Guest kev such Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 (edited) George Smith "I've had it". For me this song epitomises SOUL music. You can hear the pain in his voice, well I can anyway. And thanks to Coops, Johnnie Taylors "Poor make believer". Had to get a copy for Karen after she heard Mick play it in one of his spots a few years ago. She crys everytime I play it at home for her.

Guest MBarrett Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 This is quite light-weight and poppy but for me Cal's voice turns it into something else. Her voice and body language are saying "whatever" but you know inside she's screaming!! When I think of one relationship break up - where to keep my dignity I had to put on a brave face - this punches me in the solar plexis, send shivers down my arms and tears into the corner of my eyes. (a nice review by Steve over on Motown Junkies: https://motownjunkies.co.uk/2012/09/14/528/ )

Guest Dave Turner Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 No matter how well known or how many times they've been covered I always come back to these two original powerhouses of soul music.

Pete S Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 Nice one Pete. Like quite a lot of Freddie Scott's stuff ... so underated by too many Yeah I'm surprised how many people don't know "Where does love go", I put it on a podcast a couple of years back and loads of people asked after it. Well three or four did. It is great though.

"Change Is Gonna Come" just makes me shudder James Carr - "Dark End Of The Street" .... soul perfection https://youtu.be/VR6BkppSGNc My favourite record of all time .
Chatty Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 The theme from Joe 90. It brings so many emotions, anger, sadness, disbelief, the yearning for what could have been, if only.... 2
Rowan Posted February 6, 2014 Posted February 6, 2014 and probably the one that really pulls my heartstrings in all directions

Margie Joseph - Never Can You Be, just brilliant.. above are my top two deepies, well pretty much.. Mary Love - Baby I'll Come, initially on the Kent LP of course in the 8ts, but when Mary sang the extended song at Kent records anniversary, Liza and me were in Heaven!! Larry Williams & ATS Express - Doing the Best You Can with What you Got, LUSH production!! and DEEP!! Randy Brown - I Was Blessed The Day I Found You, Utter Heaven this!!!! both versions Millie Jackson - If Loving You is Wrong, I Don't Want to Be Right... pretty new to me, but it stirs something strong.. Rhonda Davis - Long Walk on a Short Pier, forever Alex in Melbourne's track, she used to play it on a Radio show we co hosted in Sydney, absolute tugging here.. Carla Thomas - I've Fallen in Love with You - Big old TUG!!! and again...Lol Booker T Jones - The Best Of You, just brilliant track, lazy, perfect lounge back track... good place to be.. Darrow Fletcher - (Love Is My) Secret Weapon, the TUNE in our Car... made better after hearing Darrow sing it live...
