Mike Posted March 9, 2005 Posted March 9, 2005 Following the very highly rated Vol 1 Talk and Sounds of the Grapevine cd releases, good to see that Grapevine has followed up with 2 more top releases in a similar vein(err... should that be vine.. groan) Details below Grapevine - Talk of the Grapevine Volume 2 GVCD3024 Welcome to this second volume of Talk of the Grapevine containing another 24 'Northern Soul' tracks selected by John Anderson and the Grapevine team.

As with Volume 1, this collection features a mixture of acknowledged 'ModernSoul' classics plus a number of lesser-known sides and previously unissued masters which have been rescued from the vaults after gathering dust for so many years. Although the golden days of soul music are long gone, many of these lost or forgotten gems have matured with the passing of time and some sound better now than they ever did. Famous names are featured here alongside undergound heroes and total unkowns, many of whom will have no idea of the belated interest in their old flip sides and flop records. Artists such as Bob Relf, Johnny Moore, Corey Blake, Richard Caiton. Tommy Tate, The Jones Brothers and Tony Owens are well aware of their overseas followings but others disappeared into obscurity or passed away before the unexpected news could reach them. And so we dedicate this album to those who never found out that their music really did mean something to someone after all. 1. Dottie Pearson - A House Made Of Love 2. Bobby Cutchins - Leaving (Radio Edit) 3. The Pro-Fascination - I Want To Wrap You In My Arms 4. Bobby Wayne - Long Hard Road 5. Corey Blake - How Can I Go On Without You 6. Melvin Brown & James Matthews - Love Stormy Weather 7. Johnny Moore - Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow 8. Bill Coday - A Man Can't Be A Man 9. Bob Relf - You're My Kind Of Wonderful 10. Sex - It's You Baby 11. Patti & The Lovelites - Love Bandit 12. Bettye Jean Plummer - You Don't Know 13. The Jones Brothers - Good Old Days 14. Gerri Grainger - Would You Believe 15. Gerri Grainger - Would You Beleive 16. Tommy Tate - Do You Think There's A Chance 17. Richard Caiton - I See Love Girl In Your Eyes 18. Anna Raye - Will You Love My Child 19. Tony Owens - All That Matters 20. Cal Brandon - I Kept On Smilin' 21. C. P. Love - Plenty Of Room For More 22. Premium - You Know You Want To Be Loved 23. Norma & The Heartaches - Nice and Slow 24. The Saints - I'll Let You Slide 25. Ernest Baker - Alone Again
