How could I forget about this one!? One of the most played tunes in my portable MP3-player over the past 6 months or so. The best version around of this tune in my opinion, superb vocals and production!

I've put together an MP3-mix featuring tracks from my current auctions for those of you who don't have the time to dig through all of the eBay listings. And even for those of you who aren't interested in buying anything it should make for about 30 minutes of nice listening. SOUL / FUNK / R&B MIX [listen here] Edward Hamilton - Baby Don't You Weep - MARYJANE Edwin Starr - You're My Mellow - RIC-TIC Marv Johnson - Come On And Stop - UNITED ARTISTS Hoagy Lands - The Next In Line - LAURIE Shadows - My Love Is Gone - U.S.A. Falcons - (I'm A Fool) I Must Love You - BIG WHEEL Ace Spectrum - Don't Send Nobody Else - ATLANTIC Nino Tempo & 5th Ave. Sax - Sister James - A&M Vibrating Vibrations - Surprise Party For Baby - NEPTUNE Madeline Bell - Picture Me Gone - PHILIPS Dreams - Softly, Softly - CBS Sandy Wynns - The Touch Of Venus - CHAMPION Entertainers - I'm In Love With You - HMC Mayberry Movement - I Think I'm In Love - EVENT Tony Rallo & The Midnite Band - Holdin' On - CALIBRE Blood Hollins - Don't Give Up - STRANGE FRUIT Madeline Bell - I'm Gonna Make You Love Me - PHILIPS

One of my all-time deep soul faves! So damn good and emotional.

The funk forum can be accessed via... https://www.fryer-mantis.co.uk/ ...now again.

It's all good! I have actually heard about two different versions of this tune, so the CD-version might be different, I don't know for sure.

The Tommy Tate tune did get a 7" release... ... or is the CD-version different? It's superb in any case!

Something For The Head - phillip mitchell - 14692 refosoul

Bullets Don't Have Eyes - eddie & ernie - unissued loadstone (?) 14691 refosoul

Ooh Baby - eldridge holmes - unissued deesu 14690 refosoul

Love Has Taken Over Me - herbert hunter - unissued spar 14689 refosoul

Darling I'll Go - moovers - unissued deep city 14688 refosoul Now, how good is this!?

Nobody But Me - other brothers - unissued modern 14687 refosoul I know that I'm harping on about the unissued Other Brothers recordings for Modern at every given opportunity, but I really think this is a superb dancer.

I Want It All - ike lovely - capitol 14686 refosoul Great uptempo tune and a quite hard to find 45.

I still remember the first time I heard this... Could hardly believe it. I absolutely LOVE this tune! And almost that entire LP is brilliant. Such a pity that "Keep On Climbing" didn't come out on a 7". What a tune! It's bloody amazing!!!

Ain't No Sun Since You've Been Gone - temptations - lp-only 14685 refosoul WHAT A VERSION!!! From the sublime "With A Lot O' Soul" LP.

To use a word like "girlie" in a derogatory sense (and don't tell me you didn't) shows that you have some sexist tendencies, not homophobic.

Craig Moerer has got twelve M- copies of this 45 at $12 each: https://www.recordsbymail.com/search.php?keywords=176001

I've got it as well. What a terrific tune "Keep The Fire Burning" is!!!

That might be the case... but it doesn't explain the lack of copies available in the US of this release. By the way, the backing tracks on this one and Slave's "Watching You" on Cotillion are pretty much the same. Jimmy Douglass produced both but the writing credits are completely different...

Anyone else have any suggestions on tricky-to-find late 70s/early 80s tunes by BIG artists on MAJOR labels?
