    There are some interesting articles on line relating to the Motown studios and acetates .Mike McLean was an engineer at Motown and worked there from 61 to 72 .I remember him penning an article where he explained about Motown trying to rush out “ It’s The Same Old Song “ in an effort to beat Columbia who were going to release an old Four Tops record to cash in on the success of “ I Can’t Help Myself “ .I think he said that the rhythm of “ Same Old Song “ was basically “ I Can’t Help Myself “ in reverse .Anyway ,several different acetates were cut ( slightly different versions ) and then rushed to the local radio stations for advance airplay .Here is one such article ….

    Always enjoyed Birmingham Locarno ,used to listen to both Rare Soul and The Jazz Funk room ,also the 80’s room with Arthur Fenn and Soul Sam.

    Central Hall Kettering was great with John Vincent ,Sam ,etc in the mid 70’s .Went to Matlock Bath once when I was seeing a girl from Derby ,that was also good from memory .

    Canyon exploded onto the LA scene in 69, burned brightly for some months & then imploded. Some of their business practices weren't too great (they certainly ripped off Rudy Love -- but at least we were able to EVENTUALLY get Rudy's Canyon album; though it was only released in the UK on Manhattan and badged up as being by Tyrone Davis).

    All very odd John ,Wally Roker did release some great records though ,Doris Duke ,Swamp Dogg ,Rudy etc
