Russ Vickers Posted March 11, 2007 Posted March 11, 2007 I really like some of the slightly more funky 7ts/8ts tunes that are coming thru these days Ellipsis/Ice/Mixed Emotions etc etc. I dont like straight up funk its not really my bag.........but if it has a good soul vocal & its not too syncopated then Im all for it. Got me to thinking that over the years there have been some fantastic 7ts tunes played on the scene, but other than the really obvious, we dont seem to talk about these as much as the 6ts tunes. I was listening to Jobell and the Orchestra De Salsa - Never Gonna Let You Go - Jan & I think that it really stands up to todays more recent 7ts/8ts discoveries, what do you think ??????? What are your favourite forgotten 7ts/8ts dancers...........no crossover kids, staight up dancers. BTW I cant do sound files so would appreciate it if any one could add a sound file of the Jobell for me, thank you. Russ

Sebastian Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 I'm Gonna Get Your Thing (Get You) - lee harris - forte 16047 refosoul Here's an alternative version of the Marva Whitney tune, with different lyrics and vocals by Lee Harris instead. I think the Lee Harris take on this backing track is the best one out there, it was re-used at least 5 times by different artists on the Forte label. Lee Harris put out a tune called "I'm Gonna Get You" on SWAN under the name of Leroy Harris which has got the same lyrics as in this clip but a very different backing track.
Sebastian Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 I'm Gonna Get Your Love - charles jackson - capitol 16048 refosoul Sounds very good when played next to King Tutt "You Got Me Hung Up". A bit tricky to pick up on 7" but not expensive.

Sebastian Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 Both Cecil Lyde and Jewel are MONSTER tunes in my opinion! Especially Cecil Lyde is on the "underplayed" side of things. Still haven't managed to locate myself a copy of the Jewel 45...

Russ Hiya Russ, Was gonna put up soundfile of Jobell up for you but it's already been done. The track has certainly 'got it'.

ATB, Neil Jones Outstanding tune Neil.............anyone have a current price for this pse & availability (need one.anyone ???). Big thanks to everyone posting on the thread, some great tunes, you could do an awesome set from some of the tunes posted. Please keep em coming, real interesting stuff & as already observed earlier a lot of this stuff sounds sooooo fresh now. What about Deliah Moore on Middle earth, fantastic fogotten Mecca tune ( need one of these too ). Sorry to be a pain in the ass, but can anyone post a sound file, this beaut definitely has loads of spins left in it. Im sure that there are other SS members who have an opinion of the relevance of these tunes today & also there own favourites, so lets hear them guy's n gal's. Would you enjoy a set of this kinda of up tempo 7ts/8ts in the main room at a Nighter ????..............I think I would TBH..........not all night but either mixed in or one or two DJ's that play this kinda thing thru out the night would be good.

Russ Ronnie Stokes. Think the recent copy on Manship's went comparatively 'cheaply' - about £125 (?) - has been known to go for twice that I was toying with selling mine recently as I did a re-edit to 'fix' the dodgy intro - and fit it on a 7" . Memories of Deep Funk for me in this one - we were pretty spoilt in the last hour with stuff of this ilk in those days Our lad Peter plays that Deliah Moore sometimes - magnificent record that one Edited March 12, 2007 by J-Brew
