Guest Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) I remember Levine playing an alternate version of Cajun Hart`s "Got to find a way" about 10 years ago at a weekender and also on Searling`s Sunday show. He announced that it was a far superior version, no idea who it was but it was utter shite and an insult to the original.

Benji Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 The apparently german-only version of Cliff Nobles "love is allright" by the Johnson Brothers is horrible. Complete talent-free singer with very amateur-ish backing. THAT makes your ear bleed. Will post it in RefoSoul soon far too many to metion spike but one i do keep hearing at the moment that makes my ears bleed is the instrumental to Lou Pride's - Im Comin Home In The Morn'un, drives me feckin bonkers You mean Southwind Symphony? I think that's a brilliant version. But as they say one man's Helen Shapiro is the other man's Lavern Banker I remember Levine playing an alternate version of Cajun Hart`s "Got to find a way" about 10 years ago at a weekender and also on Searling`s Sunday show. He announced that it was a far superior version, no idea who it was but it was utter shite and an insult to the original. Isn't the sh*te one the first and/or original version?

Carol Phyllis Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 (edited) Anything by the California Raisins, they are my pet hate. Also, a song I picked up at a car boot, "Baby I Need Your Loving" by the Fourmost, (a 60S Merseybeat band) sounds worse than me on Karaoke and thats hard to beat !!! Not worth the 10p I paid for it thats for sure!!! Edited April 11, 2011 by Girl Dancer Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Matt Male Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Was it ever supposed to be a soul sound? thought it was only played (or given to be played) as a wind up ? I agree Mike, no one ever claimed any of the records above are soul records. Plenty of non-soul played on the northern scene including Lenny Gamble. I don't think the original question makes any sense. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

One man's meat indeed, Cajun Hart would be in any all time favourite top 30 I ever did. Used to be number 1 for a long time. Bill Bush is ok. Geoffrey Metliko is shocking. Helen Shapiro is fabulous.
