MIN. BID SEPTEMBER RARE SOUL AUCTION & A DENA BARNES IF YOU EVER WALK OUT INFERNO 2002 M- 600 OF MY LIFE WD Detroit song – lark Gardenia Barnes only ever made one 45 to our knowledge and it instantly sunk without trace in the Motor City only to achieve hallowed status in a famous Lancashire dancehall six or seven years later. B JOHNNY MAE I HAVE NO CHOISE BIG HIT 105 VG++ 850 MATTHEWS In contrast to Dena on item A, Johnny Mae was a mainstay of the Detroit black music scene – in reality one of the founders. Whilst one B. Gordy went onto bigger things (to put it mildly) Matthews had little commercial success with her recordings, many labels and productions. Her sons went onto form Black Nasty of ‘Cut Your Motor Off’ Fame. C LUTHER INGRAM IF ITS ALL THE SAME TO HIB 698 WD VG++ 400 YOU BABE Three Detroit gems in a row then and its difficult to believe now that the flipside, ‘Exus Trek’, was the big side back in the day. Common sense has prevailed over the years but it has to be admitted that, even minus Luther’s vocals, it is one hell of a band track from the great, great, Richard ‘Popcorn’ Wylie. D JUNE MONDAY YOUR KIND OF LOVIN SCEPTER12160 VG++ 200 One of the rarest Northern Soul records on the famous label and an oddity being a version of a side recorded earlier by Judy Clay (one of two releases of ‘You Busted My Mind’, on the flipside of the rarer one). The producer/writer, Tommy Kaye obviously had faith in it (it’s the same backing track). E HERB WARD STRANGE CHANGE ARGO 5510 D M- 500 See the forthcoming Richard Searling book ‘Setting The Record Straight’ for the story behind this one and the move towards more soulful midtempo sounds in the Casino’s later years. F VEE GEES TALKIN JUMP OFF 2002 M- 250 A very rare 1974 release that was impossible to find even 18 months later (I tried) and very typical of the kind of thing that made it to the famed ‘last hour’ sessions at the Highland Room. And its no wonder its rare…. How is a group name like that going to sound on radio? Similar thoughts about Jodi Mathis and Little Ritchie. G CHUBBY CHECKER YOU JUST DON’T KNOW PARKWAY 965 M- 700 Seeing as our head honcho Martin Koppel was the first to find an American copy of this one back in ’76 it is appropriate that we got a copy…. and its still a very rare U.S. release. Before that event all kinds of rumours abounded e.g. it was a UK recording (with folks not knowing that Conlo Productions were a Philly production unit). Still, it is rather strange that the 45 is only on a West Coast promo (November 1965). H CLIFF NOBLES MY LOVE IS GETTING ATLANTIC 2352 VG++ 200 STRONGER WD Quite rightly revived into a dancefloor packer in the early part of the noughties and still going strong to this day. Fortunately for the scene there’s still plenty of goodies like this one waiting in the wings…. I just wish I knew which ones they are were going to be! I STANLEY MITCHELL GET IT BABY DYNAMO 111 M- 700 We can’t keep away from Detroit this month! And its another, from Motor City maestro ‘Popcorn’ Wylie – as he once said to me, ‘the B-side, always the B-side (with reference to the UK) but, as I’m sure you know, the official A-side ‘Quit Twistin’ My Arm’ is also highly regarded these days. J JUDY FREEMAN & HOLD ON RCA 0493 D M- 300 BLACKROCK Due to the fact that this was a one-off at the time, its inclusion on the ‘Jumping At The Go Go’ album came as a real surprise, perhaps even a shock, to many. In fact, as it had never been popularised, many deejays (Ginger was one) played it off the album at the time. No problems with O.V.O then… as many an Emidisc testified. K COLLINS AND TOP OF THE STAIRS A&M 2233 M- 150 COLLINS A wonderful Modern Soul dancer of course, and, to be honest one we find pretty infrequently…. In fact we haven’t had a copy for some time and always get loads of calls when we set sale it. So, being the democracy we are – here’s a chance for everyone. L THE GOSPEL MORE LOVE, THAT’S UK CHESS 8080 VG++ 150 CLASSICS WHAT WE NEED Long before folks started examining Gospel recordings looking for a soul rhythm this one was filling dancefloors in the immediate post – Wheel era and at the time was rather unique. Unlikely Guy Darrell and Damita Jo its stood the test of time too. M SAM MOORE GIVE YOU PLENTY LOVIN’ ATLANTIC 2762 M- 550 Together, with the Ad Libs ‘You’ll Always Be In Style’ Blue Cat promo, this record is the most jaw- dropping discovery of the current millennium. I personally have owned the promo for 40 years and never ever found an issue copy before now (the one with the above on it), then of course the disc came out on Expansion with us all thinking it was a previously unissued track. Ian Levine changed that 10 years ago when he found this. Still very rare, possibly one of only three known MINT copies. What a record it is. N HOUSTON OUTLAWS AIN’T NO TELLING WESTBOUND 179 M- 300 WD Our first copy in a long time of this superb modern/crossover item that Northern Soul dancefloors love too. Don’t know too much about the group apart from the fact that they had two other releases on the label…. And that Westbound releases can actually be very hard-to-find (as this one proves). O PAT & THE (ALL I NEED IS YOUR) FAST EDDIE 102 M- 300 BLENDERS GOOD GOOD LOVIN’ Listed this wonderful Philly side as it is the RARER flipside to ‘Just Because’ and a gem in its own right. To remind you how good they are we have ‘Soundbitten’ both sides. SECOND PAGE FOCUS 1 JACKIE ROSS HONEY DEAR CHESS 13859 M- 10 The usual top class midtempo material from this great Chicago singer. 2 JIMMY ROBINS I CAN’T PLEASE YOU JERHART 207 M- 25 Last couple of copies, don’t miss out on the ultimate cheapie. 3 SYL JOHNSON FALLING IN LOVE AGAIN TMP-TING 6839 M- 10 Seriously good sixties double-sider from the mighty Syl. 4 BOBBY WOMACK I DON’T KNOW UNITED ARTISTS M- 10 561 Brilliant 70s dancer from the wonderous Mr Womack, actually got some Wigan Casino spins. 5 JOE SIMON DON’T LET ME LOSE SOUND STAGE M- 10 THE FEELING 2634 Another superb slice of Northern from this under-rated singer. 6 PAULINE & BOBBY NO MESSIN AROUND EXPO 102 M- 10 Excellent bongo-driven dancer out of Chicago has been woefully ignored. 7 JOHN EDWARDS VANISHING LOVE AWARE 045 WD M- 15 Non-album Southern groover from this great singer. 8 THE INTRUDERS (YOU’D BETTER) CHECK GAMBLE 204 M- 15 YOURSELF Storming Philadelphia soul from ’67. 9 THE C.O.D.’S I’M A GOOD GUY KELLMAC 1005 M- 15 Careering good time mover, simply murders ‘She’s Fire’ at 5 grand less. 10 LITTLE DOOLEY MEMORIES NORTH BAY 308 M- 15 Two tremendous early seventies dancer back-to-back.

