Tomangoes Posted February 13, 2019 Posted February 13, 2019 No offence to anybody. Seem to recall Sam was nuts on this: A class track motown failed to put to vinyl in my opinion.. Ed 2
Polo Posted February 18, 2019 Posted February 18, 2019 Sam was the first to play the de lites lover remember going up to the decks to ask him what it was got to be one of his best

macca Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Not because it’s a particularly great record, but an abiding memory I have of the man is with Margaret Mandolph’s Something Beautiful, when he used to play the intro twice over ‘cos it was incredible’... grinning to myself now just thinking about it... I’ve watched him two or three times in the last few years over here and he rocked the joint. Every time.
Eddie Hubbard Posted February 19, 2019 Posted February 19, 2019 Packing Up - Damon Fox .I think he discovered it along with Arthur Fenn .Its hard to think of a more out and out “ Northern “ record ,and what an intro .Think he traded it with Richard Searling as part of the deal to get Larry Houston ( Top Cat c/ u) and ZZ and Company “ Get ready for the get down “ .
Speedlimit Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Johnny Hampton not my girl class detriot . Sam as been a big influence on my musical tastes along with searling .butch .Ken. guy. Mick h .Andy Dyson and a few others. And in general what Sam plays now the rest usually end up playing as oldies. Remember when he first played flame & king .what's this shite folk used to say now every oldies dj hammers it to death. Long may Samsung influence reign
Speedlimit Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Wanda Mcdaniels" Gangster boy " class ohio sister soul .not your stereo type northern or modern .left field oddity pushing the boundaries typical Sam

Guest Soulatthedale Posted February 20, 2019 Posted February 20, 2019 Not sure if Sam spun this first, but distinctively remember him playing it at Yarmouth weekenders in the mid 90s, love it.

Mal Mal , the handful of Charm City records were all released in or around '79 ... therefore unlikley to be an Ian Levine / Mecca one would think ...

I agree I am a firm believer in credit where credit is due but to give someone credit when it isn’t due diesn’t sit right. Many Djs have played records they didn’t discover but we dont heap praise on them. 3
Hill868 Posted February 21, 2019 Posted February 21, 2019 Always been a big fan of Soul Sam, has been playing and breaking loads of superb sounds over the years, but what about HIS WORST RECORDS - the Candy Cartoon Carnival springs to mind, and the horrific " Hearbeat" - Bill Purcell !! (And yes, all the top DJ's have played a few dogs). 1

Long may Samsung influence reign First time I heard Johnny Hampton was in Wigan Casino mid 70's when Richard Searling played it alongside Ronnie McNeir. I was very impressed! Sam and Richard had a lot of the top class rarities of the time! Edited February 21, 2019 by Guest
