The only way is up, collect ability wise, I reckon. Written by Biddu, one of his better ones. Moon Williams I can't live without you Dick James Music (DJM) - not the best voice in the world though. I have another version in the collection somewhere, might recall what it is someday:

:-)

That's very nice of you to say. There aren't very many Northern Soul birders (of the feathered variety) about. Regards Mick

Some great postings on here this last week. Thanks for sharing guys.

Thought I'd share this "what does it take" from the David Letterman circa 1985 show that also includes a short interview. I always loved Junior from seeing him several times live. Along with Edwin he was always modest, appreciative of his fans and a remarkable performer. Junior Walker What does it take on the David Letterman 25 Nov 1985. Jon Anderson also released his Christmas album then.

Love these whistful chugger's, beautiful!

They had about 10 copies, I bought one about 12 years ago from there and sold it for £350 12 months ago. I actually posted it on Youtube and one of the band members niece's contacted to me to thank me for sharing it.

Probably been discussed before, but here we go : Flash drive MP3's for sale: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NORTHERN-SOUL-MUSIC-PRE-LOADED-ON-A-USB-FLASH-DRIVE-IN-MP3-FORMAT/252693132934?_trksid=p2047675.c100012.m1985&_trkparms=aid%3D777003%26algo%3DDISCL.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D40809%26meid%3D6b860d1a36d44d8f95d810d75d539ca3%26pid%3D100012%26rk%3D6%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D282297812450 Surely BMI or someone in the music biss, can stop this sort of thing?

Wasn't aware of this version at all Chris. Thanks for posting. Though I'll stick with the James Gadson. This version of the Little Anthony classic, is one for the soul police. Hardly "soul" I know but I just love the production on it. LP only I think.

British being my first love, I recently picked this up on a nice Vocalion demo. A bit of a cheapo on the US Peacock release, the UK one's passed me by until now. The other side which is a crossover effort suffers from sounding like it was recorded in a Tin Can. Nice R'n'B mover: Don Fletcher "I'm so Glad"

Lack of Afro Nice vocals, but not for me. Would like to hear a proper house mix.

James Gadson Got to find my baby Cream Quality crossover on a budget. Shame there's not a vid of sufficient quality, on youtube to do it justice.

A bit of real soul that has a following. Dorthy Johnson - If It's Not Love Don't Waste My Time ZOT

Can't believe that this is the same group that charted with "Haven't Stopped Dancing Yet" Nice one!

Here's a classic Arthur Geenslade production, a UK double sider from Madeline Bell from 1966 : Madeline Bell - " I really got carried away " :
