We knew this was coming didn't we Gary , but it's still such a shock . As much a part of the Casino as Mrs Woods , Dean Parrish and a thousand other things .Easily the funniest guy I've ever met , and a character with a capital C . Seems really sad that just as he was becoming successful with one of his best assets he was taken from us .Rest in peace Dave , Best ,Eddie

I managed to get Shifty to play it at Cleethorpes w/ ender on the sunday night a few years back .It's hard to imagine how massive this record was at the time , and Pete's sound clip epitomised why I loved Northern Soul in the first place , that atmosphere was almost frightening !! Best ,Eddie

Is This Ben E King's Greatest Record?
Eddie Hubbard replied to Billy Freemantle's topic in All About the SOUL
Fantastic record , though my own personal faves would be either " Forgive this fool " , " Tears ,Tears ,Tears " or " She's gone again " , what a brilliantly consistent artist .Best ,Eddie -
Think Russ at Wigan started this one off didn't he ? Best ,Eddie

Oh yes ,that was a great one Pete , bought a mint Green and Silver demo off Pete Widd in Wigan record bar for about £8 , wish I still had it !! Best ,Eddie

I really love Jon Ford's version of " You got me where you want me " [Phillips ] , plus his " Running around " is another fave , though probably not very well known .Jimmy Thomas " Beautiful night " must be up there as is Carl Douglas " Serving a sentance of life " . Still got my first ever British tape which Budgie [ then Southampton ] gave me in 1977 !! Best Wishes ,Eddie

Carrying on the deep soul thread , did anyone see the excellent programme the other night about John Peel's record box , a collection of around 100 45's found in his house after he died , containing real favourites of his ? Lot's of great footage and interviews , and while a film of his wedding was shown , Eddie and Ernie's awesome deep soul side " I'm gonna always love you " was played !! Also noticed Stanley Winston's brilliant " No more ghetto's in America " [Jewel ] lying in the box , surrounded by The White Stripes ,Marc Bolan , etc !! Best Wishes ,Eddie .

Hello Colin , Eddie Holman is a brilliant ballad , I've got loads of faves , but currently I'm still enjoying "Rainbow Road " - Bill Brandon , The Hard Tymes " I ask a question " , Aretha " Sweet bitter love " and George Jackson " Mackin' on you " .These type of records really blow my mind , and yes so many of The Dells records fit that bag , such as the one you've mentioned , or " The love we had stays on my mind " , " Love is missing from our lives " [ with The Dramatics - there's another ace group !! ] , " I wish it was me you loved " , I could go on and on......... Bobby womack is another fave artist on deep sides like " I'm through trying to prove my love for you " .As Dave Godin once said , you need to be a good actor as well as a great singer to make the listener believe you're really going through the pain portrayed in the lyrics of the best deep sides .Best Wishes ,Eddie

Soul Satisfaction 5 from Universal In my review for the recent Chuck Jackson and Kim Weston CD's, I begged the question, what would Motown /Universal release next, to keep up the momentum of what has been a wonderful year for Motown collectors. The result? A fantastic collection of under exposed Motown sides, as compiler Jo Wallace digs deep into the vaults, and emerges with 24 super sides that have appeal right across the Soul spectrum. Beginning with the early pioneering sounds of Barrett Strong's " You knows what to do " , The Marvelettes fantastic album only take of Smokey's " Way over there " and Stevie Wonder's in demand " Contract on love " , into the " classic " Motown sound of Smokey and The Miracles " My baby changes like the weather " , Earl Van Dyke's hammond organ version of Martha /Vandellas mega classic " Nowhere to run " , the floor filling " Why when love is gone " by The Isley Brothers , the super cool finger clicking sound of Marvin Gaye, with " Tear it on down " , before moving seamlessly into the crossover / 70's era with equally great sides such as the beautiful " Something on my mind " by Diana Ross, the unissued and wonderful " Life Beats " by The Supremes, the in demand, and epitome of crossover Soul that is Thelma Houston's " Nothing left to give ", and the personal faves of " I will never let you get away" by Jimmy Ruffin and the Soul heaven of The Originals with " Good lovin ' is just a dime away " The CD ends with The Dynamic Superiors version of Ace Spectrum's " Don't send nobody else " , maybe not as good as their version, though still a very interesting listen .An unreservedly recommended collection , with appeal right across the board , an essential purchase .
