Gus served in The U.S. Army for a number of years, and after his discharge from the military, he lived and performed in Los Angeles. Upon his return to Montgomery, he joined one of the most popular bands in Alabama, King Tutt & The Untouchables. This is where Gus picked up the nick name "Bullet Bad Gus". A DJ by the name of Jack The Playboy started calling him Bullet Bad Gus after hearing him sing. Bullet Bad Gus continued to perform with King Tutt for several years before forming his own band, Bullet Bad Express.

RE: THANKS FOR UNCLE BOBO

daddy nice

nice article about Uncle BoBo... he was WITHOUT A DOUBT the craziest. "When I come to town-I come to TAKE the town", "Sprockey Jockies".. hahah..

I used to record just to listen to him say "Hurricane IVORY" (his way of saying IVAN). I sure miss him..

Thanks,
Steve in MS

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Well thanks, Steve. To tell you the truth, I forgot I even had that "Uncle Bobo" article posted on the website any more, and I couldn't tell you where you read it, it's been so long.

It's funny you should bring up "Uncle Bobo" now, though, during this debate on the Mailbag page about who likes and dislikes the term "southern soul".

If your Daddy B. Nice heard "southern soul" from anyone enough to burn the words into my mind and memory, it was from Uncle Bobo. He just loved saying those words, "southern soul," "southern soul," over and over again, almost with a kind of reverence.

Daddy B. Nice

DBN notes to readers:

Deejay Uncle Bobo (aka producer Senator Jones) is the name of the late, approximately 3-7 am-slotted disc jockey at Jackson, Mississippi's WMPR radio station, who lived by night and slept by day.

ARTIE "BLUES BOY" WHITE HAS PASSED AWAY (APRIL 20, 2013)

Daddy B. Nice

I know there have been unfortunate rumors about this in recent weeks, but this time it can be confirmed. I talked with Artie's wife, Bettie, yesterday -- she told me he'd been put into hospice care. This morning I called again; I didn't talk to Bettie, but the person I spoke with confirmed that Artie had passed.

Bettie has been absolutely heroic, tending and taking care of Artie during his long convalescence over the past few years. She's been at his side almost literally 24/7, even when he's been in the hospital. She deserves our blessings and our praise -- from now on, whenever I hear the phrase "Angel of Mercy," I'm going to think of her.

No info on arrangements yet. When/if I hear more, I'll try to pass it on.

RE: "SOUTHERN SOUL" VS. "SOUL-BLUES" VS. "SOUTHERN SOUL-BLUES" VS. "SOUL MUSIC" VS. ...??

Greetings, Daddy B. Nice --

Drawing: Floyd Taylor

In fact, Kim Cole's unease with the term "southern soul" is rather widespread among artists and others in the industry. Stan Mosley is adamant that he's a soul singer, period ("I grew up in Chicago," he says, "so what does that make me -- northern soul?") -- Floyd Taylor also rejects the term, preferring to use "soul music" to describe what he does. Willie Clayton loathes labels in general, but he'll accept "soul-blues" over the dreaded "southern soul." Millie Jackson staunchly insists that she's an "R&B" singer. To Sweet Angel (among others), it's mostly a matter of marketing: " "For someone to say, "I'm a southern soul artist,? " she points out, "You've just limited yourself off of 200,000 radio stations."

Sir Charles Jones, on the other hand, bills himself as the King of Southern Soul and even takes credit for inventing (or at least popularizing) the term. Kim Cole's former client, T.K. Soul, has also embraced it with open arms. (For the record, Tommy Couch Jr. of Malaco insists that his company originally came up with "southern soul" to market their product to distributors and radio stations that were phobic about the word "blues" and considered "soul" to mean Stax/Muscle Shoals-era "deep soul" -- in other words, nostalgia music, not contemporary music.)


Bobby Rush and Denise LaSalle, meanwhile, still hold out for "blues" to describe their own music, although Denise is something of a latecomer to the "blues" bandwagon, and she also takes credit for introducing the term "soul-blues." Tyrone Davis, on the other hand, strongly resisted being called a "blues" singer; so did Johnnie Taylor, at least most of the time. And on, and on, and on . . .

All of which is why [WARNING: SHAMELESS PLUG TO FOLLOW!!!] I gave the title Southern Soul-Blues to my upcoming book about the music. The book includes profiles of Latimore, Denise LaSalle (who also wrote the Foreword), Bobby Rush, the late J. Blackfoot, Willie Clayton, Sir Charles Jones, Ms. Jody, and Sweet Angel, among others; there's also a comprehensive chapter-length discussion about T.K. Soul's music and lots of cool stuff about songwriting, marketing, the issue of gender/sex/explicxitness in the music, and much more. It's published by U. of Illinois Press; scheduled release date is May 1.

