Corbett80 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) Always worth investigating US garage info and links there seems to be so much crossover music particularly because of the whole beach / carolina thing....

Soulcarp Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 cheers for that,had the record quite a few years rate the b side saus had the "what cha gone do" side covered as the tempos regards joel and thank you for the post Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Corbett80 Posted October 3, 2011 Author Share Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) Remember Johnny Weston playing 'I Tried' down at the first Prestatyn I went to maybe 2003 Russ - steam came out my f*cking ears - sounds amazing out... Having said this I think this is a Virginia 45? Still - that whole area of the US and scene made for some blinding records. I think this whole area of 60's soul music in the states is really underated. Looking at the Hey Baby book theres tons of super obscure groups and 45s to be ofund I'd imagine? Anyone got any good stories of Carolina / Virginia finds? Edited October 3, 2011 by corbett80 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Anyone got any good stories of Carolina / Virginia finds? Your right Joel, loads of fine stuff from the area. I found Ida Sands when I lived in VA Beach, also Barbara Stant, at the time BS refused to meet me as she was very active in the church 7 didnt recognise her secular career, since she has performed her old material live again. I also met Joe Webster from the Anglo's who was a terrific guy & was also part of the Soul Duo on Shiptown. Shiptown was a fantastic label with some awesome output, one of my faves being Ida Sands - You Came along to Rescue Me - Shiptown, also released on Chief out of NY but the NY release is a different mix, Shiptown is a tougher mix. The Ida Sands & Barbara Stant stuff is well documented, but there are other releases worthy of note, for example the Grooms, How Big Records was a subsiduary of Shiptown & also has some great stuff, Wilson Williams Honey Rock is a side I have championed for some years & I think it sounds great for now with that fierce funkish driving beat......... The Parliaments - Rainy Day was out of VA too, the list goes on, I think the area is vastly underated & I reckon there is a wealth of stuff yet to be discovered properly....... there's a starter for ya Joel........

Guest sharmo 1 Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 (edited) I've never had any positive reaction to the regents I played it at no more doggin for years and the Hally soul nights and the west end soul nights and at Leicester and no bugger danced.So I gave up with it , it's in the garage so I'll have to dig it out.The Parliments has just been reissued and is available for a tenner(not from me).regards Simon.
