Does anyone know who is the only surviving member of the original Temptations who celebrates his 69th birthday tomorrow.

Not sure Moody Blues' Nights in White Satin appropriate for a soul show, but I will ask DJ Mike to include on his Juke Box Show on Sunday mornings (10am) and dedicate to you.



More old videos, The Trammps with their Northern Soul smash before it charted

Hi again Max



I watched a film the other evening all about the inception of the "Chess" record label. It was very interesting and I'd recommend it if anyone gets the chance to watch it. It reminded me of an EP (that's giving my age away) I had bought for me many years ago by an old boyfriend. Included in the tracks was Mitty Collier singing "I had a talk with my man last night". I've tried listening to it on utube, but the sound was down and couldn't hear a thing. I'd almost forgotten what a lovely song it was and would be most grateful if you could play it for me at some time.



Many thanks in advance.



Kind regards.



Jean
