  1. I enjoy all the versions of this, but my personal fave is James Phelps. Best Russ

  3. Thanks for the posts. Russ
  4. Thanks Darren - Love Little Reuben & regret letting it go........got it in Chicago some 20 years ago for cents. Thx for posting.
  5. Think this was UK only & UK dealers in the know have traded this for many years in the Carolinas for other stuff. Russ
  6. Me too........the punchier take is brilliant nighter spin. Best Russ
  7. Thx Benji.....anyone have one for sale pse ? Russ
  8. Yes it is & whilst it is a cool version, I personally prefer the female vox & the different tempo with the female versions - sweet as sweet can be to these ears........I must have been dancin' to these for 10 years or more, but only just got to really thinkin about em. Russ
  9. Nice one Jaco......Richard Caiton is f*ckin' amazin'. Russ
  10. Both versions of Lou Pride are great, but which is your fave Benji.........all mentioned amongst my fave soul records. Thx for posting. Best Russ
  11. Sherri Taylor - It's Beautiful..........absolutely awesome Butch spin for some years & one of my faves, was uncovered last weekend at Lifeline.....apparently this is an unissued Ruby Andrews track. Does anyone have any further information pse. Best Russ
  12. Whilst the vocal sounds similar, I think some of the phrasing is different...cant quite explain....anyone ? Russ
  13. So which has the break Martha or Cressa & what was the Ace LP called please. Russ
  14. Also, how come Martha Starr ended up recording a Major Bill tune ?. Best Russ
  15. Thank you Ady thats brilliant mate........its amazing the things that come into ya head when killin' time in the dessert sorry desert , so Martha Starr got an official release, was this on Charay ?. Thank you for your help Ady Best Russ
  16. Is the version Butch plays the Rita Lee version ?.....were all versions officially released ?. Russ
  17. Thx mate, good choices, but you need 3 more pse. Russ
  18. Right I aint been paying attention !!!, I love the 'Sweet Temptation' track that Ady has been playing at the 100 Club for years, I believe the version that Ady plays is the Cressa Watson version ?. However there are versions by both Martha Starr & Ward Burton, I know Ward Burton was released on Panther, but can someone pse post the details off the other releases, although I'm assuming Cressa Watson is unissued ?. I also have Tobi Lark in my head in connection with all of this too, but wondered if it had been covered up as TL at some point ?. Many thx Russ
  19. An old Keb play from TOTW of course, was covered up as....was gonna say Jimmy Georgetown but it wasnt & I have now forgotten ?. Best Russ
  20. What are the 5 best Crossover tunes ever ?. Darell Banks - I'm the One Who Loves You - Volt Ruby Andrews - Just Lovin' You - Zodiac Almeta Latimore - These Memories - Mainstream Chuck Cockerham - Have I Got the Right - Mala Kings of Soul - Is Your Love For Me - Down to Earth Hundreds & Hundreds but wanted to choose 'classic' choons. Best Russ
  21. I think the vids are a brilliant idea & I've really enjoyed listening to them - thanks lads. Dave, you need to show me how to do these when I get home if you have a couple of days spare . BTW Dave anyone who knows you is well aware that you are more than capable of producing the goods in both larger main rooms & smaller rooms with a more diverse music policies. My intention was to point out to folk reading the thread who may not know you & were reading the thread in isolation of other information that fact. Russ
  22. BTW How refreshing did Tommy Neal sound within the context of the 'set', thats what DJing is about, not just slappin em on, but givin it a little thought, slip the lesser knowns in proper & the floor dont miss a beat..... Russ
  23. Now that is 'kin Northern Soul.....to put into context I believe these were part of the last hour, now that would send me home very happy indeed.....Mr Abbott is more than a 'one trick' funky pony & deserves more main room exposure, promoters grow a pair & get him on at prime time main room (waddaya say Dave 'the cheques in the post lol). Best Russ
  24. I think your wobbling David.......... Russ
