    This Friday is a release day for Ace Records - including in the batch of release are 3 soul 45s that just may be of interest, details, label release notes, audio and such all follow below CITY 089 - DEE ERVIN YOU MAKE ME HAPPY / GIVE ME ONE MORE DAY 'Dee Ervin suffered collateral damage from GRC/Aware’s bankruptcy. He only got to release two mediocre sides on Hotlanta but these recordings match anything he created in a successful career throughout the 60s & 70s.' CITY_089-1-1.mp3 CITY_089-2-1.mp3 CITY 090 - THE MAYBERRY MOVEMENT - I CAN SEE HIM LOVING YOU / WHAT DID I DO WRONG? This pairing was slated to be Event 218 in late 1974, but as no copies have emerged, it can be assumed that the single was pulled. It is hard to know why, but judging by its rarity the Anderson Brothers GSF release of ‘I Can See Him Loving You’ was a commercial failure - perhaps Event didn’t want to suffer a similar fate. This reading of producer Ray Dahrouge’s song is more soulful and vital than the Anderson Brothers which was huge on the Northern Soul scene, but without this take for competition at the time. Maybe the steamy finale to the Mayberry’s version was a bit too much for radio play, but surely the brilliance of the ballad A side would have compensated for that. Their loss; our gain. mayberry-movement-side-a.mp3 CITY_090-2-1.mp3 REPRO 12 - TOMMY YOUNGBLOOD / THE OTHER BROTHERS - TOBACCO ROAD NORTH / NOBODY BUT ME “The Soul Of Tommy Youngblood” 1970 Kent LP had many fine tracks, especially ‘Tobacco Road North’ though it was not attributed to the rightful writer, Jimmy Radcliffe, at the time. The music has been sampled for various hip-hop adaptations, including one by Ghostface Killah of the Wu-Tang Clan, but the original stands on its own and deserves a 7” format. The Other Brothers ‘Nobody But Me’ is another UK Kent exclusive that sold out on its first Kent Select press and is still much sought-after and now expensive. REPRO_12-2-1.mp3 REPRO_12-1-1.mp3 All now available via Ace Records website (tap), and of course various record stores including our very own Source Store - (tap)

    The Ellis Hall Group - 'Those Passing Words' - Super Disco Edits Upcoming quality soul 45 from Super Disco Edits, the actual release date needs to be confirmed but available now for pre-order, see link below Label release notes We are back after a fairly quiet summer. A case of me playing too much golf and just not being able to find the quality i like when releasing new music. But stop the press, after about 7 years of trying we have finally secured this amazing modern soul winner from 1978 by The Ellis Hall Group. Hailing out of Boston Massachusetts the group recorded a show reel for tv music show "Nightshift". This is where we first heard the incredible "Those Passing Words" and straight away knew we had to have the original studio version. Also on the tape was the beautiful "What Will I Do" with Gilles Peterson comparing the vocals to Debra Laws. Ellis Hall later became the main Keyboard player for The Tower Of Power.

    A quick shout about two most recent Penrose Daptone 45 releases Videos and release notes below Johnny Ruiz & the Escapers "Sorry" b/w "Prettiest Girl" Johnny Ruiz and the Escapers offer up two sides of haunting group sounds sure the scratch the itch of doo-wop and soul enthusiasts alike. Adorning the a-side is "Sorry", a stark, creeping, dirge-like ballad with a sparse rhythm track that swings eerily underneath Johnny's sublime lead and the Escapers plaintive harmonies, creating an hypnotic vibe that will have you dropping the needle over and over again. Continuing with the dark vibes but picking up the pace a couple BPMs, "The Prettiest Girl" brings a measure of hopefulness to the tune, evoking the earnest, lovelorn memories of youth. Junior Scaife "When My Heart Beats" b/w "Moment to Moment" On his debut 45, Junior Scaife shows us he's a vocal heavyweight whose prowess on the mic is tantamount to the pen. Backed by house band The Penrose Scholars and co-written by producer, Anthony Masino, "When My Heart Breaks" is a bouncy stepper with feel-good vibes and groove in equal measure, serving up a Brenton Wood-esque blast of sunshine and soul. On the flip is "Moment to Moment" a gorgeous, bluesy ballad with a vocal performance that transcends the trappings of lesser tunes, giving it a depth and serious- ness that takes you by the heart and mind to a place where longing and love reign supreme. Available now via their uk store at £7 each or via a both 45s bundle https://daptone.bigcartel.com/

    The above comment was split off from a news article as per terms of use/guidelines etc to allow site and members to comment on the moderation/admin side So far this month (nov) there has been 10 news articles posted in our news article feature, the articles are either submitted by members (5 ) or posted by the site (5) With member submitted news items, such as new release news, part of the main criteria before approval is are 'they of interest' to people viewing the site, taking in such factors as the promotion , info given, background etc etc I would say that in this case given the thrust and the background, that this was indeed the case here, as in it was/is 'of interest'. We are talking about 'news' items here, not someones personal take of a release, we do offer comments on the news item for that side of things. https://www.soul-source.co.uk/articles/ Regards mike '

    Secret History of Chicago Music - Pastor Mitty Collier A new addition to the most enjoyable 'Secret History of Chicago Music' article series running on The Chicago Reader Website via Steve Krakow THE SECRET HISTORY OF CHICAGO MUSIC Pastor Mitty Collier spent the 1960s as one of the great voices in soul music For 20 years she’s served the More Like Christ Christian Fellowship Church on the south side, but her old life deserves recognition too. Mitty Lene Collier was born in Birmingham, Alabama, on June 21, 1941, the youngest of seven children of Rufus and Gertrude Collier. She started singing in church as a teenager and toured Alabama and Georgia with gospel group the Hayes Ensemble. After graduating from Western-Olin High School, Collier studied English at Alabama A&M College and Miles College. By then she was also singing R&B in nightclubs to subsidize her education, and when she was 18 she made a visit to Chicago that changed her life.

    An article on 'The National' website titled Stuart Cosgrove: 'New' Beatles single brings pop archaeology to fore' may be of interest... Clip and link below One of them had travelled up from Nottingham with an old studio master of a female vocal version of an ultra-rare northern soul record called Burning ­Sensation by an unknown New Jersey soul singer called Robby Lawson. The original song was recorded in 1967 in Jersey City, ­written and produced by an emergent producer called Paul Kyser, on his own personal label. Although no one can be sure, the ­assumption is that Kyser had recorded a male version and then brought an ­unknown female singer into the studio to sing over the same backing track. We may never know who she was. The record was never released. https://www.thenational.scot/culture/23917870.stuart-cosgrove-new-beatles-single-brings-pop-archaeology-fore/

    A recent article on Jackie Payne via The Athens Banner Herald Born in Athens in 1945, Payne grew up singing in his father's gospel choir and learned how to play the blues from Pattman, who rose to fame late in life as a star harmonica player and recording artist. Payne began singing professionally in his early teens, and opened for R&B legend Sam Cooke as part of a group called The Serenaders before moving to Texas and making his solo debut single "Go Go Train" for Jetstream Records. https://eu.onlineathens.com/story/entertainment/music/2023/10/24/rb-artist-jackie-payne-honored-with-athens-music-walk-of-fame-plaque/71293228007/
