Peter A Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Never seen or heard it. I read somewhere that Bill Davis was a pianoplayer from Detroit who played with Howard McGhee during the 40's. Would he be the same Bill Davis who played piano on Kenny Burrel's Soul Call?

clifford_thornton Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 I've never seen/heard of anything on "Sue." Strange... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
michel1969 Posted September 13, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 I think that it IS the Bill Davis from Detroit area that played with Howard Mc Ghee, because Bob Setlik from Carcityrecords on Detroit confirmed that to me. And Sue was a Detroit label. This record shows a beautiful cheese cake cover with a girl on the telephone, lying on a bed, and was the first issued by Sue on 1958. Sue was the label of Ray Bryant, Jimmy Mc Griff zmong other (more r'n'b soul oriented. Well it seems that i've answered to my own question.... But i'd like te get one copy of this one !!!!!!

On the pricey side, but Dusty Groove does have this. I actually nearly picked it up but decided I had bought enough today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Beat Steve Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 FWIW, Ike & Tina Turner did some stuff on Sue in the early 60s before the "River Deep Mountain High" etc. smash hits period. That alone (plus Jimmy McGriff and Ray Bryant) puts Sue firmly on the map of collectible labels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Also Hank Jacobs, who made a good organ album ("So far away"), the Soul Sisters, Joe Thomas & Bill Elliott, some decent Baby Washington, and a GREAT Ernestine Anderson album, which I just HAD to play twice on the trot when I first got it - something I never do. Lots of Sue stuff was reissued on Collectables; some has come out on Ace. I didn't know Sue was a Detroit label. Its addresses in the fifties were 125 St, NY and Riverside Drive, NY.

Christiern Posted August 18, 2008 Report Share Posted August 18, 2008 Sue was a NY label—I visited their office once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Weiss Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Barry Harris just played me this record today. I am astonished at how good it is. His playing and arrangements are something else. It's hard to imagine how playing of this caliber and originality has remained so obscure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazztrain Posted May 22, 2013 Report Share Posted May 22, 2013 Here's a picture of the cover: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katharsis Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 The Vinyl section may not be the right place, but you can listen to snippets of the music on different online-music-platforms. Sounded interesting indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
