Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Does anyone have a fav Soul LP, Mine has to be Jackie Wilson - Higher and Higher which i own, it includes my fav song of all time on it Open The Door To Your Heart
Guest Dan Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 lots of great lps out there matthew and cheap, compared to singles, too the impressions released some awesome stuff but i think my favourite album is the tempests lp on smash
Eddie Hubbard Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Fave Soul album must be Whats Going On - Marvin Gaye , best Northern one probably The Hesitations Soul Superman or Williams and Watson - Two for the price of one .Best ,Eddie
binsy Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Fave soul albums Sam Dees - Show must go on and Sandra Wright - Wounded woman. It's a shame the Dees album doesn't have ' Signed miss heroin' on it.

Gene-r Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 For me, it's a dilemma between: Sweetest One - The Metros Two For The Price Of One - Larry Williams & Johnny Watson

tone5446 Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 John Edwards LP on Aware Lou Courtney In need of love Jackie Wilson Beautiful Day
Sweeney Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 The Soul Children - Friction - not a bad track on it. Otis Clay - The Only Way Is Up - likewise.

Guest Richard Bergman Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 The Soul Children - Friction - not a bad track on it. Otis Clay - The Only Way Is Up - likewise. Friction contains the great " were getting to close"
uni ted Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 jason i am agreeing with nowt else you say to-day,just pulled out and listened to some of the lou courtney-i"m in need of love l.p. sheer class.
Harrogatesoul Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Tough one I think - Agree on the Lou Courtney & Sam Dees tho ' A must for any collection - For me ( At the moment ) Leon Ware - Musical Massage ( Incredible LP ) Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man ( Genius all round ) Charles Brimmer - Expression Of Soul ( And it is! ) JJ Barnes / Steve Mancha - Rare Stamps ( Finally bought one last year - ! ) Donny Hathaway - Extensions Of A Man ( The talent , the voice and ' I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know - Quite incredible. ) ATB Rich
Guest Bearsoul Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 DEFINITELY 'SOUL SUPERMAN' & SAM DEES...............ALSO BABY WASHINGTON 'WITH YOU IN MIND' UNITED ARTISTS UK THE CHOSEN FEW 'TAKING ALL THE LOVE I CAN' MAPLE U.S. PACKED WITH ACE TRACKS CHRIS M
Tomangoes Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Esquires - Get on up - Bunky. Compilation called 'Classmates' on Buddah. Motown - Edwin Starr - 25 Miles. (24 hours what a track). Ed
uni ted Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 another one,aretha-almighty fire l.p. ,this could go on and on,cos everytime you see an artists name,you think of your fave by them.but still sticking with soul superman as my top one.
Guest Adrian Posted March 21, 2006 Posted March 21, 2006 Marvin Gaye Here My Dear prob my fave Mav Lp, urge everyone to get this. You kind of forget about the likes of Marvin and Curtis etc when chasing the rare small labels and alike. Each track is good but listen to the lot as it meant it to be and its a 'soul' lp that has'nt been bettered to these ears. Westwing LP is great, all pretty strong, puts me in a good mood. Johnny Bristol Strangers another fella whose lps I think are all worthy of having but this one pips it for me and the missus loves it too which is always a bonus.

Guest WPaulVanDyk Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Jimmy James is excellent, seen him live 3 times and lucky enough i met him once, he actually asked for my CD to be recorded for him as he said it was deleted so wanted a copy lol. I had to send him it in the post how funny is that a recording artists asks a fan for his own cd to be copied
Guest Netspeaky Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Have lots of great LP's but hard to pass Motown Chartbuster Vol 3, so many great Motown Classics, it set me on the road to Soul.

Ged Parker Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Harlem Jons Reshuffle is worth a mention. Full of interesting covers of contemporary soul tunes. Even has a picture on the back of them performing at the Empress Ballroom Wigan before it became the Casino.
jimmy clitheroe Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 a fine intrument-leon debouse,for the track "every fellas girl"
binsy Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Garland Green - Jealous Kinda Fella The Metros - Sweetest One The Monitors - Greetings We're The Monitors Jimmy James & The Vagabonds - New Religion Wilson Pickett - It's Too Late (more R&B but what the hell) & Jackie Wilson - Higher and Higher Jimmy Lewis - Totally involved- great choice Adam, how could I forget that one. Blinding!!!
Guest Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Always liked Terry Callier "I Just Can't Help Myself" on Cadet 50041.....very mellow laid back tunes... Brown-Eyed Lady, Gotta Get Closer Too You, Satin Doll, amongst others. Bobby Taylor "Taylor Made Soul" Gordy GS942, just for that sublime work of art "Don't Be Afraid" The Jaedes "The Jaedes" Athena 6002, for a spell binding version of "Color Him Father" and lastly Spread Love "Spread Love" Sunstar 2901 for one of the seminal 70's soul releases and "Here I Go (Through These Changes) Brett Franklin........(semi-retired)
Paul McKay Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Brett Franklin........(semi-retired) Does that mean you're half asleep Brett?
Guest Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Does that mean you're half asleep Brett? No.....half awake
Guest Adam G Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Jimmy Lewis - Totally involved- great choice Adam, how could I forget that one. Blinding!!! Its an absolute classic lp one of those rare things where every track is fantastic."Thank you" is my favourite to be played out though "treat a lady" is a close 2nd.Every home should have one. As is the John Edwards Aware lp,the track "Exercise my love"=goosebumps galore
Guest dundeedavie Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 gotta say Alice Clark self titled on mainstream .... not a bad track Davie
Guest Posted March 24, 2006 Posted March 24, 2006 Lots of favourites & something i have been buying more of lately, price hikes don't seem to have hit the album market, yet ! But if i was pushed into a corner it would have to be "Artistics - I'm Gonna Miss You", just quality from start to finish ! You could quite literaly play any track at a soul night !!
Larsc Posted March 25, 2006 Posted March 25, 2006 The two albums I still have on top of my list: The Fuzz - s/t (so sweet) Satisfaction Unlimited - Think Of The Children (this one has everything !) Funnily enough both of them are built up around the same theme
