Soulsource Record Club Record Of The Day 2012
Dave Moore replied to dthedrug's topic in All About the SOUL
This morning's offering: Probably in the top 5 most 'majestic' introductions. Great Billy Jackson song sung by a stalwart of the Northern scene. Can't remember when I last heard this outside of my record room. Fantastic dancer for the price of a can of coke! Just how we like 'em! Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/CDAl1SQ82Is -
He also got the VeeJay cut outs to the first Beatles LP. He then secured the deal for the cut outs to Let It Be and proceeded to bootleg it, then hide all the sales in the deal. No wonder Mr Levy and his associates "had a word'. Proper record blokes, from a time long gone now. NO MORE TALES......!! You'll have to buy the book in September! :lol: Regards, Dave
-
Thanks Kev, Will do. Regards, Dave
-
Yep, I've read the book and a couple of others about the cut out side of the business. Am now looking for someone to tie up that side of things with the UK thirst for soul 45s. There are a number of different versions of the John LaMonte story. Regards, Dave
-
Is this being played again? Is that what's driving demand? Regards, Dave
-
Did anyone on here ever deal with any of the large cut out dealers in the 70s? Especially John LaMonte's House Of Sounds located in Darby, Phildelphia? I'm looking for some info on the city's record dealings. ANY info would be greatly appreciated. Regards, Dave

This morning's offering: Another quality 45 from Weldon's protege with the Jimmy Bishop writing credit. Ms Mason knew (knows) how to deliver a sweet ballad with a little 'lushness' in the arrangement probably better than anyone else from the city's golden era I reckon. Another Hitsville Sunday Soul Brunch play. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/uXWxyZ7EbJw -

This morning's offering: First done I think by The Stylistics although this may be the original I'm not 100% sure. Both great, falsetto style, sweet soul outings that just float along. Great group the Vibrations, out of California as youthful singers, great Philly connections, including having the writer of Storm Warning, The Laws Of Love amongst other Philly monsters (Carl Fisher), who became a great friend. This 45 may say Chess but it's pure mid 70s Intruders styled Philly. Regards, Dave https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuASolhjlWQ -
Cheers Chalkster, Looks like I'll have to dig it our have a listen. Regards, Dave
-
Isn't this track on the 12 inch EP - World Is Rated X ? I don't remember it being a poor mix on this? Is it? (I can't be arsed searching the shelves for it). Regards, Dave

This afternoon's offering: A great uptempo song given the Gamble and Huff treatment. Original by Dee Erwin on Redd Coach although also released on Imperial I suppose it's the Chuck Jackson ABC version that's probably the best known. Here's Mr Sigler belting out his version. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/LktiQtBy_uI -

This morning's offering: Another great 45 from the group that were the Yum Yums under Jerry Ross' previous tutelage. This one's arranged by Philadelphia legend Bobby Martin and although Jimmy Bishop's name is alone on the writing credit's I suspect he had "some help". Think my pal Dave F has a Virtue acetate of this, not sure if it's the same take or not. Great femme dancer that gets aired now and then but seem ripe for a reactivation.

Been tried at gigs a few times over the years but never really 'stuck'. It's missing something eh? Nice demo for a couple of $$s though, sits well next to "Personally" Demo which is also sleeved. Regards, Dave -

This morning's offering: Am preparing for a research trip to Philadelphia so my next few posts will focus on the City Of Brotherly Love. First up, a group soulful harmonies 45 that has seen plays every now and then in 'crossover' DJ sets over the years. Kinda record that once heard for the first time you go, check it out, find out it's only a couple of $$ and get one within the week. Great group, great song produced by the masters of that sweetish, soulful sound. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/TtHpgVHvRJM -

This mornings offering: First played this almost 20 years ago. Found a box of demos at an outdoor market just off the US27. Went for a couple of quid each. Great midtempo girlie thingumijig. Still cheap as chips just how we like 'em too. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/-rRq_q7z2sM -

This afternoon's offering: A record I always personally associate with The Yate Allnighters. Happy days! Long drive from Burnley, and usually in a transit van with a bunch of other loonies, but worth it. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/UNC9RFKYFR4 -

Russ, Seen him sing it live TWICE in the 80s. A song of GINORMOUS proportions. Love it! Regards, Dave -

This morning's offering: Another record that has seen some plays at the Hitsville Weekender Sunday Soul Brunches. No dressing up in fancy party frocks here folks, just a drum and horn led beat interspersed with a single solitary guitar lick now and then. It's all about the vocal and the lyrics. Great record.

This afternoon's offering: Fantastic song, great vocals, produced by LEGENDS. Can't really fail to hit the spot can it? Same as Smith Brothers on Soul Dimension. There were a few found in California about 6/7 years ago. Manged to get a couple. Kept this one as as part of my Pied Piper 'collection'. Always loved it...FANTASTICO!

I've had a many an issue but not too many demos in good nick. I'd be asking nearer 40/50 for a demo in good nick. Regards, Dave -

This morning's offering: BIG statement coming up.........My favourite Conwell/Len Jewell collaboration! The kind of record that typifies the Sunday Soul Brunch of Hitsville's Weekenders. Nothing better....few scoops in the sunshine, guys playing records of this quality all afternoon, feet tapping, appreciating soul music how it should be. (for us anyway! ) I have this on a nice White Gemini Demo which I have to say you don't see much in really good nick for some reason. West Coast magicians at work.

This afternoons offering: Used to get a few plays about 15 years ago but never really took off. I was luck enough to locate a 50 count box of demos at Sunshine Records which went out at a couple of quid each. This trio lost Mr Jones and morphed into Ferguson, Davis and Lee who had a couple of releases on GRT and Chess. I still pull it out every now and then (Ooh Err Missus!).

This evening's offering: There's a reason why songs get covered by different artists in different styles and genres, It's cos they're fantastic songs that stand the test of time. This is one of them. Combine it with the superlative vocals of Mr Johnson and hey presto! Soul music of the ginormous kind. Great record. Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/Urai00gfM_o -

This afternoons offering: From a group of ladies who are I suppose, something of an acquired taste. I like most of their outings. This is a great Goffin/King song and it's been done by many soul artists but I particularly like this version. I'd imagine the girls were young teens when they recorded this. I have it on a nice Charmain WDJ. Regards, Dave -

This morning's offering; Probably better known I would think by The Shades of Blue from their Happiness LP. Another testimony to the talents of Barney 'Duke' Browner. I think this must have been the first track he and Harry Balk cut when they moved to Motown after absorbing Impact into the Hitsville family of labels. not an out and out dancer like the SOB version but a great record nevertheless. One of Bev's top 10 so it must be a good! Regards, Dave https://youtu.be/nVun5AHHZNI