Hope you get a chance to review it, and I hope everyone who reads this will acquire a copy . . .

p.s. Daddy B. Nice's column is quoted and credited liberally throughout the book!

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Hello David,

Good to hear from you, and that the publication of your book is imminent. Congratulations!

So. Just when I thought I had accomplished my best arguments ever for the efficacy of "southern soul," you come along and knock them down like so many straw men. Thanks a lot, man. I guess there is no last word on this subject, is there?

By the way, I've always understood the reluctance of entertainers (especially the ones who have been around a long time) to market themselves solely as Southern Soul performers. How can you blame them when the music industry continues to refuse "southern soul" a niche on the mainstream shelf (Sirius radio, etc.)?

But when entertainers or fans are speaking conversationally about the music of Johnnie Taylor, Sir Charles Jones, Ms. Jody and Vick Allen, they all revert to "southern soul" because it simply, quickly and precisely conveys what they're talking about. I'm not saying the "southern soul" label sells the most records. That is another issue. I'm saying that "southern soul" defines the music we love. You may dress up in someone else's overcoat to attend a funeral, but it's still you inside the coat.

Daddy B. Nice

P.S. I do think "southern soul-blues," the title of your book, is a nice and inclusive compromise.

RE: TRUE SOUL MUSIC

DBN,

As I scroll through your site, I'm realizing that it has grown to become one the the top sources for (Southern) "Soul" Music.

As you may know, I started TSM in March 2012. I never explained what that means to me, mostly because I wasn't quite sure. Now almost 1 year in, I see the fruit of my labor. True Soul Music is , Sam Cooke, Marvin Gaye, Smokey Robinson, Aretha Franklin, etc..... The music and the Artist I manage is "True Soul Music"


A couple of years ago you posted a letter from a lady in Chicago, She said she passed by the stage at the Blues Festival, she heard TK Soul on stage as we were doing a sound check.... She went on to say, she thought "Soul Music" was dead. She didn't know "Soul Music" was still being made!!

That letter inspired me, I want people to know "Soul Music is alive and well, not just "Southern", "Neo" or any of those titles that regionalize this music. It's just good music for the world.

Tre Williams, Omar Cunningham, Vick Allen, Stevie J, Napoleon, Chris Ivy,& Mr Sam, these are artist I teamed up with because they are consistant, hard working, and committed to putting out "good" music everytime. I am so proud to be a part of their success. Look for the 2013 "True Soul Tour" and new albums from Chris Ivy (in studio now) Stevie J, (already with 2 singles COME HERE PARTY & WEEKEND LOVE from his upcoming album UNSTOPPABLE,) and Napoleon.

Bringing "TRUE SOUL MUSIC" to the World!

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Hi Kim,

You worked with the Bad Boy Of Southern Soul for a lot of years, so I know you understand and respect the Southern Soul brand. But I do want to respond to your implication that the term "southern soul" "regionalizes" the music.

This is a perception that has constantly cropped up through the years during my own battle to re-legitimize and re-popularize the term "southern soul."

The broader term "soul music" is one I can accept as a synonym for "southern soul," but it waters down the definition of what Southern Soul IS at this point in time, a sound distinct from many other forms of so-called soul ("soul blues," "neo-soul," "deep-soul"....). The only term that really captures the unique strength and authenticity of the genre is "southern soul."

Here is why people shouldn't be afraid of the "regional" aspect of the Southern Soul term. When the Beatles first formed their band in Liverpool, they were as unaccepted as Jesus in his hometown of Nazareth. The Beatles went to Hamburg, Germany and became local club favorites. When they returned to England, they were billed as the Beatles from Hamburg!

Flash forward. When the Beatles came to the United States, they weren't billed as the Beatles from England. They were billed as the Beatles from Liverpool!

Liverpool--the equivalent of "southern soul"--now that's about as "regional" as you can get, and it certainly didn't deter success. Everyone knew the Beatles were the vanguard of the larger "British Invasion" (the equivalent of the broader term "soul music"), but Liverpool rolled off the tongue and conveyed the unique power of the Beatles' sound.

But we don't have to look even that far. Think of that little white house on that street off Woodward Avenue in Detroit where all the Motown hits rolled off the assembly line. Motown--now that's regional--and Motown didn't deter the success of soul music. It ushered in the most popular era in modern soul music, and it dragged all the other regional sources of soul music with it.


I want everyone to know that when I use the words "southern soul" I'm region-blind. I'm taking for granted that people know that I know Peggy Scott-Adams and Jimmy Lewis recorded "I'm Willing To Be A Friend" in L.A.

