Pete S Posted March 17, 2013 Posted March 17, 2013 Well folks I think this may be the last in the series of The Thinking Man's Oldies. That's 8 volumes of top quality Northern Soul which I think stand really well together as a series. I think my favourites on this episode are the first and last tracks: Ducky & The Glo-Liters super rare Over And Over, and the truly uplifting Love Let's Try It Again by Silky Hargreaves. Inbetween, a mixture of uptempo dancers and beat ballads including a nice unissued version of The Sparkels Try My Love by Norma Jenkins (supposedly recorded for Motown). Could I just take this opportunity to do a bit of free advertising and say not to forget that I do a list of Northern Soul originals every week, coming up are the likes of Frankie Crocker, Lainie Hill, Marsha Gee, Marion Stewart, The Flairs etc , if you'd like to receive the list just send me a message making sure your own email address is on there and I will subscribe you to the mailing list. Back with some reggae later in the week, cheers, Pete DUCKY & THE GLOLITERS - OVER AND OVER ERNESTINE EADY - THE CHANGE ARTHUR ALEXANDER - KEEP HER GUESSING THE FLAIRS - YOU'VE GOT TO STEAL IT LITTLE FRANKIE LEE - I'VE GOT TO COME BACK HERB WARD - STRANGE CHANGE LITTLE JOHN - HEART BREAKING TIME CLAUDE HUEY - WHY WOULD YOU BLOW IT GEORGE BYRD - I'M AVAILABLE LIFE - TELL ME WHY THE PARAMOUNTS - COME GO WITH ME JIMMY SEALS - THE YESTERDAY OF OUR LOVE EDDIE DAYE & FOUR BARS - GUESS WHO LOVES YOU FREDDIE NORTH - THE HURT PATTI & THE EMBLEMS - IT'S THE LITTLE THINGS PATTI AUSTIN - SOMEONE'S GONNA CRY PEG LEG MOFFETT - THE SHOCKER ROGER HATCHER - SWEETEST GIRL IN THE WORLD JACKIE BURNS & THE BOW BELLS - I DO THE BEST I CAN THE SOUND MASTERS - LONELY LONELY ENTERTAINERS IV - GETTING BACK INTO CIRCULATION THE SHEPARDS - LITTLE GIRL LOST THE HYTONES - BIGGER AND BETTER JONES & BLUMENBERG - THE RIGHT TRACK NORMA JENKINS - TRY LOVE ONE MORE TIME EARTHA KITT - THERE COMES A TIME ART GENTRY - MERRY GO ROUND APRIL, MAY & JUNE - HE WENT AWAY THE CHESTERFIELDS - THINK IT OVER TOMMY DODSON - ONE DAY LOVE BUNNY SIGLER - FOR CRYING OUT LOUD ROGER PACE - THE MINUTE MY BACK WAS TURNED DUSTY WILSON - IT'S GOING TO BE A TRAGEDY THE TRENDS - NOT TOO OLD TO CRY SILKY HARGREAVES - LOVE LET'S TRY IT AGAIN https://www.mixcloud.com/mayfairmenthol/the-thinking-mans-oldies-8/
Geoff Posted March 20, 2013 Posted March 20, 2013 Thanks for posting all of these Pete. Loads of tunes I didn't know. And the MP3 is the right size to put on a CD. Thanks again.
