  3. Phil Walden's son killed in a freak accident in Atlanta

    I know it isn't Detroit related, but Walden's history with Otis Redding and as a manager or booking agent for so many great artists [[then later with Capricorn Records) makes this noteworthy.

    I don't. Wish I did.

    I'll take to Jake a bit more about Rosa. I very well could be mistaken, but he's never mentioned her singing before. I'll let you know what I hear.

    Hey Graham,

    Actually, Jake owned that label. If you look at the production label on most, if not all, the 45s, J. Mitchell is there. He did a lot of the leg work for the eight or nine Golden Hit...
