The Yank

Hi Lorraine, Hope you enjoy seeing Mr. Barrowman as much as your first Johnny Mathis concert! Don't go silent on us though- let us know how it went .

I've seen "Baby Please Don"t Go" by Jo Ann Henderson on a Phono Graph 78 but I think that's more R & B or Popcorn than Soul.

The Supremes also did the song on their "Supremes A Go Go" album. I'm not sure if I could narrow down my choices to 10 Motown songs let alone one!

I think he borrowed the line from Ray Bryant's "The Madison"- "Give me a big strong line- it's Madison Time...."

Michael Bolton's version of "Reach Out I'll Be There" is unbelievably bad !

I like them both a lot but the J.J. Barnes version has the edge over Darrell's .

Maybe the idea was for the Record Store clerk to detach the corner and it would be easier to know what was selling? 90% of the time I see these sleeves- a) the corner is still attached and b) there is no info filled out on them.

Columbia also had the detachable corner on their 50's sleeves.

That's a mid 1950's sleeve from Capitol.

Final prices : Mel Britt- $3550 Del-Larks- $10,999 WOW !

Fuller Brothers- "Time's A Wasting " ?

There was the U.K. label which was around during the early 70's.

Imagine that .

There is a Detroit version by Steve Mancha (aka Clyde Wilson) on Wheelsville .

Why does the "F. Wilson Jr." credit have to refer to the Frank "DILY(IID)" Wilson? There was another Frank Wilson who was involved in the L.A. music scene in the 60's along with his brother Vance. He had some releases on Revue as Frankie Vance ( probably to avoid confusion with the other Frank Wilson). Also the F could stand for Fred, Ferdinand or even Fabio for all we know.

As far as I know it's only available on the "A Cellar Full Of Motown" Volume Two CD.

I don't think they ever "moved" to Chicago. I believe they had a distribution or company branch in Chicago but I would alomost swear they were always based in Cincinnati

Don't worry about it. Thought I'd forgot something.

Also, a lot of companies started subsidiaries it was thought that radio stations might not play a new release on a label because it would be perceived they were showing favoritism towards a label. The Gordy label was started when Berry found out his first wife Thelma was going to start a record label called Gordy. Soul was supposed to be for the harder R& B releases. ps- What Kim Weston is on Soul ?? Was obviously typing a lot of this while the other answers were being posted.

Finally had a chance to play mine.All was fine except for the Temptations 45 which jumped during the intro.

I have what is(probably) an early press of #512 with no release # or publishing credits- someone handwrote "Heno Pub. Co." and SA 512 on the "Everybody..." side. On the "You Stood Me Up " side, Merill is scratched out and "Heno" is handwritten as the music publisher.

I think the whole album was released as singles but it was for promotion only in the USA. Once in awhile the promo pack shows up on e-bay. Or.. just get "The Way I See It" CD.

I got a 90%. Even though I was warned about the Four Tops question- I still got it wrong !

"Harmour Love" ( the B side of "WLHJT" )did have a U.S. 45 release but with a different B side ("Cause We've Ended As Lovers" ). I don't think Syreeta's version of "What Love Has Joined Together " came out on 45 in the U.S.
