As primarily a Detroit collector, I have tended to "accrue" certain titles through certain "blind faith", if indeed, that is the right phrase to use? Hence picking up a few previous unknowns from a personal perspective, and whilst my favourite musical "tipple" mainly originates from the 1960's, my ear is keen for the arousal factor, irrespective of era! The Invictus / Hot Wax labels in particular, a major part of the HDH output,and undeniably "contrived" to prolong their post Motown portfolio, with many classy 45 releases, which need no introduction ,however possibly a "left fielder" from my own usual selections includes a title that sounds better with each hearing...... Earl English-Wanting you-Invictus 1275 (from 1974), maybe a "marmite track" to some, but strikes the right note to me personally....It's on youtube..... alas I'm a Luddite....

Thanks Richard.

Hi Robb, Thanks for that response but the Terra Shirma question was related to the Boo-g-aloo label in particular.

Could anyone tell me please, where the Brothers of Soul recorded their output on the Boo label, assuming said label was Chicago based? Secondly were all the Boo-g-aloo recordings done at Tera Shirma? thanks wilxy

As previously mentioned, with such a huge portfolio, my own Motown favourites include many previously mentioned, however a few I have been airing regularly at home,are coincidentally all on the same label. Ivy Jo -I can feel the pain-VIP Vows-Tell me -VIP Underdogs-Loves gone bad-VIP

Hi Pete, Haven't got any of my old mags/fanzines anymore sadly, but guess it was requesting certain vinyl, applicable at the time???? Kind Regards Mike Wilks

I used to visit Birmingham regularly mid seventies and always head for the Oasis Market , for records from both Graham Warr , ( I'm afraid I can't remember what the other record stall was called?Would also shop for the odd the odd clothing items, however Faiths near the Bullring was the place for the finest Solatios of the time.....Halcyon days indeed

Must give my LBJ Label stuff another listen inclusive of the aforementioned US Everyday people.....!
