THERE'S GOOD STUFF THROUGHOUT THE LIST! DON'T STOP READING!! FIRST SEVERAL ARE HOLDOVERS FROM PREVIOUS LISTS; HIDDEN GEMS ABOUND FROM START TO FINISH!!!

1. BOBBY FOSTER, "Where Do You Go"/"I'm So Glad"...All-time great soulful crossover...VG++...30

4. THE HOLIDAYS, "All That Is Required Is You"/"I'll Keep Coming Back" (instr.) (Revilot)...Dark and soulful with great falsetto lead vocal, hard drums, and folk-funky acoustic guitar, glaringly George Clintonesque in its off-kilter beauty...one of the toughest on the label; doesn't really turn up in Detroit (let's just say I've found more copies of Jackey Beavers in the past five years than of this one)...VG+...125

7. "EMANUEL LASKEY," "You Better Quit It"/"Don't Lead Me On Baby" ("Thelma" 115)...Quote marks because it's an early-90s boot of unreleased versions of these songs, and not clear it's Laskey singing...great Detroit soul regardless...M-...20

10. FREDDIE TERRELL, "Soul Know How to Make Music"/"Respect Yourself" (Shout)...Highly recommended funky dance-floor destroyer which introduces the instruments one by one, building from just hand-claps and congas to a full frontal assault punctuated by stinging distorted guitar..."If you leave, don't you go far, Freddie Terrell gonna play his guitar!"...M- stock, 100...M- white promo, 125
