My favourite soul track of them all is:

THE EXTREMES - HOW I NEED YOUR LOVE on 4J

What's your favourite track of them all - the one on your mind right now. Of course we will all change our minds by about 5 o'clock .... this track really is perfection though.

Hammy

Mission impossible, but for the sake of joining in......

"No more tears" Anita Baker, incredible vocal performance.

This week it's a slow one. Big Maybelle - If I Had You.

It's an unreleased track from Goldmines Big City Soul 4.

Right at this moment, Barbara Lynn's "I'm a Good Woman" is on permanent repeat inside my head....

Hammy's right though..... come 5pm, could be a different chooon...

Today I have been mainly humming The Chesterfields - You Walked Away !

Twas the last one i was listening to on the ipod, what a tune though !!

Right this minute..?

Olympics - The same old thing.

green onions ...Booker T

Magnetics - I have a girl.......pretty sure this is my all time fave.......I think

Bazza

Fave at the moment is a toss up between:

Argie & the Argettes - You're the guy

&

Sherlock Holmes - Standing at a standstill

Known both for ages but for some reason really into both at the mo.

Simon

David Ruffin-Rode By The Place(where we used to stay)

'He will break you heart' Jerry Butler

Its an impossible choice to make but

Mel Britt : she`ll come running back .. still gets me every time

I Surrender Eddie Holman

At the mo its

Betty Brokes - Funky Funky

FIVE MINUTES - DIFFERENCES

There was an obituary in the Times on Monday for the lead singer of the Olympics.

Forgot his name, but their acceptance on the "fledgling Northern Soul scene" was aknowledged.

played by Ginger.

Come on home...George Alan

Wow, thanks for that! Really good, maybe it's the freacking song that takes out the best of every singer. Still I like more the arrangments of the Chuck's version.

My Baby Washington's personal fave: I Can't Wait Untill I See My Baby's Face on Sue.

Cheers

every things coming up love - David ruffin.. i've been singing it in my head for weeks.. Pure Soul (not when I sing it)

I asked a girl at work yesterday if her Ipod was working ok or if it was playing at the wrong speed...

she said "No its fine why?"

I replied "well it must just be your singing that so out of time then!!!"

She didn't laugh but I did

Today my favourite will be mostly-- Mitty Collier---My Party.

(It could well change by tomorrow)

The one in my brain that i have just heard and thought nice is Bobby Byrd - I Know You Got Soul.

We all know how our likes change from day to day, from new acquistion to the next buy, but among all these tunes flitting in and out of my consciousness there are three constants, three tunes that I can honestly say that I never tire of, they're not big hitters, but God, I love 'em:

The Vontastics "I Will Always Love You",

Mike and the Censations "Don't Mess With Me"

The Four Pro's "There Must Be A Reason"

Makes me smile just typing 'em out.......

Edited March 16, 200718 yr by DelTee

Must be influenced by the nice sunny day here in London town.Warm Weather:Pieces Of A Dream.

For the past few months my absolute fave track has been Candace Love - Wonderful Night on Aquarius. For me it has everything a Northern soul tune should have....(wait for the slings and arrows of soulies discontent to arrive )

Great tempo to dance to, uplifting subject matter, on the cusp of the 60's to 70's sound transition so it maintains the 60's tyle but with the improving production capabilites. IT's a tune to melt the soul of a cold soulie in a cold place eating a huge tub of Catre' D'or.

And its relatively cheap too

Changed my mind from Robert Tanner to Darrow Fletcher - "What Have I Got Now" (Jacklyn)

I need you baby - Arthur Alexander [ Monument ] . Best ,Eddie

Mine's changed today to 'Bud Harper'...'Let me love you' so simple yet gets me everytime !!!!!!! CLASS !!!!!!!

- I just can't think of one - bloody hell!

:angry:

For the past two weeks its been

Bobbie Smith - Walk On In To My Heart

bloody marvellous!

Also

Lou Johnston - Magic Potion

probably not my all time faves but they are both climbers!

All time fave has got to be Ritta And the Tiarras - Gone With The Wind

Or is it.......?????????? Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i dont know anymore................

Edited March 16, 200718 yr by Ollie Lailey

one of.. "Runnin' Back and Forth" Edwin Starr, easily.

Vontastics this is soul and then some top tune,

It reminds me of the Temps in power and performance and a must have record in any soul colection.

One that has got a hold of me at the moment is

Clarence Reed & the Delmiros "sooner or later" Selma.

My choice is not rare, not played anymore (or at least not much) and will most probably be sneered at by all and sundry but it was THE record for me as a 17 year old mod-bod back in the long hot summer of '84 ...I'M SO GLAD - THE FUZZ. Heard it on the 'Keeping the Faith' compilation lp and made a connection with it straight away. All these years later it still brings back fond memories of parties, riding around on my scooter, etc.!

The superb, Paula Parfitt-Love Is Wonderful

Tommorow it will be something else (Vibrating Vibrations-Surprise Party For Baby?) but that's the beauty of having so much great music to choose from.

at this paticular moment tis charlie rich dont tear me down

As others have said, it may well change by tonight, but at present my 2 favourites are Gene Chandler's Without You Here and Black & Blue's Of All The Hearts To Break.

Dont need no doctor....Ray Charles
