Mick Boyle Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Anything with Not the marrying kind on (covered up as Kenny Lewis) and the Young Brothers gets my vote Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Anything with Not the marrying kind on (covered up as Kenny Lewis) and the Young Brothers gets my vote Is that the same "Not The Marrying Kind" as Gene Chandler's? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
sir cumference Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Sorry Pete-Ever Again-again!?Isn`t it too obvious? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Awesome (only know 3 of the tracks tho') will have a listen many thanks for posting MC Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mick Boyle Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 You lost me there The one Pete has listed was found in Max Kidds basement and was totally blank It was covered as Keni Lewis due to the shrine connection If you are referring to my spelling of Kenny then I hold spell check responsible for that, as it don't like Keni Not trying to claim that my spelling is any good as in general its rather preposterous.

Pete S Posted May 26, 2014 Author Share Posted May 26, 2014 Sorry Pete-Ever Again-again!?Isn`t it too obvious? Maybe...have to understand who these are aimed at though...so many people from abroad download these, they won't know half the tracks we know 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
MrsWoodsrules Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Maybe...have to understand who these are aimed at though...so many people from abroad download these, they won't know half the tracks we know And also I never tire of it, doesn't matter how often I hear it, and I love both versions, such a great well written soulful track.

Robbk Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Please forgive my ignorance of non-Detroit/Chicago recent previously unreleased NS discoveries. But please tell me who sang this "Not The Marrying Kind" (covered up as by Keni Lewis)? I've heard the video audio on You-Tube, but don't recognise the voice. Was it another unreleased Shrine recording (it sounds too "clean" to be that)? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Was it another unreleased Shrine recording (it sounds too "clean" to be that)? I don't think we know who it is singing, uncredited acetate and as said found in Maxx Kidd's basement by Andy Rix. Andy might be able to tell us more. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Zed1 Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) Thanks for posting Pete... Not heard the Paul Sindab track in decades, come to think not heard 'Do whatcha Wanna Do' in years either..... Edited May 26, 2014 by Zed1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Andy might be able to tell us more. So, it might then have been an unreleased recording originally destined for Maxx Records? The sound is appropriate for that time period.

Robbk Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) I heard it could be L.J. Reynolds, whoever it is, it's a great tune. The recording in question sounds like 1965-66. Or, at the very latest, 1967. Didn't Carl Kidd work out of Washington , DC and New York? Did L.J. Reynolds record on the East Coast as early as 1966 or 1967? I only know of his Detroit recordings. Born in 1953, he'd have been only 13 to 14 years old when that recording was made. That singer sounds like an adult to me.

Guest east rob Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Only what I was told Robb, Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mick Boyle Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 Andy wasn't on the trip when the so called Keni Lewis was found though Im sure he would of been the brains behind it. John Poole actually found it and the record went to Rob Thomas (who was present) & Andy Rix as it was there contact In my opinion this was one of the greatest turn ups in Northern soul history and I believe Kitch now owns it As stated it was un-named and I have heard the L J Reynaulds link before. Rob Thomas told me he had tracked down the artist and gave me a Italian name (I since forgot) I think he was pulling my leg. Hopefully Andy can throw some more light on this Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted May 27, 2014 Author Share Posted May 27, 2014 Great!!! Thanks for posting these Pete. Hope you do some more of the podcasts of soul from the early days. I will Geoff, it's just getting the chance to do it, since I bought the new Mac, the program I use for doing the podcasts has stopped working and won't work with this latest version of Mac software, meaning I have to do it on a clunky, slow windows machine...very frustrating Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
