The Yank

Great unreleased track -

I've got a feeling that Solid Hitbound productions got ahead of themselves when they ran the ad. Would still like to know if anything was cut on Sherry.

Sheet music for the group's 2nd single when they were still known as the Jayhawks -

While looking for something else, I came across this old ad in an issue of Record World from July, 1967. I'm assuming Sherry is Scherrie Payne, Freda's sister and future member of the Glass House and the Supremes. Does anyone know if she cut any tracks while she was with Groovesville/ Revilot/ Solid Hit ?

Really sad to hear this! With "Precious, Precious", "Both Ends..." , "This Time Baby" and many others, she left behind so much great Soul ! Here's Jackie performing her first single -

Paris was Ekundayo Paris aka Mr. Tears

According to discogs, the original 45 has the following matrix info- A side matrix - T-136-P-P- B side matrix- T-137-P-P- Most of the lookalike 45's I've seen are white label promos.

The album version clocks in at 3:30 - should be the same longer version -

Actually the Carbo brothers were Hayward "Chuck" Carbo and Leonard "Chick" Carbo , The rest of the Spiders were Joe Maxon, Matt West and Oliver Howard. When Maxon and West left they were replace by Bill Moore and Issacher Howard.

Darrell's version for me although George and Stevie are close. Jeff Conaway (who was also in the movie "Grease") is said to be the lead singer of the 3 1/2.

It was on the "Down To Earth" album unless you find this Brazilian single -

There's an instrumental version on the flip side of J.J. Barnes version of "Our Love Is In The Pocket" -

Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the album. The title seemed very familiar ( mostly because of the iconic 60's ad) and I googled a title search and came up with the picture. Sorry ........

Does the Joni Wilson recycle the Parliaments track or is this a new version ?

Album version -

The original -

A must ! !

The year posted on you tube for this release is wrong- it actually came out in early 1962. There's also a post suggesting the group is actually the Five Royales doing some moonlighting. If you listen to both sides- it could be .

Two more for the thread -

Here's another 45 from Richard Anthony- probably related to the Virtue artist instead of the European one -

Thanks for the info- after some research I found out the Lou Courtney is probably a mid '65 release while Howard's version is from February/ March 1966. There's also some lyric changes in the 2nd version which is why the writer's credits are different.

"I'm Gonna Miss You" topped the charts in Chicago and stayed there for 2 weeks-

Don't thank me- the info about Reggie/ Tony came from ......... Keith Rylatt's "Groovesville USA ".
