Lp Only Djs And Their Playlists

[Mattfox]

hi everybody,

we already had topics about "rare lp tracks" a.s.o.

the 7" rules on the scene - no doubt...but a few "outlaws" did lp only sets in the past or are currently spinning 12"s ...

It would be interesting to see/read what these guys spin on niters and which ones are open minded enough for it.

Nowadays the 12" records are gettin' a bit more attention and are much more in-demand than they used to be on the scene back in the days...and to be honest: loads of brill choons out there that were missed in the past because of the northern protocol - imo!

Feel free to post your lp only playlists in here...btw. radio show playlists are also welcome.

Not sure if this topic will get much attention/posts, but let's give it a try...

I know Sam takes 12"s and gets 7" carvers of them.

[Mattfox]

To be honest: LPs are certainly much more interesting for x-over and modern tunes than for strictly northern ...

I know of an ex-DJ (who has left scene 15 years ago) cut down an LP to 7" format so it would fit in his record box. Song in questions was last one on side 1

[Benji]

Matt, do you mean LP-only tracks playlists? Or simply LP playlists?

[Mattfox]

Benji, good question! in my case LP only, but I'd say it's up to the people who wanna post their playlists...

[Benji]

When I dj'd regularly I always took a bunch of LPs with me. Either lp-only tracks, or album tracks that were much much cheaper than the 45 releases, e.g. Silhouettes on Goodway. If I find the time I'll knock a list together of what I played over the years.

[John Reed]

Silhouettes on Goodway

Apart from price, theres a significant difference between the LP and the 7". The 7" is much more puchier and IMO the LP version seems quite flat.

Sorry, not to my ears.

Not that ever had the original 45, but the album sounds so good I can't imagine it's inferior to the 45 press.

[Mattfox]

alternate takes...the other side of LPs...e.g. the smoother version of "Sweet Memories" by The New Sounds/Robert Tanner (sadly a crap recording on Turbo)...but a really nice version anyway!

[Guest Brett F]

Hi Matt, i think as a matter of course and because there is so much great LP (12") material that you should buy albums as readily as you (we) do 45's, i basically could care less if it's an LP or 45', all that counts is the song, i guess on a personal note i've tended to buy LP's where there is either one or several album only tracks, that aren't available as seven inch singles (including alternate, and in some cases superior longer takes ) This has never been a strategic move on my part...It just happened that way.

As for playlists....stand by me in Hamburg, at the all- dayer, i'll play plenty of album only tracks. Ps must add i'm not on the Northern soul scene, but just the 'Soul Scene'

I heard they've renamed that event now - The Hamburg Botschaftbrettfrankfurtershow.

[Mattfox]

Brettmeister,

just list your spins before you play 'em in Hamburg!

[Gene-r]

Hope this is still in topic, but if I were to compile an LP-only playlist, it would look something like this:

1. LARRY WILLIAMS & JOHNNY WATSON: Takin' No Chances (US Okeh - from "Two From The Price Of One")

2. THE METROS: I'll Never Forget You (US RCA - from "Sweetest One")

3. BOBBY BLAND: Sweet Lips Of Joy (US Duke - from "A Touch Of The Blues")

4. FREDA PAYNE: On Easy Street (US MGM - from "How Do You Say I Don't Love You Anymore")

5. THE TOYS: Deserted (US Dynovioce / UK Stateside - from "A Lovers Concerto")

6. TOMMY NAVARRO: I'm Comin' On Back (US Urania - from "Twist Around The Town")

7. DEE CLARK: I Love You Darling (US Abner / UK Top Rank - from "How About That")

8. THE MAGNIFICENT MEN: Keep On Climbing (US Capitol - from "The Magnificent Men")

9. THE RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS: It's Up To You (US / UK Verve - from "Souled Out")

10. ARCHIE BELL & THE DRELLS: A Thousand Wonders (US Atlantic - from "TIghten Up")

[Mattfox]

e.g. these smooth x-over choons will be in my box for the next laid-back Alldayer:

Earl Carter & The Fantastic 6 - Make It With You - S/T (Princess)

Willie Wright - I'm So Happy - Telling The Truth (Hotel)

It's perfectly acceptable Matt to play the LP cut of 'Cry To Me'...because that is the superior and longer version than the 45' all 5 minutes 45 seconds of it compared to the 3 minutes 34 seconds of the Aware 45'.....You tell that Mike Lofthouse to come and see me after school has ended...

Matt i've posted an absolute load on the Facebook crossover thread..all ones i have mate, can't do that all again.

And you should go back to school and learn to read properly - Matt was not suggesting playing 'Cry To Me' but 'Casanova' from the 'Cry To Me' album

You also corrected him about 'I Can't Help Myself' - but you also mis-read that - he was suggesting it as an alternative to 'Casanova' and was saying 'tongue in cheek' was it on 45?

[Guest Brett F]

Mike you and Matt have obviously elaborated a weird and fantastical cover up, I know I saw Cry to me.....I Tells you I did...... I Tells You....

[Haydn]

Keisha Brown - Midnight Train To Georgia (lovely live version of this classic) - Live (Little Star)

with you on this Matt, picked it up on a dig and was pleasantly surprised on listening

Awww Benji - I was getting ready to come quietly as well!

[Mattfox]

Supplement:

surely it's always more interesting to get a list together of lp-only tracks...but I decided, in this case, to ask people listing their playlists and I don't wanna neglect particular songs that are/were part of a set cause they were released on 45 as well, you know?!

But lp-only tracks are - for sure - always the most exciting point in threads like this!!

Especially the semi-knows, underplayed and cheapies - along with the classics and rare ones!

now it's your turn...

Edited September 14, 2012 by mattfox

[Benji]

a few randomly selected crossover, 70s (+ one 90s) LP tracks, most of them are covers. (Seems like I have a liking for cover versions.)

Terry Callier - I don't want to see myself (1999 version) - Talkin' Loud UK "Lifetime"

Chuck Jackson - Can I change my mind - Tamla-Motown (GER) "Going back to Chuck Jackson"

Mel & Tim - I may not be what you want - Stax (GER)"Starting all over again"

Barbara Lewis - Baby that's a no no - Stax (GER) "Many grooves of"

Millie Jackson - Somethin' bout cha - Polydor (GER) "Lovingly yours"

Monitors - You share the blame - Tamla-Motown (GER) "Greetings! We're the Monitors"

Baby Washington - Hurt so bad - Veep "With you in mind"

Bobby Hutton - Lead me on - ABC "Piece of the action"

Bobby Patterson - I get my groove from you - Paula "It's just a matter of time"

Bridge - Turn to me - FER (UK) "Crying for love

Sydney Joe Quails - I'll run to your side - 20th Century "So sexy"

Jon Lucien - Would you believe - RCA "Rashida"

I'm pretty sure most if not all are LP-only tracks.
