The 'Detroit Sound' side could be a previously unissued Motown track?? I mean, I don't know but it uses 'Festival Time' as backing rhythm....completely as it is on the Gordy release by the San Remo Strings. If it's not a Motown production then Berry Gordy could have sued.

I do have an EX copy if that's any good to you? I know you asked for M- but just thought I'd ask...

Marvin & Tammi - This Poor Heart Of Mine, from the 'Easy' album. Remember having this on a tape years ago c/up as 'Situation Desperate'.

A speeded up bootleg credited to Eddie Holland. A dubious blank label A proper/legit one on Motown, late 80's with picture sleeve but a 'mixed' version (yuk!)

Ghetto Boys I thought?

I have Major Lance 'Investigate' on a black label Okeh 45...got it many years ago...are they okeh? (pardon the pun).

I bought one and it sounds good but must admit the shady mystery behind the group and lack of details points to a recent recording?? I hope I'm not right.

No release mate, CD only I believe.

Anyone got a scan of the first one? I believe the first take is on one of those 'The Northern Soul Story' L.P's....volume 3 I think.

Mike & The Censations, flip of 'Don't Mess with Me' (Highland) 'There Is Nothing i Can Do About it' ...brilliant beat ballad.!!

Huns Review - Don't Make Me Love You - Sorro....car boot sale in the 1980's ..10p, thought it looked 'Northern' so took a chance (lol!). Sold it to a mate for £60 then decided I needed it again and got a minter for £50. Majestees - Take back All Those Things (Mutt) ...Soul Bowl £30, bought it 'cos it was Detroit...lovely! Delegates Of Soul - I'll Come Running Back (Up Look) ....Soul Bowl £30 'cos Andy Davies recommended it, I took it home, played it and was disappointed!!! I didn't really like it. Traded it for £60 of other tunes....realise now I made a mistake and I love it...doh!

It's easily obtainable if you don't mind L.Ps. The L.P used to be everywhere...car boots etc and is on a budget label 'Hallmark' I think. It's called 'Midnight Blues' and has a couple of really nice R&B/Soul tunes as well as the title track..

Hopefully, if Jonathan's local paper has got hold of the story some residents of his town/city may start a collection for him so he can purchase some of the damaged records. I'd definitely try that route Matt.

That is some bad luck! I hope he has a swift recovery.I don't have any of those records but good luck in your search.

They are a blue-eyed group aren't they, I always presumed they were??

Looks good, didn't realise Jimmy McFarland was a blue-eyed soulster.

Is that one of the RCA cd's Ady? Volume 3 by any chance?

NEVER LISTEN TO B SIDES??!! Time you started Steve, you'll miss some corkers!

Too lazy to research...reminds me of the time 'Atomic Kitten' were on some show singing 'The Tide Is High' and the female host proclaimed "nice version of the Blondie original".....made me shout at the TV..."it's the bloody Paragons 1967 aargghhh!!!!!"

Thought Gino washington (the 'Detroit' guy) guest sang with them too?

That is brilliant Neil, thanks for sharing that story about the Atco release

Here's one...

There is a cheaper release, still on HIB but an Atco release, not 100% sure of the ins & outs of it but it is legit. I paid £25 for an Atco release (orange HIB) but that's about 15 years back!
