@JRob,
In the states at least, putting wishes relating to guardianship of children has no legal effect aside from that, letting everyone know what you want.
To transfer guardianship upon death,...
Thanks Carlo. I don't buy from Rarewaves. The only overseas retailer I will generally buy from in the UK is Zoverstocks. They replace lost or missing packages promptly with hardly any questions...
Disc 1 makes no sense to me. "Sally Go 'Round the Roses?" "Nothing But a Heartache?" What is it that makes these LGBTQ anthems? Were they popular in the gay clubs at the time?
Disc 2 seems...
I’m trying to be patient, Carlo, but you know how it is!
As usual, Amazon doesn't seem to have the stock from its pre-orders. I ordered mine a couple months ago and they tell me I won't have it till at least May 9. You'd think a company with Amazon's...
These LP sized booklets mostly date from the early days of CD box sets. Sometimes even a large size box would be used simply to house 2 CDs. This was part of the effort, which was hugely...
What a great unusual set. I guess I didn’t know he had had a variety show back then. What a voice he has. if these recordings have been preserved nicely this looks like a fantastic set.
One of you could be the next Billie Jean Brown!
It is a great set. I love that early, unvarnished, innocent sound on the earliest of the Motown albums. Most of the major groups very first albums were like that, but in the Miracles case several of...
They better know who they’re dealing with!
Thanks as well for the other information Carlo!
Rarewaves-US often offers free shipping to the US but their Record is spotty and I’ve had bad experiences with their packages going missing. They also don’t give any refund or a replacement for...
I know most of Motown is true stereo, but I thought I had read that this album had some fake stereo cuts on it. I haven’t played them side-by-side to compare them. Do you happen to know?
I...
What fantastic news! I think Smokey’s songwriting and vocals were at their peak during their last years together as a group. And the prices on “What Love Has” from its long ago CD release are...
Great questions all. I hope some of the experts on this site can give us some insight.
I never thought I'd see the day! Well done, Mr. Clinton! Thanks for all the great music!
Thanks MotownEddie for letting us know!
@sansradio,
Thanks! That makes this set well worth it. For me with Nina Simone, I like her earlier recordings the best. She got so dark later it seemed in her delivery, it was kind of like I...
Here is the Detroit Free Press article describing the funeral. It mentions some of the celebs who sent flowers but doesn't mention who was in attendance aside from Stevie, Diane and Mary. It's in 2...
Very nice looking box set from the same folks who did the masterful Dionne Warwick boxes as well as the Jr. Walker set a few years ago.
Does anyone know if Nina's "live" recordings on this label...
Thanks Carlo! Ben shall remain nameless!
Yeah, where’s Ben when we need him???
That would be superb!
I forgot to mention the weirdest thing about this film! It was filmed in something they called Duovision and had two different sequences filmed side-by-side through the whole movie kind of like they...
The other night I was watching this weird flick on Turner Classic Movies called “The Catalina Caper“, which starred, of all people, former Mousketeer Tommy Kirk. Listening to the theme song over the...
Thanks for the link, @glenpwood! I didn’t see these the first time around.
What a great job he did. He went beyond just designing the covers to even thinking through the tracklist on each album,...
