Mickey Finn Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 One of my desert island discs is the criminally underrated "Then came you" by Dionne Warwick, produced by Jerry Ragovoy.

Mickey Finn Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 This sits in the middle of three absolutely wonderful tracks on side A of the album of the same name by Bobby Womack. Many hours spent with this in contemplation: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mickey Finn Posted October 5, 2017 Share Posted October 5, 2017 Jazz pianist McCoy Tyner's 1982 LP "Looking out" featured a few tracks with Phyllis on lead vocals, and this track in particular gets me every time ... great vocals, great musicianship: Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Bbrich Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) I dont think i have heard a sadder song than when i turned over Masters of Soul - Do you really love me to see what the flip was like... I've only played it a few times and then usually have to take it off before the end, its too much... but if you haven't heard it before do play it right thro' at least the once (there are lots of versions of this song of course but i dont think any come over like this one)..
