It looks pleasant enough, but the dancefloor looks a tad on the small side?
-
Yes What am I gonna do was a modern spin early 80's Russ. Steve
-
Jeepers I didn't realise Blues & Soul was still going ....Says a lot when they publish an essential top 40 - that's something I'd expect to find in the Observer or Guardian or something.
-
Hey Bromley never used to be like this!!!
-
Thanks for your input
-
Oh yes - goes down a treat about 3.30 am. It'll probably also be aired at the Bass tomorow too - top tune Off to search for my stylophone in the loft - I fancy a new version
-
Clarence Carter - can't stand his voice
-
Oh I like all of the Sisters Love tracks on A&M, Mowest, Motown etc, I am commenting on the re-recording of the song by IL, not the Sisters themselves by gum!
-
Goes back into black culture / history, where Jody was a spiv like character, and is basically a guy that steals your woman from you while you are away (at work, at war etc.). lot's of Jody records came out during the Vietnam war.
-
I think your arguments would hold some water if IL was recording and pushing new songs on Vermetta, rather than trying to remake what is a classic Curtis Mayfield song. I'd rather hear a "Standing on solid ground" type of thing (albeit I don't like that song), than these Motown remakes.....which are almost Frankenstien like in their conception
-
...seems like I am the only one that doesn't like Otis redding then - oh well!
-
I just don't get it Simon. Why does IL constantly butcher classic soul records, and in this case one of the finest Motown 70's tunes. It's a bit like someone in the world of fine art copying known masters (Turners, Renoirs, Constables etc), but getting them all horribly wrong and distorted. They just wouldn't be taken seriously there, and I can't take these horrid remakes seriously either. Absolutely ghastly! :angry: Now where's me Mowest box....
-
Funnily enough the record that made 170,000, I actually read about in Record Collector - it was an auction, not ebay btw. Steve
-
Yes that's it..I knew it was some 60s US white thingy-ma-jig
-
Otis Redding - just can't stand his voice
-
I think the record is $170,000 (£80,000) for a US acetate. Cannot remember off the top of me 'ed who it was now, but it was someone like Dylan
-
Yeah it was never rare was it - loads of copies
-
...and that is the HDH one.
-
Hi Ken the Lamont Dozier was part of the EARLIER series. The triple from which the above tracks were taken was the HDH one, I have it here in my mits as I type.
-
A few years back but they were dead friendly....left the wife in the car too!
-
Rather rudely I just turned up there one lunchtime. Wolf was out but the other guys were all there, so after a tour of the studio, and warehouse it was into Tommy Couch's office for a chat, and I met George Jackson too. Really friendly people George was trying to get all his tracks together for his grandkids, and was missing some, so I promised him when I got home I'd cut them onto a CDR and send them to him, which I duly did being a good egg
-
So far every tune on this thread is brilliant!
-
Brilliant records both that and the Veep one above.

Worst Or Most Annoying Tune That's Being Played At The Moment
Steve G replied to Ianbrown's topic in All About the SOUL
Actually I did play "Change your ways" at the last Herts Irish Club - to me it's always been the far better side and stands up as a great dancer. IMHO of course -