I just think it's important to remember that this music wouldn't exist if not for the poor, disenfranchised, culturally-isolated and politically-scarred swathe of the Delta where the music has been nurtured like a lab culture in a petri dish. The vibrant culture of this generally-demeaned region triumphs in its music--just like Liverpool or Motown.

Daddy B. Nice

Daddy B. Nice notes to readers:

Before starting her True Soul Music brand and taking on the artists mentioned above, Kim Cole was T.K. Soul's hardworking and conscientious publicist. In my current review of Mr. Sam's JUST LIKE DAT album I refer to her as "talent-prescient." See Daddy B. Nice's CD Reviews.

LOOKING FOR A SONG

Hi Daddy B. Nice,

I am looking for a song, Show Me What You Working With (not Chuck Roberson) song to Smokey Robinson's Share It, music. Do you know who sings it and where I can get it from?

Sincerely,

Jared

Daddy B. Nice replies:

That's a single that's been knocking around for four or five years now, Jared. It just refuses to die. It's by a young performer named Rude.

Daddy B. Nice

Jared replies:

Thanks. But where I get the song at?

Daddy B. Nice replies:

It's not for sale anywhere. I think he will eventually get it onto an album.

Jared replies:

Alrite! Thanks!!

EVEN DADDY B NICE IS "LOOKING FOR A SONG"

Dear Readers,

The responses from readers to questions about songs in last week's Mailbag has prompted me to throw my own obsessive record search out there for a tune that has the refrain "Do you want my loving, baby?" (And also a lot of "Do you wanna party?")

The song has a mezmerizing, eight-bar guitar hook that recycles over and over again while a streetwise-sounding blues songstress "fronts" lyrics basking in pleasure and all-around hedonism with some laudably-gritty singing. These are some of the seemingly spontaneous words:

"....Come join me
Have a drink or two.
Deejay, turn the music up.
Let me back it up on you.

'Cause I came out
To have a good time.
And guess what, baby.
That's what's on my mind.

I feel like a million dollars, baby.
And we're just gonna party
And have a good time.
Do you want my loving, baby?

Do you want my loving, baby?
Do you want my loving, baby?
So do you want my loving, baby?
Come and get some loving, baby.
Let me show you what Mama can do."

There's also a reference to Jackie Neal and a part that goes:

"Party on.
There's a party going on.
All night long.
There's a party going on.
Party on.
There's a party going on
To the break of dawn."

Does anyone know the artist and title?

"LOOKING FOR A SONG" LETTERS

Hey there Daddy B Nice,

I am a huge fan of southern soul music. I love coming to your site to find the latest in southern soul. I was wondering who remade Still My Love. Ive heard another version of it and also who sings a song with the following words to it--its an upbeat song with the lyrics: "I told ya, I told ya, I told ya!"

Please help! 

Thanks
Nicole 
South Carolina


Daddy B. Nice replies:

Sorry for the delay in writing, Nicole.  "Still My Love" was recorded by Wilson Meadows, and he's also the singer who recorded the song with the lyrics, "I told ya, I told ya, I told ya!" ("Go On And Cry") I don't remember any other Southern Soul artist recording "That's Still My Love."

Daddy B. Nice

AN ASTUTE READER RESPONDS:

Dear Daddy B. Nice,

I know of two other versions:

Monique Ford (Ladies Get Your Own)

Bobby Jonz (Super Club Hits)

"BIG LEG WOMAN"

HELLO DADDY B NICE,  
   
I'M MELISSA FROM SULPHUR, LOUISIANA.  I'M TRYING TO FIND A COPY OF THIS SONG CALLED 'THERE AINT NOTHING IN THE WORLD LIKE A BIG LEG WOMAN'.  I DON'T KNOW WHO MADE IT THOUGH.  IT WAS MADE AROUND 1986.  HAVE YOU HEARD OF IT?  PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

THANKS,
MELISSA

Daddy B. Nice replies

I'm so sorry for delaying in answering your question, Melissa, but there have been dozens if not hundreds of songs about "big-legged women" recorded in Southern Soul over the last 25 years. And the fact you know the song was "made around 1986" makes the question even more difficult. That's a long time ago!  Big Cynthia, whose career started in the 90's, has a song called "There Ain't Nothing Like A Big Woman," that sounds almost exactly like your search, but there is no "leg" in the title. (She also has a song named "Big Leg Woman." I wish I could tell you more, and I hope you have found your song in the meantime.

Daddy B. Nice

***********

"ON THE INSIDE"

Daddy B. Nice,

I'm looking for a song.  "On the inside" is the name of the song. That is, I believe it is. It's about a man who is writing his woman from prison and expressing his love to her. Can you help?

If so, hit me back!

Andrea

Daddy B. Nice replies

Sorry for the delay, Andrea, but I'm stumped. I'll post your question in the Mailbag and see if any readers know of the song you're talking about.

