Guest Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Another day and another selection from the collection, I'll open myself up for abuse by saying that IMO this is the best version of this song bar none....
Guest ritchie Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Another cheapy that gets lots of front room action...
Guest Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Picked one of these up in New York last year, not many people seemed to know it but what an awesome record...Perfect tempo for today, with stunning vocals, somebody ought to get behind this...Only just appeared on youtube as far as I know. Edited October 19, 2011 by rich chorley
Wiggyflat Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Stormer and perfect tempo for todays scene...
Guest Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Another day and another selection from the collection, I'll open myself up for abuse by saying that IMO this is the best version of this song bar none.... Sounds like some geezer from Hartlepool screaming into an old Phillips tape recorder, with a copy of 'The Mighty Wurlitzer meets Tamla' LP playing on a very bad Fidelity stereo behind him! No abuse, but how that is better than the mighty Mr HATCHER'S piece of coolsville Detroit mastery beats me!!!.....
nightfiler Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 My record of the day today is a nice shot of R&B:- Jimmy Hughes - Neighbour Neighbour www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK_qq7SkjSA Prefer the faster version!
Swifty Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 Another little gem I just played and for a few squidllies , trouble is it's one of those tunes that you can't get out of your head Swifty 1

No abuse, but how that is better than the mighty Mr HATCHER'S piece of coolsville Detroit mastery beats me!!!..... Hello Rich, Understand where you're coming from and I agree that the production and vocal of Edwin's release stand head and shoulders above this. Which is actually part of the reason I prefer the Little Kenny version....Edwin's is almost too smooth and polished whereas this version is raw, gritty as hell and packed with power. The youtube clip doesn't really do it justice as it's one of those records that to be fully appreciated needs to be heard out on a club system. Reserve your final judgement for Saturday, when I believe you're DJing at the Brothers Of Soul afternoon warm up? I'm also DJing there and will spin this......whilst I very much doubt you will then think it the better version, I do think you'll be a touch less damning of it Rich , Sitting on the fence a bit mate , agree (sorry Adam but that is not in the same league matey ) Swifty No need to apologise mate, just trying to induce a bit of discussion about something other than the 'Oldies vs Rare' or 'Boots vs OVO' that are beginning to bore me ever so slightly
Amsterdam Russ Posted October 19, 2011 Posted October 19, 2011 The Angelenos - Lori (Highland). Only arrived in the post this afternoon, but reckon I've played it eight or nine time already - and uploaded it to YouTube. Not only is it one of those tracks that creeps up on you, but it's got Mexican/Mariachi-style horns - and that always does it for me! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVDWcHf4sNA&feature=colike
Guest Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 https://youtu.be/VmQyhwSjaGE Gorgeous version of the much covered classic by REGGIE MILNER...cracking record..... 1

(one for all the real weirdos like me!)....

But look forward to hearing your 'garage' version up loud on saturday at 'The Rocket' mate, see you then!...and yes, dare I say it, this is much more interesting and - fun - than the endless OVO threads...

Guest Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 https://youtu.be/javE_5Yfc58 New one to me and I like, like, like it! What a fab label as well.....sort of label that would make you buy the record blind cos one look and you're thinking 'that has to be good'! Got to get this for myself, poverty here I come yet again....unless anyone has a clean and cheapish one they want to rehome
Shsdave Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 That's a superb record. Indeed it is Pete pretty sure i bought my copy from you
Shsdave Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Another one from me on Cassablanca, Greg Perry, "Come on down" https://youtu.be/-ceKmWak1F8 What a fantastic album, bought it at time of release & just played it again & again & again. He had another album released on RCA a few years later, unfortunately a big disappointment after One for the Road. Having said that I named my daughter after the beautiful track "Melodie"
Wiggyflat Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 Great record....a nice early seventies feel....file next to the Symphonics Guilty (which I'm still after). Got my copy about a year ago. 2
Wiggyflat Posted October 20, 2011 Posted October 20, 2011 And the Symphonics.....still want this.It's not really like the Limitations though! 1

Jim G Posted October 21, 2011 Posted October 21, 2011 Dooley Silverspoon "Game Players", bought it new in on release in 1976, sold it in 1995, got another copy this week Oddly, the rhythm and pace is very similar to Benny Troy "I wanna give you tomorrow", but I think Dooley is a better record IMO you tube link is not my copy 1
