Yep. I've long wondered how Bobby Treetop fared after Tuff. Seriously. What happened to him, what was his story? I'd love to know more about these guys and girls....

Bruce Cloud was in Billy Wards Dominoes after Clyde Mcphatter and Jackie Wilson had left the group. He was second tenor with the group . After leaving the group in 1962, Cloud tried to make it on his own and in 1969 released the California Soul album on Capitol. Cloud is an interesting character as much for his music as he is for his tragic personal life story. After failing to realize commercial success with his solo career, Cloud was forced to take a job at a drug store. Things were not going well for Cloud and his family and after nearly divorcing his wife, Cloud killed her and their two year old child before committing suicide.

George Lemons parents, Mr and Mrs Lemons had a company called Gold Soul and they bought Terra Shirma Studios from Ralph Terrana. George recorded Fascinating Girl on the label which did nothing. His parents were involved in some sort of shoot out with the FBI over money laundering or something like that.

J.T. Parker is John Parker, I have a whole C.D. of his stuff from the Academy session, but nothing as good as the "I Want To Hold on" track. Vince Apollo is Melvin or Marvin Brown (I can't remember off the top of my head) but he's the M.Brown credited on the label.

Great info chalky

Back in the late 80's I seem to remember GL was on death row for murdering someone in a drug deal ???

Or was he on death row for murdering a song called Fascinating Girl???

The whole story is on the net somewhere, I remember reading it years ago.

 

Part of it is on Soulful Detroit where Ralph was warned not to sell and it wasn't long before The Lemons defaulted on payments.

 

I read GL's shot three police officers.

 

For some strange reason, even though he can't sing for toffee I quite like Fascinating Girl and despite no one else liking it it rams the dance floors for some reason :lol:

Re: The Lemons family.
This is a reprint from the Detroit 300 Almanac.
It might make a interesting new forum topic.
"From Gold Soul Records to Cold Steel Bars"


Inkster motel firefight
WARRANT TRIP TURNS DEADLY FOR POLICE .
They drifted from one fly-by-night scam to another and were living in an Inkster motel when Inkster police arrived July 9, 1987, to serve Alberta Easter, and her sons with a warrant for a $286 bad check.
Easter, 69, protested, insisting the warrant was improper. Officers Clay Hoover, 24, and Daniel Dubiel, 36, called their supervisor, Sgt. Ira Parker. He drove to the Bungalow Motel on Michigan Avenue. Seconds after Parker, 41, entered the motel room, gunfire began. The cops didn't have a chance. Twenty-nine slugs were pumped into the three officers, including rounds from their own weapons.
Then Easter and sons George, 45, Roy, 47, and William Lemons, 43, fired at random out the motel door at Michigan Avenue. A 10 hour standoff ended when the family surrendered. All were convicted of first-degree murder and are serving life terms.

Look around the net for Jimmy Gresham, he was released from prison Feb 2012 after serving 20+ years of a 30 year stretch

 

For starters there stuff here. The "Free Jimmy Gresham" web site is no longer going as he's now free.

 

The MP3 download of the interview is still working though

 

 

Also a lot of facts to be gleaned from here plus there are other threads if you do site search for Jimmy Gresham

Whilst purchasing this attached album.

I seem to remember a conversation at Soul Bowl records regarding Melvin or Mel Brown and this connection
