A couple more

Wayne Gibson - Under my Thumb

George Carrow - Angel Baby

Righteous Brothers Band - Rat Race

Barbara Mills - Queen of Fools

The Creation - I Got The Fever

Solomon King - This Beautiful Day

Sounds like wishful thinking to me, though I can't think why anyone would want to doubt it's her singing. Lada Edmund Jr was a go go dancer on the TV show Hullabaloo and is the epitome of 60s groovyness.

Forgot all about Solomon King. P.J. Proby's cut of That's the Tune was deffo Torch period.

The LA Power & Light Co - Let's Spend Some Time Together.

When was Shirtails first played, I remember it from early Wigan but can't remember when I first heard it.

Dalton Boys - I've Been Cheated

Debbie Dean - Why Am I Loving You

One of THE classic NS sides of all time

The DB were a country duo / act at the time of signing with Motown , and given the nature of the vocals on " IBC " , it was somewhat of a change from their normal renditions of songs in their act I would assume .

If I can get my printer to fettle and copy a photograph I have of them , I will post up it up .

Fantastic club sound in the 60ts up here in Scotland, covered by many of the bands who played it on the live circuit

They look like the crowd when Jez and I DJ'd at Donnelly's birthday night last month

In respect of The Dalton Boys , here in all their glory , are that pair of jolly rascals .....

That's a first, story was that it was recorded by the Beatles as they where in the States at that time and had visited Motown and asked to do a number.

Owing to contractual obligations they couldn't use the name the Beatles etc.

Listen to the Oh Yeahs and almost a Mandolin in there....., I didn't know they did scouse in Detriot.

Anyway, a total lack of information about the "Dalton Boys", not suprising then that it was Alan Day who first played it.

Lada Edmund Jr is white, The Larue was released under her name on Decca 1966, if she actually recorded it then that's a new thread, "who recorded under false names or took some one elses work"

me thinks she actually sung it on the Andy Williams Show, will consult with Jack Bollington, he's ace on trivia.

There's nothing like us getting our priorities in the right order, I mean, Japan is in meltdown, we're off for another regime change/war because we backed the wrong horse in Libya and yet we're discussing the ethenticities of Lada Edmund Jr!

Where has this story originated from ? The Dalton Boys are The Beatles ? sorry , but it is as far fetched as manure from China .

The vocal phrasings on " IBC " are nothing like the vocal phrasings of the main Beatle vocalists , i.e. Lennon and McCartney , nowhere near the vocal strains of Harrison , and certainly a million miles from the singing " style " of Ringo on recordings that were made around the same time as " IBC " .

Slightly confused regarding your comment associating a lack of information about TDB with alan Day first playing it : care to enlighten us ?

I still don't get why people think it's not her singing. She sounds the same on all of her records. Maybe your getting her mixed up with the Beatles as they were a bunch of black guys who dressed themselves up as the Dalton Boys in order to sell more records in Japan and Libya. As far as made up words go though, 'ethenticities' is right up there.

[shelly]

Malc

Story was that back in 73 when it was first played by Alan Day and no info was available, reliable sources who had recently been to the US came back with this story, and without seeing their pics and listening, it's not that too far off! but again, depends on the acoustics where you are. Plus Alan was up yo all sorts of tricks!

Personally. glad you've cleared this up.

Mr Godzilla

First of all apologise for my typo, it should read ethnicty's

I understand your comments to some extent, but as you weren't at the all nighters when the said records where first played; they didn't let people in the Torch in short tousers( you birth year is 1959 according to your profile) so lets not get too agressive here and your comments about selling into Libya/Japan are misguided irrespective of politics..

This was a thread to awaken all to the amount of white recorded sounds we danced too and in reality didn't realise it.

There are c 100 different sounds mentioned so far , and as this is prior to 1973 then it is of interest to some of us. Wigan increased this by a factor of N+ ,hence it's general omission.

However, given the quality of most of the contributions, I'd say this was an anorak devoid thread and one of interest to those of us who discovered sounds a long time after we danced to them.

Stirrin up Some Soul was played at Wigan late 73, remember (god knows how)being one of he first in one night with Gray, anyway as it was empty and it was one of the first records played, the sound virtually pinned us against the wall, and no it wasn't the DS in disguise!

No, with thought, the sound that pinned us against the wall was Sandy Nelson -Sock it to em JB, but the Marketts was next.

When was the Vogues - That's the Tune first aired?

Shelly

STIRRIN was deffo/deffo late Torch...

This came up in a zillion pint conversation last night, Bill Black's Combo -Little Queenie, I never dreamt they where white.

Also, not mentioned before Bob Kuban-The Cheater,

Lastly, Alvin Cash and the Register(nee Crawlers) are not white and never where.

Really suprised to see helen shapiro in there. I always associate it with the dreadful british label pop boom of 1978 by the likes of nev wherry and keith minshull.
