Not sure if its the same Eddie O'Jay but, there was an R & B disc jockey with that name who worked in Milwaukee and Cleveland. He later managed the local group the Mascots who later changed their name to the O'Jays in honor of Eddie.

I don't think this was released as a 45 in the U.S., it is on the "You're All I Need" album though.

Sounds like it was another American International movie. They specialized in low budget movies aimed at teenagers- "The Ghost In The Invisible Bikini", "Muscle Beach Party", "Bleach Blanket Bingo", "Bikini Beach", "It's A Bikini World", "Ski Party" etc. etc. But... on the plus side they usually featured at least one Soul act in their movies (The Supremes, James Brown, The Toys, Stevie Wonder) .

DARRELL BANKS AMERICAN BANDSTAND SHOW?
I think "Where The Action Is" is still a good bet since it was affiliated with Dick Clark Productions. "Shindig" and "Hullabaloo" would be two other good sources. Good luck with the Darrell Banks clip- would love to see it!

COMMODORES AUTOGRAPHS
There were 3 other Commodores in the group at the time of "Zoom"- Ronald LaPread , Milan Williams and Walter Orange. The last signature doesn't look like Ronald Lapread, Walter Orange is "Walter the Brick House Man" so it probably is Milan Williams ?
