Subject: Looking for Chad Allen/Reflections/Expressions/GH/Deverons/Brother memorabilia

Greetings,

Thanks to Scott Relf (soulshack45@hotmail.com) for showing me where to find this forum and all the great reports he's posted. Scott has really gone to a lot of effort to help the Clubhouse out and Gary and Burton both appreciate all he's done.

I am the "Jeff from the Sound Exchange" that Burton refers to in a number of KY58 Clubhouse shows, I get to find him some of the rarities he plays on-air and also get the opportunity to spend time with him on a regular basis, and you couldn't ask for a nicer, more gracious guy. No one cares more than Burton.

The main reason I am here though is not to brag but to mention that I am always looking for memorabilia from the Winnipeg/Canadian music scene to display in my music store in Winnipeg (557 Portage Ave, if you ever visit town). I will pay cash or in some cases trade items for other items if this is acceptable. I never sell my memorabilia, I think its a little hypocritical to have a store here and not pay tribute to musicians of this calibre who have done so much for our community, and really could you ask for better ambassadors?

Wether it be posters, photo's, ticket stubs, old Garnet Amp's gear or just general items of interest I'd love to hear about it. Speaking of Garnet, try visiting http://www.garnetamps.com for more info on Gar Gilles and his legendary contribution to the Guess Who and BTO sound.

There are many bands and players who we have a personal interest in, some you certainly know and others you may have never heard before but should be aware of. Here is a very partial list.

Chad Allen and the Expressions
Chad Allen and the Reflections
The Guess Who
The Deverons
Brother
Mood Jga Jga
The Quid
The Mongrels
Sugar & Spice
Brave Belt
Bachman Turner Overdrive (BTO)
The Squires (Neil Young)
Logan Avenue Comfort Station (Kurt Winter)
Les Q.
Anything on Franklin Records and to some extent Eagle Records.

Non-Winnipeg interests:

Early Ronnie Hawkins
David Clayton Thomas and the Shay
The Staccato's (Les Emmerson)
The Ugly Ducklings
Anything on Yorkville Records

I could go on but you get the idea, many of these bands Winnipeg bands swapped players with the GH at one point or another.

Feel free to e-mail me if you want to share some goodies or just want to brag about something neat you have in your collection.

Thanks,

~Jeff Bishop
