Sean Hampsey Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 (edited) Phew, Where did that year go? Exactly 12 months since we did the last 'Top Tips' thread... so here we go again! Here's your opportunity to tip the tunes in your box for future greatness over the next year... or simply list any number that you'd like to recommend to other Soul Sourcers. You might be a DJ with that tasty unplayed, unknown, hardly played or semi-known stuck in the back of your box that you'd love to play... but haven't yet got around to it. You might be a collector, sitting on a tune that you know, if it got into the right hands, could become massive in the next 12 months. It could be an LP track that, for whatever reason, has never been given the recognition it deserves. It might be a tasty 'B' side that, given the right exposure, might just become a monster! No need to post sound clips. Just let us know what you've got that you think deserves a plug in the coming year! As a quick lookback, the Top Tips for 2007 will appear on the next post. So come on. Look at your box and let's have your top tip (or tips) for 2008. Sean Hampsey Edited January 1, 2008 by Sean Hampsey

Cunnie Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Thanks for taking the time to dig up last year's tips Sean. Some interesting reading. Just looking at my 3 tips. 1, Boss Man - You're Taking Too Long - Don't think I heard it played once but still convinced it will have it's day. Quality 60's Soul by non other than Kenny Gamble under a pseudonym I believe. 2, Satisfaction Unlimited - Don't change The Subject - Turned into a monster on the Crossover scene & was even deemed worthy of an inclusion on the Sean Robbins Sunday Soul Selection compilation. 3, Jackie Moore - Do Ya, Got What It Takes - Your old Clifton Hall spin that I tipped for a revival. Did hear it played a few times in the last 12 months & not just by you & me Right then, onto this year. 1, Jimmy Jackson - Footsteps In The Shadows - Buddah. Got 70's Northern monster wrote all over it & can still be picked up for under £10. Just watch it go & then put another 0 on the price. Buy it now. 2, L.T.D. - Never Get Enough Of Your Love - A&M. Another forgotten 70's gem & also still around for under a tenner. Just so nice. 3, The Creators - Just You & Me - RCA. Expect to pay more than £10 for this one as it ain't that easy to pick up & demand seems to be rising. Noticed Dave & Bri Pinches are including it it thier spots just lately. Who put you onto that guy's 4, Dazzle - You Dazzle Me - De Lite. The 'left field' choice. Totally mad Boogie track from 1979 that got a few play's by Sam & Arthur around it's release in 1979. Every time I play it out it always seems to attract interest. Also in demand with the Euro Boogie collectors so not that easy to get now & the price seems to be climbing.
Simon M Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Top pick on the Creators Martin , moves along nicely with some great horns and group vocals .
Sean Hampsey Posted January 1, 2008 Author Posted January 1, 2008 Good stuff guys! So that's just over a dozen! (we managed around a hundred last year). Any more for any more? Need to build up those Wants Lists!
Baz Atkinson Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Played this out myself Baz a couple of times about 2 years ago.... had mixed interest.... Didn't realise it was going up in value or that it was becoming hard to come by.... seems to be Mark had nowt but good feedback re this disc ,saw a battered one on ebay go forover 60us,hope it still is quite acesssible TO BE HONEST,think its a great tune myself. BAZ A
Baz Atkinson Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Always rated this Baz. I believe it's the same guy as Charles Allen formerly of the Bar-Kays. CANT STOP PLAYING THIS SEAN,IT JUST SEEMS TO HAVE SOMETHING REAL SMOULDERING VOICE ALSO,WITH GREAT PERCUSSION. BAZ A
Guest Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 Just love these tunes JANICE SADDLER & JAMMERS - MY BABY'S COMING HOME TO STAY LONNIE YOUNGBLOOD - SWEET SWEET TOOTIE BOTH ON THE EAST COAST SOUL CONECTION CD RELEASED IN 2007 POSSIBLY 2 TUNES OF INTEREST
Ficklefingers Posted January 1, 2008 Posted January 1, 2008 (edited) Great Thread! I recently discovered some of my old notebooks going back to the 70's, where I used to make 'tips' of what I thought would be future biggies... as well as noting who was playing what & where, along with various other snippets of info etc - all interesting stuff, and prompts me to throw a couple of toons into this arena: 21st Century 'Shadow Of A Memory' (Noel) I know Arthur is currently spinning his alternate version acetate of Minnie Jones (which I feel is better than her issued cut on Sugar) but this, for me, has more substance and, I feel, would have more appeal on the dancefloor. 21st Century 'Coming Right Back' (Noel) Flip to the above track, and couldn't be more of a contrast! A great tune in the style of traditional 'Northern Soul'. Stomper from start to finish! From the first instrumental bars, through the distinctive vocals and into the chorus it just grabs you and moves you along nicely in tandem with the infectious beat. Certainly one for the dancefloor. Jimmy Phillips 'She Belongs To Me' (Bumps) A truly masterful and infectious slab of class R'n'B. I rate this so highly!! Deon Jackson 'Nursery Rhyme' (Atco LP) Another R'n'B tune that automatically attracts attention and drags you onto the floor to partake in the delights of it's awesome production, with all you could want from a brilliant dancing record. Lyrics are somewhat 'nonsical' so this could never attract a huge price tag. Although I play it off the album I believe it did find a 45 release on Atlantic. Anthony & Delsonics 'I Never Had A Girl' (Emerge) This is the flip to their brilliant 'Every Time', and is a more 'full-on' tune. Actually the official 'A' side, it's driven from start to finish by a blend of brass and drums with a guitar/drum instrumental break. The music is over ridden by the vocalist telling us how pleased he is with his gal, which contribute to complete this 45 being a dancer's delight. Well, that's something for you all to chew on...

