Capitols - Intentions
A young music devotee, Clay Barclay set up a recording studio in his Parents basement in Orwigsburg Pennsylvania and recorded this tune for posterity, as well as "The Traditions" (Barclay), "Bobby Penn & Penpals" (Up-Tight) and "Vic & Catalinas" (Barclay) as well as unreleased stuff by "The Motiques" and "James And The Incredible Showmen". Although a real budget outfit, "The Traditions - Girls - Barclay" reputedly sold over 10,000 copies! Des Parker

Capitols - Intentions
The group on "I'm Losing Your Love" were from Pennsylvania, and part of the "Barclay" group of labels (Traditions - My Life With You etc), and amazingly nothing to do with the groups of the same name from Harrisburg, and Philadelphia. Quite a low budget stable of labels, so likely they "borrowed" heavily from the Capitols track. Des Parker

Should All Dj`s Get Paid For Their Spots?
This is a bit a non story, as far as I'm concerned. I've been fortunate to have D.J.'d at Dozens & Dozens of venues in the last few Years, never talked about Money before the event, always been looked after, made welcome, and don't think there's 1 promoter I've had dealings with, that I wouldn't D.J. for again (though whether they'd ask me is another thread) - Sorry for not being controversial, but let's have some balance here.

Ann Byers, I'm Happy Without You
Frank Bendinelli told me that he rated her as a Singer way, way above Patti (Patti & Emblems) but Ann Byers was an absolute nightmare to work with, he thinks she committed suicide - a troubled Soul. Des Parker

Margaret Little On Genebro
First copy bought in Toledo for $7. Just a theory, but I'm still convinced this is a "Custom" record, although the backing is good, her voice is not good (to say the least), in comparism to the people that "Popcorn Wylie" had at his disposal - which would explain why nobody ever got a copy from him, he didn't even have a file copy, coz he made it for somebody else. Maybe all the other copies are in Margaret Littles loft? Des Parker

People Who Don't Dance
This old chestnut again. There's a variety of reasons as mentioned before, why people don't dance, mine is a combination of laziness, obesity, being sat behind boxes of sales. Each to his own & all that, but to make some bizarre link between D.J.'s that dance, and the quality of music played is unfounded. Butch and Andy Dyson are not currently known for hitting the dancefloor for Hours at a time, yet in many's Eyes are the best D.J.'s in the country. Surely, It's how the music takes you inwardly! Next we'll be having "Who's the biggest Soul fan - based on the number of patches you have sewed onto your clothing" Des

Whats The Rarest Re-issue
A couple of years ago had 2 copies of "Roy Hamilton - Let The Music Play" on Adey C's "Kent" label. These were large centre hole, black & white labels, 4 Diamonds design, even with Kent address - I assume they weren't legal, but haven't seen any copies since, anyone shed any light. Des
