  1. yeah groups included Dylan, good call the masqueraders, excuse my ignorance but was there just one group of that name in the 6ts?
  2. just been reading the article of Otis I wouldn't dispute his rights to greatest soul artist, but northern that's a different matter, who do you think the greatest is? I'm throwing my hat in the ring with a pretty obvious choice- Jackie Wilson, he doesn't have many rare tunes for sure, but in terms of shear volume he's gotta be top 5.
  3. Same could be said of loads of tunes that go for double the value of this.
  4. maybe its the same as capitol 66 demos? Did abs issue demos in 68?
  5. I was going to ask how did you play it, but thanks for clearing that up.
  6. Wish there were that many books on the really influencial clubs of the era, garage, gallery, zanzibar, or the warehouse. Their seems to be very little written about the sanctuary, which was probably the most important of all.
  7. Arron neville has a great vocals but it's really sounds like a demo, the instrumentation is really back in the mix. I I like the fidels but it's kind of so wrong for now. would have been massive in the 80's though.
  8. It's really sad, but it happened again in the 80s with the early house pioneers. Most of them didn't even get a royalties, but just a one off payment for the tape.
  9. a decent read, just interested to know how widespread is it, are we just talking about one club here or are there nights all over japan?
  10. Yeah you're right of course, but I the Melba - standing is in another class, too good for this type of crowd, lol.
  11. Try Al mathew_ fool Emotions best of my love/I don't want to lose your love Boz scaggs-lowdown/what can I say Melba Moore baby don't change your mind All worked well for me at these types of events in the past.
  12. in terms of house, certainly one of the most influential and sampled artists
  13. saw him absolutely stuff up a mix, cutting between two copies of mfsb on the show, kinda embarrassing really as its his signature mix.
  14. Muck fe mace, the how very restrained you are, and you hit the mother load, you jammy bad tart.
  15. always wondered why they had so many sub labels, without any real distinction between styles or genre
  16. do you think they focussed on 'that motown sound' at the expense of individual artist development Dave?
  17. hardcore dave, I'd have more respect for some of the young guns if they were doing it more, that said there are a small band of them that are always up and out. that national express from London to Blackburn, was a long one, it used to stop at every small town in lancs.
  18. sad to see probably the rarest items on the list, the mags, go for so little, a real piece of British soul history.
  19. Sam Cooke is often cited as the first soul singer, the impressions were also a fundamental influence on the transition of r and b into soul. Imho the first soul records are from 64/65. But this subject is a thread in itself!
  20. soulfulness wise it has to be 70's, just listen to the output of Philly int compared to Motown, far more soulful imho. Also you have a whole decade to go at, whereas the 60's didn't get soul until halfway through the decade and although I like loads of R and B, most it aint soulful, bluesful maybe but not soulful.
  21. average voice sing typical post modern song, struggling to see anything innovative or original about this.
