I had the pleasure to interview Uncle Harve's son as well as Jack Blanchard about Mida. Johnny Lomelo was the owner of the King O Hearts Club, he financed the sessions for Donel Austin and Jack Blanchard, if I remember correctly. He was an otherwise dubious character. Mida stood for "Miami, Dade".
ReplyDeleteThe results of the interviews have been published in American Music Magazine as an article about Uncle Harve and Mida Records.
