  1. The BBC could release that but it might be Cashing In
  2. Warsaw is definitely Poland's most soulful City, Magpie, I've looked around Krakow myself to no avail. You can tune into my show on Sunday's ....it's a great City though and you'll have a great time https://www.facebook.com/radiokampusfunknsoul
  3. Junior Walker & the All Stars version of Way Back Home is about nostalgia for the South, it's one of my favourite songs
  4. If you have been googling you could have also googled the DG wiki.... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dave_Godin
  5. Didn't DG and Mick Jagger know each other at school ? I recall a story about Mick asking Dave about meeting Marvin Gaye on an early tour and getting a curt reply... it's clear there was bad blood. Also not sure the Stones covered 'loads of black American stuff' without giving credit... any examples ?
  6. Chi Lites, Have you Seen Her ! Spoken Intro to beat all others

  12. many as above but these are the ones i bought at the time , played to death and have kept me company for all my life pleasure - ohio players cosmic slop - funkadelic standing on the verge of getting it on - funkadelic spinners what's going on - marvin gaye let's get it on - marvin gaye trouble man - marvin gaye there's a riot going on - sly and the family stone music of my mind - stevie wonder syreeta understanding - bobby womack dells vs dramatics dramatics - whatcha see is whatcha get johnnie taylor - super taylor james brown - the payback aretha franklin - young gifted and black motown memories ( compiliation, may not count )
  13. godzillas below dig about saying a few words is probably aimed at me so I've done an edit to include a few words about my favourite funk 45 - it's probably from the more commercial side of the funk spectrum bit i think BT Express are one of the very top Funk groups of all time and Can't Stop Groovin probably is their finest - I've posted the 3 minute plus 45 version ( not the 5 minute plus album track ), I have very happy memories of dancing and playing this record over the years and although familiar and appreciative of the work of James Brown, George Clinton, Sly Stone etc I consider that when played loud this is one of the funkiest and most feel good records of all time... how's that ?
  14. "‹like an earlier poster it was Tired go Being Alone hitting the UK charts and Top of the Pops that turned my life's musical path in the direction of Soul, I was buying Motown and Reggae by then but this was something different and something I had to have more of.... i've strayed from that path from time to time but i'm back there now and i'll always be grateful to Reverend Al i've been to a few of his concerts and remember being irritated by people whooping and cheering loudly mid song every time Al hit one of his extended notes, meaning you get never really got to hear him sing a song all the way through properly i've always had the feeling that Southern Soul purists dismiss Al Green, probably because he was too popular and his 'eccentric' singing style the end part of 'Let's Get Married' is probably my favourite Al Green
