Talk:Nick Perls

Untitled

Hi Ramseyman and thanks once again for expanding this stub about Nick Perls ! On the last row you state that this article has been 'initiated' by the 1974 assistant of NP. This could be misleading 'cause I started this stub (and I - as a German citicen - hadn't the opportunity to be NP's assistant in 1974 ;-) - you expanded it to the level it now has. Shouldn't it therefore read: '(Content of this article originated [or a better expression] by Nick Perls' 1974 assistant).' ?!?

Just a note: 78 rpm records were not made of vinyl. Vinyl was (and is) used for 33 1/3 rpm recordings. Shenkin (talk) 03:53, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I just want to say someone did a fantastic job of turning this entry into a real article. You've really fleshed out my minimal knowledge of the subject based on several months as Nick's assistant living at the Waverly Place house in 1974. I am very happy with the accuracy and thoroughness of this. Thank you.Ramseyman (talk) 19:19, 5 March 2021 (UTC)

Wow! But please source this!

Wonderful article. However you should find a way to source this because if you don't someone will come one day and delete this wonderful stuff. Something like according to xxx, Nick's assistant in the 70's would be I hope enough! Vb 08:53, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

-I'm not very good with the Wikipedia format, but somehow I managed to get all this material entered here. If it requires sourcing, I am it. There are very few others who know much of the information that I put into this. How ever it is that Wikipedia articles are to be "sourced", it can all be sourced to me. All of this writing is according to me. He said these things to me, and I witnessed these events personally. I lived with him for 3 months in 1974. All the things I did not witness personally were told to me by Nick Perls. If anyone knows how to enter these credits properly in the article, I would be grateful. Also, if anyone knows anything about Yellow Bee Productions, (Nick's juice bar / blues club business that ended in the early 70's), that information could be added, as I didn't know very much about it.

-Hey, I just came back here after 14 years. I see you've fleshed out the information quite a bit. Wonderful. I learned a couple of things.Ramseyman (talk) 18:58, 30 May 2021 (UTC)

Belzona Records

One thing, though - the characterization of Stephen Calt ("another blues collector") strikes me as a bit odd. Nick and Stephen were close friends since high school in Brooklyn. They got into old country blues together. In Yazoo, their respective talents (audio engineering and historical writing) complemented each other perfectly, for a complete product. Anyway, just wanted to say I thought that particular change was disappointing.Ramseyman (talk) 00:01, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
