So which northern record (ancient or modern) do you think has the best Horn Section, full on everything but the kitchen sink kind of Horn Section.

If you can attach a soundfile or refosoul link go ahead.

I think The Charisma Band - Ain't nothing like your love, is way up there (and the strings are excellent as well)

Footnote, to me sen:

As soon as I get sick and tired of oldies, hearing the same old fookin records, I get a blast of some thing like Jerry Cook's version of : I hurt on the other side" and it makes me want to smother my self in oldies and beautifully suffocate in that tremendous energy and passion that is soul!

It's a great day today, St George's day, I am a proud Englishman, the sun is shining and our lass fancied a shag before going to work, which is nice. :thumbsup:

Maurice Williams - Being without you, has a great break.

Little Ritchie - Just Another Heartache overall for me though.

I'm a fan of slightly rubbish horn playing. Sometimes just behind the beat or out of unison.

A particular record springs to mind - "Girl Watcher" by The O'Kaysions.

Curtis Mayfield takes some beatin' ... Move on up towards your destination, though you may find, from time to time, complications ... (Give it to me horns) :lol:

A good shout not rubbish subtle and slightly muted maybe .

For me Thumb a ride and that sax break never fails to hit the spot .

Having just listened to it two minutes ago, I've decided it's 'Who you gonna love' by The Accents. Mind you, before that it was 'Look Away' by Garnet Mimms which has a sublime latin-style horn section.

What'll it be in the next five minutes? (If my boss catches me with headphones on, the sack probably)

Tune up - J Walker

So many of Dave Hamilton's productions seem to feature such crisp, loud horns - I guess Black Detroit must have had a hell of a lot of good school marching bands in the 60's!

Three examples :-

Little Ann - What Can I Do

Tobi Lark - Challenge My Love

Dotty & Millie - Talkin' Bout My Baby

"A good shout not rubbish subtle and slightly muted maybe". Sorry Mark S but there's nothing subtle and slightly muted about "Girl Watcher". The horn section sound like a bunch of er, horny drunks. Have you heard the original "Boy Watcher" by Ginger Thompson? The horns play the same parts straight and timidly and it's not half as much fun. In my opinion...

LEE ROGERS GO-GO GIRL....NOW THAT'S WHAT I CALL A HORN SECTION!!! POWER POWER POWER, FOOKIN'L FIRE

OMG. Too much info... too much info... ohmy.gif:lol:

Have to agree about Jerry Cook though. Stupendous, tremendous, searing, incendiary super SOUL music!

re, Horn blasts n' brass, what about the fabulous intro to Rufus Wood's "Before 2001"? - or "So Is The Sun"? Loud and bountiful!

Carol Jones- Don't Destroy Me

RAW Ghetto Brass

Maybe not the best, but gritty, oh yes.

On the same label Milton Harris 'You Should Have Told Me'

I love it when the trumpet player hits the duff notes. Makes the record for me.

Tower of Power. Any track you like, the horns're gonna be better than any other horn section you've heard.
