She has an LP as well on HI i think. email at tnoble777@yahoo.com thnx, andy This is the flip to the immortal "Look At The Boy" on US Hi & UK London. Apart from "Here i Go Again" she also had "Pour On The Loving" as a 45 on Hi. There was no vinyl LP at the time (mid 70's) although a Joint CD ame out a few years ago with Veniece "Bluesoul Belles Vol 3" Tracks are: Look At The BoyHere I Go AgainI Love HimYou Ask MeI'm Gonna StayAre You Gonna Love Me?Friends Fallin' In LoveToday I Sing The BluesMa (He's Making Eyes At Me)LonelinessBack To YouPour On The LovingA very worthwhile compilation.

Sean Hampsey I was under the impression that Back To You only appeared on the UK release only Sean ?? Tell me i'm wrong !! BTY is big with the reggae / soul boys out in NY and alot of copies i've seen recently carry quite a price tag. I have got a copy of the CD mentioned if thats any good - £6.00 + p&p. Girf
binsy Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 Just to add that if you like that sort of sound it's worth picking up a few cheapies from Quiet Elegance on Hi. 'Do you love me/ I'm afraid of losing you' is IMO one of the most underated soul records of it's type. There was also a cd by them which came out in about 1989 by Demon. Best Mark

binsy Posted March 27, 2006 Posted March 27, 2006 Hi girth, Yeah I know I get a little carried away with the Hi stuff, but it drives me when I hear people talking about £1000 tunes and they don't even own Quiet elegance records or Dells/Dramatics ' Love is missing from our lives' etc. It would be interesting to make Djs play a set from a box of cheapies now and again, just to get some balance

Guest LeoLyxxx Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 That's why I love ANC so much - how many cheapies do we get thru there Girf Hi records rules, plenty of great cheapies if you just sort out some of the more boring southern-funky crappy tunes on the label but these are sure shots: George Jackson "patricia" "aretha sing one for me" "let them know you care" Jean Plum ....all the named titels Africano "satisfactorize your mind" Majik "back into your heart" Ann Peebles "mon belle amour" Masqueraders "now that i've found you" Ann Peebles "give me some credit" Prince Phillip Mitchell "little things" Otis Clay "jealousy" "the woman don't live here" "if i could reach out" Erma Coffee "you made me what i am" / "anyway the wind blows" Syl Johnson "anyway the wind blows" Loooovely stuff

binsy Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 All good stuff, seem to remember ' Mon Belle amour' getting plays many years back, also remember Ivor playing ' If this is heaven' by Ann Peebles. Love the Philip Mitchell' Little things' I used to play that one down the Village during my 'deadbeat spot' around 8pm before anyone got there
Guest LeoLyxxx Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Couple there I should check as I don't know em....Erma Coffee is my fave of the ones I do. Girf Erma Coffee is in to my ears one of the best double headed ballad 45s there is, just oozes emotion The other day i saw an Oddyssey 45 on Hi, haven't heard that one can anyone tell me what style it is?? best Leo

binsy Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 The great thing is most of the Hi catalogue has been re issued by Demon records. I've had a fantastic 6 volume Japanese vinyl set that I've had for near on 20years. On the subject of the Japanese fans, I think they should be given much more credit. When you think of the fantastic rare Lps such as Tommy Tate - Malaco album, Frankie Gearing, Eddie Giles- Alarm/Murco stuff, Clay Hammond etc. Thanks guys

This reminds me of a Yarmouth story involving Sean Hampsey (who's posted to this thread - Hi Sean!) Sean came to Yarmouth once thinking he wasn't DJing and subsequently had no tunes with him - Cosser tells him he's on at 10pm so Sean panicks and comes to visit me and my infamous £1 US 45's box, which he proceeded to pull out virtually a full sets worth and played them all in his set....................and it was brill! Syl Johnson - We did it, springs to mind as one particular highlight! Cheers Steve Plumb

Syl Johnson - We did it, springs to mind as one particular highlight! Cheers Steve Plumb Hi Steve, I think that says as much about the quality of your excellent £1 box than it does about the standard of my DJing... or does it? Looking forward to delivering more of the same next week and, as always, aiming to impress, particularly as the £1 tunes I acquired from that legendary box are now worth more than a fiver! Joking apart, Syl Johnson was and is magnificent and as good a "Hi" record as you'll ever hear. Acquired as a new release back in '73 and both sides are still in my all time top 20.... along with the immortal Bobby McClure "Hi" side "To Get What You Got" (while we're on the subject). See you both (Steve & Gareth) at the seaside. Well up for it! Sean Hampsey

