Here Is Barbara Lynn, great album.

Female artist from me now , strangely I have not really bought female records in anywhere near the quantity of male stuff but strangely if I was to pick my top lps they would do well Doris Duke the 2 Millie Jackson Caught Up sagas , Jean Carn. But the one I would say is my favourite is Barbara Lynn a very consistent artist and great songs with thought provoking lyrics The first record heard by her by me - This beauty

Cheap too , I love his version of "Rome Wasn't Built In A Day" on Sar. From Sar to Malaco the man was outstanding , sadly missed.

Couple to go at,got loads of artists who I anticipated their new releases and bought these two stick in my mind because they answer both questions , first record and fave artists Changes - Johnnie Taylor Trying To Live My Life Without You - Otis Clay

Great record in its day but was played out in the early seventies, and so out of vogue now I would have thought , if I heard it out now it would be a groan from me.

Old Thread here.

I would have thought the drill hole was the easier way to identify deletions for no return , gold paint splodge on a record seems to be a laborious way to do it even on few records never mind thousands.

Fairly apt Peter with the photos the plant is also known as Dog Wood , and then the picture of Ace.

Why is it that a lot of average pop singers are getting a lot of air time on Soul Source lately ? There is enough real soul music from America to keep me i going for the rest of my life without having to check out the likes of Texas even if it is recorded at Muscle Shoals, Soul it ain't.

That's some life you have lived , I was still playing conkers and climbing trees at 13 and been shouted in by my mother when it went dark

Hope you mean "doing great things"

Read Karen's response after your post.

That dance should go down a storm in Bristol.

Look at the film clip to the new Chicken Run movie Levanna has uploaded to Tic Tok some nice spins and things at the end of the routine from the chicken. It will have some spitting feathers and clucking.

Great track, some nice midtempo tracks on the lp too including the one below.

Songwriters signed to contracts, producers and arrangers signed to Contracts, Artists and the musicians all signed to contracts , so I would assume they were left to make music and then the powers that be decided which tracks made it to singles then to the lp tracks. Does seem a lot of great tracks never made it to record but it would be cheaper to can any tracks that the production control thought not suitable for release than to take a punt and put them into production and incur the cost of pressing the records , distribution and promotion only to be left in the deletion bins. And we probably do not appreciate how many records were be released in Detroit on umpteen labels alone every week during the Motown golden years, the record buyers had a treasure trove of soul music to buy but only so much money to spend.

On the album below too. Otis Clay "The Onderful Masters" , vinyl lp.on Charly

Love the lyric to this one especially the line that goes - "Don't worry about the kids , I,ll treat em kind , after all half of them are mine ".

That ad was quite good, a play on Quadrophenia but tastefully done and no p?ss taking

I was never a great dancer but what I did was feel the music and as Pete says above it does transport you to another place for that 2 minutes or so. What we see today is over the top dramatics talc thrown about as though it is going out of fashion all for the camera , sad that it as come to this.

1.4.24 already

Amended

Sorry to say its the new line dancing, been watching a few videos of old nighters from the 80s 90s and the great dancers on there are few and far between but you could tell they all felt the music unlike the venues these learners will be attending, fake dancing, fake handshakes and stupid clothes.
