Okay maybe there is a lot more than one, one of my finest moments as a DJ playing this at an all nighter and people, including me, dancing!

And as for Jinny Holliday search out his Man Without Love, not on YT but his finest moment in reducing grown men to a quivering pile of pulp. Tremble your way through every line with both lips wibblinglike a water wheel!

i was about to post that solid solution up, amazing record, and I generally listen to it back to back with this one

 

 

Bloody hell, write out 100 lines. 'I must flip over my 45's'. That's the first time I've heard that Johnson, Hawkins Tatum track, fantastic and even better knowing now that it's on the other side of 'Your love is drawing me closer' which has been in one of my boxes for a hundred years. Doh.

This could go on forever for me.

 

This is possibly one of the greatest, most exquisite love songs ever sung IMO. It takes me back to a shared Christmas present me and my bro David got one year when we were young, on the 'Forever Gold' LP that became a major starting point for me on a road going away from Northern soul and discovering other genres of soul. It's a tune that just chokes me up with it's beauty, and it contains the line "your a positive motivating force within my life". Can't get better than that......or can it?

It's Walter again ... take your pick from 1965 Okeh or the 1976 Chi-Sound recut.

 

Me, I'm not fussed ... just a wonderful record either way. I do listen to the 1976 cut the most though

When I close my eyes and listen to this my head, body, arms & legs feel like they're melting into a puddle on the floor. :D

 

"I did you wrong

My heart went out to play

But in the game I lost you

What a price to pay

I'm crying . . . . . . "

And back to the man against whom all others must be judged.

 

IMHO of course . . . . . . . . .  :D :D :D :D

Mention of Otis, this lament from his protege cuts me up
