Marv: I don't know what we would do with your expertise and input into our forums. You are truly an asset to the Forum. We should all be grateful.

I did read the background on Carl. Oddly enough, they FAILED to mention that he was under contract with Golden World and actually released a single 45 on the label. Everyone seems to overlook the GW-RT periods of recording artists lives.

Thanks again. Otherwise, we would not have know this.

Thank you so much Woodward! A song I remember really liking by Carl way back was "I Won't Let That Chump Break Your Heart".

Carls wife I believe it was came on a Motown site about a week ago to report that Carl was recovering well. He did cancel one performance at that point... I'm not sure whether he had a TIA [[Transient Ischemic Attack) that I actually experienced a couple of years ago, also known as a "mini-stroke" caused by a temporary blockage of oxygen to the brain, or a more significant episode, although a TIA that can be quite frightening. It was reported that Carl was alert and talking following the episode which is a good sign as speech is significantly affected from a stroke following an initial episode, so it sounds like it was fortunately not a massive event... Wishing Carl a speedy recovery and return to the stage...
