what system are you using, decks onto laptop/PC I'm on a Mac and I use Traktor. I usually prepare the tracks, load into Traktor and let that do the mix. But any program will record, especially if your decks go to your PC, audacity etc especially if you are going to record whilst you play them. You get what you pay for though IMO. The other program I use on the Mac is Amadeus pro and Audio Hijack. Wavepad is another program that is free. Start with something free and practice.

Get in touch with Billy...he posted the details on discogs. billygeemiller@yahoo.com and my cell is 765-617-0035.

Talk about chucking a spanner in the spokes 😆 very interesting, Motown recirding too.

It's the original use of the back as well.

The original is light blue as said. It also has the M.S.I.c.o. stamp under the label the same as Magnetics and Epitome Of Sound.

Ian Dewhirst returns to the Newark studios for two hours of quality chat and music....

Was at Andy Dyson's once, he had all three takes, all different matrix if I remember rightly. Definitely one with the short intro

you need to re read what I write and the emoticon I used. You are only reprating what I was inferring 🙄

Hard to compare on the phone but he does sound different to the Jay and the Techniques vocal, yes more white but there are similarities, 28 seconds on the Jay vocals and about 33 seconds on the acetate where the vocals strains that little bit. I’ll have to look fir a Scott English vocal to compare.

Will see if she gets back to me Robb, was from 2016 and she was 80 then.

It does sound similar to the lead on Jay and the Techniques, maybe another unissued take?

She left an email address so I have emailed her and asked.

someone must be desperate. VG-/G only? Hardly "rare" either.

what Maura said..... 1 Maura Jackson Mardi 23 Août 2016 à 03:21 Whom ever you are, my name is Maura Jackson. I Was President of Tri-em Records, Maurice was my husband, deceased May 30, 1979. Maurci (Jackson) was my daughter age 4 at the time we named the label aussi deceased January 8 , 2002 of beast cancer .. Dennis Turner is deceased. I Heard from Michael Hiller few years ago purpose Was Unable to contact him back. I saw Oliver Locke a number of years ago and that's all the contact I've had with any them since. But Michael contacted me to let me know the music was all over the internet. We had three labels: Maurci: the major one, Tri-Em: for the gospel, etc. and one called Three Jades. I lost copies of all my records many years ago and was searching online for "Come on Let's Party" when I came across you talking about Maurci Records and the Three Jades. I thought I would introduce myself. And oh yes, I,ii be eighty tomorrow. Yours sincerely, Maura Jackson, Tri Em Record Productions

He did own it along with his wife and the label named after their daughter. I read this in a message on line from his wife in response to some writing about something or other to do with the Three Jades. She also named the Three Jades.

Not sure about more knowledgeable mate, everyone has knowledge others don't...just a question of sharing it to get the full picture.

Can't tell you who Monique was Maurci was the daughter of Maurice and Maura Jackson.

Richard had at the same time or very soon after so it is said.

I have a great interest in the history surrounding the scene and love to know who what where when etc and I always give credit where credit is due. I've seen too may Johnny come lately's trying to take credit for something they don't rightly deserve, not so much on here but other social media.

I don't think any are forgotten though are they, all are staple soul scene plays IMO. Happy has been played constantly then as you say got hammered on the back of Ferrel Williams for some reason. Not just your selection though, a lot mentioned are far from forgotten.

The quest for new discoveries in every era ensured much shite was played. Thankfully, in my era anyway they soon got dropped.

There is a very good reason why some of these are forgotten......

Rudy Harvey was also a Dj at KDFJ and owned ither labels around the same time, Amazon etc. He could have had a hand in the label?

Nov 1981, highly unlikely it was played and the one who probably would have played it had left after the first “last” all-nighter in September. Played at Clifton Hall and Stafford.

Mercedes Music seems common for the first batch of releases at least, find out who owns that and that if possible.