Derek Pearson Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Yeah I always thought "BTY" was only on her UK London 45 as flip to "Look at the boy". I'd only ever seen or heard of "LATB" as double sided demos on US Hi. Though I seem to think Butch turned up a handful of "LATB" Hi issues a few years ago which he shifted at £40 a throw, when asked he couldnt recall what the flip was. So it was always sort of assumed that "BTY" would be on the flip of a US issue - so now we know cheers Colin. Re Quiet Elegance yeah the double sider mentioned is very good indeed but the choice tune is "Love will make you feel better" on Hi 2263. Gasp shock collector alert - on my Hi 2290 demo copy the label says "Love will make you feel better" but plays "Will you be my man". Ah the wonderful world of vinyl, derek Oh and how can we talk about Hi without mentioning James Fry "Still around", Bobby McClure "Was it something I said" & the mighty Masqueraders "Now that Ive found you".
Sean Hampsey Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Anybody got this or anything else from her except "Here I Go Again" which I already have. She has an LP as well on HI i think. email at tnoble777@yahoo.com thnx, andy While we're talking "Hi" one that (almost) everyone missed Otis Clay 'Brand New Thing' a midtempo groover of the highest order and an early PITCHES fave. Soulfully on a par with "You Hurt Me For The Last Time" and the Hi Rhythm section too!
binsy Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 Hi Sean Just gave the Otis Clay a spin, great stuff. flicking through my records just thought of a few more. Willie Walker - reaching for the real thing, Known Facts - How can I believe in you - Pawn ( Hi recording) And the excellent Al Williams - The Other side of my love- Crajon (Gene Bowlegs miller produced Hi Sounda like)

Sean Hampsey Posted March 28, 2006 Posted March 28, 2006 James Fry - Tumbling Down/Still Around is the best HI 45. hands down. after 23 replies nobody has offered me a Jean Plum yet!! Apologies, we all got carried away. Best (most soulful) thread in ages! If I've a spare (I may well have a spare issue) I'll get back to you! Agree James Fry is a goodie... but the greatest Hi 45 is Bobby McClure "To Get What You Got". No...not just the greatest "Hi" record, but my favourite record of ALL TIME! Sean Hampsey

Sean Hampsey Totally agree on the thread Sean. Has anyone got a clip of James Fry ? Got outbid on the 45 last year and still dont see it around much! Two copies - UK - 1 issue 1 demo sold recently on ebay for 6 and 10 quid a piece. So a great 45 for a tenner ... ATB Rich
Garethx Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 I love the Hi label and it's associates. Many great records mentioned so far, particularly the Bobby McClure 45. The first time I heard this I just shook my head and smiled, as one would when faced with a great treasure. So fantastic you wonder why all records aren't this good: it's a masterpiece. I must also concur with Binsy over the Willie Walker: nothing earth-shattering on first hearing, but once you're hooked a side whose majesty reveals itself more with each play. Although it's quite some claim I've probably played this particular record more than any other over the last five years. Back to Jean Plum and has there ever been a more bittersweet love song than Here I Go Again, a truly exquisite piece of grown-up soul music. We must also not forget the momentous contribution to the label of Al Green, whilst celebrating the lesser known talents such as T99, Teacher's Edition, Erma Coffee, Jimmy Mack and a cast of thousands.
Steve Plumb Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Plumby, not Jean the _ _ _ _ job queen never mind Mr Hampsy's pound spot what about the night the BANDIT struck !!! Oh aye, on a different level, the night the BANDIT struck was a truly awesome sight ...........and what's with the blatant plug for AA el bandido???? ...........love yer 'Ricks Picks' by the way, nearly on a par with me £1 box Cheers Steve
Steve Plumb Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Hi Steve, I think that says as much about the quality of your excellent £1 box than it does about the standard of my DJing... Sean Hampsey Yeah you're right Sean, it does (hee hee) The £1 box is sadly no more as inflation has pushed it up to 6 for £20 but it'll be out in force again next week. Don't forget your tunes this time Cheers Steve
Guest LeoLyxxx Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Oh and how can we talk about Hi without mentioning James Fry "Still around", Bobby McClure "Was it something I said" & the mighty Masqueraders "Now that Ive found you". I did, Masqueraders was on my fave Hi list aswell earlier Also an Al Green 45 that many seemed to have missed is "glory glory" , very good best Leo
binsy Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Love this thread, how could we forget the great O.V. Wright, scandalously underrated, up there with the best. Particularly love ' Without you' soul as it should be, genuinely sounds hurt!
Garethx Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Ann Peebles too. You Got To feed The Fire was one of the first soul records I ever bought and still use it as a benchmark for all that is good in the game.
slimharpo Posted April 2, 2006 Posted April 2, 2006 Hi. I have a copy on UK London Demo and I've emailed you. Let me know whether you want it or not. Cheers.
