Pete Eccles Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 You're totally misunderstanding what I meant, what I meant was that I would have listed Bari Track immediately but whenever we've done the topic before, I always list it, so thats what I meant when I said people would get fed up of seeing me list it. Hope that makes sense. Nothing to do with you listing it. I'm understanding you fully, I wasn't listing it as a candidate, I also didn't mean I'm surprised YOU haven't mentioned it, I was surprised ALL the OTHER members that have contributed hadn't mentioned it among all the other classics mentioned, that's all, Hope that's clear now
Popular Post Harry Crosby Posted March 23, 2013 Popular Post Posted March 23, 2013 I`m with Mr Pete Smith on this one, possibly one of the greatest instrumentals ever in my book 4

Harry Crosby Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 oops..pleased to be corrected..have you a label scan? and whats the shoop etc artist same or diff?I don`t have a label scan sorry mate, and can`t remember who did shoop the hoop twine, its the same record though, someone on here will know.
Mike Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 mayfield players considered a classic yet ? if not it should be frantic escape - back in 70s it just sounded ordinary, when revisited it in later years it sounded like a different record, the way it builds etc etc wiser ears? 2

It's the playing on it, they sound demented, really really giving it some. Wonder if there's a long lost vocal somewhere.
Harry Crosby Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) oops..pleased to be corrected..have you a label scan? and whats the shoop etc artist same or diff?Centuries jack 23 is on Cleopatra records. Heres the other version by THE SHOESTRING Edited March 23, 2013 by HARRY CROSBY
Micksmix Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I believe you are correct Michael.(Ian D's on hand with date and time). Stood the test of time,still sounds great
Premium Stuff Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I`m with Mr Pete Smith on this one, possibly one of the greatest instrumentals ever in my book Me too - and the fact it got picked up by Atlantic must say something about how good it is. The local Pameline release has a louder and fuller sound compared to the Atlantic copies Cheers Richard 2
Mike Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 It's the playing on it, they sound demented, really really giving it some. Wonder if there's a long lost vocal somewhere. yep and to me every so often its like they take a side step and then crack on but each time just that bit more frantic - imagine there's a few musical terms that says it better a vocal would just get in the way 1

Fantastic record.
Premium Stuff Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I really like this one - The Soul Partners - Watch Me Now (Sa-Mo) The other side is pretty good too. Cheers Richard https://soundcloud.com/user1502162/soul-partners-watch-me-now-sa 1

Steve Foran Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Has Al Dlory Right on had a mention? Always thought John Vincent had cornered the market in instrumentals. 1

Ik001 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Love instrumentals, thought I was in a minority. Here's an underated one. https://youtu.be/H84-vAoI4gE 1
Premium Stuff Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) How about this for a forgotten oldie? When you play that isn't it "Little Bit Of Soul" not "The Cat Walk"? Cheers Richard Try this for "Little Bit Of Soul" Edited March 23, 2013 by Premium Stuff

Guest Polyvelts Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Keb playing chaumonts - now you've gone at 100 club completely blew me away. 83-84? Asked him for it a few weeks later "sold it" My little girl - mirwood 6 x6
Missing Link Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Oops - that'll teach me to post from YouTube without listening first.
Premium Stuff Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 This one of my favourites and quite hard to pick up in decent condition Very cool, jazzy style Detroit Cheers Richard 2
Autumnstoned Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Has anyone mentioned Emanons Orchestra - Birdwalking? Not too keen on it personally but been spun at the 100 Club last couple of months . Hadn't heard it in about 35 years. 1
Guest east rob Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) ever heard this out? other side is the worst record in the world Edited March 23, 2013 by east rob

Yes!! Play this out when i get a chance,to good response. Pameline of course.
Carty Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 detroit land apples , love that, the thread has got me thinking, where do sounds like spooners crowd , two in the morning , frankie ( loveman ) crocker , ton of dynamite, fit, ? not strictly instrumentals, but could hardly be considered vocals either, both brilliant by the way.
sepia Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 when i was young this was my fave. young holt unlimited / califonia montage / brunswick alsa heard only off kent lp.i could never find a copy then,even tho wasnt dear. my fave now is four bros / cool jerk / carla b-side of let it all reach out...aka four pros but was withdrawn due to wrong group name put on label.cant find a clip & not aloud to put up mp3,note for note same as capitols i think.
Zed1 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Still like this one. Lordy!..... not heard this played out since Wigan.
georgeblackwell Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Jimmy Wisner - Choppin' Around - Atlantic. Barely known by anyone nowadays. Old John Vincent cover up. Incredible. Don't know about a "cover up" always thought it was a known sound - picked one up from Contempo 1971 whilst trying to get a copy of San Remo's - Festival Time which was the biggest Instrumental sound at the time. Was soon overtaken by Cigarette Ashes though.
georgeblackwell Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 How about this for a forgotten oldie? This is not THE CAT WALK it is the other side LITTLE BIT OF SOUL. When this booted in the early 70's they put the labels on the wrong sides and because most people have got a bootleg they think this is THE CAT WALK even Kev Roberts who put this up on one of his compilations mis-titled it. When it was first played at the Mecca by Tony Jebb it was the other side that got played and it is definitely THE CAT WALK - here it is
georgeblackwell Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Here is one I have been pushing for a while now - simply brilliant and a real floor packer in our neck of the woods - plus don't forget The Sounds Of Lane - Tracks to your mind - pisses all over Hey Sah Lo Ney 3

COTTAGE - VOCAL & INST - came out in '76 on Crystal UK - bloody awful mind. I would love to hear the backing track to J Wyatt

Guest mickeyb Posted March 24, 2013 Posted March 24, 2013 Making up time - The Holidays - Thanks to Jerry Hipkiss for the education to a then callow youth. South Memphis - The Memphians - Thanks to Dave T for having the cojones to play this and many more like it. The Gallop - Milton Wright and the Terra Shirma Strings (Tettragrammaton?) - why has no one mentioned this? It's not a dreaded Top 500 is it?
