ASHTON UKRAINIAN CLUB
The usual top night at the Ukrainian, a great little club that has a big reputation. Where arrived 7.30ish to hear Phil Dunn's last half hour which was the usual excellence and was getting the people up already with a decent number of people in so early in the night. Robbo up next and you get the usual Robbo magic, mid tempo, beat ballads and dancers that kept the floor full. Tony Mac was up next and was playing a great varied set but unfortunately we didn't get to hear all his set as we went to Keele......to be honest I wish I'd stayed at the Ukrainian 😔 Nice to see Derek smartly dressed as well and his carer Big Mick...top man love the guy. Good to see Alison Nolan out and about as well, Rowena, Steve, Ken B and the usual faces. Can't make the next one unfortunately as my shifts fall wrong but holiday going in for November 😉

Stax or Motown what's your preference?
It is something I've never thought about and something I cannot really choose between. As said both labels have their plusses and minuses. Motown was probably the soundtrack of most of our youth and probably the way into this wonderful scene.

Stax or Motown what's your preference?
All that creativity would have found an outlet somewhere. If anything the creativity at Motown was maybe somewhat stifled at Motown as it settled into the formula it found the most success with. You only have to look at the amount of moonlighting for other studios and labels by those involved at Motown and by those who left Motown because they were often overlooked.

Coming Soon from MD Records Group
There is a lot more in the can and better than what we have heard apparently. On Dean Anderson's show for which Jordan sat in whilst Dean was away, Jordan played an unissued Tommy Rodgers, he of Pass The Word, which IMO was better than the Tomangoes. Take a listen to this weeks show to hear it.
-
Coming Soon from MD Records Group
As promised, Jordan has just shared the next two releases from MD records

Love starved heart
Proof or what of what? Just a typo?
-
Coming Soon from MD Records Group
Take a listen to Jordan presenting the Sound of Soul last night to hear both sides of the Tomangoes, James Lately and a great unreleased Tommy Rodgers which is slated for a future release, plus some of the recent MD releases.

Dean Anderson's Sound of Soul, Thursday 8pm.
With Dean away on some jolly Jordan Wilson takes over the hot seat to present this weeks Sound of Soul ™ . Great selection of Soul and some peeks at forthcoming and future MD releases.

Nancy Butts
I would say that is the case, there is no way they were made for the UK scene. If the R does denote an RCA press then it was an early 70s press in the US.
-
Nancy Butts
The R could denote the RCA pressing plant at Rockway then, GM being the master, engineer or something else altogether? Rockway closed in 1973. Can anyone post a scan of the runout details?
-
Nancy Butts
another earlier topic as well.... Can someone confirm that the GM in the run out is followed by an R?
-
Nancy Butts
This could be the topic?
