  1. Stick some Teddy Pendergrass on.... Love TKO, Turn of the Lights.... or his stuff with Harold Melvin.... Satisfaction Guaranteed etc....
  2. I'd be interested in this Seb. Not good at making offers thoughas I'm tight and this often causes offense.
  3. Isn't 'House For Sale' a non-U.S release 45? Never seen an US issue of it if it isn't.
  4. Been played in Mod clubs for years. Have heard it at the odd soul night as well.
  5. Annabelle Fox - Lonely Girl - Satin WD
  6. Me, I won a record from him for below current price.... Turned up in tip top condition and next day delivery.
  7. Red issues are the early ones on the label.... a feww Otis Reddings, The Fleets as mentioned and many more....
  8. Stands to reason thatsome of the earlier releases on the label can be pretty obscure. Theres a 45 by the Fleets that is hard.... shame it's a white sounding doo-wop effort...
  9. Cheap and cheerful little tune..... known but not massively so....
  10. I'll take it if its still available.....
  11. It was a demo and the last time I looked it was over £200.... That was at lunchtime
  12. Oi, I resemble that remark.
  13. Jimmy Winston? Had a group called Winstons Thumbs (or was it Fumbs?)
  14. Ever heard the phrase "Jack of all trades, Master of none"? WOOF!
  15. https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Buddy_Ace_-...ming_Please.ram Categories schmategories..... If this ain't R&B I'll eat my considerable sized hat.
  16. And so the standard reply goes..... If you don't like it it's R&B If it floats your boat then it suddenly morphs 'Northern Soul' What's this one then? https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Ronnie_Fort...Talkin'.ram
  17. Here's an R&B track for you... https://www.soulclub.org/stream/Geater_Davi...ong_For_You.ram Tell me it's a shit-kicking, rock-a-billy, Vic Reeves sound-a-like and I'll point you in the direction of a good 'Ear Doctor'
  18. You will never change the opinion of Blinkered 'Northern' fans... The same people that cry out at R&B being played are always the first ones to rush to the floor when something like Mickie Champion or The Five Royales are spun. They don't understand R&B, so they automaticaly dislike it as it is 'different' (Until they've heard it 50 times and it gets under their skin). At the end of the day, 60 R&B has much more in common with the 60s Stompers than any of the mid-late 70s proto Disco and 'Modern' Soul that DJs like Soul Sam spin - same artists, same backing groups, same production values. There are many records that get spun under the name 'R&B' that I personaly dislike (more often than not white pop artists with the right beat), but the good tracks far outnumber the poor. I don't dislike Modern Soul, I just cannot hack music that is directionless, meandering and without 'oomph!' Tracks like: The Pioneers - My Good Friend James Kenny Thomas - Crazy World Lisa Stansfield...... and so on.....
  19. Can any kind soul sell me a copy of "For What It's Worth" on the Soul City label, so I can complete the set? Cheers, Joe.
  20. hmmmm Jazz. Trini Lopez did a fair album full of R&B/Soul tracks... Imaginatively called - The R&B Album.
  21. His vocals are weak. The lyrics are dire. The backing is wishy washy in the extreme. It's a bag-o-shite and a perfect example of 'Emporers New Clothes' Constructive enough?
  22. Ain't Nothin But A Houseparty - Cliff Richard 'Live At The Talk Of The Town' Suprisingly, quite good.
  23. One of those records you either love or hate. Personally detest it. Bid £15 on one on eBay to sell on, finally went for £130+ Insane. They should have stuck to Reggae.
