    Christ the records I love the most are often terribly produced, in technical terms, that's never been the point for me, true soul transends production quality.
  2. Geeselad
    its a rhythmic thing surely, Clausel sums that up for me, but i've also seen it refer to some slow, often epic soul ballads, that to these ears verge on the quiet storm territory.

    I found around 30 rock and roll tunes all in grt nick, all london, mainly fats Domino, total of £440, with £210 of that for the raresty of his uk discs, just over 12mnths ago.

    cant believe some are so fussy, I buy and sell on bay, if it arrives in reasonable time, a week uk, 2 weeks stateside, and its in 1 peice i'm satisfied and expect others to be, if I sell on those terms.

    michigan move, guy old spin is without a doubt the best intro ever. can anyone offer any info about it? I read it was discovered with a bunch of popcorn's tape's including the actual backing track to Edwin's Backstreet, I'll have that as the 2nd best intro ever.

    their other release, on heavy left, is even better, but no youtube. ten city define how good it can sound, for me.
  7. Geeselad
    there's a bit of sliced toms about that!
  8. Geeselad
    mentioned above, cats sound and spun at Burnley more recently, dont know why, the voclas good but it just sounds loads better as in instro.
  9. Geeselad
    a reminder of what great soulful dance music sounds like, imho, of course.

    I like the aristcrats but billy woods has a northern appeal beyond that, its got a commercial, catchy, edge that puts in the top draw when you add the rarity factor, both are great records but one has that 'up' quality, Hate to admit it but tonally its not disimilar to that Bob sinclair record I love, what it called? thats it Tribute.
  11. Geeselad
    thats ace and never heard it before

    absolute fool whoever it was. the man was a genius on an equal par with marvin and jb in my book.

    hardly ever play anything without pitching up or even down in some cases, stop short of playing things at different speeds, though I've no objection and I've heard some grt tracks played that way, honest!
  14. Geeselad
    nice tune, there more to Lee than being a great JB impersonator.
  15. Geeselad
    honest question, does the popcorn scene still exist? I mean do they still run popcorn events in Belgium.
  16. Geeselad
    spot on Matt, very well put. its a side issue though, I'm sure some Dj's do love BS ( incredible though that might sound) , so the're only playing to their taste, its just I hate their taste

    Lovehouse (I run a night named exactly that) but hate Bob Sinclair and in fairness a lot of what's played @ modern nights, in wanting to sound so contemporary it misses the point and, to these ears, it sounds cliched and lets face it cheesy. I'll shut up now I'm repeating myself.

    Ian, I still hate it, but you defended it so well you should have gone into law, you been watching suits? For me I think the reason I hate it so much is down to it just being too 'up' and I like things a little on the blue side personally, soul and all other genre's have to by slightly bittersweet to appeal, Thats why I love Ron hall, hell I used to dismiss everything on Motown as just pop. in fairness to the original poster, its a little off putting to a casual user to be so negative about something thats obviously liked by many, so, sorry, but I still makes me cringe.
  19. Geeselad
    collected soulful house since 1989, and I bob Sinclair is one of the worst examples I've ever heard. It epitomises the piss poor taste of many NS fans, sorry if its harsh do its seldom I hate a tune with such passion. Intereste to know if it gets or got plays on the modern scene though, anyone? just seen the pres comment,
  20. Geeselad
    young disciples did it in the 9ts, pete waterman in the 8ts, sharon jones did it with 'what have done for me lately', think they said it was an recently unearthed verion of the jj song, pmsl. it creates hype, and I'm sure other commercial artist's will use the ploy i'm the future.
  21. Geeselad
    you wanna be careful talking about fun on here, some people might get offended, sweet sweetback you got a bad bad ass.
  22. Geeselad
    ok sorry, Im just curious to know how many 45's from the genre stated I could buy for a couple of grand, 2000? 5000? 10,000? Quality well obviously the'd vary if you buying in bulk, but I'm just talking about a job lot of soul tunes from the 6ts through till the 8ts anyone ever bought a shed load of tunes from the states or UK?, the more recently the better. This thread's inspired by or rather an anathma to the one about spending cash on fantasy crown jewel type tunes, never mind the quality its all about the bulk!!!!!!
  23. Geeselad
    I dont have the spare cash my friend, but if I did your offer would be a better way to spend cash on soul tunes, than a single pricey item, imho. in terms of pleasure rather than investment obviously.
  24. Geeselad
    thanks Kev, Im thinking a jopb lot from the states or cheap bulk collection over here.
  25. Geeselad
    Inspired by another thread ( how much would you pay?) how many soul related US singles could you get for 2K? any ideas? dont have to be 6ts, a mix of 6ts 7ts and 8ts would do me fine?
