Hi all,

Exactly 12 months since we did the last 'Top Tips' thread... and therefore 24 months since the previous - and 36 months since the first :yes: - so, as it's now become a Soul Source tradition, here we go again!

Here's your opportunity to tip the tunes in your box for future greatness during the coming year... or simply list any number that you'd like to recommend to other Soul Sourcers.

You might be a DJ with that tasty unplayed, unknown, hardly played or semi-known 45 stuck in the back of your box that you'd love to play... but haven't quite got around to it... yet!

You might be a collector, sitting on a tune that you know, if it got into the right hands, could become massive in the next 12 months.

It could be an LP track that, for whatever reason, has never been given the recognition it deserves.

It might be a tasty 'B' side that, given the right exposure, might just have what it takes to become a monster!

No need to post sound clips. Just let us know what you've got that you think deserves a plug in the coming year!

So come on. Look at your box and let's have your top tip (or tips) for 2010.

Oh... and a Happy (and Soulful) New Year to all.

The best is yet to come!

:thumbup:

this is amazing. I listened to this stylistics record not 10 ten minutes ago for the first time in ages and also thought it sounded brill. 2 good sides for a record i picked up for 50p at leeds market last year. For me the record that is seriously underated and should be played more is the controllers ' is that long enough for you' on President. Also think The Precisons ' New York City' on ATCO is a go'er.

Blimey where would Hampster be without soul-source . 4 coverups in my box ready for 2010 lol ph34r.gif:lol:

Glad to be of service Simon.

From what I've heard, you need all the help you can get! :lol:

Jonathon Jeremiah 'What's A Guy Got To Do' - fully-orchestrated Modern goodness from a UK talent, simply brilliant imo and one of my favourite tunes from the latter end of 2009 that appears to have slipped under the radar.

Ditto that Mike, big in my front room, unusual picture cover and a 10" too which makes it

an overall unusual and collectable piece, was very limited on vinyl on its release,

think it is deleted now as those that had it have not been able to re-stock, beautiful record

all round, Rick

OK - Back on Topic.

Some good ones for starters here.

Once we've got a good bunch I'll start to compile a list.

Would be helpful if you include all correct info Artist / Title / Label.

Cheers

:shhh:

The unissued Sam Dees track 'Running Out Of Places To Hide that Bob Jones is spinning seems to be getting talked about by those who have heard it.

One for me that could go massive in any R&B room:

Bobby Marchan - Funny Style - Dial

Not unknown, but I'm amazed this is not a classic yet.. it's got everything, rhythm'n'soul perfection from '65! You should be able to find one for 30£ or less, give it a listen in the refosoul section!

Lovely stuff Nev,

Rod Dearlove used to have.

It's William Bollinger by all accounts.

Just right for now mate!

Sean

Correct ,Willie on vocals ..label scan is on my profile ....the flip is the one i posted in "sweet and deep,any day of the week" under the name of Willie Bollinger.

Strangley the guy i bought it off was pushing the flip side , was aware of the IYSBM ,but actually thought the "just loving you" would sell it betterohmy.gif

Thanked him for that cos i think it saved me a few bobthumbsup.gif

I wondered if anyone else had ever had it ,someone on here told me Soul Sam had mentioned it a few yrs back ,but did'nt have a copy himself??

Only other copy went on Tim Brown's auction a couple of yrs back ,to a top bloke on here ,who at this present moment does'nt djno.gif

Has anyone ever played the flip of the best 70's record EVER( get your point over) . Try this one ....

I DON'T CARE WHAT MAMA SAID - SEBASTIAN WILLIAMS - OVIDE good.gif

Kenneth & Delory with Ben Brown & Mojo Supreme Ensemble - Let Me Hold You Close Pt1 - Steeltown

Hi Chalky,

I was expecting this to really take off last year, but despite a few plays it never really seemed to catch on. Brilliant record and deserves to get a lot more attention.....let's hope that 2010 sees it on a lot more playlists :shhh:

irma routen-i will sacrifice -mgm proper nighter tune..thumbsup.gif

Been looking for one of these ever since you put the soundfile in the 60s thread Steve.....zero luck in finding one though :lol:. Great stuff good.gif.

Couple from me that I've got high hopes for in 2010:

Keith & Billie - Tastes Sour Don't It c/w If You Move You Lose - Piccadilly.

UK only double sider that sounds the business out loud....thanks to Mr Fingers for giving me the tip on this.

Jo Ann Garrett - What'cha Been Doing - Duo

Keith & Bilie so versatile pitch it up 2 bars and it,s a Northern Classic mould but keep it at normal and it,s just right for today. Thanks Adam for parting with your spare copy, I will give it some welly this year.
