Description

This record is an original pressing from the personal collection of legendary Detroit recording engineer, Ed Wolfrum. (see short bio below ***)

GINO WASHINGTON "Puppet On A String"/"I'm A Coward" on CORREC-TONE #C503. Rare pressing of this record with Sonny Sanders production on both sides. Both sides of this record are in a 'visual' VG condition due to surface markings. "Puppet on a String" plays at a strong VG+ with very little surface noise for a played polystyrene disc. "I'm a Coward" also plays with very little surface noise, but some pops that bring this side's grade down to a weak VG. Black permanent maker writing on "I'm A Coward" label as shown in picture.

Ed thinks he remembers this session as being done at United. David Mielke notes the record as a 1962 production on SoulfulDetroit's 'Golden World Story.' Classic Gino with production that is classic Correc-tone. Two well constructed tracks with unique Sanders arrangements that are somehow unlike much else and quintessetially Gino Washington. Sonny Sanders arranged countless Golden World record sides and went on to work in Chicago at Universal with Carl Davis, cutting classic tracks for Okeh and Brunswick. This record marks the beginning of Sander's lush career.

ED WOLFRUM

This is one of a set of 13 deep Detroit records currently listed up on ebay from the collection of Dr. Edward J. Wolfrum. An engineer who worked consecutively at Motown, Golden World, United Sound, and Theme Productions in the 60's, and his own Audio Graphic Services studios since the early 70's, Edward Wolfrum is an engineer with deep roots into the Detroit recording scene. Wolfrum worked on such disparate records as Funkadelic's first three LPs, Isaac Hayes's "Hot Buttered Soul," the Tomangoes "I Really Love You," the Association's "Along Came Mary," to a large share of Marvin Gaye's Output. Today Wolfrum performs mostly binaural mannequin head recordings of classical/orchestral music, most notably recent recordings in Detroit of the works of 50s/60s DSO conductor, Paul Paray. Wolfrum worked within the close knit family of recording engineers, producers, label owners, and musicians that existed in a time when immense technical and artistic talent filled the city of Detroit. Wolfrum worked most closely with his good friend Russ Terrana and coworkers at United Sound like Danny Dallas and Les Cooley. Responsible for countless huge orchestral records, echo laden drum breaks, and pounding Detroit Soul workouts, Ed Wolfrum looms large in the magic of the Detroit Sound.
