  1. Pretty good selections by your man there. The Catalinas sounding very white and poppy but still has that northern feel
  2. Not one for the dancefloor but I'm loving the Lady Wray CD - Queen Alone. Those of you that like that Daptone retro sound will love it.
  3. Lots of fantastic tunes on this thread. One yet to be mentioned is Ben E. King - Gettin' To Me.
  4. I think they are some great records in there. A surprising amount of crossover/modern too. I know there has always been some big ticket records of that ilk, but is more money being spent of them now? There’s quite a few I don’t know in that list but think the rest would actually make a good playlist for a night out.
  5. The Dynatones – Fife Piper has got to be the worst ever. Some bad records have grown on me with age but I still can’t stand this at all.
  6. Far too young. RIP. He made some great music.
  7. Did anyone like the recent Maxwell CD? Seven years since the last one and it was disappointing overall. Some good moments though like "All The Ways...."
  8. As Mark quite rightly said, it's very soulful. It also includes some fantastic inspired cover versions of Stop On By and Turned Onto You. Gift of Love is my favourite tune of the year so far. This CD and his previous masterpiece, Eclipse, are arguably the best two of the decade so far. And I don't even really like house music these days
  9. it's been a good year in terms of solid CDs that are very good all the way or most of the way through. I've particularly enjoyed Regina Belle, Anthony Hamilton (brilliant!), Charles Bradley, Zo!, Goldswagger, Kindred The Family Soul, Frank McComb and Shaun Escoffery. Some great reissues or compilations such as Garland Green, Alton McClain & Destiny and The Wonder of Stevie Vol 3. The winner, by far, is the fantastic double CD from Louie Vega. Absolutely unmissable and is a work of creative genius imo.
  10. It was great. His current CD is one of the best I've heard this year.
  11. It's playing in Hackney soon
  12. Excellent. Well done lads!
  13. Disaster. Some much good stuff in those archives. I may have to join Facebook
  14. RIP Billy. Bring The Family Back still sounds as good today as it did the first time I heard it.
  15. Low in value, high in quality. My fave Stephanie Mills track. Personally I always play the 12"
  16. The O'Jays is also on A Cellar Full of Soul CD compiled by Richard Searling https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cellar-Full-Soul-Various/dp/B0000247SA
  17. Dobie Gray? Destiny, Charger, Inferno, Goldmine 7s, Outta Sight, others?
  18. Has it ever been released on a CD?
  19. Not odd really since it featured in an Adidas advert a few years ago with David Beckham in it.
  20. Rose Batiste "Hit and Run". The best record Motown never made
  21. That is hilarious
  22. Surely there is such a thing as northern soul artists. Eddie Holman, JJ Barnes and Lorraine Chandler for example?
  23. Alexander O'Neal surely.
  24. So was I. I can only remember bits of it. It was my stag weekend.
