TBH Dave, I appreciate that the Valentinos were a Detroit group, always thought it was a Chicago production?

Detroit produced 45's on non-Detroit labels !
As a "Born Again Detroit" collector (specifically) for the last 20 years anyway, and having read some superb articles by some very well versed Soul Source contributors in relation to the Motor City over the years, I have been intrigued by the information gleaned regarding to "out of town artist(e)s utilising the superb recording facilities in Detroit! I appreciate there are some wonderful books and label related publications, regarding the entire Detroit label repertoire, including a superb label listing compiled by Chalky several years ago on Soul Source, but am both fascinated and eager to learn of the non-Detroit labels and artists that used the likes of United Sounds/Golden World studios to name but a few! I am aware of the labels such as American Arts, and Big Wheel and the obvious Atlantic, and Volt labels utilised by Ollie McClaughlin and Don Davis, and furthermore the hybrid Pied Piper material released courtesy of RCA, who were also a vehicle for many Detroit artist(e)s, but the anomalies are many.....Mike Terry produced many items on both Chicago and Philadelphia output, like Arctic, and Giant/Okeh, etc. but an "obvious" anomaly Billy Hambric-I found true love on Drum, written by Don Juan Mancha, that differences of opinion in several publications highlight.......I won't elaborate further at this stage but hopefully open up viewpoints and opinion, and furthermore glean more information to assist my collecting habit!!!

Manship’s copy of Cecil Washington on Prophonics
I'm possibly a bit wide of the mark, but prior to JM's recent auction of Cecil Washington, the last time I can remember seeing a copy listed on here was probably 8-10 years ago ? when Shifty used to sell on here......I actually missed the copy he had listed,but he was good enough to get me another copy from the US, which the guy sent me direct, and a near minter as it still remains ! It cost me a high 3 figure sum, back then, and whilst it remains one of my prized items, I do have many other pieces in my collection, that do it for me in preference......Irrespective, my records mean more to me personally nowadays, than they ever have prior! But that's another story............

Covid and Events
Due to my wifes' vulnerability following a kidney transplant three years ago, I have avoided attending any indoor events through fear of passing on any infection to her, since the lockdown was lifted! Attended my first football match in South Wales just over a fortnight ago, and came back with Covid.....Knocked me sideways for several days, alas passed it on to my wife who has been very poorly with it! Both of us double jabbed, and now she's "doubled up" It's out there....Be Careful.....
