Guest Andy BB Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Now don't dismiss this out of hand... Recently I've (re)developed an incredible fondness for Dee C Lee's 'See The Day' I threatened to play it at the last 100 Club/Valatone and my bird said she'd knock my head off (and those of you who know her will know she could). I just put it in my play box for the Brighton weekend (at the alldayer, not the niter) and she clocked me. I maintain that it's a fantastic (and worthy) soul record. So it's up to you the jury... What do you think?

Guest Andy BB Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 Like you I don't give a fiddlers f*ck about the dance floor. Although in my case it's deliberate!

Guest ShaneH Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 would be great to hear the one she did with Guru in the early 90s - 'never no time to play' Shane

Guest Matt Male Posted August 25, 2006 Posted August 25, 2006 I like it but i thought the beat was that of a waltz isn't it? A ballad in 3/4 time. Not trying to be funny btw
Gert Mark Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Class Tune, Class singer and oozes soulful feeling but again its not a dancer. Id go for "shout to the top" the most soulful the punk in a suit ever got.
Guest Simon Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Must admit i've always wanted to play TSC 'Solid bond in your heart', superb soulful pop mod monster or sommat, love the Dee Cee Lee but it's deffo one for playing indoors really although would be a nice little tune to hear in the afternoon, anyway i'd rather hear that than some 1972 Psych record about Elves. Simon
Guest Baz Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 would be great to hear the one she did with Guru in the early 90s - 'never no time to play' Shane Used to have a Guru CD, some brilliant soulful, jazzy, hip hop sorta stuff (is a way to explain it) Think i lent it to a mate and never got it back, it was proberly on that CD. Cheers for reminding me about Guru Shane

What do you think? Time to change the bird, mate if she is trying to influence you djing playlist
Harrogatesoul Posted August 26, 2006 Posted August 26, 2006 Our DC (Ex Mrs Weller or girlfriend if I'm right) is a fine singer in my opinion - ' No Time To Play ' standout track from Guru's fine Jazzmatazz projects. Like him or not anyone who gathers together PROPER musicians is ok in my book. One not mentioned which has had a few plays is her 'Things Will Be Sweeter ' 12 from mid 90s. From the era of the Affair / Act Of Faith Drizabone etc. ATB Rich
Guest ShaneH Posted August 28, 2006 Posted August 28, 2006 guru featuring d.c.lee on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fj4G4Lfo5d0 brilliant Shane

What do you think? I'm with Mrs. BB on this one, mate - dreadful dirge, completely soul-less and barely worthy of a place in your bin, much less your record box... ...HOWEVER: There is a terrific dancer on Dee's "Shine" album (which also includes STD) called "That's When Something Special Starts" - and that's worthy of three and a bit minutes of anyone's time, IMO!

TONE Have a bit of an interesting story about ex wham and council backer. My aunt, whom is only about 48 use to live in london, back in early 80's. She shared a flat with a couple of girls, one being D.C. Lee, though at the time not famous. They all use to wonder what she did, as she kept her self to her self. She would always leave quite late to go to work, dressed shall we say not very conservatively. Anyway wasn't till a year or so later she spotted her singing with wham on TOTP's The record is ok, remember buying it in woolworths as 14 year old school boy. Though my taste has changed alot since then. Reminds me of something dusty, petula or similar 60's pop songstress might of sang.
Guest soul_hull Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 crap girly nonsense. i embarrassingly liked celine dion's 'love can move mountains' - it actually really was a house/garage classic in it's day (or at least the remixes were) - and i remember being out at a club and liking it - this is way before CD got famous like. still think it's not bad for an early 90's garage type number also - does anyone remember the style council's other female singer tracie? she did a song called the house that jack built, and a song i really liked called 'give it some emotion'. i even like the flip 'the boy hairdresser'. she wasn't as sexy as dee c lee though!
Guest the dukester Posted August 29, 2006 Posted August 29, 2006 ID LIKE TO PLAY.... THE SLOWER VERSION OF JACKIE WILSONS CLASSIC.... RITA COOLIDGE - HIGHER AND HIGHER
