  1. the person I talked to told me they were in jet december 17th 1970. This was before jet was online. I just found it, was hoping it would be an article or a picture, it's just a chart. Still looking for the photo:
  2. It's "Ronald Noel" not "Nore". I talked to one of the members and his sister sent me an incredible photo, will try to dig it out to post.
  3. i don't recognize either but the second one sounds clearly White to me
  4. for the record I wasn't making fun of his grammar, I was saying that I thought it was used wrong and when I checked it was correct in this case.
  5. I'm not sure but I think Janion is first just because the Core release says "Janion Music BMI". However, this is not definitive obviously. If I had both releases I would compare deadwax to see if the same plates were used, a date was there, etc. but I only have the Core release. I think they're the same label though, as they have the same catalog number (102) and the group's next release is 104. Do you have the second record "loneliness" on elmcor? very hard to find.
  6. The only colored wax thing on Action Pac I know was a DIY Punk looking EP of 4 songs that they themselves put out in the 80s. It has a killer ballad called "do it right the first time" that has them singing over like a casio with the built in rhythm on. I'm pretty sure there are "repros" of at least one of the doowop titles on Swinging. but I'm sure this one has not been booted.

    I have the Brothers Aquarius 45, both sides are good. I think Ron was one of the owners of Aidqueen.
  8. I'm pretty sure you automatically will lose if you do it all online and then have to call them to appeal. Making the phone call is the best step you did.

    there are a bunch of northern records from san diego, some expensive
  10. boba replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    He's not starting them low though so he's not allowing a crash. Overall still rarer than gamble in the bigger scheme of things I think.
  11. i don't think he has much connection to it other than writing, does he? what's interesting is the OKC uptown syndicate connection
  12. i thought "eulogize" only applied to people that had died or things that were gone but I just looked it up and it can just be used to praise something absent the context of death. So this auction has not only taught me about records but has also taught me additional nuances of the english language. Thanks!
  13. i think the frankie beverly on there is also slightly different than the 45
  14. boba replied to a post in a topic in Look At Your Box
    that ohio seller has sold some of the other copies, they have a few at least
  15. I don't even know that title. It's crazy how many titles were released vs. how rare everything is. Thanks.
  16. There is one in popsike for $50 (and I've seen it sell for less once) but it's not known and is very rare so it does depend on whether it becomes in demand or not.
  17. it's probably a $25 record, not common at all but the cheapest thing on the label due to lack of demand. I didn't make the connection before but Ron Rush on that 45 is one of the people who ran the Aidqueen label
  18. I apologize for misreading the motivation of and emotion in your followup post asking why nobody had responded to your previous post.
  19. random insider information -- there were actually two "Tom"s. Tommy Dark actually isn't on the original ABC record, this guy who runs (or at least ran) a photography studio on 87th street was. But he left and Tommy toured on the record and is on all the other records.
  20. ok I just read the soul strut thread Kris posted. Although it still leaves it unclear, it gives much more evidence of it being an R&B thing first, including a quote from Joe Bataan saying so. John you are wrong
  21. ok thanks, i guess it's clear as mud then, just all evidence has been wiped out. i still think it was in r&b first, as proven via record titles. i also even gave an example of a latin cut that did not use the word in the title -- Joe Cuba's "bang bang" has to be one of the first and biggest boogaloo hits
  22. Roburt, are you sure that boogaloo was invented in Latin music and then taken as a specific dance in R&B music? I always thought it was the reverse. What is an example of a latin boogaloo cut before 1965 (the tom and jerry-o record date)? For example, I searched and found Ray Barretto "midnight boogaloo" on United Artists, but it is from 1966. I think Chicago Soul says it's the reverse also. I think it was a specific R&B dance and then a Latin music style. Also, btw, I think the most important Boogaloo artist by far was Joe Cuba, he really pushed the sound and is known or it. "bang bang" was even a hit in Chicago, but it was from 1967.
  23. I played patti jo the other day and was wondering who she was, I know / knew nothing about her. Thanks for the info.
  24. nice, lots of great detroit emeralds 45s on the label. This was their first big hit in chicago I prefer the other side though, it's awesome:
