Harold Burrage On MPAC Boot
Might or might not help but according to Discogs original is 1304-01-A 3018 ∫∫ matrix, so mastered at Sound Studios, Chicago. If it is a boot it would be hard to replicate ?

The DJ Copies had the distribution as well. I always wondered where the Limelight releases fitted in. but I guess Bob let Mercury have it ?

Gladys Knight- How Do You Say Goodbye
I checked through Bill Dahl's interview with Bubba in 2020 and I can't see it mentioned, perhaps someone can contact Bill to ask the question. https://www.sunsetblvdrecords.com/blog/2020/10/20/gladys-knight-amp-the-pips-essential-1961-1965

AL REED ON AXE BLOCKED FOR SALE IN DISCOGS
Looks like the "threat" of legal consequences also meant that David Ruffin's LP ( all 25 different releases) "My Whole World Ended" are blocked from sale too as Al wrote "Message From Maria".

Cholli Maye - who was she?
No mention of here being Cholli here Joyce Harris was born in Kentucky in 1939 and moved to New Orleans with her family when she was 13 years old. Harris learned to play guitar, write songs and was soon performing duets with her younger sister Judy. They released three singles – ‘He’s The One’ / ‘Hey Pretty Baby’, ‘Washboard Sam’ / ‘Nursery Rock (Beedle De Bop)’ and ‘Hey Little Baby’/ ‘Rock And Roll Kittens’ – as Judy and Joyce in 1958. When her sister got married, Harris spent a year singing in restaurants in Mexico and a first solo single ‘It’s You’ / ‘The Boy In School’ was released on New York’s U.T. Records at the end of 1959. A talent spotter saw her in Mexico and was impressed enough to secure her an audition with the Austin, Texas-based Domino label. Harris was soon in the studio with Tommy Kaspar and Don Burch of Domino’s vocal quartet, the Slades, to record ‘I Cheated’ / ‘Do You Know What It’s Like To Be Lonesome?’ (R-903) in October 1960. ‘No Way Out’ / ‘Dreamer’ (R-905) followed in January 1961 and sold strongly enough to be licensed to Infinity Records. On 7 April 1961, Harris performed ‘No Way Out’ live on TV on American Bandstand. Three more singles would be issued on different labels between 1963 and 1966. https://acerecords.co.uk/joyce-harris

I have been trying to find out more about Allan but no real clues as to what happened to him Rick or who he was. Some people just stop it seems and never record again

Jimmy Mack
As you hopefully know, as with so many backing recordings that Elsie and the girls (and boys) did, they often did not come in contact with the main vocalists as recordings were done separately. I asked Elsie ages ago the exact same question about Jimmy Mack and glad you have confirmed what she told me (I had forgotten with all the stuff she filled me in on). My "Baby Doll" could write a book about the 100's if not 1000's of backings they did.

When I asked Curtis Rogers (People's Choice) I was hoping, but of course he had no idea, why would he.

Mike Terry arranged Jimmy and People's Choice both May, 1967. Shame no one knows and goodness knows I and others have tried. I think it's a long gone ask, but here's hoping.

Brilliant Ken I have the found link from 2005 which may be the start of the story http://www.heybabydays.com/Aqua_Lads.pdf "Donald Eugene Swift was a singer, a drummer, a song writer, mostly Carolina Beach music. He and his cousin – more like a brother – Darryl Harringon, started bands, played together and apart -- starting the Psychotic Reactions and playing with the Aqua Lads, the Soul Review, and The Entertainers, among others. Donnie sang and drummed up and down the Carolina coast for 18 years." https://www.marionnelson.com/obituary/2536137 In concert with The Drifters and another with The Tams- Scammer?
