Some of these guys look familiar to me, but I am racking my brain! When I first saw the picture, I was thinking how much the 2nd guy looks like Jackie Jackson!!! Uncanny, especially the cheekbones. Medusa, yes he favors Sherrick a little bit too.

Hi to all!

I'm also very wondering WHO are these guys, because some of they resulted to me some "familiar"! (I have had TONS of singles!)

Archie Bell & The Blue Notes?
Harold Melvin & The Drells?
Smokey Robinson & The Pips?
Gladys Knight & The Miracles?

Seriously now, some face i related with New York City or The Joneses.
Medusa, I believe Younghearts is a trio.

Somebody can response to this GREAT MYSTERY?

Peace & Soul Food

Hello Spyder:

Sylvester Potts from the Contours told Curtis Woodson the Motown Photographer who shot photo #2 that it was Joe Pepp and his Fabulous Peps who some of them later became Undisputed Truth.

It sure looks like the same guys just a few years older and different haircuts. :-)

I got my info at the signing of Curtis Woodson book last night in Detroit.

Okay Soulaholic!!!! I'm sending the police out after you!! That was cruel and unusual punishment!!:-) I had one small clue when I saw "smiling faces", but then I said "but the Undisputed Truth had more people and they women in the group." I was like, "something is not right here!" Oh well, I don't feel too bad, as I wasn't the only one, but leave it to that ELI GUY:-):-) So this group is the Peps(Joe Harris)? I have never heard of them, what songs did they sing as this group?? Yeah, I know you were sitting back and laughing at us trying to guess this;):-):-):-):-)

Charise:

yes the clue was smiling faces.

Joe Harris is correct.

But, isn't there always a but !

Spyder thinks not and he may be right, It was some times ago and memories do get hazy. Still I spoke with Sylvester and that's how he remembers it.

Curtis had just come to Motown and was waiting and heard this group warming up and he shot one photo only and did not learn who the group was till 40 years later. That was when he was putting his fabulous book together - Memories of The 1962 Motown Revue - I highly recommend the book.

I bought 2 special Limited Edition produced for the Ellington-White Project that Curtis E. Woodson gave a lecture and slideshow at last night. His stories and the behind the scene things that happened where great.

Sylvester Potts - Contours
Bobby Rodgers - Miracles
Annette Sterling Beard - Vandellas
Rosalind Ashford - Vandellas

Where all there and I got them to autograph the book.

I am going to donate the 2nd Limited Edition signed book to Soulful Detroit to be used as an auction fund raiser to help with the sight.

There are 60 pages of never before seen photos from the Motown Revue. I have poured over my copy several times already.

Spyder: lol

You must have forgotten what you looked like with a DA hairstyle back then or ???

Think about it, how hard is it to remember how your parents looked when they where young. I look at photo's of them back in the day when I was a kid and I can't get over how young they looked!

So don't even feel bad one bit about 40 years ago Oh my lordy 40 years ago !!! how someone looked back then.

Okay I have seen two names on the net related to Joe Harris, I couldn't find anything for Preps, so that info is wrong, then I surfed for Peps & I see many songs. I learn something new on SD everyday!!!!!!!

Spyder,
As I told you Wednesday night, I love your CD...what's happening with it? Do you have a label, who's distributing? Do you have more songs to add to it? Just curious. Are going to be appearing anywhere around here any time soon??
Actually, I think you and Clay should take your show on the road...a little comedy never hurt anyone!!!

HI MILLIE, AND THANK YOU, I'M GLAD YOU LIKE THE CD. TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION, I'VE BEEN SELLING IT OUT OF THE TRUNK OF MY CAR FOR THE PAST COUPLE OF YEARS. IT WAS ON MY LABEL, "WEB BROTHERS PRODUCTIONS" BEING THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO PROMOTE IT PROPERLY NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT IT ALTHOUGH SONG NUMBER TWO "YOU KEEP ME WONDERIN" WENT TO NUMBER 7 ON THE STEPPERS LIST IN THE NITE-LIFE RECORD POOL MAGAZINE OUT OF CHICAGO. I DO HAVE MORE SONGS TO ADD TO IT, BUT RIGHT NOW I'M MIXING "MY SPYDER TURNER LIVE" CD, GETTING IT READY. CLAY AND I WILL BE GETTING TOGETHER THIS EVENING TO DISCUSS IT ,SOOOOO, UM, WE GOT OUR FIRST HIT TOGETHER SO WHATCHA THINK. OH BY THE WAY, THAT FOUR SONG EP IS ON MY WEBSITE.
MY NEXT SHOW IS ON AUGUST 20TH AT THE WOODWARD DREAM CRUISE ON 12 MILE BETWEEN GREENFIELD AND WOODWARD. MY COMPANY IS PROVIDING A SHUTTLE BUS FROM A PARKING LOCATION (TO BE POSTED ON MY SITE AND HERE IN THE FORUM ) TO THE STAGE SOON AND ALL SDF MEMBERS ARE WELCOME TO RIDE, WON'T COST YOU NOTHING. I'LL TELL CLAY WHAT YOU SAID WHEN I SEE HIM, HE'S GOING TO LHAO

Hi Lucy: It's good to see you, thank you very much :-)

Manny: Yes, I guess that the secret's out now! Hey, maybe we can get out on the road & sing some of those Philly songs. I always wished that I could sing like Teddy. Of course, we'll have to get "Mr Electronic" in on it. Of course, you do realize that we'll have to get a pitch corrector & Pro Tools.....I can't sing a lick. Paulie will be our bodyguard. He'll protect us when the crowd starts throwing eggs at me :-)

Bobby: You have a pretty good eye there. My ignorance of 60s Soul music is very telling here. I wouldn't have guessed that one in a million years. By the way, Manny & I may go on the road to sing Philly Soul. We're gonna be like The Purifys. I need you to contact Paulie, with my lousy voice, we're really gonna need him :-)

Soulie: That was pure torture. Everytime, I thought I had a hint, I couldn't figure it out. Re Re is right....that was simply cruel :-)

Juice, now we have to come up with something for him, but I doubt that I could, because they know everyone and anyone on this site!!! I was about to ask how you knew my last name, but you are one letter short!!!!! I used to think that they were related to me when I saw the name on the record, when I was little, but then I noticed a letter missing. (regarding James & Bobby Purify):-):-):-)