  • Biographical Description for the Historymakers® Video Oral History with Mickey Stevenson
    Biographical Description for The HistoryMakers® Video Oral History with Mickey Stevenson PERSON Stevenson, Mickey, 1937- Alternative Names: Mickey Stevenson; Life Dates: January 4, 1937- Place of Birth: Detroit, Michigan, USA Residence: West Hollywood, CA Work: CA Occupations: Music Executive Biographical Note Music executive Mickey Stevenson was born on January 4, 1937, in Detroit, Michigan, and raised by his mother, blues singer Kitty “Brown Gal” Stevenson, and stepfather Ted Moore. From the age of eight, Stevenson performed in a singing trio with his younger brothers. In 1950, the group won first place at Amateur Night at the Apollo Theater in New York City. However, Stevenson’s musical career halted in 1953 when his mother, the group’s coach and producer, when his mother, the group’s coach and producer, passed away from cancer. Stevenson attended Detroit’s Northeastern High School. Stevenson joined the U.S. Air Force in 1956, where he was part of a special unit that organized entertainment for the troops. While on furlough in 1958, Stevenson saw a performance by the Four Aims—later known as the Four Tops—which inspired him to leave the military and pursue a career in music. Stevenson joined the Hamptones, touring with famed bandleader Lionel Hampton. Upon his return to Detroit, Stevenson met Berry Gordy, who told him of his plans to start a record label. Stevenson briefly worked as a producer and songwriter for Carmen Carver Murphy’s gospel label, HOB Records, until 1959, when Gordy hired him to head the artists and repertoire department at Motown Records. As Motown’s A&R executive, Stevenson was responsible for talent scouting, auditions, and managing the artistic development of recording artists and songwriters.

