Bobby Kline - Ocapellos
Also if you read the comments he is both black and white according to people who knew Bobby. Maybe we have two Bobby Kline's?

Bobby Kline - Ocapellos
I was referring to the wiki page which casts him as a member.

Bobby Kline - Ocapellos
I’ve done the google mate, it tells us nothing practically. Wiki is notorious for false info too. I reckon they have taken him as a member because of his credit on the disc rather than any credible source.

Bobby Kline - Ocapellos
Read the comments for the youtube clip below. Someone says they went to school with Bobby Kline and that he and his brother sang with him. He also states Bobby Kline was African American. His girlfriend or ex also comments but gives us nothing. The comments by PJdoowop are the ones that are the most interesting

Bobby Kline - Ocapellos
Reading the main Doowop pages/blogs, they don’t mention Kline as a member of the Ocapellos.

Soul Source Ebay Auction Highs - April 2019
Dunno why as there are 1000s of originals not 200 as some seem to think. There are also plenty of Djs with these so called classic biggies so why the need to compete or add to the count? Are people so incapable of creating something by themselves and not follow the flock. Be the shepherd not the 🐑

I think the opposite for any aspiring Dj, grow a pair and use some imagination. You are highly unlikely to get on the treadmill at the top end with all the cheque book Djs about, seek out some of the lesser played stuff. I mean lets face it the only reason many of these records are the price they are is because of so many chasing them in the hope they will get £50 Dj money at the dog and duck, vastly over priced and rarely anything to do with rarity.

Dena Barnes ... the 'other' 45
That was my understanding, four cut two released, two lost in the vaults.

Dena Barnes ... the 'other' 45
There was apparently two other tracks cut in the studio but I am unaware of any other 45. Tim Ashibende might know more as he met her. @colouredman

Dean Anderson's Sound of Soul, Thursday 8pm.
Dean is joined in the studio once more by Kev Roberts for two hours of quality northern, modern and bit of that funky stuff. Some great stories and chat as well.

Unfortunately I can’t make it mate. Fantastic venue and should be a regualr venue on the scene for niters once more

I have to agree there are anoraks in all genres. Me dad went all over to see Country acts. He didn't live and breathe it though.

You lads love of music is great, I wish all kids could dig some kind of scene, life would be much better. But, we lived, breathed and in some cases died for the scene, all that mattered was the next night out, all for the sheer love of it. Do your lads go all over the country in pursuit of the music, not through work to get paid but but for fun, for the buzz we got out of it, not just a chemical one either? That’s the difference with us. All my waking hours were devoted to the music, to the scene, certainly for many years before the recovery time after a nighter became a problem. I still devote most of my spare time to it even now all these years later. I never felt for my divvy mates though, Imwas glad they stayed where they were, they just wouldn’t get it although the divs have some what taken over.

More madness. 7dwarfs
The Nat Kendrick & The Swans were all male from what I can see, The Twans female obviously. Two of the Swan 45 sides are instrumental with just the odd male interjection. Haven’t bothered listening to any others. How did we get on to the Twans? 🙄😳

They aren’t the same group. It’s like saying the Rolling Stones were once the Faces.

But both have an “s” and are therefore plural even if spelt wrong.
