What records from 1979 sound like it? 

I'm not being argumentative for the sake of it but it just doesn't sound anything like what was being done in America in that era to me. 

Sounds more like a pastiche 'northern' record of the kind Ian Levine does. 

And then the lyrics 'cream of the crop' / 'reaching for the top' 'on the real side'....

I'm not convinced...

 

 

 

 

I've played it a few times , disco or soul not sure ,but the name of the band "House Bros " house music was popular 84ish maybe a little bit later , strange 1979 band name ? or am I just edging my bets it's possibly later

Just listened to the village people track, seriously? Almost identical backing track? Gibson brothers, I'm pretty familiar when their stuff, ' oh what a life, probably the closest, but still way, way off the house brothers imho

 

 

 

 

Sorry, you are correct I did infact mension the wrong track, however it's all cut from the same cloth of europop/ dodgy disco nonsense, which in due cause partially morphed to hi-energy.

Just heard the Al Kent mix on the Craig Charles Funk and Soul Show , last tune , sounds earlier more funkier and not so disco etc , possibly 79 ? The recent mix still unsure

Sounds great, Carmy Love has a wonderful voice, she really is a great singer, she kind of reminds me of Sharon Jones. 

But I have to say, they need to do better than this, I guessed where this track was going in the opening 20 seconds, and although there are one, two very nice changes in there, I wasnt suprised  by the time I got to the end of the song, it sounds like a polished work out to my ears.   It's the song writing that’s letting them down, and the tempo is just to predictable.

That’s an honest appraisal, I like the track, but I would not spend money to get it on 45...

Got to agree with most of that Mal. The rhythm was kind of a nod to the early 60's R&b influence. Great voice , wrong song choice.

Looking forward to this arriving sometime soon, I believe it gets released this month:

New single from Carmy Love on Big AC out now digitally, with 45 to follow soon I think. Quality retro soul and what a voice!…

 

Very reminiscent of Sharon Jones, pretty neat to these ears

Arrived today, along with a copy of Mary Wells 'Love letters' and the equally good 'Hands off my baby' that I'd ordered at the same time but had to wait for Cole Williams to come in.

2 great records, and as this thread is showing - plenty more out there!

BBC George Gently soundtrack related which is a bit ironic

Is it the red wine getting the better of my senses ? but it does have a sound of a certain other Mr Levine style of production,,,,

Sounds nothing like a Levine production, has none of his traits in it.

Maybe he's getting better at it , lots of drum rolls etc , just a thought, a bit of everything even a little "Heartache Avenue " no , try a bottle of Montepulciano D'Abruzzo , it sounds very near lol
