Dave Thorley Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Just read the tread about the Bobby and Patti LaBelle track and also remember recently someone on another tread said he just didn't get all the fuss about Womack. So lets convert all the non-believers A one artist tread could be thin but in this case I sujest not. Let be having you fav tracks, sound files, and memories of see him, hearing tracks played out etc. Let the conversion begin. God with a guitar on one hand, and a man with a dark side. I'll kick it off with a few tracks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Eddie Hubbard Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) Bobby's probably my all time fave Soul man , here's a personal fave ""Only Survivor " from his " So many rivers " set on MCA . Probably one of only a few Soul records to feature a banjo , saw him sing this live at Hammersmith Odeon 1985 - unforgettable !!! Best ,Eddie Mp3 deleted.

Eddie Hubbard Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 (edited) This is probably my favourite Bobby Womack record [ along with Harry Hippie ] .

Bully Boy Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 So Many Class Tunes from the Man! UP THERE for me has to be - Give It Up, Something For My Head, How Could You Break My Heart. etc, etc, But the best track IMHO has to be the sublime "I'm Through Trying To Prove My Love For You" taken of the Facts of Life album.................Pure Class and then some!

Top drawer stuff and, in my opinion, an artist that has a body of work that most people should find something in to enjoy. I saw him at the International in Manchester in the early 90's - probably about 300 in attendance. They literally had to drag him from the stage at about 1.00am in the morning after 3 hours of his full repertoire. Possibly the best gig I have been to!

Guest Darks Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 More Than I Can Stand - bobby womack - minit Love Bobby in this mood I do! steve Fcking brilliant, but prefer the live version (just) with "the preacher" bit first. If I was to chose one and sadly I can't up load it, it would be "Take Me" on UK Minit. Awesome "crossover". Great thread. I of course, have others but gotta work.
