Description

Houston Outlaws, W-194 on the Westbound label:

Second only to Motown in terms of releases and hits in 60s and 70s Detroit, Westbound and its sister label Eastbound hit on a successful formula of cutting rhythm tracks at Willie Mitchell’s studios in Memphis, while adding strings and backing vocals in Detroit. This was mainly employed on the Detroit Emeralds and Denise LaSalle; other hit acts like Funkadelic and the Fantastic Four were recorded in Detroit as were the many smaller acts. With Motown’s acquisition and decommissioning of the Golden World stable of labels in 1967 and the demise of indies like Thelma and MAH’s, there was a lot of talent in the city with few recording outlets. It was in fact one of the old school Detroit soul producers, Mike Hanks, who persuaded record distributor Armen Boladian to try his hand with a new label.

It's no fun Being Alone/I Just Got to be Loving You

Some fine lines on vinyl, nothing major, play tested, little crackling here and there, but overall very good

White label on one side 'For demonstration Only Not For Sale' other wise labels clean

 

Buyer pays $4 shipping anywhere in North America . Have tons of old records to list, from old Elvis promos from the 50s to punk to classical lps....but it's slow going!
