  1. Hmm, except if they had read this thread they might have had a better idea of how many know copies there were.
  2. I know Andy Murfin turned a dozen up back in the days of Bretby when Chris Anderton ran it that had reversed labels
  3. I'm sorry but this is completely untrue. She was a TV producer who had the first Motown tour of the UK on the show she produced, but she had absolutely nothing at all to do with them coming to England. That was down to Dave Godin and Berry Gordy. I presume you have heard of Dave Godin ?

    and as I now own that same copy of The Vondells, I've often started with it !
  5. Frank bleedin Wilson No I love it really. Top example has to be Ghost In My House
  6. No, it was a joke !
  7. That's because they kept posting the same old messages, time after time, after time.....

  9. CLEVELAND ROBINSON - COME CHANGE YOUR NAME TO MINE - CLEVELAND ROBINSON SINGS - 2-63 Funnily enough I've just added this to the discography this morning, but then again, the info came from Bosko, who like yourself is a Canadian resident, so I guess you may have been in contact with either him or Martin Koppell about it (Who I know he sees regularly).
  10. The Doni Burdick is definitely known. Mike Bolderson wrote an article about Doni Burdick for SKM. Here's what he had to say " "Doni met up with Ernie Stratton who owned a recording studio in Detroit. Stratton had enjoyed success with Patti Young's 'Head And Shoulders' which he had released on his Ernstrat label. After listening to Doni's recordings Stratton said that he would get him a song written by one of the Ruffin brothers. Although this song never materialised other tracks did. Brian 'Funk' Dombrowski set up a late evening recording session and two further tracks were recorded 'Faith' and 'New Rochelle'. Which were subsequently released back to back as Doni Burdick and the Fabulous Thunders on Danny Dallas' SIR label. Largely unheard of on the Northern scene' Faith' was written by Doni's friend Melvin Davies who also had the song released on the Mala label. As for the Fabulous Thunders, well, they didn't actually appear on either track but as Doni said 'a promise is a promise' and he arranged for them to appear on the credits even though they were splitting up."
  11. Winsford is a simple one to answer. The Civic Hall is being demolished. Some of the others have closed because the management of the venue has changed, and some have closed because there were simply too many venues in that particular area for the number of people who were likely to attend.
  12. ALL MY RECORDS ARE SENT RECORDED DELIVERY,IN RECORD MAILERS!!! Of course everyone else sends records out in pink fluffy slippers
  13. No that was a deliberate wind up by the two guys
  14. I find that quite funny, John puts a link up in the wrong place, Mike removes it, so John thinks it's failed, and puts it up again, so Mike removes it, so John thinks it's failed, and puts it up again, so Mike removes it, so John thinks it's failed, and puts it up again, so Mike removes it, so John thinks it's failed, and puts it up again, so Mike removes it, so John thinks it's failed, and puts it up again, so Mike removes it. Groundhog day all over again
  15. Think Des Parker had a mis-press with a different artist on the other side if memory serves me correctly

  22. Hi everyone, I'm doing some research into Don Robey and the Peacock label, and would really appreciate it if people could PM me some label scans. Preferably done at 300dpi, anything on the blue label will be gratefully received. Thanks
