masqueraders - now that I've found you

antiques - satisfactorize your mind (heard this was a white group from nola, can anyone confirm / deny?)

imported moods (both sides killer, anyone have any info on this group?)

syl johnson - any way the wind blows

teacher's edition - i wanna be loved (obscure chicago one)

jean plum - here i go again

As you say Rich, an iconic label indeed. The Hi Rhythm Section, a list of fabulous artists such as O.V.Wright, Otis Clay, Ann Peebles, Don Bryant, Al Green, Quiet Elegance, Jean Plum, Syl Johnson, George Jackson etc etc etc. all under the wing of the genius who was Willie Mitchell.

A few from me then -----

T-99 - Sweetness Ain't Sweet No More - Hi

David Duke - Is It Over - Hi

Staying true to my signature I better include a couple from these guys.

Otis Clay - It Was Jealousy - Hi

O V Wright - Precious Precious - Hi

Sean Hampsey, where are ya ?

Soul brilliance from Overton Vertis Wright

He just caves me in, fabulous soul music of the highest order.

O.V. Wright - The Bottom Line

Medley - God Blessed Our Love, When A Man Loves A Woman, That's How Strong My Love Is (12 minutes of sheer soul magic)

Back in 75/76 I wrote to Hi Records and got back a nice package back together with this letter from Ginger Russell. Really nice of them and who would of thought 35 years later and I'm still listening to them yes.gif. Mike

That's great Mike. Just to get a simple reply would have been nice.

I bet you were well chuffed when that lot came back. I know I was when I got a reply (and a badge) after writing to the Ian Allan Trainspotters Club :thumbsup:

Even beats having the T shirt :lol:
