I have two copies of this single and both start to sound really bad/distorted in the last thirty second. especially her voice. saw this video on youtube and it also seems to have the same problem. do they all sound like that? or am i just crazy?

cheap double sider of heavy duty awesome-ness: margie hendrix - dont destroy me / jim dandy

what did you hear?

Yeah - they played "take me in your arms" by Kim W today as well

Yes! LOVE IT!! This is my dog "Jeeves"

Yes! It does seem they are EXTREMELY into the Chess/Checker/Cadet/Argo catalogue (blues, R&B, as well as soul) ...also, off-topic, is your user name "Eulalie" a reference to Jeeves and Wooster? Just curious. Or is it a common British term/name?

i did not see a CD for sale, but it was obviously a whole "set" of northern soul (was one solid hour of it). strange...

look at me now - terry callier

soul time - shirley ellis wtf?

jeez.... if they keep this up they will put me out of business as a DJ

suspicion - originals leave it in the hands of love - fontella bass

....and now the Cavaliers "hold on to my baby"

I am sitting in a Starbucks in California right now. "Love's Gone Bad" by Chris Clark just finished, and now "baby don't you weep" by Edward Hamilton is playing. Is Starbucks about to enter the Northern Soul business? Have other's noticed rare soul being played at one?

Thanks for all the info, folks. Just won the "me, myself, and i" norma jenkins on carnival - and then stumbled on the video. Great voice!

this video on youtube has an Old Town label that says norma jenkins and is #1160 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SBks6c0ojLk ...but number is actually the Sparkels doing the same song (different recording) anyway know what the deal is? thanks!

always took time to answer my questions. never made me feel silly, no matter how trivial my questions were. or lack of knowledge. wish there were more like him. not just on the soul scene - but in the world.

i made an uptempo gospel mix for a friend's website and was checking the CD of tunes i burned. can't stop repeating The Followers - "my god said it" (Roulette gospel LP featuring a young Nick Ashford and Val Simpson) check it!

my fave mirwood is early cosby "ooh honey baby."

i teach at a military institution (for mid-career officers) and DJ for fun at local cafes/pubs etc. my students come to my sets with their wives, but they don't know the music - so i make free sampler CDs for them to get a taste of soul/funk. here is a 12-song set i just burned 30 copies of for my guys (and been listening to myself): Dorothy and the Hesitations - work out a plan Willie Gresham and the Free Food Tickets - step by step Charles Brimmer - feeling is in my heart Little Archie - all i have to do Velvet Hammer - happy Mel Britt - she'll come running back Pearlean Gray - i don't want to cry Shirley and Jessie - you can't fight love Betty Moorer - speed up Thelma Jones - here comes the heartbreak De Vons - someone to treat me (way you used to) Festivals - you got the makings of a lover

...at 1:08 when she says "welcome to my lips, welcome to my arms, welcome welcome to my heart" oooooooooooohhhhh sooooooo goooooooooodddd!! pearlean gray - i don't want to cry

i get it... i just think its lame. like selling someone a car and then taking the tires off before they pick it up.

I'm sorry if this is a soul-source member, but this seems kinda lame to me. ...selling the companies sleeves separate from the record? come on bro! https://www.ebay.com/sch/theworldofcitrine/m.html?item=151243621681&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562

the calla version played here is the same recording as the stateside i listed in the first post. i swear to god, however, that i have heard another calla copy that differs at seconds 38-40 (where, instead of staggering out the words "on-ly your love" - she says them at a faster clip. i am waiting to see if i can get the copy that has the different vocal phrasing and post a clip. i promise i am not crazy!

I just heard a couple of files of this song. they seem to differ in the refrain; how she paces the words "only your love" at the end each verse. this is the one i am familiar with and the other one i heard was on US Calla and seemed to differ from the other in the refrain (like at seconds 38-40 of the youtube posted one). is that true of all of the Calla ones?

does anyone know how much this goes for - i'm having trouble tracking one down...
