Mel Torme - Comin Home Baby, Etc..earliest Records Played?
Stuff like "Reet Petite" and "Don't You Just Know It" are late 50s recordings that have been played at northern dos. There must be quite a few others too. Oh, and Richard Berry too!

Your First Exposure To The Modern Soul Sound
Subsequently followed by the three room divide - northern, 70s/crossover, modern - now that I didn't like and things got quite diviisive with factions all going their own way. I was quite happy with the two room divide. Best of both worlds.

Phillip Mitchell
Looks great. A lot of the well known tracks have been out on CD before but there's quite a few that haven't.

New Music ?
In that case, albums by the following artists are usually a safe bet: Anthony Hamilton Jill Scott Erykah Badu Eric Benet Will Downing Maysa Angie Stone (last one (Rich Girl) was great!) Teena Marie (RIP - great posthomous CD - Beautiful) I could go on & on (like Eykah )

New Music ?

Leon Ware At The Hoochie Coochie Club Newcastle
I saw the London gig an agree it was fab. Nice to hear him perform songs recorded by others too like Summer Somethin', After The Dance and I Want You. Did you get some of Incognito as the backing band?

Danny Baker's Great Album Showdown Bbc4 9Pm R&b Tonight 07.02
It wasn’t that bad. Quite reasonable entertainment. If they put real train spotters on there, then most of the general public would’ve been bored. At least a Donny Hathaway LP made it onto the Wall of Sound.

Poll - Your Black Music Preferences - New Questions Added
Yes, that's right Barry. If you've already voted on Q1 but now want to answer the other two, you have to delete your vote and start again. Good poll. Very interesting.

Archie Bell 1000 Wonders Reissue
A bit longer than that I think. As far as I can recall, it was released to co-incide with the 1st After Hours CD which must have been 9 years ago.

Al Wilson ?
I bet it's not as good as "Show and Tell"

Northern At Home V Northern Out And About
It is true. When I walked into the Village Soul do on Saturday, Lenny Curtis was blasting out and it sounded fantastic. It amy be that I hadn't heard it for years or just the first time I've heard it out, but it sounded much better. Btw, Kegsy, Do It To My Mind has always been a great record . Someone will now say that about Lenny Curtis

Village Soul Is Back
