Alan Pollard Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 From memory the track "All of my life" was an un-issued track by The Four Temples I think, of course there is chance the Four Temples could have been The Ringleaders, they certainly sound similar. Awesome track. Regards Alan Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Simon T Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Thanks Simon Didn't look right to me but thought i'd just check. Derek Forget who was selling them from the US, one of the dealers who had all the Royal Esquires etc? Dave Thorley's on here, don't know if he still has the original acetete?

Awesome track. Regards Alan "covered" as the Ringleaders, and subsequently pressed as such. Acetate was made for M-pac, and as no group name appeared on the label, the Ringleaders was the obvious choice to call it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 (edited) as far as I'm aware the Four Temples was the name of the group before they went on to become the Ringleaders. I think the Four Temples was written on the studio tape or whatever it was when Tim got them. So in essence it wasn't covered as the Ringleaders, they were the Ringleaders Edited May 5, 2007 by chalky Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Trevski Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Is that your acetate Trev? Nope, just got the scan, unfortunatly. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Hadn't heard that bit of info So if that was the case, and I don't doubt it, how come it emerged as credited to the Four Temples, when all fingers point to the Ringleaders? Whats the full sp?

Whats the full sp? thought I'd said earlier The Ringleaders were previously known as the Four Temples. As I said earlier, when Tim got the studio tapes and other related stuff the one with All Of My Life had the Four Temples on it. Must have been one of their first recordings laid down at M-Pac/One-Derful and they went there as the FT. Then came the name change to the Ringleaders for their releases on the label.....I presume.

Sorry Chalks, the posts were coming in that fast I missed that bit Did they ever release anything as the Four Temples previously, or did they just get together, call themselves the Four Temples, turn up to audition for M-pac and the label didn't like the name?

Pete S Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Useless fact: I bought Richard Searlings copy of The Ringleaders off him at Wigan, paid £15, and he'd put the groups name as The Ringmasters on the sleeve. Must have been one of his whiskey nights. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Shouldn't be much more than that now That was such a lot of money then, and of course he must have been tipped off because about 2 weeks later, about 500 copies turned up courtesy of soul bowl, they retailed at £3 each Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
