I'm hoping people intersted in funky soul music can answer this question for me.

    Think Derrick still runs Dericks One Stop Record Store in Kingston. Give him a holler and ask for his wife



    Sugar's in New York, no?



    Hortense and Phyliss Dillon are dead I believe. Marcia is still kickin' it large (she did a drop for my mix tape).

    The Hortense Ellis is on JA Demon label and the UK Tropical label below. My intuition tells me there might be a US Randy's kicking around, too.