Daddy B. Nice

AN ASTUTE READER RESPONDS:


Daddy B Nice,

This may be the song your writer is talking about.

Listen to Tre' Williams singing "Behind These Bars" on YouTube.

"DON'T BLAME ME" 

Hey Daddy

I am looking for a song or cd by miz b  the title is don't blame me , do you have it, or know where I can get it?

Thanks

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Miz. B still hasn't distributed this single to sellers, Charlie. The best I can tell you is to keep watching CD Baby's website.  In the meantime, if you can put up with the poor audio, you can find Miz. B singing "Don't Blame Me" live onstage in Memphis (the second song of the two-song set) on YouTube.

BAD AZZ YELLA BITCH!!!!!!!

"THE TWIST"

Dbn

Where can I buy jacquel the twists mp3 ?

Arneice

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Sometimes I think I've forgotten the "The Twist" by Jacquel was on a Team Airplay All-Stars album or some other obscure compilation, and I get this question all the time. But if I had to tell you something definitive today, I'd say that it's never been distributed. And if you look up "Jacquel" in Daddy B. Nice's Comprehensive Index," you'll find contemporaneous "sample/buy" links for Jacquel's "Too Much Lickin" but not for Jacquel's "The Twist." If there had been a seller when "The Twist" was first played on the radio, I would have put in a link.

Jacquel's version is much better, by the way, than the Team Airplay rap version available on YouTube.

Daddy B. Nice

Daddy B Nice....Random Thoughts For Readers:

I started dancing as I listened to Jacquel's "The Twist" just now--it's a good song, and it's held up well--and when I remembered that when I originally learned to dance The Twist (Chubby Checker's "The Twist"), you were supposed to imagine running a towel across your rear end, I really started to "move with the motion".

Hey! I thought to myself. This is where the "Booty Roll" got its start.

RE: MAGIC SLIM DIES

Hi, Daddy B. Nice,

Unfortunately I'm falling behind on spotlighting musicians who have recently passed away. There have been several in the last few weeks. Let's start with this Chicago bluesman.

Song of the Day: 25-February-2013

Get Your Business Straight...Magic Slim & The Teardrops [2002]

Morris Holt was born in Mississippi. He followed Muddy Waters and Howling Wolf to Chicago. The guitarist was given his nickname of Magic Slim by his mentor, Magic Sam. Interestingly, Magic Slim moved to Lincoln, Nebraska in 1994 and played regularly there. "Get Your Business Straight" is a track off his 2002 release on Blind Pig Records, "Blue Magic". Magic Slim passed away last Thursday in Philadelphia after surgery for a bleeding ulcer. He was 75.

RE: ARTICLE ON DADDY B. NICE IN JACKSON FREE PRESS

ALSO RE: BOOGIE VS. DEANNA 'FEUD'

Daddy B!

Hey, my brother, I saw the article on you, Apostle of Southern Soul in the Jackson Free Press. Dude, that's great. And after all this time we get to see your mug, as you say about everyone! LOL!

I wrote you last year asking you about the bad blood between Boogie and Dylann DeAnna, and I never got a reply. It was well known among artists and deejays back in the day that you three guys were a clique. Then came the big-blow-up between DeAnna and Boogie. Then just last month the Australians and record label were going at it. Any comment now on these feuds in Southern Soul music?

DJ ANONYMOUS

Daddy B. Nice replies:

Thanks for the feedback on the Jackson story. You appear to be in a lighter mood, DJ "A," and you're not the only one who's asked me about this, so I'll just say this about the "feuds." I love music, I hate politics; I comment on the former, I avoid the latter.
Dylann DeAnna (of CDS and Blues Critic) and Jerry Mason (of the Boogie Report and WMPR) and your Daddy B. Nice were never a clique, although it may have seemed that way to some of you. The only kernel of truth in that assumption is that all three of us were excited about Southern Soul music and it was easy to believe we all thought along the same lines.

(I thought they loved every single song that I loved and that each of them had a mainline connection into my brain. I was SHOCKED to find out they didn't.)

Seriously, what's happened is that we've all grown up along with the music. We've become the bigger entities and personalities we were destined to be, and with that maturation has come the realization that we have different tastes and different agendas, but in our own unique ways we're all still doing what we do to further Southern Soul music, and that's what counts.

Daddy B. Nice

P.S. When I was doing the interview, I cited Jerry and Dylann and Funky Larry Jones as fellow-travelers in promoting Southern Soul. (I was thinking especially of the critical early 2000's, when the old stars were dying and the young guns were obscure unknowns, and the whole scene could have disappeared in a cloud of smoke.) But the editors chose not to run that.
