The Mystery Lights , another New York band signed to Wick Records, are good too although a bit more 60's garage rock than blue eyed soul.

Stick with the early stuff - at least for me their debut album is strongest. Some years back I got a copy of their 1981 "Blue Jeans" album, which stood out alright - horrible lamest of the lame by the numbers funk. That's how I felt about it anyway... 2

I'd definitely recommend the first 3 Chocolate Milk lps for you Jimmy, they're all pretty decent.Theres also a couple of compilation lp's available too,which are 'Ice Cold Funk' & another just called 'The Best Of Chocolate Milk'. Glad you liked the playlist btw ! 1
Jimmy Disco D Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Cheers fellas, I'll probably go for the first first then, I really like those two songs I mentioned. Soulsides, your "New Bell" pick encouraged me to get my Soul Makossa LP out last night, although I had a listen to the fantastic "Nights In Zeralda" which led me onto a more "exotic" playlist that probably isn't quite suitable for this forum. 1
Jimmy Disco D Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 LOL, no, not the snake, even worse..................... jazz. (although I'm not ashamed to say I like The Snake, but I haven't got the Northern soul background so there's a bit less "baggage" associated with it for me) 1
Guest Josep Manuel Concernau Robles Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 Almost a month after my first track - list, here's another totally different according to my feelings at this moment: 01 - "Cookie" - Mongo Santamaria 02 - "La Fiesta" - Chick Corea 03 - "Jamaican Marketplace" - Ramsey Lewis 04 - "Echidna's Arf" - George Duke 05 - "Nautylus" - Bob James 06 - "People Make The World Go Round" (live) - CTI All - Stars 07 - "Vivo Sonhando" - Antonio Carlos Jobim 08 - "Visions" - Luis Gasca 09 - "Deep" - Ritchie Rome 10 - "Bad Bad Simba" - O'Donnel Levy 11 - "Soncere" - Michael Pedicin, Jr. 12 - "Jacob's Ladder" - Incognito 13 - "Adam's Hotel" - Deodato 14 - "Half A Man" - Bunny Sigler 15 - "Reach For The Moon (Poor People)" - Angelo Bond 16 - "Looking For A Friend" - Blue Magic 17 - "Let's Spend Some Time Together" - The O'Jays 18 - "Spy For The Brotherhood" - The Miracles 19 - "Loving Time" - The Dramatics 20 - "You're Not In Love" - Carmen Lundy
Mickey Finn Posted January 31, 2018 Posted January 31, 2018 I'm not ashamed to say I like it either. It's just that I don't Don't see why jazz shouldn't get a look in here. The overlap with blues and soul is big enough. Motown's Funk Brothers were originally jazz musicians playing in Detroit clubs before they were hired by Berry Gordy. The acrobatics of James Jamerson came out of that jazz background. The story goes that Leon Huff's organ solo on MFSB's Kay-Jee was him simply arriving in the middle of the recording session and joining in at the improvised moment. The musicianship of so much soul is top notch and the freshness of so many recorded tunes comes down to that style of playing and the ability to improvise, such that recordings could be done in one or a few takes. 2

Many of the musicians involved in the Philly Soul scene started as jazz musicians: Vincent Montana as a jazz vibraphonist; Bobby Martin with the Lyn Hope Big Band also as a vibraphonist (this combo also included People's Choice lead Frankie Brunson as vocalist and keyboardist), Ronnie Baker and Norman Harris jointly with Eddie Green formed the jazz - fusion group Catalyst, many songs have jazzy ingredients as the one I included in the track list by The O'Jays ("Let's Spend Some Time Together") and, of course, many stuff by Lou Rawls, Billy Paul or Phyllis Hyman.

Guest Josep Manuel Concernau Robles Posted February 1, 2018 Posted February 1, 2018 Hey, Bruv, what a good instrumental "Disco Connection" by Isaac Hayes! I have the vynil album with the same title (credited as "Isaac Hayes Movement") and there's some other good tracks as the mellow "After Five" or "Aruba". Jointly with the double album live with Dionne Warwick ("A Man & A Woman"... what a fantastic cover of "Can't Hide Love"!!!) is my favorite from Isaac Hayes from his ABC / Hot Buttered Soul period.

Thank you Josep, Yes it is a great instrumental I used to play it for a friend who would request it at a Sports Social Club I did dj-ing at in the late 1980's he took his dancing seriously he even turned up wearing dancing shoes, which he still does now when I have seen him at some of the Northern Soul events.... 1

I referred to the ABC period. My favorites are "Shaft" and "To be Continued" from Stax years; the two I have mentioned from ABC and from Polydor years "New Horizon" with the great up tempo "Ménage à trois" and the soulful "It's Heaven To Me". In fact I have practically all his discography from "Black Moses" to "For The Shake Of Love" (passing trough "Groove-A-Thon", "Chocolate Chip",...) but the ones I mentioned are the ones I can hear the whole LP non - stop again and again. A great cover of Shaft is the one included in his "For The Shake Of Love" album (1979, Polydor). And a boogaloo cover by Joe Bataan is also super-groove. Cheers to all.
Soulsides Posted February 2, 2018 Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) Yeah, you gotta love Isaac..so much dopeness from one man shouldn't be possible ! The 'To Be Continued' album is his masterpiece for me..I can get totally lost and absorbed in that record..the production is like some sonic gold type shiz... Just so damn good.

No, it's just the typical sort of stuff that gets played every Saturday night round here but I never record mixes anymore these days ..you've given me the idea that maybe I should though...more drinking time, less fiddling about with records hehe ! 10 hours ago, shufflin said: liking that, funky dancer Yeah,the Mandingo stuff is great , Funky and cool sounding. I picked up the 'Primeval Rhythm Of Life' lp around 20 odd years ago in a charity shop for literally pennies and took it home not expecting anything spectacular and was totally blown away by how good it was...all of the Mandingo albums are terrific in my opinion and the fact that Mandingo was actually the brainchild of the Easy Listening band leader,the one and only Geoff Love makes it even more surprising just how good those lp's are to say the least. The trendy hipsters don't seem to have picked up on these particular albums yet for whatever reason so you can still grab them really cheaply from places like Discogs etc.

Love "The Cheetah" and funnily enough I played it at the weekend too, I'll note 'em down later. Yes, I have all of the albums by Mandingo plus some other things by Geoff Love that I've used for sampling in my own tunes..there's a couple of his tracks that have some very nice drum breaks on them . Drum breaks on records ,now that is a subject very close to my heart, I can happily spend hours chopping ,slicing and looping them to create dusty funked up madness for some intense freestyle sampler jamming sessions ! It drives my missus nuts sometimes but I've explained very nicely to her that this is why Netflix was invented ( she took this rather well I thought under the circumstances) so she can like it or lump it basically hehe.
