EUGENE THOMAS NEW RELEASE! The name of Eugene Thomas has become well known in soul circles ever since it was discovered that he was the lead vocalist on that wonderful Northern Soul double sided classic by Epitome Of Sound – “You Don’t Love Me b/w Where Were You”, which was recorded at Venture Studios in Bound Brook New Jersey and subsequently released on Sandbag Records in 1967. Fast forward an amazing 52 years and the author of both sides of that classic 45 Robert Paladino, has recently released a 45 and here, hot its heels is a solo effort from Mr Thomas. Written and co-produced by Eugene himself, Eugene Thomas – “I’m Through With You b/w Lovely Lady” Sweet Beat Records (RW1805), combines two excellent soul sides that do a great job of tipping their hat to the golden era of 60s soul. The A Side is a pounding up-tempo dancer relating the story against a love affair gone wrong as Eugene ditches his two-timing woman. Full blown, on the fours, Northern Soul with a crackin’ sax break, if it garners the right exposure I’d imagine it will get great dancefloor reaction from the dancers. The flip is another ‘bounce along’ dancer that highlights Eugene’s dexterity within his song-writing skills as he embraces a new love. Musically it’s another performance that would seem ideally suited to the Northern Soul dancefloors. The 45 is available from all the usual outlets in UK and US. Here's a snippet of both sides: Dave Moore

Poll: Version Battle - I'm So Glad I Found You
Dave Moore replied to Mike's topic in All About the SOUL
When I reviewed the Linda Jones version a few years ago I wrote...... "At 1.25 it's as though Linda has had enough and elbows the guys out the way with a well meaning but belligerent 'Move over boys, real singer coming through!'. Dave -
LOL! Not a Stokie mate no. I wasn't aware of another DM on the site that's all. I'll now go and take out a new mortgage...... err, what's your DOB and current address? LOL! Dave

Argh! Just to clarify, this member is a different DM to myself. Regards, Dave

Christine Cooper - Voices of Vista Lp - 1966
Dave Moore replied to The Tempest's topic in Look At Your Box
It's a little delicate subject but Eddie did indeed date Ms Tari Stevens who, in turn, was indeed Christine Cooper. Sadly, he has no idea where she is now though. The information was then confirmed/corroborated by the sound engineer of 'HAMB'. I was desperate to find her in order try and get her on stage but all to no avail so far. Dave -

Chris, You are aware that CC is in fact Tari Stevens and was the girlfriend of a famous Philadelphian that you have actually met? I'm sure we've had this conversation before? Dave -

Most inappropriate request to a DJ....
Dave Moore replied to Tomangoes's topic in All About the SOUL
I was DJing at a Hotel Venue when a guy a little 'worse for wear' came up and asked for 'That James Bond' song that a woman sings'. I knew exactly what he wanted but didn't have it with me. (Yvonne Baker). I told him I didn't have it with me to which he replied.... 'You haven't even looked!' I told him I didn't need to look, that I knew it wasn't with me and that maybe the next DJ might have it. He gave me a look of complete disgust and sauntered off to his mates for a conflab. Few minutes later he returned with the remark ' Hey you wanker, you could at least look for that James Bond Record'. He then pointed at the machine behind me that had led lights flashing etc and said 'Call yourself a DJ', you must have millions of tracks to choose from, we want you to play it so fuckin' play it! I explained to him that the machine he was pointing at was an amplifier NOT a laptop! LOL! He returned a little later with it playing on his iphone and asked me to plug it in! LOL! Ah, the digital age eh? Dave -

United Sound Systems Recording Studio For Sale
Dave Moore replied to Mike's topic in All About the SOUL
A few of us were in there last year. It all looked great although the layout has changed massively since it's heyday. What a shame they couldn't make a go of it. I guess TV ads and radio jingles aren't enough to sustain it. Hope someone buys it that can ensure it's not a victim of the Land Developer's wrecking ball! Regards, Dave -

These features are great, thanks for sharing them. Just to add a little snippet of info... I asked Billy Jackson about the Tower 45 and he was adamant it wasn't his work. When I pointed out that it must have been as he worked closely with Jimmy Wisner the 'penny dropped'. "Ah in that case it is Jimmy putting me down as the writer so I might make a few bucks". He and Jimmy were close in those days and Jimmy apparently did that on a number of occasions to help Billy out. A decade ago a couple of us reunited them for a fantastic lunch where we simply put the dictaphone recorder on and let them run with their memories. Sadly both now passed away but a fantastic legacy from both of them will ensure they are always remembered and revered in music circles. Regards, Dave
