Any Info On James Lately
James Lately (no longer with us) released one record with Dave Hamilton on Temple records as mentioned.Ive only ever seen his name on one other record details elude me but the disc belongs to Andy Dyson so he might be able to help.When i was over at D Hamiltons house James sisters came by on roller skates ( straight opposite Mr Franklins Church ) Arethas father Managed to get 3 copies of the disc and Dave told me that James was a real tough guy(bit like Larry Clinton was ) he went to the same school as Berry Gordy Jnr and one day gave Berry a slap dont forget that Berry was a succesful boxer around that time more so later,so as i said James was no pushover.Alas he was killed in the early 70ts dont remember the exact year i think it was knife wounds.The song (both sides ) is a fitting tribute to Glens memory.
