Black music magazine in the uk

[timmyfunk1]

Over a decade ago, I announced plans to post vintage record ads and rare R&B/Soul images. Now that I'm back on the site, I'm going to fulfill that promise.201602016120162201632016420165

Thank you for all of this. I LOVE these vintage ads and magazines. I'm in a group on FACEBOOK called IN THE GROOVE and I've posted several there. There are some heavy music lovers over there btw.

A lot of "Pye Black Umbrella" ads there.

I went to a Pye Black Umbrella promotion back in 1976 - I think it was at a film studio - and came away with copies of the Real Thing album and the Barry White "Is This Watcha Wont" album.

I also got given a black umbrella with the Pye logo printed on it, i.e. a real Pye black umbrella. It was only a great umbrella until it rained, however. More than a light shower and it would start raining through the umbrella.

Good albums, though. :)
