Teddy Pendergrass
I was just looking at teddy's early career. I'm surprised to find only a few releases from Harold Melvin and the blue notes, in the 60's. Can anyone enlighten or add depth? Was Teddy a late bloomer? which HMATBN's records did he do lead on?

Teddy Pendergrass

How to Clean W/D labels ?
As said above, polythene rubbers are very, avoid the text if possible. Manship does a good clip on it. Works well with yellow labels too.

Styrene cleaning
Doesn't wax or silicone bread cleaners like Mr sheen leave a waxy coating? I've read this method is best avoided.

Happiness is just around the bend- versions
Thank you, I've seen mentions of an AWB version but I can't find any trace of it. Great backing but in not so keen on his vocal, thanks

Happiness is just around the bend- versions
Hi all, one of my personal favourite songs is " happiness is just around the bend". Brian Auger and oblivion express write and recorded the original version in 73, covered and billboard hit for main ingredient in 74. I'm aware of the later Cuba gooding version and it was sampled a lot in early 90' house records. Considering it's popularity I can't find any other versions, does anyone know of any other versions of the song? Many thanks in advance.

Latin tunes
I know Cal T Jader- soul source was played at the torch, or golden torch, perhaps? I suspect some were played in the early days of the wheel and London mod clubs like tiles, the scene ect can anyone confirm? You also have Latin influenced records from the 70' Al foster band, silvetti, Jobelle ect. There's a heritage that goes beyond the mods playing tracks in London in the mid 80's you also need to consider great vocal tracks like Tommy Navarro, David Coleman, and Tony Galla, all played at Stafford I believe.

Latin tunes
I'd say the Harvey averne isn't boogaloo, it's more of a soul/ funk record with obvious Latin influence. But it obviously needs inclusion it has been massive

Guy’s Monsters 87 Tape
Basically this tape, along with a few others became a blueprint for my collecting passion. Not just the specific records but it showed l there was a whole world of music, beyond the bog standard oldies , that deserves exploring.
