DJZigZag sez, "THIS IS GONNA BE A HUGE WAGRadio HIT!!" SOON TO BE FEATURED on the ALL-NU GROOVIN' BLUE 12 - 12 Ms. FAITH EVANS and "TEARS OF JOY" - - OH, SO SOULFUL ! ! !

TRE WILLIAMS IS THE FEATURED VOCALIST with THE REVELATIONS and THIS AMATEUR VIDEO HAS REMARKABLY GOOD SOUND FOR A PICK-UP MIC . . . June 2012

*** ARTWORK FEATURES THE ORIGINAL HOME OF BILL & BOB'S RECORD SHOP - THE SAM KEE BLDG. - 10 WEST PENDER STREET in VANCOUVER, BC CANADA's CHINATOWN (where the EAST END begins) . . .

This original painting by Vancouver, Canada artist Carolyn Jia depicts the Sam Kee Building at the corner of Pender and Carrall streets in VanCity's Chinatown.
The bottom part of the narrowest building in the world (Ripley's Believe It Or Not) is divided by a staircase which leads to a 'room' which runs the full length of the top of the structure.  To the right of those stairs as our view shows was the home of Bill & Bob's Record Shop owned by Bill Reiter (aka DJZigZag) and Bobby "Pea Dow Cha Siu Wat Dan Faun" Garrison.
It was the second record store in VanCity to sell only New World African Music.  Heart and Soul Record Store on Commercial Drive (owner: Russell Mar) was the first.  Bill & Bob's operated in the late sixties for two and a half years.

To buy an inkjet print, framed 12" x 16" of "Narrow Chinatown" by Carolyn Jia go to this site . .

MASH UP A HANK BALLARD COIFFURED BROTHA WITH A FILM MAKER THAT OBVIOUSLY IS A FAN OF THE BRIT T.V. SERIES "MISFITS" and YOU GET THIS "ADORN" video featuring MIGUEL . .

A FIXATION ASSOCIATED WITH WHITE TILED BATHROOM WALLS AND FETISHLY 'TIED-UP' NET STOCKING FACED WOMEN CAN GET A GUY IN TROUBLE.  
DJZigZag sez HE SPEAKS WITH AUTHORITY ON THIS MATTER.  THIS BEGS THE QUESTION - WHAT DO OUR MAIN MAN & MIGUEL GET UP TO WHEN THEY LEAVE THEIR PERSPECTIVE STUDIOS??
MIGUEL's "ADORN" IS ONE OF THE HUGE GROOVIN' BLUE HITS FROM THE SUMMER/AUTUMN and finally HERE IS THE VIDEO (already viewed by almost eleven million peeps).

HERE'S THAT CUTE MO-FO ROMAIN VIRGO WITH THE REGGAE COVER VERSION OF ADELE'S "DON'T YOU REMEMBER"

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE THE GENIUS IN 1961 - HERE HE IS IN ANTILLES SMOKIN' UP DA JOINT. BROTHER RAY ! THE MAIN MAN ! ! !

IT'S 1967 . . . GROOVIN' BLUE IS BEING BROADCAST ON CKLG-FM IN VANCOUVER, B.C. CANADA AND IN LONDON THE MIGHTILY MIGHTY SOULFUL JR. WALKER & THE ALL-STARS HAVE THE RAM JAM CLUB MOVIN' AND BELIEVEIN' ! ! !

IT'S INTERESTING TO SAY THE LEAST THAT THE BLACK BRITISH AUDIENCE REMAINS SO STILL DURING THIS PERFORMANCE.  RESTRAINED TO SAY THE LEAST.  BUT THEN AT THE END THEY MANAGE TO RAISE A LITTLE DUST BUT YOU CAN SEE THAT THEY APPRECIATE IT ON A MUCH LESS VISCERAL LEVEL THAN A NEW WORLD AFRICAN AMERICAN AUDIENCE.

WE'RE ALSO SAYIN' A BIG "COME STAI" TO LEGENDARY TENOR MAN FREDDIE CAROTENUTO.  SAM BUTERA WAS DA CARR-MAN'S MUSICAL INSPIRATION ! !  
A REAL VAN EAST MUSICAL HERO.

VANCOUVER B.C. SUN NEWSPAPER SCRIBE-EXTRAORDINAIRE - Mr. JOHN MACKIE SENT WAGRadio THIS AD FROM THE 1960'S of The SMILIN' BUDDHA WHEN NEW WORLD AFRICAN MUSIC ACTS RULED ! !

YA GOTTA WONDER WHO WAS IN THE HOUSE BAND "THE KINGSMEN"?  
WAS IT DOUG CUTHBERT on DRUMS?  HENRY YOUNG on GEETAR?  LARRY VOLEN on TENOR SAX?  And I KNOW THAT Mr. MACKIE FEELS IT'S THE SEATTLE BAND BUT I HAVE A GUT FEELING THESE "KINGSMEN" were LOCAL VANCITY MUSICIANS. . . and MOSTLY EAST ENDERS.  TRUTH TO FOLLOW?
AND LOOKAHERE ! !  THE WONDERFUL TEDDY FELTON - THE M.C. THAT DEFINED JIVE TALKIN' AND GOOD-LOOKIN'.  TEDDY WOULD SAY STUFF LIKE, "We gonna take a break and lissin' to J.B.  That's not James Brown, that's the jukebox" and "It's time for a coke and a smoke and then we'll be  back".  IT WAS Mr. T. FELTON WHO INTRODUCED THE MIC-CHECK PHRASE, "Tastin'.  Tastin'" INSTEAD OF, "Testing, testing" to the musicians of VanCity.    
DJZigZag CLAIMS THAT EVEN THOUGH HIS PALS WERE IN THE HOUSE BAND  . . . HE WAS AFFEARED OF GOIN' TO THE GIT-DOWN WHALIN' SMILIN' BUDDHA.
ANYBODY KNOW HOW THE PLACE GOT IT'S NAME?
THANK YOU JOHN MACKIE FOR SUCH A GREAT GIFT.
