Guest Jim. Posted February 1, 2006 Posted February 1, 2006 Just had to tell someone...I bought a copy of the Betty Wright - Explosion LP which arrived in the post today for the grand total of 4 dollars. The bloody things still in its origional shrink wrap...never been opened and looks brand new! I wanted to put it on the turn table tonight but just cant believe the condition and the fact that nobody has touched this in the last 29 years. What a buzz...

It's a great LP innit You might need to sit down , have a cuppa , play it , calm yourself down and then get some work done before the wife comes back in ! Kev J
Chris Anderton Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 There was a track gettingspins from this LP a couple of years ago, the title escapes me at the moment, but I always think "Life" is the best track on the LP......in saying that the whole LP is very listernable (!). Chris

Chris Keep Feelin' is my fave of the LP, Life of course is fab & Smother Me was a huge London sound. Isn't there a cover of Open The Door To Your Heart on there as well ?? Girf
Guest ZTSC Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 Dig that groovy hair do ! Have a look at the credits on the back - everyones on it. Most of the guys were involved with the Joss Stone stuff.

Guest ZTSC Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 who Aye ,bet yee would'nt say nar to it Chalky !
Neiljon31 Posted February 2, 2006 Posted February 2, 2006 Great that Betty Wright is getting a lot of nods at the moment. "sevens" lp from 1986 has some of my faves by her on it, worth checking out, cannot be more than a few quid I'd guess.

Girf https://www.bsnpubs.com/atlantic/alston.html Not sure how complete that is - but Open.. is on there Also on the ' Travelling In The Wright Circle ' LP. ' This Time For Real ' has the current fave ' Man Of Mine ' . Tho any BW in my book is a belter. ! ATB Rich

Loads of the Alson stuff being banded around lately at venues and on lists - deservedly so ,shes just great
Daved Posted February 3, 2006 Posted February 3, 2006 (edited) Sevens is excellent as were the two that followed in the late 80s - 4U2NJOY and errrr the other one (can't remember the title off hand.) Edited February 3, 2006 by daved
