Two Northern Soul sides but it was 'That's The Day My Heart Stood Still' that was the play side back in the day with the flip being played in more recent years by Mark 'Butch' Dobson. It was bootlegged around 1976 on a black (not yellow) label. This was a big spin at Wigan Casino but got bootlegged pretty quickly which killed it as DJ's dropped records from playlists once they were bootlegged.
A Jobette west coast production written by Willie Hutch & Hal Davis.
Magnum was an L.A. label founded by radio DJ Hunter Hancock and Roger Davenport who did the string arrangement on 'What Would You're Daddy Say' for The Earls Inc. on Tee-Ti in 1971. (A really nice mellow group soul harmony track ... which I've included at the end of this post).
There's only 3 known/listed 45s by Ollie Jackson, the other 2 both released on Pepper in 67 and 68. I can find no info about Otis Jackson.
Pepper was a Memphis label owned by Morris Pepper. It appears that there was a batch of releases in 800-900 series 1958-60 and then a gap until 1967-69 where all release are in 400 series.
There is an interesting article on Pepper Studios here.
