    We The People "My Brother The Man"...two different versions?

    Are there two different pressings of We The People "My Brother, The Man" on Hotline with different guitar solos? This version the singer says "all right" before the solo and it's more intense. This version has no "all right" before the solo and the solo is more reserved and a bit more...

    Record finds of 2023

    From what I understand that is considered the "best" of the various B-sides to the single. I didn't pick it out specifically, it was just the copy that happened to be for sale in front of me at the time.

    Different Fenton Labels

    The majority of Fenton 45's were pressed at American Record Pressing in Owosso, MIchigan. There were one or two exceptions among the first releases but almost all of the rest were done at ARP. They did not use "multiple plants" hardly at all. The block print design on the Ken Rank record was...

    Clueless ebay buyers

    The rumors I have heard is that there are a handful of rather wealthy people who have decided to collect garage records so they put down astronomically high bids to make sure they win, even if it's at an inflated price. Regular collectors make futile efforts to win and only succeed in making the...

    Various Fenton Records - The Michigan Legend

    I know the Fenton catalog pretty well...and there is a lot of tepid and unexciting filler on those comps. The one Fenton no one seems to have or has ever posted a clip of is The Pepettes "Pepette Rock". That's supposed to be an all girl group going a surf instro. I heard it many years go but...

    Happy Snaps

    That card might go with the Malibus that recorded on Quill, as they were from Paw Paw, Michigan which is on the same side of the state as Grand Rapids. I talked to a band guy many many years ago who mentioned the Quill record and said "we did another one" but he couldn't come up with a copy of...

    THE SPIDERS

    "Changing Arranging" most likely came from a bootleg CD titled "Pretties For You Demos". I downloaded it off of a torrent site years ago and a Google search didn't turn up any places where it currently available, unfortunately.

    UNKNOWN NEW ORLEANS GARAGE 45 JIM JOY JAZZTOWN PRODUCTION (DR. SPEC'S) INFERNO 102 THE REAL BOBBY RE

    Bobby Reno was a New Orleans DJ. I got to know him fairly well when I lived down there and that is definitely HIM on that record as I recognize the voice. Mac Rebbenack (AKA Dr. John) put out a record using the name Bobby Reno & The Infurnos (I Been Hoo-dood on Pitassy) so perhaps he was trying...

    From

    I have known about this record for years and that a copy existed in a private collection, but the owner never permitted me to hear it, so nice to see the re-ish finally.
