Tomangoes Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Although I used to like the vocal more, today I cant stand Joey Dee's How can I forget you on Caneil, and much prefer the old Strut in time instrumental. Any other offers? Ed
Guest Matt Male Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Although i don't agree, most people seem to prefer the instrumental of Michael Washington's - Stay Mine. Maybe it's Michael weedy voice?

Any other offers? Ed I always thought the vocals on "Job Opening" were well naff, squeeky and out of tune, I know there's no instrumental version but maybe there should have been............. Chris L

ZapatootheTiger Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Couldn't stand the vocal to THE HORSE ~ Cliff Nobles (LOVE IS ALL RIGHT)...but I haven't played it in 30 years, so it might have improved (or I might have mellowed)...

Chris L Sacrilege! The vocals have some of the best angst-filled soul this side of the Mason-Dixon line.
Dylan Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 jackie day "naughty boy" fantastic sax break exactly what northern is all about to me but the vocal is terrible.
Epic Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Lady Lady Lady - Boogieman Orchestra Rosemary What Happened - Popcorn Wylie Bari Track - Doni Burdick The Gallop - Milton Wright Breakaway - Steve Karmen All these instrumentals are better than their vocal counterparts IMVHO.
Garethx Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Sacrilege indeed on The Del-Larks! Similarly Love Is Alright by Cliff Nobles is a great record and I consider him to be a cruelly neglected soul singer. I agree with Mulf regarding the merits or otherwise of Liberty on BASF. When you consider it was recorded at Muscle Shoals Sound studios in around '72 or '73 you have to wonder how they couldn't find a decent singer to put the vocal side down; the studio must have been knee-deep in great soul talent in those days. I still have a soft spot for the instrumental side, which is a real belter and stands up very well in its own right.
Guest ScooterNik Posted July 10, 2008 Posted July 10, 2008 Lady Lady Lady - Boogieman Orchestra Rosemary What Happened - Popcorn Wylie Bari Track - Doni Burdick The Gallop - Milton Wright Breakaway - Steve Karmen All these instrumentals are better than their vocal counterparts IMVHO. I hate both sides of "Rosemary..." with a passion normally reserved for The Bloody Snake. Always have and always will. Couldn't agree more about The Gallop, a great record in its own right, doesn't need a vocal line.
Jerry Hipkiss Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 Peter Hamilton Generation - Hey Girl on Jamie, Richards old Doni Burdick "Clouds" c/u (also known by some as Mike Post - Downtown Generation) - vocal sounds like Hermans Hermits!
Jerry Hipkiss Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 ...Tony Turners "(these walls are only) 6 x 6"...
davidwapples Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 isnt there some really naff vocal to elija rocking with soul by hank jacobs that was reocrded in a hotel bathroom or something ?
Steve G Posted July 11, 2008 Posted July 11, 2008 ...Tony Turners "(these walls are only) 6 x 6"... I've never actually heard that one Hippo. Soundclip? Or is it toooooo bad?
