The Old Forge (Thursday 14th April 2016)

Although I was out all afternoon my times outside of the car coincided with the rain and I returned empty handed, photographically speaking. Ged was still at work, laying a course of bricks on the outbuilding wall, so I clambered up the steps to get a quick shot of the roofless building.

Lozarhythm Of The Day:
The Fascinations - Girls Are Out To Get You (1966)
Detroit girl group the Fascinations were one of Curtis Mayfield's first signings to his new label, Mayfield, an ABC subsiduary, and became proponents of Chicago soul. They had begun as a gospel group called the Boswell Sisters, later with Martha Reeves among their numbers when they were the Sabre-ettes. She left to join Motown and soon formed the Vandellas.
ABC dropped the Fascinations after a couple of singles but club work continued. There were no more Fascinations records for several years during which Fern Bledsoe from the group worked as a secretary at Motown, where she publicised the label for Dave Godin's Tamla Motown Appreciation Society in the UK.
Girls Are Out To Get You reached no. 92 in the US during early 1967, and four years later was discovered by the Northern Soul clubs in the UK and reached no. 32.  Shirley Walker, Joanne Levell, Bernadine Boswell and Fern Bledsoe had retired the Fascinations in 1968 but did reform the group later on the back of their UK success.
