Cheers Manus
Rbman Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 See my thread this week about the Isley Brothers Regal Starline LP from 1971....just entitled "The Isley Brothers" including 7 previously unleased motown tracks.....wonderfl stuff.
Liljimmycrank Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Too many to mention!! LP's are just SOOOOOOO underrated it's untrue. Many a time you buy an LP for a known LP only track, and then find other little gems on there! Or some are just packed full of great tunes that were released on single. Ralph Graham, Sonny Til, James Brown, Garland Green, Jerry Butler, Marvin & Tammi but to name a tiny handful.......All done amazing LP's packed with great tunes. I've no doubt this thread will go many ways - great LP's full of tunes, LP's with superb LP only tracks, discussions about playing a tune of an LP when it has a single release etc BUT All fantastic healthy debate, so well done to the original poster, hopefully it will throw up some nice finds!!

Mike Lofthouse Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 hello guys what are your favorite Northern lps, i dont mean compilations i mean by artist like, Williams and Watson, Two for the price of one ,or Gloria Jones , Come go with me, or timi yuro ect,ect The 'Nolan' album has 'Keep On Keepin On', 'Oh Baby' and ' If Only I Could Be Sure' - but generally its a bit weird! The Gloria Jones LP you mention has a first side that is crammed with dancers - every track - but comes in at under 10 mins!!
billb Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) Played The Esquires - Get on up and get away LP the other day. I hadn't played it for yonks, forgot how good it was. Edited April 1, 2010 by billb
Mark S Posted April 3, 2010 Posted April 3, 2010 Played The Esquires - Get on up and get away LP the other day. I hadn't played it for yonks, forgot how good it was. The only LP you will ever need all killer no filler absolute class from begining to end .

Kev Cane Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Got far too many lps i love to really just pick the 1, but for out and out northern it has to be Hesitations Soul Superman Superb choice, but "Born Free" set is equally as good, packed with movers and incredible ballads, big big fave up here in the NE.

Harry Crosby Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Rare Stamps-Steve Mancha & JJ Barnes Tony Mine too tony, had it a couple of times now, sold my british stax one some time ago, then when i got married 3yrs ago, mr tony coleby gave me one for a wedding present, gets used more than the russell hobbs toaster we also got great album not a bad track
Ficklefingers Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice !! Never seen that before !! Is the 'My Hearts On Fire' the same tune as Billy Bland on Old Town ?? Any good ?? What's the album like as a whole ?? Luverly luverly luverly.. Fingers PS Whilst I'm on I might as well make a nomination from oh, soooo many.. Jackie Wilson's 'Soul Galore' LP - I'm fortunate to have a spanking UK Coral copy & really champion the LP only offerings 'Everything's Gonna Be Fine' and 'Your Loss My Gain' NB: All the other tracks on the album were released as A & B sides on 45's.. Possible the two I mention were destined for 45 but didn't happen ?? Food for thought.. ??
Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted April 4, 2010 Posted April 4, 2010 My favourite LP's are Jackie Wilson - Higher and Higher - for the song Open the door To Your Heart. My other favs are Isley Brothers - This Old Heart of Mine Jimmy James - A New Religon Percy Sledge - When a Man Loves a Woman some slow songs on it but great album
