:PI WAS SUPRISED U GUYS NEVER FOUND THAT SOUL TUNE

barabas and check mate

i can base the whole story on a tune u never herd

all those dee jays that are connected to it and u never found the flavour man

appart from thinking i was a linole blair which was a bit unfair ,we have to start with this tune :lol:

i will try to explain wat it meant in the birth of the above said movement ,it might take months to explain

i am a slow talker

dont think any one elese here knows it

unless its criss hill gerg edwards of vincent on the other screne man, or any other midwife so to speak :lol:

is a fasinating look at the birth of back in the day

better than meeeting phat boy slimm or any other vinil vampire

u might find it to be the most iintreging story in the world

Barabas - Check Mate - Black Cat records 1976 / 1977? I think from memory.

I have a copy deep in my vaults, came across from the USA on the Jazz Funk wave in the mid seventies.

well done martin :yes:

listen to the tune most notably the overt sound of the clavernet, suading away over real hand claps

it had a uniquike kind of feel to it, way before rolls royce had double hand claps in car wash

it was a dark tune with a evervesent bruce lee power in it... as to pound ones feet away to the 7 inch single :thumbsup:

why was this tune so uniquike in the foundations of the thang

that is wat u must ask

Hi Del,

Without being rude can i ask you to try and post with more consideration for the reader?

i am sure you have some interesting things to say but most of it is going over our heads.

it is all becoming a little like Huggy Bear in Starsky & Hutch! :thumbsup:

thanks

Shane

and years later carl mackintosh used it on the out bars on

his monster hit with loose ends" hangin on a string"

its the same kind of clavernt break " you ba you bar da you bar do bar da "

Memory failure, right label colour, wrong name

Barrabas - Checkmate c/w Mellow Blow - ATCO records (yellow and white) 1975

Both sides are pretty good Jazz Funk from that period used to play them both.

Pete Smiths your man for this stuff :D

Del when was this released on your planet?

If Carl Mackintosh did use it on 'Hanging on a string', the sample source was never creditted.....maybe you mean he 'reinterpretted' the original tune and used it as part of his composition - therefore avoiding the sampling/ licensing fee :thumbsup: Jo

I've just got off the phone to my man at the CIA. He reckons Del is probably some sort of virtual-reality programme designed by the Soviets to inflitrate the soul scene. Like Hal in 2001: A Space Odyssey, only different. And not quite as intelligible. The word from the spooks is Del might be about to try a takeover so be on your guard.

putting hands over mouth trying to stifle a guffaw.....Martyn, you are TOO droll :rolleyes::huh::lol: and thanks for the link.........Jo

Del,

Just reading your first post again, why did you assume / think that no one else here would know the tune?

Any others that you want to throw in that we may not know.
