Guest rachel Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Old fashioned 50s/60s R&B today... post away...
Guest Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 That's The Way It Goes - jimmy mccracklin - imperial What a great track this is. It got a great reaction when I posted on 'Carms' list a while back and some sidling up to the decks at the Push Bar to see what it was too !
pikeys dog Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 c'mon Steve post a few up... can see you lurking down there...

michael-j Posted April 11, 2007 Posted April 11, 2007 Whats in post 48, 49 and 50? Site won't let me scroll all the way down for some reason. strange... 48 = I'VE GOT THE BLUES - bessie clark - [kenneth 125] 49 = I CAN NEVER FIND OUT - ramrocks introducing the zeniths - [press 2811] 50 = You Never Miss the Water - Billy 'The Kid' Emerson - Vee Jay
pow wow mik Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 brilliant selections Bongolia, Monitors is great. Remember the Blues Brothers doing a version of that Linda Hayes track on one of their live LPs! I used to love their LPs when I was a kid, they knew their stuff - versions of messin with the kid etc.
pikeys dog Posted April 12, 2007 Posted April 12, 2007 if anyone wants a copy of this I have a Mint- Store stock copy of this somewhere going spare... £25 inc P+P
michael-j Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 LOL.. nice one bongolia..Little Richard basically knicked this for "Slippin and Slidin"....theres an interview with Marie Knight and she says 'Richard was a great thief! yeah, this is the first version, then Bo did it again after LR's version - on Ric ('Baby I'm Wise') which is probably a bit better known
Guest Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 yeah, this is the first version, then Bo did it again after LR's version - on Ric ('Baby I'm Wise') which is probably a bit better known Its great to finally hear it...I know of both versions but for some reason have never in all these years heard the Ace version. I think it got booted on Ace 45?
Denbo Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 It's not... only came out on a Japanese LP. :o) So what's the label of the Japanese Lp?
Rbman Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 that would be telling... One that plays like putty...well it did at Prestatyn on Saturday night
pikeys dog Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 One that plays like putty...well it did at Prestatyn on Saturday night Don't understand this phrase... care to elaborate?
Rbman Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Don't understand this phrase... care to elaborate? Well on the punters side of the speakers it sounded very distorted....and i remember you having to tweak the gain on the mixer so I guess the set up didn't like the disc.....
pikeys dog Posted April 13, 2007 Posted April 13, 2007 Ahh I see... Yep, mixers weren't set up for LP tracks, so gain would have had to go up... also LPs don't tend to be mastered with as much bass as 45s. When i do my final sound check at Middleton - (known as the first half hour) I tweak the system, to ensure that tracks that aren't well mastered can be played without sounding like a sack of spanners. Trouble is at Prestatyn, it wasn't my place to fiddle with the sound... even if I was able to... because as you are probably well aware, I was very, very, very drunk at the time.
Guest Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 99 1/2 Won't Do - della reese - rca Nice to see this up, heard it on a sales cd a while back, very nice.
Guest Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Bongolia, some really nice tracks there! Especially like the Monitors and Big Lucky.....
michael-j Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 (edited) Bongolia, some really nice tracks there! Especially like the Monitors and Big Lucky..... cheers, were loads of stock copies of the Big Lucky around recently, but never heard anyone talk about it or play it though. it's Big Lucky Carter with Ann Peebles (i think) shouting in the background, a late 60s Willie Mitchell production. The Monitors is a 'Fools Paradise Favourite', i thought you might have heard Rex play it. i love the more rocking/rock'n'roll/doo wop stuff and not many people seem to - it's too R'n'R for soulies and many mods, but too soulful for the R'n'R/rockabilly types.

Michael Oh is it? I must have missed it on Rex's. I've just managed to find myself a copy, so thanks very much for that! I Love all that sort of stuff. I'll post some sounds up a bit later.
Guest Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 I wonder how many records The Olympics "Western Movies" influenced ?
michael-j Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 I'm Gonna Put Some Hurt On You - raymond lewis - instant first of three New Orleans sides, could listen to this stuff all day...
michael-j Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 Oh is it? I must have missed it on Rex's. I've just managed to find myself a copy, so thanks very much for that! that was quick! took me a couple of months to find a copy. can you have for look for everything else on my wants list then?
Guest Posted April 14, 2007 Posted April 14, 2007 that was quick! took me a couple of months to find a copy. can you have for look for everything else on my wants list then? Certainly! I mean, If I must .......
Sebastian Posted April 15, 2007 Posted April 15, 2007 I absolutely love this! Has got both Edgar and Johnny Winter playing on it as well, those guys sure were productive during these years.
Denbo Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Bag O' Shite Parry! Take no notice Mik, I think it's great!!!
Guest Rowly Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 Nah just kiddin Mik! Listened to it 4 times mate..... IMO nice enough - (It it were a woman I wouldn't kick her out of bed! ) - but not earth shattering.
pow wow mik Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 didn't really think it'd be your sort of sound at all Rowly so that's OK, sounds good loud and a little faster.
Guest Rowly Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 didn't really think it'd be your sort of sound at all Rowly so that's OK, sounds good loud and a little faster. That the one you were on about earlier over on modculture Mik?
pow wow mik Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 That the one you were on about earlier over on modculture Mik? aye, it's a good tune, will sound good out, if I can get a good loud pressing done of it. Thought it'd be too clippety-clop for you, but you can call me slow-jive-Clive!
Guest Rowly Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 First 10 seconds are brill.... (just before the vocal kicks in!) Just listened again -Definitely don't dislike it - It is very good no doubt there. As you say a bit on the clippy clop side of things for me to get really excited by it perhaps but i've heard far far far far FAR far far worse things played out and be big! No you're on a sure fire winner with that. Go down a storm with the mods alright.....
pow wow mik Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 . Go down a storm with the mods alright..... sound. where do they go?
Guest Jean-Marc Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 all night long c/u - c/u ? really ??? Great choices of tunes lots of favourites
michael-j Posted April 20, 2007 Posted April 20, 2007 c/u ? really ??? haha, no idea if 'known', imagined it was but couldn't see it mentioned from a Google search, and as there are stock copies at a certain big US dealer's site i didn't want to piss off the friend if it wasn't well known because i'm nice like that... great 45, both sides, love the fuzz bass
