Was legally repressed on a 12" a few years ago for a film soundtrack & was tucked away on the b side so missed by most. Without a doubt the 12" is the best way to own this as the sound quality is far better than the 7" and also the album cut. Sorry but can't remember the label details at the moment but if anyone wants to know shout up & I'll dig it out & get back to you.

And this is for the people who think the Cee Lo track sounds a bit familiar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUvddCEXNO4

Sorry Ian, my mistake. Nice avatar BTW

Right then seeing as I have been mentioned a few times on this thread lets see where we are. Firstly I have never or would ever suggest that Cee Lo Green is a Northern Soul singer even though pop singers like Paul Anka & Eurovision artists quite clearly are. Now that should have got your attention . What I will say though is Cee Lo Green is a great singer with a very Soulful voice. Several people have levelled critisism at him for being a 'pop artist' but why? Did you level the same critisism at Levi Stubbs, Aretha Franklin or Marvin Gaye for example. Now I'm not suggesting that Cee Lo Green is in the same division as these legends but given time who knows? The new single of Cee Lo's - I Want You was actually recorded over a year ago & a lot of people were playing it on the Modern scene around that time including myself. The version that most were playing was off a radio rip that was originally played by Gilles Peterson on radio 1 & it had a spoken request intro as you can hear on the link below. https://www.mixcloud.com/ilo/cee-lo-green-i-want-you-radio-rip/ The version I was & still am playing is virtually the same but without the spoken intro & before you ask a friend of a friend got it me & also cut it onto vinyl for me. If you listen to it on the link you will notice it is nearly the same as the recently released version but slightly faster & also does not have the same ending with the strange alien like noises on it. Also my version has a rather nice b side but thats another story so don't bother asking please. Maybe I'll give it a spin at the Scarborough weekender (shameless plug ). It might be worth looking for some of the clips of Cee Lo on youtube when he guested with Jools Holland to hear some of the comments about how his all time musical hero is none other than Jackie Wilson (another pop artist or a Soul legend?). As for Ian's comments about Cee Lo being Northern IMO he clearly is not on this track but if someone is either daft enough or brave enough to play it at a Northern venue then again who knows? One thing I will say though is that there are several tracks out there that I would class as 'new Northern Soul' but thats another thread if you are ready for it. Not going to get into any silly arguments on this as I think all that needed saying has already been said so not going to reply to any comments (unless you really get my back up ).

Timi Yuro. Not a blue eye in sight.

God I hate the term 'blue eyed soul'. Could someone please tell me why every single white soul singer has to have blue eyes? Suppose David Bowie had a hit on the Northern scene, would we refer to him as a blue & brown eyed singer???

Javells & No Smoking - Ta Ta Now't To Say Seriously though a couple from me would be Jimmy Mack - My World Is On Fire & Don Gardner - Cheating Kind but if I was feeling mischeivous I'd say Lou Pride Comin Home In't Mornin or the Dells - Your Song.

Andy Jacksons 'Infiniti' show has indeed found a new home on tulip radio on 107.5 FM in the Spalding area and also live online. The show has now moved to Thursday evenings at 7pm & the usual fun & games will be happening on Soul Source in the chatroom as before. Same great music though.

Bobby Kline & Patsy Cline - Brother & Sister

Wouldn't be your copy by any chance would it Paul?

Is this just a Northern weekender or a multi room event? Asking as it is the same weekend as the Soulful Dance event just up the coast at Lytham St Anne's.

Everything has it's price Russ Still not 100% sure who it is though. Pokes copy was credited to Richie Parker & mine that the refosoul clip is from is credited to Aaron Neville. Must admit though that on the rare occasions that I play it out I pitch it down a bit

But has Butch heard the Aaron Neville / Richie Parker 70's acetate version ?? Richie Parker - Just Like The Weather - Acetate

Probably yet another 'only 1 known copy Len Barry album'.....

Now sorted. Thanks. Mart...

Ouch. Just seen the copy on Top Dog. Want it but not that badly.

Well done Nev. Now you have just driven a wedge straight into the heart of the Crossover scene Myself personally, well I'm into Soulful Crossover House & uptempo Modern Beat Ballads as long as they are rare & played on the Northern scene.

Oops! Still it'll be interesting to see if anyone comes up with any more similaraties.

Just listening to the new Nicola Conte album called Love & Revoloution & I got to track 10, the title track & well have a listen for yourselves. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGT1QhMPLxA Wonder if it'll get carved & covered up in years to come Anyone got any more new 'similar' releases?

Loveman Ronnie Stokes - Touch You Again 12" wanted please. PM with price & info please & I'll get back to you asap. Ta for looking.

Not really sure if this should be in here as could also be in the AATS forum but had to post it somewhere as a joy to see. The link is to Johnny Spencers website & there are some beautiful records on there but even better still is some of the artwork on the covers. Be sure to click on his links at the bottom of each page but be warned as you could be there for hours. Enjoy. https://www.johnnyspencer.info/

My 2nd nomination must go to none other than Mickey Moonshine. Turns out he can morph himself into Alvin Stardust, Chris Rainbow, Ben Cross, 3 blokes called Paul, Michael & Curtis, Paul Nicholas & some fellow who can run very fast & we still don't know who he is. Now thats pretty strange to me

Seems that most of you seem to think that white folks are strange for some silly reason My nomination goes to a musical genius. Step forwards & take a bow Mr Clinton.

Very rarely call anyone on this scene a legend but will make an exception in the case of Little Anthony & the Imperials. Sounded good back in the day & still do now. I Ain't Fallin from the You'll Never Know CD album from a couple of years ago.