  • Detroit Rock & Roll by Ben Edmonds for Our Purposes, The
    "KICK OUT THE JAMS!" Detroit Rock & Roll by Ben Edmonds For our purposes, the story of Detroit rock & roll begins on September 3, 1948, when a little-known local performer named John Lee Hooker entered United Sound Studios for his first recording session. Rock & roll was still an obscure rhythm & blues catchphrase, certainly not yet a musical genre, and Hooker's career trajectory had been that of the standard-issue bluesman. A native of the Mississippi Delta, he had drifted north for the same reason that eastern Europeans and Kentucky hillbillies, Greeks and Poles and Arabs and Asians and Mexicans had all been migrating toward Michigan in waves for the first half of the 20th Century. "The Motor City it was then, with the factories and everything, and the money was flowing," Hooker told biographer Charles Shaar Murray." All the cars were being built there. Detroit was the city then. Work, work, work, work. Plenty work, good wages, good money at that time."1 He worked many of those factories, Ford and General Motors among them, and at night he plied the craft of the bluesman in bars, social clubs and at house parties. But John Lee Hooker was no ordinary bluesman, and the song he cut at the tail of his first session, "Boogie Chillen," was no ordinary blues. Accompanied only by the stomp of his right foot, his acoustic guitar hammered an insistent pattern, partially based on boogie-woogie piano, that Hooker said he learned from his stepfather back in Mississippi as "country boogie." Informed by the urgency and relentless drive of his Detroit assembly line experiences, John Lee's urban guitar boogie would become a signature color on the rock & roll palette, as readily identifiable as Bo Diddley's beat or Chuck Berry's ringing chords.

  • MUSIC 351. the Music of Motown Fall 2012, Tth 12:30–1:45 P.M., M-113
    MUSIC 351. The Music of Motown Fall 2012, TTh 12:30–1:45 p.m., M-113 Instructor: Maya Ginsberg ([email protected], 619.800.8389) M-256, office hours: TTH 9:30–10:30 a.m. This is a lecture class that surveys the music of the Motown Record Corporation, established in 1959 by Berry Gordy Jr. in Detroit, Michigan. By incorporating elements of jazz, gospel, and rhythm and blues, the creative minds and artists of Motown produced music that achieved “crossover” success, playing a significant role in the racial integration of popular music. This course examines the music, creative processes, technology, business practices, and the artists of Motown from the founding of the company in 1959 until the early1970s. Students in this class will examine the music and lyrics of a selection of representative songs by The Supremes, The Temptations, The Four Tops, Marvin Gaye, Stevie Wonder, and other Motown artists, including the studio musicians known as the Funk Brothers. The processes in creating these songs—including the role of the producer, engineer, and studio musicians—will also be examined. Through readings, students will learn about the business practices of Motown and also gain insight into social structures and the cultural environment that influenced and was influenced by the music of Motown. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: identify musical works and specific musical features of the music of Motown; place the music of Motown into a broader context of the history of American popular music; discuss how business practices relate to artistic enterprises; assess the relationship between popular music and culture; and discuss how social and cultural events influence and may be influenced by popular music.

  • Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in English by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 © Copyright by Kimberly Renee Mack 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Fictional Black Blues Figure: Blues Music and the Art of Narrative Self-Invention by Kimberly Renee Mack Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor Richard A Yarborough, Chair My dissertation examines representations of black American blues musicians in contemporary American fiction, drama, and popular music, and it argues that blues music can be examined as a narrative art rooted in the tradition of fictionalized autobiographical self- fashioning. I contend that the contemporary, multi-racial, literary and musical characters in my project who participate in so-called “authentic” blues expression create, sometimes consciously and sometimes unwittingly, a fiction on top of a fiction. This project questions the belief held by many blues scholars, critics, and fans that blues music is a racially essentialized form instead of a narrative tradition made possible through carefully constructed autobiographical and biographical fictions. ii My project makes two important interventions into traditional discussions of blues production and the representations of blues figures in 20th- and 21st-century American literature. First, it destabilizes racial, socio-cultural, temporal, and gendered blues tropes by shifting blues expression from an innate skill to a storytelling art form through which its makers invent themselves. Second, this study allows for a different, interdisciplinary approach to autobiographical and biographical expression.

  • Celebrate 50 Years of Motown with the Contours to Kick Off the Labor Day Weekend Celebration at Marsh Symphony on the Prairie
    For release: Thursday, Aug. 23, 2012 Contact: Jessica Di Santo – (317) 229-7082 Celebrate 50 Years of Motown with The Contours to Kick Off the Labor Day Weekend Celebration at Marsh Symphony on the Prairie INDIANAPOLIS- The Contours, featuring Sylvester Potts, will bring Hitsville USA to Marsh Symphony on the Prairie as the band belts out Motown favorites Thursday and Friday, August 30 and 31, at 8 p.m. on the stage of the Conner Prairie Amphitheater. Known as “Motown’s No. 1 Party Group” for more than 50 years, The Contours have been leaders in that genre since the 1960s. The group’s hit “Do You Love Me (Now That I Can Dance),” featured in the 1987 Academy Award winning film Dirty Dancing, is one of few recordings that have hit the Top 20 in separate decades.
