Just to let you know that THIS Sunday at The Orwell all dayer, we'll be dropping the most incredible record most will hear this year!

Rob Grant sent me a cd-r of this a month ago and i've been bursting to play it at The Orwell..........................

Listening to the record you will seriously not beleive it was made this year! It sounds like 70's Philly Soul at it's very best. Fabulously catchy song, raspingly soulful vocals sounding not unlike a cetain Mr Pendergrass, real drums, swirling Salsoul strings, vibes et al................................I kid ye not THIS IS A MONSTER.

My guess is that the 'Orwell type' venues will go bananas for it, Y2K Modern Soul venues will lap it up and the Northern scene may even take it to it's heart - it's that good!

So what's it called then?

'That's what love does'

Produced and arranged by Vince Montana Jr with vocals from William 'Smoke' Howard (ex of The Ebony's)

Coming out on 12" in September but will be played out THIS Sunday at The Orwell.

Have a quick listen here https://robgrantrecords.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Sounds/vince.rm

My advice is to drop Rob an email on robgrant@blueyonder.co.uk to secure your vinyl copy the day it comes out!

Cheers

Possibly the same record I heard the weekend before last??

Your description sounds excatly like one I heard in a bar in Newport.

It blew me away, so I went up the the wally DJ, who was playing it off a white label 12". I asked him who it was etc etc, and he said he didnt know, he just had records sent to him and he played them whistling.gif

So I offered him a tenner and he knocked me back. I went up to the £60 I had on me. He said he wouldnt sell it because I was either pissed or mental, and either way I'd be coming back demanding my money back and he didnt want the hassle. Just before a bouncer asked if I'd rather drink in a different bar, I managed to tell the Dj I wasnt drunk :thumbsup:

Even went back the next lunchtime and had a word with the bar staff. This doughnut only works every other Saturday night in the bar. I'm going back very early this Saturday to try to convince the guy I genuinely want the record. I just hope he can remember which one it was and can find it.

Deffo not worth £60,its allright they will be 50p by next year?,how can you compare this with Teddy P.........no way!!!...surely when DJs get this stuff,theyre

sent reaction sheet,which will have all the info one needs release date;artist;etc

or what is the point?,anyway wait a couple of weeks you will be able to buy in

the shops then actualy support the artist you like so much!and not the DJ who you

obviously you dont like!!!.....Keep the faith,Ken

Kenny,

The above 12 is forthcoming on vinyl in 3 weeks or so.

It's a US import and will be available for around 8 pounds.

Not quite sure where you're gettin the idea it'll cost 60 pounds??

Anyway, thanks to the people who've placed their order..

Much appreciated.

Rob.

Doesn't matter how good it is if I'm going to have to snap it in half to fit it into my box.

Isn't there some clever vinyl compression technology that could fit it onto a proper record?

12", whatever next!

It's a superb choon , got a copy of it on CD five weeks ago with various mixes on it (cheers CUNNIE) it's been played around East Mids and Sth Yorks now for a month or so, doe's that make this area a hotbed for soul music :wicked::unsure:

No it means the Soul Police are on their way...CD? whatever next...mp3's and a laptop with a powerpoint presentation of labels we can't afford projected behind the DJ? :unsure:

Tune Of the Night at Lowton Civic Hall Modern Room last night sounded fantastic and causing quite a stir with the crowd. Looks like being a monster sound over the coming months.

Very well produced but deceidedly ordinary imho, just needs a little spark to bring it out, tends to go on a bit, would buy it for a fiver but certainly none of the prices quoted on here

Not at all John, just the hype on this forum making it out to be a top tune, don't really think i'd play either

I think you'll find the dancefloor reaction to this,over the coming months will prove it's not just 'hype'.

It's a great great tune.

I suppose it's a bit cheap at £7.99 to be a 'top tune' :thumbsup:

Nothing at all to do with the price, I just don't think it's a strong enough record but as you say the dancefloor will decide

Finally got round to buying a copy. Don't buy many new releases these days but if they were up to the quality of this release I'm sure I'd buy a lot more :thumbsup: Anyone recommend some other new releases worth buying.

soulmac.

Plenty around as ever, some of my faves in the past month or so as follows..

Blaze - Here With Me - Lifeline

Pirana Head & Diviniti - Love - Mahogani

DJ Oji Ft Carolyn Victorian - Everything U Want - King Street

Hajime Yoshizawa Ft Vanessa Freeman - Sweet Way - Geneon (Jap cd)

You'll always find plenty of decent recomendations in Neil Rushton/Bob Jones columns in Manifesto, and I'ld be lost without Paul Phillips Sat night show on Solar Sky 879 (2200 - 0000).

Cheers, Robin

There`s two real soul albums out at the moment you might want to give a listen to. Lou Pride - Keep on believing for the excellent "love will make it alright".

The Unifics album - Return for the midtempo gem "lifetime and a half".

Trouble is there cd only so a lot on here might turn there noses up at them :shades::shades:
