jazzyjas Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 "How Long Do I Have To Wait For You"-Sharon Jones-so brilliant Sven Zetterberg also killer! Back in 1996, there was a group called For Real on Rowdy records who had a song called "Like I Do". They were an r&b group like EnVogue. I knew this record was not going to do well because it was retro 60s sounding. I was used to the usual insipid R&B tripe played on TV and the radio. It shocked me that they would even do this record. Of course, we never heard from them again, obviously because they couldn't be marketed. I picked up their whole CD in a $3.00 used bin. I remember thinking that there were a few other decent songs, but "Like I Do" was a stand out track. Is anyone on here familiar with "Like I Do" or the group For Real? I would imagine that they could have been more successful in the UK. By the way Dayo, 'A Girl Like You' by edwyn Collins sounds familiar because the back beat of the song is a 4 second sampled loop of "1-2-3" by Len Barry, with the occasional 4.5 second loop to add in the drum rolls. Also-must give a mention for Lou Pride "Bringing Me Back Home" on the Kent Modern Soul Masterpieces CD. What a great song! I LOVE IT! KTF Jas
Cover-up Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 The Avalanches, incidentally, is fantastic, and I remember positively sprinting down to the shops to buy it as soon as it came out, but unfortunately I think it has to be disqualified from this thread, as it samples something that I'm told got played at the Mecca, can't remember what and can't vouch for the truth of it, but if true it would place it in the category of a cover. The Avalanches album was meant to have the greatest number of samples on any album ever released, I seem to remember. "Since I Met You" has chunks of "Let's Do The Latin Hustle" by Eddie Drennon, which might be the Mecca spin (just a guess), and I'm sure the vocal is Michael Jackson. It's a REALLY cheesy Jackson Five cover of "Why Do They Fall In Love" or whatever it's called... Sample = cover version, hmmm not sure about that since the whole thing is constructed of samples making it more of an original "collage". But let's not open a whole new can of worms...

Also like Prince Phillip Mitchell-One on One, but does that count?
FrankM Posted April 14, 2005 Posted April 14, 2005 (edited) The Maisonettes- HAERTBREAK AVENUE Mary Fox played it on her Northern Soul show on BBC radio stoke and caused ructions. Wasn't it a big mod revival tune? Edited April 14, 2005 by FrankM
