Looking for a UK Stateside Demo. Any out there for sale ?

The Rubies eh.....I rarely covered up my finds back in the day.

Correction on the Jay D Martin. I first played it the night I found the Jewels. Both purchased from Max Millward in late 1973. To my ears they were unknowns. The Kid was a huge seller as a youth club song way before Wigan. Lynn Randell started at the Mecca with Ian L.

Yep....the very same. Without the 'soul' influence on this particular programme, I endured The Overlanders and Black Lace Fortunately I met a top guy Jeff Christie(Yellow River fame) who's from Leeds. He wrote The Patrick Bradley-Just One More Chance while recording it himself for his group at the time...Outer Limits.

Major was a tricky character and would often create problems for promoter Chris Burton. We tend to overlook it due to ML's legendary status. I was a resident every Sunday at the Heavy Steam Machine in 1974 along with Chris Williams. The venue was completely wrong for Northern due to the 'light show heavy' club feel plus..... a cinema above didn't help. Tony Clarke's Landslide upset quite a few trying to watch BENJI. We were safe though if The TOWERING INFERNO was shown

Kiki is certainly well aware. Well from the early 90's when I was chatting to her at Midem. In fact I still have her email address and dropped Frank Wilson's details to her several years later. I think I mentioned it was around £100 back then......she needs an update! She also took part in a Bank Holiday Special I did for Magic in 1991 titled West Yorkshire Hitmakers. Bobby 'You're Ready Now' Bennett was also on that programme. Ha!

Recorded about 2 years ago just before I left Smooth.

I considered her a friend and she was one of my regular listeners to Signal 2(Staffs/Cheshire). Born Yvonne Burgess in Newcastle U Lyme she was a sparkling talent who knew first hand how to write hit songs. As a Northern fan she particularly liked Queen of Fools - Barbara Mills! Those Pet Clark sides were outstanding RIP Yvonne.

The record was covered by the Soulmasters aka Shakatak and released in 1980.

He dated my sister hence he got in my good books. Several months later I met Butch and he bought a lot of my unknowns in early 1982.

The 'My Heart Still Belongs To You' is also by Van McCoy. That came from me.

m No, I sold that to Richard Searling.

I think Jim got some of the acetates from me. The Charmaines I believe is Van McCoy. From the same load I got 'I Go Out Of My Mind' also by Van and not Chris Bartley. The Ad Libs plus other titles he purchased around the time I sold him JD Bryant on Shrine. Strangely Butch, Tim Ash and myself were discussing him only this afternoon. Hope he's well wherever he is.

If anyone wants to bring Flint and his new group into the UK, I will supply contact details.

Robb- I found Flint and put him in touch with Bob A. I declined bringing them into the UK as the lead singer is deceased plus there's only 1 or 2 originals remaining.

Not sure Mike. If I come across it I will upload

There should be an article on them which I wrote back in 2011 Check the archive on this site. It's somewhere as a 'news feature'

YES

Goldmine pressed the PEGGY GAINES after it being on a cd in my office for 5 years! Kent discovered it I believe but at the time Goldmine dealt with the same licensor and eventually released a small pressing of around 300 I think. Probably bad timing as the fantastic unreleased track had become associated with Ace/Kent making ours fairly anonymous.

Pm'd you

Just noticed she passed away in the last few hours. A tad of throwaway trivia......She had an early Wigan spin with her version of the Apollas 'Just Can't Get Enough of You and later My Town My Guy and Me. Barbara Jean English who I produced in the 80's did the original Demo of It's My Party in 1963. She had a connection with many a youth club back in the day with Maybe I Know too! Full details of her career history are pretty much everywhere on Google. RIP Miss Lesley Gore
