I'm sure I saw it says he played sax somewhere too Pete. For such a humongous label I assume a lot of product was leased in and not from LA? There's at least some Memphis stuff there.

Yeh I know Bob, need the label background info for some distantly related research on a particular artist. Was it always Hollywood, LA based? Address ever change?

Cheers guys will check em out

Couldn't agree more Flanny. "I wanta be your baby" sooo needs playing out more. Actually the 45s for sale are originally sourced from Gene Rumley's (Gene and the Team Beats) personal collection. And before anyone asks, no there isnt a box of them! Great set of tunes this lot, if I didnt have 'em already I'd have em myself! All these 45s are also discussed in this summer's best seller (see link below)....

Cheers for posting up the link Dave. Three options Geoff: colour, PDF (follow the colour version link) or B&W. I also have a few personal stock copies of B&W and colour if anyone wants to PM me. Postage will be a bit cheaper than online purchase. Mark

Roburt, it's all soul, worry not, and all but one of the 'bands/groups' related chapters deliberately focus on those associated with rare soul as played on the northern scene from the late seventies to the present. Regards beach stereotypes, preconceptions and misconceptions, well, I hope you find the book explores this before moving onto the real business of digging deeper.

Thanks Jock for the kind comments. Technically though mine is printed in the Netherlands for UK buyer. Blurb have print houses there and in the US (Blurb is a US company). I have a few personal copies of both colour and black and white versions, which will cut down the postage to UK buyers as I am UK based. If anyone wants one just PM me. There's also a PDF option available for purchase on-line (sorry no ebook).

I really focussed on the NC side of things geographically and the Tempests 60s output. However I think Mike Branch (now deceased) was the link in the Scepter release of the BH. Of course in the late seventies Mike and General Johnson revived the beach scene with Surfside Recs. Roger Branch still works / owns a recording studio in New Orleans. Van Coble was the main contributor to my book regards the Tempests. He's been ill recently but on the mend again and now editing stuff in his studio along with his mate Nat Speir founder of (Bob Meyer and the) Rivieras. They were both incredibly supportive of the project. I was lucky enough to meet both in person this year and consider them good friends.
