Guest GavKnight Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Here's a couple that are old enough for me to be oldies! Scientists of Soul - Be's that a way sometime - Kashe MM & the Peanuts - The Phillie - Money Mr Caldwell - Love Bandit - Scorpio
Little-stevie Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 not claiming to be a dj and also very rarely get out, but at soul or nothing last week i played bobby hebb you want to change me and quite a few people said 'haven't heard that for 20 years'. so whether it's really forgotten or just forgotten by those people, i'd nominate that excellent tune. Good choice Dan..That made a few peoples night .. A few underplayed oldies i play are If i were a carpenter...........Four Tops.. Lead me on.... Gwen Mcrae Someday Tempest One step at a time Maxine Brown One night affair Jerry Butler Who knows Marion Black As long as you need me Four Tops... So says my heart Latimore Brown Don't lose that dream Aretha All over but the shouting Ann Sexton All great quality oldies that stand the test of time...IMO
Dayo Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Sounds I'd lurve to hear out again.... They call me Jesse James (+ the flip Charge) - Jesse James & the Dreams Band Do the 45 - Sharpees You're not lovin a beginner - Jesse Fisher Uhuru - Jomo (never heard this anywhere!) It's also been a zillion year since I heard Mary Love's Turned my bitter into sweet.... but it's such a classic I'm sure someone is still hammering it. Colin (penchant for Wheel sounds) Day!
grant Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Tune ! Also O'Jays - Girl Machine. Anyone else out there spinning Andre Williams - You Got It (& I Want it) (Ric -Tic) ? Tried andre williams at Guild Hall Stockport a h=few months back - almost cleared the floor - great track though mate - same backing as 'Determination' (Fab Apollos?)

Guest Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 "So go on Soul Sources lets hear your personal selections for a reactivation of a forgotten oldie" Hello Russ, My personal favourite ... don't think I have heard it played more than once in the last ten years, but I could be very wrong! If fact Big Scotty may have only played it because I asked! General Assembly - Sensitive Mind, bit more on the psychadelic side than soul IMO but still gets my little fat legs moving! Might be a bit too fast for some of you old folk (tee hee) Louise
Chalky Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 not claiming to be a dj and also very rarely get out, but at soul or nothing last week i played bobby hebb you want to change me and quite a few people said 'haven't heard that for 20 years'. so whether it's really forgotten or just forgotten by those people, i'd nominate that excellent tune. have they been out in 20 years Dan
Guest Netspeaky Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Four from me: Billy Joe Young - Got You on My Mind Again b/w Standing At The Edge Of Paradise (Paula) Top notch double sider, back in the DJ box Artistics - Patty Cakes (Okeh) Top notch Finger Snapper Maurice Williams - Baby Baby (Dee Su) Forgotten flip to "Being with you" Fantastic Puzzles - Come Back (New Moon) Spun this the other night, back in the DJ box.
Micksmix Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 The Steelers - Walk On By this got the proverbial 'haven't heard that played out for years' when I span it at BIDDS. Similarly at Soul or Nothing The Kittens - Gotta Be Love and at Soulsville all dayer The Volumes - My Kinda Girl. At Lifeline I played Jefferey Allen - Dilly Dilly only to be told it is currently covered up so must definately have been forgotten since it was played in the early '80's It's nice to play at venues where you slip tracks like these in and they're appreciated. Ged Jeffrey Allen covered up as hal miller "on top of the world" I think,played around mid-nineties as this at albrighton,is it the one on mala ged? Mick
Chalky Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Jeffrey Allen covered up as hal miller "on top of the world" I think,played around mid-nineties as this at albrighton,is it the one on mala ged? Mick was played ten years before this as well yep it is on Mala.

Mick Thats the one. I first heard it at (ironically) TOTW and bought mine around that time. I guess about '82 only ever seen one other. Perhaps thats why its forgotten.

Bigsoulman Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Another one i used to love was JERRY BUTLER'S version of ONLY THE STRONG SURVIVE, it was popular at the oldies allnighters towards the end of the casino. Used to sound great when everyone clapped along with the build up to the chorus. AHH ! what memories !! Now you're talking !!! Absolutely superb, think I've got it on a Oldies anniversary tape (& vinyl of course) &yes the clapping on this is great, memories indeed Keep meaning to play it out, never get round to it, blast :angry: no doubt a few of these will now get played everywhere & we'll all (well some of us) will get tired of 'em after 1000 plays . Glad someone mentioned this great track, he's got another brilliant album only track which is packing them in up here called Stop Stepping On My Dreams from his Spice Of Life album, a fantastic song very similar to Survive, is getting serious dancefloor action by myself and a couple of other Scottish dj's, album is cheap as chips on ebay, have a listen on Soul Club, then you'll buy it!! Lenny

Simsy Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 talking of eddie holman does i surrender get played anywhere now. cos that is a class tune This was featured in the Wigan play 'Once upon a time'. Reminded me of what a great record it is. O'Jays - Whip It On ME Baby ( now this really does need re-activating, brilliant ) * Indeed. Superb choice. Imperial records, e-bay, tenner. Few of old faves, some probably wouldn't standup to a dust off, but; Patti & The Emblems - I'm gonna love you a long long time. Hesitations - I'm not built that way. Tony Middleton - Spanish Maiden. Carl Douglas - Serving a sentence of life. Chubby Checker - You just don't know. Lou Roberts - Ten to one.

Bazm Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Some DJ's have a great knack for reactivating those barely remembered choons from years gone by...........whether they have been rested, rare & never turned up, never booted, only played a hand ful of times or whatever, I have great admiration for the DJ that digs these up & plays them out & they receive a whole new lease of life, some of them are almost like newies to a lot of the scene for one reason or another. So go on Soul Sources lets hear your personal selections for a reactivation of a forgotten oldie.........forgotten being the key element here, please none of the top 500 & lets not get into the debate about whats an oldie to one is a newie to another or whatever I think you all know the kinda thing I mean. Russ Great thread Russ.............Here's some selections from the Wigan Panel Tony Owens This Heart Cant Take No More Kenny Ballard I'm Losin You Madeline Wilson Dial L for Lonely Willie Hatcher Head Over Heels Rosetta Johnson That Hurts Ted Ford Your Gonna Need Me Johnny Maestro Heartburn Eddie Parker You'll Never Make the Grade C L Blast What Can I Do Billy Keene Wishing and Hopeing Ruby Johnson Weakspot Al Wilson Now I Know What Love Is and my favourite, 'never off the deck, pure soul, what 'Northern' means to me, gonna get the works at Bury in March' tune ..............Little Charles ............Talkin About You, Babe Keep em comin' THE ORWELL - FRIDAY 24th FEBRUARY Wigan Pier, Wigan Soul Sam, Flanny, Steve Connor, Barry Maleady, Steve Plumb With Special Guest DJ GLYN THORNHILL 8.30 pm - 2.30 am (with a 2 am bar!) 70's Modern & Crossover Soul with a smattering of quality Northern
