In 1972 Sussex Records issue an album by a Detroit group called the Segments of Time. Michael Stokes and Joe 'Jobie' Thomas wrote the majority of the songs of which 'Will You Be Mine' & 'Memories' are reasonably well known dance cuts. Stokes produced the album and Motown's Willie Shorter was the arranger.

The recording took place at GM Studios in Detroit. Annoyingly the album cover doesn't name the members of the group. Its a fine if short album that seems to have been largely forgotten.

I've found a reference that Joe Billingslea of The Contours and Joe Thomas of Enchantment were involved and the latter may be one [[of four)guys on the front cover.

Any information as to who this group were would be good. Were they just a studio affair?

Now know this band were from Columbus, Ohio and consisted of at least one former member of the Royal Squires, Kenny Latham.

Further information gratefully received.
