February 4, 200718 yr Had an album by Frank Virtue but was dissapointing for me anyway... Anyone tell me abouth Gene Faith please. Edited February 4, 200718 yr by melandthensome
February 4, 200718 yr Love Committee - "Law And Order"... Pretty sure this came out in UK on Salsoul, as I have the UK album. Edited February 4, 200718 yr by mel brat
February 4, 200718 yr Anyone tell me abouth Gene Faith please. He was the original lead singer of the Volcanoes, not sure whether he's on all of their Arctic Records or not but I believe he might be. He made the fantastic "My Baby's Missing" on (a Mercury distributed) Virtue in 1969-70. That was released over here (in an inferior mix) on Power Exchange in 1974-5, around the time they put Ann Byers "This Man Is Rated X" out. I've never heard the 45 you've scanned, it looks interesting enough, though! TONE
February 4, 200718 yr Thanks for that Tony all these years Ive been into philly and didnt know GENE FAITH
February 4, 200718 yr Didn't Know You Were A Philly Aficionado Mel, Here's A Blurry Picture Of A Philly Disc Before It was A Philly Disc. Jimmy Had Briefly Considered Signing The Intruders To Musicor But Passed On Them And Kicked Himself About It Later!
February 4, 200718 yr Thanks for that Tony all these years Ive been into philly and didnt know GENE FAITH that lori ann thing on melron, got this on a CD "the best of melron" which also contains the fantastic fred martin revue "i want another chance" all the other tracks on the cd are some of the strangest oddist recordings ive ever heard including a track about a giant fish called "big butters" which also does not appear in the melron label listing so god knows how it got on the cd lori ann looks like a young valerie singelton, melron lable owner len stark looks like norris from corrie (lots of info and pictures with cd)
