Guest Paul Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 (edited) now that is sad news.........have HMV w/d's of both their top tunes and that refro clip of her singing is spot on R.I.P girl tezza Just talking recently about compilation albums which helped introduce me to soul music and I remember first hearing 'Gotta Have Your Love' on EMI's Soul Bible LP (Probe) when I was about fourteen.

Guest TONY ROUNCE Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 now that is sad news.........have HMV w/d's of both their top tunes Think you'll find that the Sapphires had more than two top tunes, my friend.... Their Swan singles are absolutely sublime, and their other ABC singles are at least a match for 'their two top tunes' (as are their flipsides) Carol had such a pretty voice, it's a shame that their discography is so small... R I P my dear.

macca Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 (edited) Gotta Have Your Love is an indelible part of my youth. Not least for the youth club where I first heard it, but also for those countless occasions when played at a nighter, usually late on, when the troops were flagging and the light was peeping through the curtains. I'm welling up thinking about it right now... Edited November 1, 2010 by macca

Bigsoulman Posted November 4, 2010 Posted November 4, 2010 I Found Out Too Late on Swan is a personal fave RIP Carol
funkyfeet Posted November 5, 2010 Posted November 5, 2010 Far too many great stars have left us recently, this is so sad, but on a personal note I thank them for the huge legacy of superb music they leave for our continued pleasure and enjoyment. One of my all time favourite girl groups, I salute the achievements of Carol Canty, R.i.p, a 'Sublime Soulstress'. One of the strangest girl groups as The Sapphires were two males and Carol.
