Just thought it was worth adding that Shelly Garrett (RIP 2018) who, at one stage was married to Melissa Morgan received a "Hollywood, walk of fame star" in 2018. I have attached a link about him http://www.shellygarrettentertainment.com/BIOGRAPHY.htm

This article tells all https://concord.com/artist/sam-cooke-the-soul-stirrers/

I never knew, until very recently, that the Duprells were signed to back Sam Cooke just before he was killed.

100% agree and a NM copy on Evil Bay sold for £32 in February (It was in Canada though, so shipping and taxes would apply if purchased in to the UK) https://www.popsike.com/NORTHERN-SOUL-Darrow-Fletcher-PAIN-GETS-A-LITTLE-DEEPER-Reo-45-rare-Canada-NM/285652367768.html

There is some history on Popsike, hope this helps https://www.popsike.com/php/quicksearch.php?searchtext=gene+anderson+–+i+dig+you+ambassador&layout=&sortord=

Fantastic article Jordan, so informative and precise. Thought would add his memorial so folks can see a few pictures of him that were posted after his passing, November 25th 2021 https://www.dignitymemorial.com/obituaries/sacramento-ca/george-flores-10470809

Dave Pinch had a boot for sale here. He "might" still have it

There was a great thread about the tapes here, which you may have already seen and it's an interesting read. https://soulfuldetroit.com/showthread.php?20192-John-Manship-Acetate-Tapes A copy just sold on evilbay for £26

Found a poster with the group performing with some serious people and Frank promoting it

Spotted this quote Kev "Chris Jackson came to us through a manager called Bill Barnes. Bill Barnes was a New York based manager that worked with a lot of Philadelphia acts. He was responsible for the Ad-Libs, he also worked with Van McCoy and that’s how we got connected to Chris Jackson. He came to London and that’s when we met him." https://www.britishrecordshoparchive.org/shops/soul-city/

Well spotted could be

Elsie (Debonaires) has just told me the following about the girls backing Ed Crook "He had a recording studio in his basement and we recorded there. It was on the West side of Detroit but I don’t remember the street. He was so kind and showed his appreciation to us as we were so young as you can tell from our sound!! that’s all we remember about Edgar, nobody remembers the name of the street, just that it was on the West Side and we’re not positive about that, it was so long ago and Joyce Vincent’s mom took us there and she has passed away"

Speaking to Elsie last night and was asking her about Silky and was shocked, but not surprised, that the Debonaires did the backing vocals for "Keep Loving Me (Like You Do)". Another one ticked of the list ✔️

There's a great piccy of him on the Tuff City LP from 2021

So if a European uses a US sample who or which area covers the law Mike ? I am correct in thinking that if the Copyright was used in the UK from the US it would then fall under EU law ?

One of my first LP's when I passed my driving test. Sold it and found another in a Paris street market Rest In Peace Michael and you got my life Goin' Places that I never thought I would go

I have to admit that I have no knowledge of the law regarding samples and found this useful, it seems, article which gave me some more info (I hope it's correct Mike ?) https://www.nolo.com/legal-encyclopedia/permission-sampled-music-sample-clearance-30165.html

I have no idea, found this on Ebay, it's a matchbook cover (cool)

Discogs seller is "trying it on" me thinks

I remember finding the original LP in an attic years ago on a record dig, what a story, thanks for posting, brilliant

I remember Sam Dees telling me about "not getting paid for some work" I wonder who it was ? What a fantastic release Ady, thanks Porn goes Soul, what a story this was in 1978 https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/1978/11/10/a-prince-of-porn-is-captured-after-7-months-of-freedom/79fdebd8-6607-4cb1-9ded-0f7285f3c2c8/
