Chalky Posted June 26, 2017 Share Posted June 26, 2017 (edited) Shee Records 563 E. Tremont Avenue, Bronx, New York, Founded by Larry Roberts with some other partners. Sidney Barnes was asked to help set up the label, coming up with the name and the logo. Sid was a Motown Staff writer at the time and Lucille White took a song to Motown with the hope of getting it recorded, it was rejected. However Sid liked the song and thought it would be ideal for Little Nicky Soul at the newly created Shee records. Little Nicky, real name Nichalous Faircorth was from Newark, New Jersey and was a good friend of Sidney Barnes. Sidney collaborated with Lucille, helping rewrite the lyrics and produced the recording of the song for Little Nicky. He is credited on the label as M. Alexander as he couldn’t use his real name because he was solely contracted to Motown. Richard Tee, the arranger and conductor was a piano player at Jobete, he later went on to work as musical arranger for Paul Simon and Aretha Franklin. Despite rumours Little Nicky didn’t record any other tracks with Shee according to Sidney. One other release on the label was by the Four Arts. The group was Lee Gilliard, Cleve Gilliard, Dave Richards and Ike Richards. Sidney doesn’t remember anything about them. The 45 was written and produced by Larry Roberts. SR-100 Four Arts Just One Night (ZTSP 94861) Who Do You Think You Are (ZTSP 94862)SR-101 Little Nicky Soul I Wanted To Tell You (ZTSP 94863) You Said (ZTSP 94864) Edited June 26, 2017 by chalky Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
