250 notes waiting here for a minty!

Indeed a nice tune!!

Thought you were gonna say you were a distant relation for a moment!

Or maybe this guy? Black Radio DJ... Although he was in Detroit! Bit more likely though! Did record track below: Joltin' Joe Howard - Baby Won't You Change Your Mind (Kudo 666) https://www.soulfulde...oe%20howard.htm ""Joltin' Joe" Howard Joe Howard was born in Colorado but spent much of his early life in small towns in Texas. Eventually, his family moved to Waco, Texas. His first job as an announcer was at Houston's KNUZ, a radio station that played music for black audiences. Later, Howard found work at KYOK, also in Houston. By 1954, Howard had joined WAKE, a general-market radio station in Atlanta, Georgia. At WAKE, Howard read commercials, news and other announcements. Howard was known for his articula- tion and speaking ability, and WAKE's white audience never knew that he was an African American. Nevertheless, Howard was fired when a major sponsor found out he was African American and demanded that WAKE let him go. Howard landed a job at WERD, also in Atlanta, and the nation's first black-owned radio station. In 1956, Howard left WERD to take a job at WCHB located in Inkster, Michigan. At WCHB, Howard was an instant success, as listeners liked his announcing style and personality. Later, he moved over to WJLB, another Detroit, Michigan area radio station, where he continued to make waves over the air."

Was a white trombonist called Joe Howard but very much doubt it's him!! Big band era stuff his domain!

Anyone got a copy of this Stafford standard for sale?

Now posted up in refosoul!

And why are they always from Belguim? I'm always weary about buying stuff from Belguim these days...I feel sorry for the genuine sellers there!

I wish that Stafford TOTW sounds did get played at oldies nights but in my experience it's always the same tired old overplayed sounds..yes I like them but don't want to hear Frank Wilson, Superlatives etc yet another time at a do. Hey not being contraversial...I do realise the scene is a broad church but if I heard Stafford Sounds at Oldies nights then I might turn up! Oldies doesn't seem to include Stafford sounds for some reason..they seem to still be considered new 6T's 25 years on! Jonzy

Reminds me of my early disco days when i was only 18 at the the local Tiffany's trying (and usually failing) to get laid on a Saturday night in my bowie bags, white socks, patent leather shoes and shirt (with the pin through the collar) and tie with tie clip lol On a more soulful note I adore Ruby Andrews version....so soulful I want to cry when I hear it ! One of favourite cheapies...just not played enough IMHO. And also what about her other take on the track on her Everybody Saw You' Album....again totally totally awesome! (think this is what you are talking about guys)

One on ebay https://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=180533104356&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT Finishes 16.27

Welcome mate...see you on 6th Spook..must owe you a beer!

OOOh...I quite like that!...no good to me though as I always sing along when I'm dancing and my Portugese ain't what it should be! But you are right...nice backing track with a nice 60's soulful voice could have gone big I reckon! ...then again more Herp Albert domain perhaps? Got a translation? Might record my own version! Done it myself...good old google translator! There could be someone in the world To tell and to tell what he did When he saw that everything had To live and not live If I was not sure what I felt If everything is far from what I wanted What do I need to know What do I need to know When we look at it is too late See the marks that were left behind on the way And then still have to live Looking say everything with nothing to say to say There could be someone in the world To tell and to say what he did When he saw that everything had To live and not live If everything I did think about being happy one day If time passes and my life is so empty What do I need to know What do I need to know If I could turn back time (To be happy) I need to go back in time (To be happy) If I could turn back time (To be happy) I need to go back in time

bargain Spook!...already got one but otherwise I would have taken this excellent Keb Stafford haunting allnighter sound off ya hands!

Please can some promoter do a reunion there please...just like Dave T's 25 year Stafford do then my life would be complete and I could die happy! I'm not joking either...come on Mr Promoter...and you'd make a fortune to boot!

I assume you are on about the Oddfellows.....who used to play it? Adam?

I gather bearsoul might know the answer to this one!

Wow here's an old thread! Not as old as this though!...Just found this flyer in the drawer. Was indeed a great nighter...something about dancing around on a pier! Remember dancing to Astral Trip in the warm up room before the nighter started!

One of the best cheapies around!...class!
