Guest MOLLY Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 For me personally it has to be Margaret Little - Love finds away,its just a superb piece of uplifting Detroit Soul.Feel good music that you can lose yourself to when dancing.

Chalky Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 don't think the Rita & Tiaras & Belita Woods (cover ups) discoveries of Andy Dysons, both superb and always fill the floor. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Netspeaky Posted September 21, 2006 Share Posted September 21, 2006 In my opinion "Margaret Littles" is an interesting piece of Detroit Soul, to which I have my own theory (please feel free to add any constructive thoughts). John Anderson pretty well had a lot of stuff off Popcorn Wylie, and then subsequently others followed(e.g Guy Hennigan) yet nobody turned up a copy? Someone then commented to me about the vocal, saying that "Popcorn" would never have used a vocalist this poor, with all the talent literally on his doorstep, whch, if you forget the superb backing and concentrate on the vocals, it's no Pat Lewis/Martha Starr/Rose Batiste!! Now in BASIC financial terms there are Two ways of having a record released, the company records you, or you pay them to record you, often referred to as a "custom" record (e.g. The Vondells, on "Airtowns" custom subsidiary) and you therefore get the number of discs you paid for and f*** off with them. I think that Margaret did just that, hence, apparently no copies at the Wylie household, as he was paid to do a job. As far as New discoveries go, the "Two Plus Two" on "Velgo" was a surprise when I first heard & saw it about 5 Years ago, now how did that one remain hidden! Des ParkerI can't remember were I heard this story but isn't Margaret Littles Popcorn Wylies postmans daughter, and he was persuaded to record her. If this is true then the numbers pressed up would have been extremely limited, and most probably were hand distributed among family and school friends. Personally the flip side is the better side , not as uptempo but definately better. As with all rarities a lot of people out there still don't know the record due to it rarity compared to something like Joe Jamma, were most of the named DJ's have a copy so gets played more often, and gains mass appeal.

INCREDIBLE TUNE! PS: Record one of Butch's spots ... no one's hard enough A concise description comes from my old mate Big Harry from Aberdeen when he knocked me out of the way at the Lifeline weekender to get to the floor "Proper northern Byrney, out me way ya bas!" It's one of those records needs no introduction, counted intro and your off! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
