    Don't know if it's already been done,how about the ojays versus the metros on I'll never forget you. Chris.

    It's amazing Gilly how one thing leads to another,this has all come from Tim posting the photos of Nabay and Dena Barnes on here.There is nothing I would like more than to meet up with you guys all together.Bring your photos and experiences with you,I will simply turn up and listen. Chris.

    I can imagine that Tim,I've read several articles about Bob Babbit,he also co wrote and produced Irene and the scotts stuck on my baby along with Mike and Ray.I also read that he slowly started to replace the Great James Jamerson at Motown,when James started becoming more and more unreliable.I think what eventually happened to James,was a real tragedy. Chris.

    Hi Tim,I've always been interested in the back ground stuff as you call it.I always wondered what the connection was between Nabay and Bob Babbit as you know Bob co wrote the song under his real name Robert Kreiner. With you putting the photo on here and the write up on Nabay you have answerd that question. Cheers Chris.

    Hi Andy,your right about Pete Lowrie having some good hits in detroit.I got an absolute prestine unplayed w/d of both Duke Browner and Jock Mitchell off him and just missed out on a Nabay.When I asked him how he managed to find them in that condition he said they were file copies,so I guess they came from the same source as the sheet music. Chris.

    That's answers a question I was going to ask you Gilly.I thought the Bonnie release was prior to the Impact release.I can understand you being a bit miffed after they came to prestatyn and people jumping on the bandwagon.I had the same happen to me,when a good few years ago I came on here after coming to the conclusion that the Smith Brothers and the Magnificents on Mam were the same group.

    If you listen to Same old feeling and Lady in Green,it's defiantly the same lead vocalist.However the lead changed on there Inferno recordings.

    As far as I'm concerned Gilly you guys were at the forefront years ago. Although I've met several artists when they have come to the UK,I envy You ,Tim,Andy etc meeting them on there own Turf so to speak.When ever we've had a chat about this I've always found it intriguing.

    Hi Gilly,I know when Andy Ricks tried contacting him he got a rather Frosty reception.I look forward to reading your book when it comes out.Its a real shame you guys were not able to get him to come to the UK where he could have seen just how much his music was loved. Chris.

    I've only just found out after all these years that the Bonnie label which had the Magnetics Lady in Green was one of Duke Browners Nick names,hence Harry Baulk his good friend and label owner,naming it after him.Does any one have anything to add to this? Chris.

    Please accept my apologise Tim,for not using your name when messaging you,I'm hopeless at this I'm afraid.I can't Waite to see what else you've got up your sleeve. Chris.

    It's absolutely fantastic to see the photo of Dena Barnes,thanks for sharing it with all of us.I would also like to thank you for providing me with the Darrell Banks red and white stateside demo many years ago. Chris.

    As a novice to Jamaican music,can anyone tell me the difference between Rock Steady and early Reggae,when reggae was using brass instruments,Reed instruments and strings. Thanks Chris.

    For me this is David Ruffin at his best.

    Beautiful Mint - copy,hard to find in this condition. £400. Please p.m. if interested,many thanks.

    As far as I can remember,the instrumental that Guy used to play at Stafford was definitely Back Street.

    I remember having a lengthy talk with Edwin in 2000 when he and Bill Randle brought JJ Barnes and Steve Mancha over to Birmingham.Not only was he a great singer,he was also Gentleman.
  18. Wheelsville1
    He certainly wasn’t underrated by Berry Gordy,Edwin was one of the main reasons why Berry bought Golden World and Ric Tic off Ed Wingate.
  19. Wheelsville1
    I will second that,your absolutely right.
  20. Wheelsville1
    For me it has to be Edwin by a Mile,especially when you have it on a red and white polydor demo.
  21. Wheelsville1
    Alton Ellis and Pat Kelley are artists to look at,they were both amazing singers.
  22. Wheelsville1
    Does anyone have an idea as to why the running time on the west coast copy is 2.00 minutes and yet the east coast bell sound copy is 2.15. Many thanks.
  23. Wheelsville1
    I guess so chalky,on that note your right.
  24. Wheelsville1
    As I said in a topic a few months ago,when talking about what music I like,I always use the word Soul,never Northern Soul.Talking about a singer like this on a Soul forum is an absolute Joke.

    Whilst on the subject of records pressed in Pittsburgh,I’ve always been dubious of the Tommy Neal- going to a happening on pink pamline.
