Jerry Butler .. Soundfile

[Little-stevie]

Hope to go to see Jerry Butler play live in America next year while i have the chance to see one of my soul gods..

Any nice stories from members about seeing the iceman live.. One day they will all be gone, wanna pay my respect to a real soul hero..

Was searching the net for a soundfile of favourite tune by Jerry called Isle Of Sirens, found a soundfile on youtube listed as Jeery Butler with the impressions but not the version that i have with Jerry singing solo ( a deep soul ballad )... Does anyone have a soundfile please, do many of you know this tune????

regards

Right on here it will be.

Not sure that he ever has been over. When I was concert going regularly in the 70s I certainly didn't get to see him. Would love to before it's too late though.

I've got a review in an old B&S from a certain Richard Searling around 72' when he played a club in Bolton , will try and find it .One of the true greats ..........Best,Eddie

Hi Steve,

In Oct 2007 I got a call from Dave Moore (Theres That Beat mag) who is a close friend. At the time he resided in Florida. He advised me that Jerry Butler, Gene Chandler , The Impressions & Billy Paul were in concert in Tampa all together on the same night.

I flew out for a rather indulgent long weekend. Dave & Bev collected me from Orlando Airport and off we tootled,

getting backstage by arrangement with Billy & Blanche Paul. Billy,Gene & Jerry were perfect gentlemen with us.

Jerry opened with...youve guessed it " Moody Woman"! Following on with "Moon River", "Only The Strong Survive", "For Your Precious Love", "He Will Break Your Heart", "A Brand New Me", & a wonderful rendition of his hit with Brenda Lee Eager "Aint Understanding Mellow" duetting with his lady backing singer.

Im sure you will love it when you get to see him.

Regards

David Ferguson

Its got that killer lyrics " love is blind and desire has no fear" ... " you know nothing about temptation and desires i have in me, and off i lept into the sea"

Pure soul indeed for Mr Nookie from Weston
