Some of you may have been wondering where I've been. After rejoining the record collectors arena and six months of research I have finally come back to my normal life.

Volume 3 once again focuses on female artists from the greater Los Angeles area back in the day and a few cruisin' memories. Hopefully you will find a new gem or two to add to your musical library.

MELLO's GOT YOU COVERED

First a big "Thank You" goes out to RossyBoy for the awesome cover & title for my comp.

Yes, an old vato that has you covered in more ways than one LOL!. I don't mean to be repetitive but once again these versions are not by the original artists. I suspect some of these too may surprise as not being the original artists who sang these songs. I also continue to hope that I'm able to deliver some new tunes to you from my selection. I'll only know if you let me know.

  As a Chicagoan, I pass on a bit of info on track # 5. Her name may imply that she is of Japanese heritage but actually she was born Rosemarie Timotea Aurro in Chicago, & was the product of an Italian-American family that owned a local restaurant. She is also considered by many to be the first so-called blue-eyed soul singer of the 60's.

02.Darling, Forever - The Four Chevelles
03.I Who Have Nothing - Little Ray (Ramon Jimenez)
04.I'm Doing Fine Now - The Three Degrees
05.It'll Never Be Over For Me - Timi Yuro
06.Just Another Guy - The O'Jays
07.Love Is Here - The Dramatics
08.Love Makes The World Go Round - Papa's Results
09.Love On A Two Way Street - The Moments

Familia Souldiez Vol 9 - Poor Boy's Prayers

Late Spring: must be time for the familia to get together for that twice-yearly rendezvous! We toss around some tunes and try to find only the finest, the rarest and the firmest to share with our buddies. In time-honored tradition, I elect myself as the bonus-maker - getting to choose an extra opening track to set the mood. The theme this time out is "Poor Boy's Prayers" and the G MAN has out-done himself in the cover stakes in preparing the arte for this one. All the Lowriders will know Santo & Johnny's "Sleepwalk", released in 1959.  What many don't know is that the Farina brothers also wrote lyrics for that classic instrumental, although they never recorded a singing version themselves. But Betsy Brye did issue a version of "Sleepwalk" with lyrics that year. Trust our Sister DustyRose to come up with that gem ! Hope this latest volume keeps up the standards of yesteryear. Please let us know ! RossyBoy
