2 45's missing from the complete discography:
Cadet Concept 7007: Teach Me How To Fly / Paper Castle
Cadet Concept 7027: Teach Me How To Fly / Stormy Monday Blues

Also Sidney Barnes is currently doing well performing globally and with George Clinton in Parliament / Funkadlic.
Sid was in The Serenaders with George Kerr at Motown and also staff writers at Motown's New York office.
Sid then went to become a staff writer at Sue Records with JJ Jackson before teaming up with Clinton at Golden World. It was Andre Williams who took Barnes to Chess and Rotary. Sid doesn't appear on Hey Love LP.
