    cool poster, but isn't having a bunch of 45 labels like 'Attention NERDS'?

    I thought Dig was a Florida thing...

    nah, most people around here think memphis soul is just Otis and Shaft, just some labels to show the vastness of memphis soul....Dig was distributed by Stax...so I included it.

    "Get High!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"



    is there anything worthwhile on 'J'ace' besides that?

    Weis was based in Chicago, but there is some clasic Memphis soul on that label, so I included it also.

    Hell no! 45 labels are great art/visuals in and of themselves. Very nice flyer.

    what is the 45 on Active in your photo? Memphis Mustangs? wondering what else came out on the label.

    spoken like a true 45 collector!

    75% of all dj night flyers I see laying around in Detroit have 'sexy' bikini chicks on 'em - seemingly cribbed directly from Maxim covers & Victoria's Secrets.

    that strategy must successfully bring in a crowd of freespending horny choads.

    What about a night where the two (45 collectors who are also free spending horny choads) intersect? Sexy bikini girls holding raers???

    No, let's save that for when we die and go to heaven - I spoke to the G about it, it's supposed to be a surprise...

    There are quite a few on that label.

    Flyer looks ill, I'll bet the show will be ill as well

    thanks! it took a little while, erasing the band and song info off of them...

    Active had a few(that I know, there are probably some I have never heard)cool sides...I used my copy of First Company "Same Ole Thing" for the flyer...one of the best I have heard on the label is The Sweet and Innocent "I dont know what your full of" killer acoustic soul....
