Happy Birthday: to everyone celebrating Birthdays on September 10th.:)
Thank you WestGrand. I really do appreciate coming here every year and being wished a Happy Birthday. Thank you my friend.
Marv
Marv, you are also most welcome here on every single one of your Un-Birthdays, LOL
You, and anyone else signed in at the time, are also welcome to post pics here of any Motown related people, on the occasion of their Birthday being remembered.
For example, today is Paul Riser's Birthday, if you can locate a pic.
But, again for example, it is also Estelle Axton's Birthday.
So, pics of notable non-Motown names from the general world of entertainment are also most welcome here, when remembering them on their Birthdays.
Time does not permit me to do all of this myself.......:)
West,you need an assistant and i got just the gal for the job...[typeritten tina typo],this lady can be of value to you no she doesn't take shorthand and is a little slow on longhand,she can type up to ten words per hour but she's cute as a button and having her sit in front at the lobby will distract guys long enough for you to get some work done in the back,i'll have her give you a call..collect of course!!

Quote for the Day:
"I knew Dale Warren from Cass and one day, right out of the blue, he called to tell me that there was a paid position playing trombone at Motown and that I should come down. I knew nothing about Motown. I hated R&B and most other forms of pop music, with the exception of some of the Atlantic stuff that I'd heard my brother and sister played, people like Ruth Brown and Ray Charles, but I reluctantly agreed." - Paul Riser, Soul Source Magazine, 2012.

Happy Birthday: to everyone celebrating Birthdays on September 11th.
Sure Marv, it can be WestGrand, West or WGB.
When I registered as a member, it was the first name that came to mind.
I felt certain it would have been taken but, just while I was thinking of an alternative, I tried it.
I was absolutely astounded to find it was available.
Lowell said he could make it wstgrndblvrd, unless I wished to use the full name. I felt if I did use the full name, it could then be abbreviated in posts.
Of course, I'm acutely aware that really it's a bit of a nerve because, as you might remember, I'm actually based in the UK.
Which seems just about as appropriate as someone from the US using the name 'Abbey Road', 'Penny Lane' or even 'The Cavern Club' on a Beatles forum, based in Liverpool......:rolleyes:
Ah, well it's probably for the best that you only thought about using that name LOL
For a start, it's not such an easy one to shorten, except perhaps to P.D.of E. Which would then make you sound like a Government department.
And had you decided on simply being known as Prince, we'd all be sat here reading your messages, thinking "But how can this be? He's been dead for over three years....??" :confused: LOL
Hey west,you could've called yourself..east,but then we would've thought that you were the last member of the-eastside kids,hehehehehe!!!
Arr&bee, I've always felt more of a Dead End Kid.:)
Which part is now Berry Gordy, Jr. Boulevard?

Quote for the Day:
"Motown came forth with a recording contract for me, a management contract, and a songwriter's contract - which shocked me.
Then I was told "Sylvia, we'll get to you as a singer. But in the meantime we've got all these artists and they have no material. You're going to have to write."
I said "OK". Because I was kind of shy anyway. And so that's what I started doing. I got into it, and the hits started coming." - Sylvia Moy, Detroit Free Press, 2016.

Quote for the Day:
"I haven't had the chance to see it, but the fact that they saw fit to put up that statue is beyond my wildest dreams. Any time that people think enough of you to put up something that is everlasting is only going to make you feel good.
I think that other than Elvis, I am Memphis's favourite son - I'm pretty close to number two.
The thing about Elvis is that he is a lot more popular in death than he was when he was alive - but I would rather that they come while I'm here."
- B. B. King, interview with The Guardian, 2001.
