Tobi Lark c/u?
It was a cover up. On a major label and super rare. "The Lady" of this group is the same vocalist. Do some researching and you could find the answer. I'll put a link to it soon if nobody gets it.

Connie Questell unknown tracks
Hi Mal, You can download and listen to a good 90 minute interview with Connie and her husband, they were both in groups as teenagers. She tells you about her early group and solo recordings and the whole interview is built around life in The Bronx. I enjoyed listening to it. https://research.library.fordham.edu/baahp_oralhist/191/

Roy Hamilton reach out for me
Hard to guess on release date as those numbers are taken from the album. I would say John is right that it's a posthumous release within a year or so of 1969. T 1966 P Popular R 12" 33 1/3rpm M Mono S1.6 = Side 1 Track 6

Bobby Bland- never released or just very hard to find
@Mike Lofthouse is your man for Bobby Bland releases. Last time i asked about his Bobby Bland collection he just needed one or two to complete the full set. There was one he wasn't sure came out even though it is listed, it could be the one you're asking about.

name that tune
Yes, ZZ Hill and Joe Taylor are the same song. I was stating that Joe Taylor has the wrong writing credits. Those credits are from a George Smith song with the same name from 1956.
-
name that tune
Two different songs with the same title from the same publishing company. The "Smith & Ling" song was done by George Smith in 1956 and it's a different song to ZZ Hill in 1964. The two record labels involved have the same parent company Modern Records. Looks like the credits on the later Joe Taylor cover should of went to ZZ Hill but got mixed up with the earlier song. The Joe Taylor version is brilliant, a great singer that i'd like to know more about.

Big Mack - Come To Me (Bridges & Eaton)
The writer Bobby Eaton also did it. I have the one from Discogs and its the only one ive ever seen. Definately the rarest of the "Brothers Of Soul" releases.

Marva Whitney
It's a brilliant double sider by a great artist. Ball Of Fire has been played quite a bit over the years, not sure how popular it is these days. Also done by Connie Austin before her on the same label.
