SOLVED


* What was the connection between Crewe-Slay (East Coast songwriters and producers) and Bobby McDowell on Supreme Records, a Memphis label?



*What was the connection between Crosley Music (Crewe-Slay publishing company) and Benny England/Benny Ingram on Snap and Zenith?


*From Music Master Oldies , this question about Rickie Page and George Motola :
I'd really appreciate it if someone could help me explain something. The story I just wrote was drawn from several sources, and all of them seem quite reliable. Even so, there's a problem with the time-line, and it's a serious one. If June met George for the first time in 1956, how did she manage to have daughters who were 15, 14 and 12 in 1964, just eight years later? Did June actually meet George earlier? Was June married to someone else before she met George, which means these were not his children? June was born in 1929, which means that, if my facts are correct, she met George when she was 27. June must have given birth to her oldest daughter in 1949, when she was only 20 years old. There's something missing here, but I just don't know what it could be. Oh, and if anyone has a better photo of June or George to share, that would be lovely. For some reason, there weren't very many photos of them published anywhere!

  1. There's an entry for the Pico discography (Pico 523) identifying it as an unknown title by Big Jim Wynn. Pico 523 is "I Must Forget About You" b/w "Gonna Take A Chance" by The Real McCoys. Group featured George Holmes of the Ink Spots and was released in 1960. There is a record I have by Big Jim Wynn on label Great 101 that was supposedly re-released on a Pico 523 but I haven't found it. I do have the Real McCoys if you'd like a label scan.
