    That LF System song has totally destroyed the Silk original. They should be prosecuted. not only for stealing another song, but also what they've done to it.

    Dionne's "Meant To Be" is brilliant.
  3. Daved
    Some very good CDs there.

    According to iTunes and Spotify, Where Would I Be Without You came out in 2018 or is that a mistake? Even if it is, the point remains for Sir Wick and Elaine Stepter who's only had some recent interest as they've come out on a 45

    Case in point is that Kim Tibbs came out four years ago to little acclaim.

    I was referring to Bobby Thurston and Very Last drop, which isn't what the OP was asking for. Ignore me
  7. Daved
    It was released on a UK Epic 45 when new

    So Pure is very good. Like it a lot. Laville is still on top form.
  9. Daved
    And isn't one of those that have never appeared on a CD? Not to my knowledge anyway.
  10. Daved
    Yeah, it was £450 12 months ago when I looked. Massive tune at These Old Shoes

    Always thought My Love's Just For You was the best track on the LP. I'm surprised it didn't become an instant anthem.
  12. Daved
    Good question
  13. Daved
    I think it's terrible too. Doesn't resemble soul music at all.

    RIP Syl. Lots of great songs to chose from

    I was at that Teena Marie gig too, which was fantastic. Sadly her last ever UK performance.
  16. Daved
    I haven't been to see a gig but have been to the bar on another night. I think it's quite a small venue so don't think you can go far wrong.

    Some of that stuff was very big down south at the time of release when it wouldn't have made a northern soul do. NS has become a much broader church since and consists of all sorts of sub-genres. Even it only gets a NS spin 30 years later and some folk get to hear it at an NS event, it gets tagged as NS. Also, record sellers love to add a NS tag to it, because some daft folk will pay alot of £££ for something which, sometimes, is around in big numbers.

    I think Garland Green beats both of them (amongst others)
  19. Daved
    Is that the first CD appearance for the Mel & Tim track?
  20. Daved
    Thanks for that. I've enjoyed all those films and am really looking forward to the Aretha Franklin movie. There's been many rumours of an Otis Redding film over the years and I'd love to see that done well.
  21. Daved
    Yes it's an original, co-written by Beverley herself. I like it too.
  22. Daved
    Thanks both. Mickey, yep lots of other good stuff out there too. I enjoyed the Will Downing and Kim Tavar albums too. THere's so much great UK soul out there at the moment and my mix has mostly UK acts, which wasn't deliberate. I dodn't bother with the Sheree Brown after hearing the first single. Mal, yes quite. I'd like to see her wear it live

    Now that we've finally reached May almost after a seemingly never ending lockdown, I was thinking about the great music I've enjoyed at home so far this year. Some of it is brand new like Myles Sanko, Stone Foundation, some released on a 45 for the first time like the wonderful D.C.R., Sean Oliver, Natasha Watts, some remixed like Teena Marie and Incognito and others previously unreleased like Phillip Ballou. None of them played out loud and live at an event. Hopefully, it won't be much longer.

    I've had to listen to this a few times before I really appreciated it, but this a really classy CD from beginning to end. Although I knew the Isaac Hayes track from the Sweet Taste of Sin CD from 20 years ago, hearing it again sounds an absolute deep soul classic to me. You can't help thinking, when you hear songs like this, that he really must've been going through this anguish in real life. The pain is so evident in the last minute or so.

    It's pretty good. Personally, I think the vocoder effect when you sing "why..." will put quite a few soul fans off, but overall I like the vibe. Good luck with it Beth.
