Thelma and more...

[tjl]

Yes I just love Thelma - it's a great clip and the band always sounds wonderful. She's a real live wire on stage even now but the clip seems to be from 2002 [[?) so over 20 years old now and still as fresh as ever. I'm glad Thelma hit it big [[finally) with this song but on a personal level nothing can reach Harold Melvin & The Bluenotes on this song [[there I've said it).

Loving all your videos on YouTube and there are some I keep coming back to. I'm really fond of The Paris Sisters "I Love How You Love Me" - Priscilla seems so frail so it's a poignant clip and may be the only live clip of the girls singing the song [[at least that I can find)? I'd love to hear the story behind this video.

Thanks for posting these treasures TJL - can't wait to see what comes next [[who else did you capture on the British Invasion?).

Hi - yeah, it's was very odd how the Paris Sisters got on the show. We were using a payroll company in LA. The person handling the payments said ya know I used to sing - and that was Albeth. It was just a few days before taping and she said she's love to sing with her sisters. So, we paid for the first flight a red eye and her the flight got cancelled she took the next one after being up all night - and they went right on from the airport. Then the audio tape for their session has a major recording fault - which wasn't repaired until I got the rights to all my early shows back a few months ago.

It was then that I found a camera isolation reel made as a back up which was fed inadvertently with their audio - so that's why I was able to post it. Eventually all the clips and shows will be posted, not just tv - but I've done radio for just as long, plus interviews that were never seen as well. So my plan is to keep releasing as much as possible.
