On the same street (Chestnut) as URP is a plating and polishing company called Matrix Of Nashville, coincidence? Might be worth looking them up and dropping them an email.

I asked George who owns NRP what he knew of Nashville Matrix, he said Nashville Phono Matrix Was A Plating Company Only Got My Start In The Biz There In 1966. They Did Plates For Southern Plastics, Archer And Many Others. When United Was Formed In 1972 They Started There Own Plating Shop.

Maye if she'd told everyone the records and her history she might have better results. Feedback does count for a lot these days especially when something is going to cost a fair bit of money.

Whose record it was and who he was friendly with is irrelevant. Many records on this scene have come from a group member or an artists or friend of the an artist or group. I don't dispute who she is or even suggest she is a dodgy dealer just that by upping the price over the course of the auction is a bit out of order really. If she'd started cheap it would probably fetch more than she wants but with a silly price to start with simply puts bidders off as history has proved countless times. If it was in my price range I'd still have no interest in it personally as its just an average record IMHO.

Great show guys. At chance a playlist. And thanks again to Zane for the download. Makes my Monday mornings a bit more bearable

Why defend her Nev, normally you would pick up on stuff like this and Lucky Davis and highlight it. It's plain greed. A high start price is no different to a reserve IMO. Stick a decent start price on it and let it find its own value. It's not as though she laid $1000's out, it cost her nothing.

not to hand Keith.

You are wasting your time really with popsike. As far as I'm are there's little or no demand for the record and therefore probably little history as well. There could have been countless copies slipped through ebay. Not sure what the minimum sale is popsike use now?

another legend gone. Didn't get the recognition he fully deserved IMO but for me he was a genius. R.I.P.

why do people take popsike as gospel? there are loads and loads of sales, none sales etc that go or have gone through ebay that don't make it onto popsike.

Was the Anniversary Song one of Danny Everard's? Rings a bell!

Kell, Paul , Eddie and Willy performed as quartet in Birmingham but Willy Waller soon dropped out. Kell never mentioned a name for the group. The first time he said they were the Cavaliers was when they moved to Cleveland and began performing there. All three left Birmingham together, first for Cinncinatti and then onto Cleveland where school friend WIlly Waller was now residing. Kell and Eddie took jobs as dishwashers at the Majestic Hotel, later getting Paul a job as bell boy / dishwasher. They worked the Rose Room at the Majestic as the Cavaliers and got recognised by the local press who named them the Dishwashing Trio. The Cavaliers name was taken from a gospel group of the same name. All three left Cleveland together for Detroit as well after accepting Jenkins proposal to manage them, not two of them and Kell joining them later. Waller didn't go to Detroit, as far as I am aware he didn't even perform in Cleveland with them. All this info came from conversations I had with Kell Osborne. If you have a photo of them at the Majestic I'd be interested to see it as even Kell didn't have one. I have posted a photo of the three of them as the Primes which is the KO story.

no but the dance was just as cringeworthy.

The Birmingham Cavaliers. Birmingham was where they were from, their place of birth. It was in Cleveland where they formed a group initially called the Cavaliers, they only sang locally, auditioning for the major acts that came through Cleveland hoping to get a deal. Sometime later, Milton Jenkins offered to take them to Detroit and renamed them the Primes.

The Cavaliers came from the guy who put them on eBay, he got all the stock from the DC booking agency, prior to that they hadn't been seen before. The group from Birmingham was Kell Osborne, Paul Williams and Eddie Kendricks as you will know from the Kell Osborne story I wrote for Kell. But they didn't record so can be discounted really.
