Always pleased to be educated - this is different, but a cracker nontheless. Nice vocals - and sax don't get much better than that does it? I thought for a minute he was being accompanied by Syd James! Nice one Steve I enjoyed that. Peter 1
Ady Of Newark Posted October 26, 2012 Posted October 26, 2012 My offering for today is the b side of In The Midnight Hour by Little Mac & The Boss Sounds which is a female vocal to the same tune . Cant find it on the net except credited to Ann Mason but it sounds to be the same vocalist....anyway You Can't Love Me (In The Midnight Hour) - Little Mac & The Boss Sounds, on Atlantic (584031) 2

I personally really like it but would be interested to know others thoughts. Maybe you have to go to church on Sundays to get into it ? Got the following off the net:- Members of "The Gospel Classics" were previous members of the Violinaires. The members were Melvin Reed, Leo Coney, Wilson DeShields, James Malone, Cleofas Tilmon, Elceanor Debose, and Charles Williams Five of them were previous Violinaires.

Steve Edgar Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 Over to Cleveland Ohio for this one. On the O'jays own label from late 70's we have Truth and their "Come Back Home" the group had at one time been the Imperial Wonders on Solid Foundation. Gotta say this is 7 minutes of PURE SOUL and to my ears just about the best 7 min's of music ever put on a 45! the vocals of Larry Hancock (ex S.O.U.L. on Musicor) and Leo Green are sublime on this epic and classic builder. Often wondered what the O'jays would have done with this, and tho I'm an immense fan of them, think Eddie Levert and the guys would have come 2nd to this version. Just IMHO I hasten to add! The guys went on to do "Coming Home" on another Cleveland label Devaki, a track also covered by the Temptations but the Tempt's changed the writing credits to their names? Turn the lights down low and grab a slice of skin tingling Soul! Steve
