Jr. Walker and the Allstars came to the Ellington Fellowship Playhouse August 28th, 1992, I MC'd the show! I got Jr. to sign my Shotgun lp! I have in my collection a copy of every lp Jr. Walker ever made! Here is Jr. Walker before he signed and was picked up by Motown! Here is the rare "Willie's Blues" on Harvey Records! (click play)
Barbara Mason came to the "Sportsmans Club" in 1975! I got her to sign my record! (click play)

I recently visited Mr. Joseph Bussard at his home in Frederick, Md. Joe has a very, very large collection of 78rpm records! You might have seen his Program/Feature "Desperate Mans Blues" on Starz Entertainment Network!

In addition to my 330+ radios and phonographs I have collected over the years, here are a few rare records from my record collection. Believe it or not, "LaLa Means I Love You" was not the first record by the Delfonics! Before they made it big, they had this local hit, "He Don't Really Love You!" (click play)
Also "You've been Untrue" at around the same time. (click play)
Susan Waters Cain, DHS-'69, was married to one of the Delfonics for a while, Randy Cain! Randy passed away April 9th, 2009.
Here is a very rare mis-print! A few of these got to the stores before they were pulled and corrected! Notice the name of the artist on the "Shotgun" 45!! |
