    my friend Joerg Puresoulie found this in Detroit, "I want a guarantee", uncredited 7" acetate. Same tune as Maxine Brown. I know there's also a songwriters demo acetate by Val Simpson but from what I remember that one is very sparse.

     

    My bet it's the Apollas, what do you think?

    Just been listening to a few James Brown tracks - I have so say I've never been a fan of Jimmy or his style, and for me he isn't the God Father of soul. This is probably another (one of many) artist(s) that I have written off over the years because I didn't like his well known stuff. I know he did a couple of mid tempo records which I like but can't remember them.

     

    So, any suggestions/posts of mid tempo soul from James Brown would be of real interest to me.

     

    Thanks

    Hi Folks 

     

    I am compiling a CD for my own enjoyment - 15 vocals and 15 matching instrumentals. Problem is my brain has gone to sleep!

     

    So far on the list is Beat & Rhythm / Cigarette Ashes - You got to pay the price (Kent / Taylor) - Double Cookin / Del Satins -  If its all the same to you babe / Exus Trek - Crying over you  - Wade in the water (Shaw & Stitt) - 

     

    Any suggestions please would be much welcome......

     

    Cheers

    Hi Gordon

     

    A fantastic choice for your CD would be Jesse Fisher - Your Not Loving A Beginner/Waitng instumental version of YNLAB

    Pt. 2 of Soul Superman by The Hesitations wasn't released on 45, was it?

    Hi Matt

     

    You are right never got issued on a 7" 1 of my fav's of the album m8

    Bore the life out of me as I can't sing along to them. No soul just a beat. Thankfully I don't hear them out often but am aware they was a major part of the scene back in the day.

    Was talking to someone the other day about this and they would love to hear more played at events.

    More or less what's your thoughts ?

    Hi Bearsy

     

    On the subject of instrumentals i always throw in a FUNK instrumental in not a Northern 1 as the Funk is better imho  :yes:
