Not sure how long it might be to Motown Unreleased 1970 but I'm hoping for some tracks by Terry Johnson.

I was a bit puzzled on the 1968 Unreleased set by the tracks credited to TNT which it turned out was Terry along with Theresa Botial.

My assumption is that it is Terry Johnson's long time musical partner who also appears on The Flamingos revival shows and known as Theresa Trigg [[or just Trigg). They have a new venture Hot Fun Records and a YouTube channel.

Here they are performing live in a classic clip - turns out he's a mean saxophonist too.

You can also see the two Ts on stage with The Flamingos here and hear "What'cha Gonna Do" from The Motown Sound album...

Their website https://hotfunrecords.com/ states that Theresa Trigg 'has been writing, producing and performing since 1972.'

That’s definitely not the Theresa from the aborted T&T Project. That Theresa goes by Botial-Richardson. I found her on Facebook and contacted her in hopes of getting her to join the forum, but she never replied to my inquiry.

So many Terries lol. And a song of the same name too. Interesting though that in one piece above Theresa Trigg has been performing sine 1972 but in another since 1969.

I read that there were problems with her jealous boyfriend which ended the project.