Chalky Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 The Composers-chances going round-complex 3 This has had a bit activation but could do with a bit more imho,one of the many crossover tunes that gets a few spins then is silently put away,great tune imho.BAZ A good choice Baz, I've played this for a few years now when given the right opportunity.

Dylan Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Quite agree, Andy DS was playing this out covered up couple of years ago. I've known what this is for probably about 5 or 6 years now and thats how long it took me to get a copy hence i've said nowt until now. the vg- grade might have put a few off but it plays lovely. and heres a cheapie thats just great C.B Overton "Superstar lady" Shock certainly not an unknown but still worthy or much wider recognition.
Dylan Posted January 2, 2008 Posted January 2, 2008 Quite agree, Andy DS was playing this out covered up couple of years ago. I must have missed that. What was the C/U name ?

Sheepherders Ft Bubba Bailey - If Ever You Needed Me......had a few spins, but will explode this year. Superlatives - Dont Let True Love Die..........already bubbling away, set to gooooooooo. Larry Davis & the Marvels - The Magic is Gone....The Magic is here, get ya hips round this !. Lee Fields - Take me back.......An old 'Abshott' biggie, due to break out all over hopefully. Blade Family-Sweet Dream......Funky, chunky 70's killer.........maybe this year for this ?. Beverley & Duane -Glad I got you.........Kicks thier rare one into touch, with NS dancefloor appeal. Ida Sands - Rescue Me.........Not the second release, THAT MOST ARE FAMILIAR WITH, but the better & harder Shiptown mix, hard as nails, needs reactivation IMO. Fantastic Four - Pinpoint It Down..........Set to take the roof off a dancefloor near you........ Micki Lynn - Sure is Something.......West Coast pounder, slipped under the radar.so far !. Ike Strong - Since i Lost My Baby..........Sacriledge to some, soulful perfection to others..gonna go tho' for sure. Happy New Year Russ

Guest wrighty Posted January 4, 2008 Posted January 4, 2008 i'll go with a couple of funkier tunes (of course) .... leroy clofer 'mr. big man' (rosemont) picked up one myself cheap on ebay early last year, a small quantity then turned up but they were literally snapped up in a few hours, mostly by funk collectors but i still think this has potential to appeal to the soul crowd, and according to adam leaver it went down a storm in the soul or nothing room on NYE Leroy_clofer_mr_big_man.mp3 galaxy 'dance wit me' (marjon) one for the disco/modern boys galaxy.mp3
