Hey chalky, did snakepit's show peak your curiosity? I have to say that Silky track was fantastic and I want to know more about him too.

I don't know anything sadly but here's his discogs page: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=timL6caVWIM

Also, what an awesome name!!!!

there is some interest on another forum regarding Silky Hargraves[[particularly a photograph), it is not my show that has prompted Chalky's post...just coincidence.
He made a few excellent tracks....watch out for more on the SS soon.

Here's Silky singing an unreleased version of Emanuel Lasky's "Lucky To Be Loved By You", recorded by Don Davis' and Hazel and Robert Coleman's [[Thelma Gordy's parents') Thelma Records:

Nice Robb
Similar to Emanuel's both worth hearing

Most of the backing tracks are the same. It's the vocals that are very different - but both very good. Hard to believe Davis leased Lasky's to a similarly small New York label, and they left Silky's in the can. It's my favourite Thelma backing track mix. It's right up there with top Motown quality.
