Westender Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 4 hours ago, Jaco said: Few more from me. Perhaps some leaning towards ballads rather than deep, but often on my playlist nevertheless. Roy Lee Johnson - Take me back and try me Johnny Baker - Accept me as I am Cashmeres - Ain't no coming back Fred Parris and the Restless Hearts - Ain't no use in crying Little Royal - Jealous George Jackson - Macking on you Eddy G Giles - Love with a feeling Elevation - Love won't pay the bills Cicero Blake - Sad feeling Spoilers - Sad man's land Fantastic track. Great vocal but boy those Muscle Shoals players were something, weren't they? A few more to consider When she touches me - Rodge Martin Another mans woman - Laura Lee Oh what I'd give - Tommy Collins Just a touch of your hand - Al Gardner You hurt me for the last time - Otis Clay Asking for the truth - Reuben Bell We gonna make it - Roger Hatcher Anyone but you - Barbara West Mr Independent - Soul Twins Easier to say than do - Betty Lavette I want to be free - Connie McGill & the Visions 3

Still Diggin Posted August 27, 2016 Posted August 27, 2016 5 hours ago, Man from Soul said: and this. Top quality group. Two members were in the Glories, Mildred Vaney and Frankie Gearing, Gearing cuting some great deep soul, not only on her beal street LP but also 'Tears on my pillow' for the Bound sound logo in Florida. Lois Reeves was also a member, formerly of Martha reeves and the Vandellas. An excellent choice. Andy 1

Roburt Posted August 28, 2016 Posted August 28, 2016 (edited) Those old cheapie Hi related CD's were put out by Demon Records, they didn't have extensive sleeve notes but the music they contained was fandabbydozy ... they still have copies of em on Amazon BUT they're not cheap anymore (used to cost around 4 quid each for 20+ tracks).

DeltaSouth Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 I've seen Irma Thomas, Barbara Lynn, Percy Sledge and Ray Charles perform live in honky tonk small country bar venues, decades ago. Also Allen Toussaint while in New Orleans back in the 70s. He was awesome. Same with James Booker and many others... They were all very good. I tended to like funk more, so I really liked seeing the original funky Meters.
