The Bitter & The Sweet Rare Soul 45 Vinyl Record Sold For More Than $500 On eBay!

R&B Musical Group

“I Won’t Have Any Babies For You”, is a very rare two sided soul recording / flip “POW”, by “The Bitter & The Sweet”, released in Detroit in ’72. The group is out of Detroit’s North End Northern High School, and Detroit’s Mumford High. It featured Adrienne Bolden, Katherine Hamilton, Victor Williams, Kenny Jackson & LeRoi Coleman Jordan.

The tune is written by Floyd Johnson and The Bitter & The Sweet, produced by Floyd Johnson, and arranged by Motown Record’s Funk Brother Lead Guitarist Robert White, the creator and player, of one of the most recognizable opening guitar intro licks in Soul & Rock on The Temptation’s “My Girl” hit.

The Funk Brothers, Motown’s studio house band with Earl Van Dyke on piano, played the musical track, (as they did on every hit song that came out of Motown).

When first released in ’72, radio stations would not give it airplay, saying it was too controversial. The song resurfaced years later and became a dance hall favorite through out The United Kingdom, Japan, Latin America, Australia and now the USA, their home, via digital streaming.

The original, Bitter & The Sweet vinyl 45 record is such a rare piece of music that it’s now in demand by fans and record collectors worldwide, and the vinyl has sold for up to $575 on eBAY.

This is a newspaper clipping of the group from The Michigan Chronicle circa ’72, promoting their first headlining appearence at The Legendary 20 Grand Driftwood Lounge in Detroit where all the Motown and National Stars performed.   Anyone with pictures or movies of the group can contact their agent at InterneTV@HollyHoodUSA.com

HollyHoodUSA.TV: Slyvester Stallone Arrested In Japan For Steroids?

Action star SYLVESTER STALLONE recently ran into trouble with authorities in Japan, after he was found in possession of growth hormones – according to his ex-fiancee JANICE DICKINSON.

 The former supermodel alleges Stallone was taken into custody after being caught with the same muscle-building drug he was convicted for possession of in Australia last February (07). Following that incident, he was formally convicted on charges of importing a prohibited substance in May (07) and was ordered to pay nearly $10,000 (£5,000) in fines and legal costs.

 And Dickinson claims Stallone is still up to no good. She tells the New York Post’s gossip column Page Six, “Stallone was recently arrested in Japan for growth hormones.”

 Dickinson recently revealed on a U.S. TV show that Stallone took the drugs to boost his body during their relationship in the early 1990s, and even claimed he once injected her in the arm when she was asleep – allegations Stallone has vehemently denied.

 But Dickinson is adamant she is telling the truth, and is demanding an apology for him branding her a ‘liar’. And she has threatened to reveal all about the Rambo actor’s past if he refuses to do as she asks. She adds, “If he doesn’t shut his big mouth, I’m going to really tell everybody what he did to me. If he doesn’t retract calling me a liar, I’m going to really talk – and he doesn’t want that, so he’d better make nice…”

 The couple was engaged in the early 1990s, but Stallone ditched her when a DNA test proved he wasn’t the father of her daughter Savannah. A representative for Stallone has declined to comment on Dickinson’s latest allegations.

HollyHoodUSA.TV: Rosie O’Donnell Warns That Britney Will Suffer The Same Faith As Princes Diana

BRITNE
Y SPEARS will suffer the same fate as DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES, if the paparazzi don’t leave her alone, outspoken actress-turned-U.S. TV personality ROSIE O’DONNELL has warned.
In her daily online blog, O’Donnell expresses her fears Spears will die trying to flee the press mob that follows her every move. According to the official reports, Princess Diana was killed in a Paris, France car crash in 1997 as she attempted to get away from the press pack chasing her. (This theory remains unproven, however, as other sources claim the Princess was willfully murdered — and not by paparazzi.)
And O’Donnell admits she has flashbacks to the Diana tragedy everytime she sees Spears being chased by an army of photographers. She writes, “I remember the tunnel as it appeared on the news, lit by headlights, flashlights, red lights. Between the cement tall pillars was a heap of twisted metal. I saw it then, and I can see it now. Diana dead.”
 

And the crazy events of Monday (14Jan08), which saw Spears trying to escape the paparazzi following her home from a Los Angeles courthouse by running into a Sherman Oaks, California church, made O’Donnell fear for the troubled pop star.
 

She adds, “She (Spears) will be trying to get away, but they will chase her, just as they chased her into that church yesterday. There were dozens of them, jostling their way into sanctuary, elbowing past each other, just to creep closer to her.
 

“Not a girl, barely even a woman yet, they chased her. A mob of stalkers for whom no stalking laws have been written.”
Actually, Rosie, there weren’t dozens of paparazzi following Britney into church, only one dozen

HollyHoodUSA.TV: Sir Paul To Lulu, “I Want To Hold Your Hand.”

Paul McCartney Dating Lulu?

Posted 01/15/2008 | 4:20 PM

SIR PAUL McCARTNEY and actress/singer LULU are reportedly dating exclusively after working together on a new album.
 

The former Beatle is co-producing tracks on the beloved British singer’s new album, which she’s recording at the fabled Abbey Road studios in London. And sources tell respected U.S. columnist Liz Smith the couple is “head over heels” in love with each other and now McCartney is making plans to perform with his new girlfriend, who turns 60 this year (08), on his upcoming tour.
 

Smith reveals the couple is desperately trying to keep the romance under wraps until McCartney’s divorce from Heather Mills is finalised, but friends tell her there has been “a lot of staying over at Paul’s place”. Ironically, Lulu, real name Marie McLaughlin Lawrie, will be among the stars performing at a planned tribute to the Beatles at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles this summer (08).
 

Lulu has been single since divorcing stylist John Frieda in 1995. Her first husband was late Bee Gees star Maurice Gibb.  Since his split from Mills in 2006, McCartney has been romantically linked to socialites Steffina Graves and Sabrina Guinness and actress Renee Zellweger. The rocker publicly dismissed the Guinness and Zellweger rumours last year
(07).
