News: Review: Florida Soul by John Capouya
Red it and found it a thoroughly enjoyable book. Well documented and with many first hand witnesses. I enjoyed especially the chapter 'bout the twist craze and the feud between Hank Ballard and Chubby Checker and the ones 'bout James and the two Bobby Purifies. And the Henry Stone one also. Would recommend it also for the insights 'bout racial questions. Really good book

Desert Island Stevie Wonder Song
As an Italian I'm goin' with italian version of I'm wonderin'. It's funny to hear soul star singin' in another idiom, even if the results are kinda mixed up. In this tune, maybe the translators got some problems, 'cause there's a part that's sung in english.

Fame recordings - suggestions welcome
There are some of Bettye Swann outings on Atlantic that come to mind. They came out after her only record on Fame label ("I'm just living a lie") and they also were recorded at the Fame studios. They're "Victim of a foolish heart", "Today I started loving you again"and "Till I get it right" and they're all worth looking for in my opinion.

Luther Vandross For the sweetness of your love
Anybody knows something about an edited version for 7"? Saw the tune listed in a website collecting mix of Stafford tunes, saying that it was a Soul Sam spin back in the days, but maybe straight from the lp "Busy body"...

O.T. Sykes Stone crush on you
Could you tell me the differences between the two 7" on Fun City that have this tune? One has Come be my lady on the flip, the other one My first love. What comes first, if is there any significant diffrences for the value, maybe different mixes stuff like that. Thanks

Jerry Ross R I P
Great man. I was readin' just yesterday the chapter speakin' about him on the "That's the beat" book about Philly soul. He'd got a lot of skills: writin' tunes, producin', promotin 'em and he also was a great entertainer. He was really a full music man behind the scene.

Leroy Burgess - Genius or What?
I think so. Can't trace a 7" (ora a 12") version with a quick reaserch on the web
