  1. A soul-less fool, oh deary dear. What is a boy to do? Suffering is at hand with your continued pomposity pistol.
  2. Righteousness is unequivocally on my side. Whereas you sir have goofed spectacularly!
  3. I agree on the underplayed part Vince and fortunately there are still some venues that stick to this. I would still personally rather hear the Cee Lo edit in post 23 than the funk one - maybe in the other room..
  4. Was this explanation insufficient ? I think comparing a commercial soul artist's output to a new genre of allnighter dancer is particularly relevant. I find the Best/Rugby analogy poor too be honest.
  5. No. Wrong clip. Take a listen to the 'I want You' edit. That at twenty to six blah ..
  6. I like it Ian. They played it to death on the radio, but easy on the ear all the same. Back on topic, the boy Cee Lo, wonder how many more re edits are in the mix and would they get plays?
  7. Was thinking more Sheila Ferguson in all honesty. Label is unimortant if it's a great new dancer with mass dancefloor appeal. Though in some instances, every little helps!
  8. So set the scene, 5:40am, bit sparse, shall I stick around til the end, or do an offman..? I know which would keep me out of the above and below.
  9. Well said that man. I can't disagree with what you've said, spot on. I was arguing with myself at breakfast on the point I would dance to Tony Galla at a nighter and he is not (technically) soul. At least he was on a soul label. As far as the rest of what you can get away with, or what is an inspired daring new dancer, your above posting covers this and covers the point well imo.
  10. No no like that at all really - soul is soul and funk is funk. So why play funk at a soul do? Thought that point was clear enough!
  11. Hmm, thinking maybe should have done a poll here? I'm going to be stunned if the general consensus is this man does not have soul. As I'm sure given the right material .... I wouldn't mind hearing a blast of Cunnie's 'I Want You' edit ...?
  12. For me this artist has a great soul vocal on most of his recordings so far. In terms of soulful quality in his voice, I would liken him to the late great Solomon Burke. Now all I am saying is it's a shame that the commercial div chart offerings as Simon Imber would liken it too are musically better than some of these non soul funky 'like it cos it's new and different' type records I have left nighters because of at 5.40am bored shitless.
  13. Mostly the funkier news spins Matt.. Just think he is more soulful. I don't think he should be getting spins out (though Cunnie has some of his rarer stuff), but I always preferred soul to funk.
  14. Does anyone know if all of the Secret Love demos are one sided?
  15. I made a comment on Facebook and it was suggested a thread on here might work better. "If Cee Lo Green were a sh*t load less famous, he'd be Northern Soul. Shame as a few of his offerings are, imo vastly superior to some of the emperor's new clothes currently foisted upon us".. Discuss...
  16. Have a Gordy issue of this and like the look of your Chills & Fever... Only slight snag is 45 has a crack in it - plays perfectly, but yeah does have a crack. Not sure how easy Valadiers IFAG is to find, not very I suspect..
  17. Mick H played this on Saturday night. Unsurprisingly, it packed the floor.
  18. Leicester wunnit? Remember getting the coach there from Victoria, only to discover it'd been cancelled..
  19. Priceless! WD40 sounds like a good tip, may give that a try.
  20. Insert 'at home' after 'play it' to chill the soul fuzz, but agree with you, excellent soulful dancer. That one on Ebay the other day went for £873. Worth every penny imo, timeless gem. Spanish take is awesome!
  21. Maybe you should stick with the Chemical Brothers.
  22. No problem. I wish Tony Smith would come round to your way of thinking and sell me his copy for a snip, instead of the grand + this goes for.
