Chalky Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 southern artists used to be the hard one IMO as I saw more Bell at one time (IMO) now other way round if you ask me. wouldn't have thought there would be too much in the price though between the two Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

MarkWhiteley Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 no, not sure if that was cheap or not though? I personally loathe it - as ted says a good for nothing pop record, should be sub £20 IMO Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Dan Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 It does Dan i like Fleetwood mac Rumours LP above any soul lp Stevie Nicks voice of an angel great voice she has indeed ted talking (off topic) about fleetwood mac, have you ever tried lying in the grass under a tree on a hot summers day listening to albatross nice and loud on headphones almost a trippy experience possibly my favourite instrumental of all time...ahem...i mean double cooking is...er sorry i mean bari track...no, makin up time.... me too... Pat Brady....Lee Otis Valentine "I love you just the same" that's the fellah chalky, good memory goes with good taste Personally i think the A-Bet 45 "Bigger And Better" is a far more soulful record...that's if it's the same group which i think it is. Mark Bicknell. same group, both written by robert lee holmes jr mark agree bigger and better is also excellent but (from an early memories pov) YDEKMN shades it for me mind you my wife says the music sounds like a cycling scene from a carry on film, and she's right, too, so that has mildly affected it for me Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 16, 2005 Share Posted September 16, 2005 I don't like this record, too wishy washy and poppy, whatever the singers may look like it sounds like something that should be filed under "MOR" or "entertainment". "Bigger & Better" is better but I am not so fond of that either. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

"Bigger & Better" is better but I am not so fond of that either. god forbid that soul should be entertainment eh christian i know what you (all) mean, it's not the rawest or grittiest sound ever but it just has something for me. i've always been more into the mid-tempo sounds anyway and maybe i'm coloured by memories of when and where i first heard it (100 club 1985/6/ Ian Clark i think, say no more) . if i heard it for the first time now, maybe i'd think differently (doubt it but who can say) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest in town Mikey Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Its a great tune. perfect for the timeit was played, and picking up a copy for a tenner would be as good as watching us win the Ashes! I would despair about certain people not liking it, if they didnt dislike 95% of the records on the Northern Soul scene anyway. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Dan Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Ian, Mikey, Byrney...you boys all have taste, what can I say? Inspired by this little thread, I decided to look into the Hytones and made a tiny bit of progress. This may be common knowledge so if it is I apologise in advance, but: Robert Lee Holmes Jr, the writer of both YDEKMN and BAB (among a number of other tunes) sadly died about five years ago. However, I did manage to get hold of his widow yesterday. She has got 40 copies of YDEKMN and 30 of BAB plus loads of unrealeased tapes, including what she described as some 'four to the floor, stomping, northern sounds with big production, big vocals, lots of horns and some great arrangements'. It's all languishing in her basement and she's happy to give it to me!* Freddie Waters is dead and no-one knows where Skeet Alsup is, apparently. However, Mrs Holmes did give me details for Eddie Frierson, the lead singer, who is still alive. I haven't raised him yet but if and when I do I'll obviously post anything interesting. Ted Jarrett, the maestro behind labels such as Poncello, Spar and Excello, is still alive (Ace/Kent have done a lot of his stuff, of course) and very friendly and approachable. He has a book coming out shortly called You Can Make It If You Try: The Ted Jarrett Story of R&B in Nashville, authored by Ted Jarrett with Ruth White, which I would think will be a great read. Anyway, not much further on but a bit. cheers all Dan *Sadly, that's a lie: she didn't really want to talk about those days at all and said she had no mementos. But a nice pipe dream.

Geordiejohnson Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Think Pinchers just payed £1700 for Bell copy, according to geordie anywho The pinches didnt get it in the end, as soon as they showed serious intrest up to giving the £notes the guy backed off and said he was keeping it. did that with a few others, he had them in a sales box and as soon as anyone said theyd have whatever record, he said "Im not selling now" think he was judging what people thought were decent. (why boither putting them up for sale and then keeping them...Makes no sense). I think the bell copy he has was andy dysons once apon a time Geeooooordie Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Scooterboy Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Has anyone got a copy for sale? (First time I've used this, so not sure if this should really be in the 'Wants' section) Been chasing (and missing) a decent copy for a long, long time ever since the days of Pat's Lee Otis Valentine and The Lost Souls c/u If you have a copy and it's in great condition I'd be very interested c.penn@lyreco.com Thanking you in anticipation Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
