ImberBoy Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 The other day I posted a thread on Cal Tjader's brilliant Soul Sauce that was moved for lord knows what reason? Any way I am now convinced that The Soul Source Thought Police are now watching me so I will move swiftly along to the subject of my next post..................... Latin Soul, Cal Tjader's Soul Sauce gives you a real taste of latino vibe and there are others that have "Crossed over" from that genre to Northernsoul. Ricardo Ray - Nitty Gritty is an absaloute peach of a track that I'm sure would make a coma patient's foot tap! Again I have never heard this played at a venue but I would love to see it get some floor time. Shirley Ellis - The Nitty Gritty is an exellent track as well but in my opinion lacks the explosive energy as the Ricardo Ray version and I thin k it was recorded live, which one is the original I do not know? Shirley recorded the track in 1963 and Ricardo Ray in 1968 this would suggest that Shirleyn is the original but I am not convinced as it is a step away from her norm although she was regarded as a bit of a novelty act, any Shirley Ellis spotters out there? My next Latin sound is The Showmen - Our Love Will Grow, Latino? You tell me, but I hear the beat. Johnny Caswell - You Don't Love Me Anymore Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up Gil Scott-Heron - The Bottle Doug Banks - I Just Kept on Dancing Any others or has my ear gone tits up?

Emjaygee Posted November 2, 2007 Share Posted November 2, 2007 There was a period in the mid stafford era when a lot of Latin flavours came into vogue. Some of the tunes listed in that thread seemed to filter around the 100 club Stafford and the rest of the big nighters of that era. Dave Flynn had a load of these at the time, I still have things like Spanish Maiden Tony Middleton, You can't run away from me The Wanderers etc etc. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
