Interesting one this.After 30+ years with the tunes I find the instrumentals more refreshing - seems with a vocal you know exactly what's coming but with instrumentals the odd piano tinkling or rogue horn can pop out of the record even now which keeps ya on yer toes!!

One's that do it for me (so many)

Al De lory Right On

Earl Wright Thumb A Ride

San Remo Strings Festival Time

Mike Post Rhino

George Lemons Orch. Fascinating Girl (hauntingly off key or genius - you choose!!!)

Played San Remo at the weekend and it's obvious how Motown got rattled at Ric Tic's threat to them when you hear sounds like this.

love um or hate um, personally love um!!

chaumonts - now youre gone awesome!!!

mike vikers - on the brink

hank johnson - lost love

dogs - soul step

billy arnell & sparkles - tough girl classic!!

5 of a kind - the other side

Good shout - Patrick Bradley.

Ok - I like one. But then again I prefer the vocal. If there was no vocal I would like the instrumental.
