RIP Dean Parrish,forever part of the NS scene it's really good that he came to know of his popularity in Britain & had the opportunity to appear live here but it's a shame that I'm On My Way sold a million copies in the years after its release on U.K. Records & Dean never received a penny in royalties
Gloria and Towanda Barnes are the same singer though the lp version is a different recording/mix from the single on A & M I think the A & M is an original perhaps someone who knows for sure could tell us
I bought this album in the seventies just to get you don t mean it before I realised there was a single djs probably only want the single and the re issue will effect the price e.g. I would buy the cheaper format now as it's the music i m interested in not what label it's on
Always hated Condition Red Seven Day Lover one of the greatest records ever played on the scene a SOUL record not just a northern soul record no what I mean
Actually it was Dexy s Midnight Runners singing Jackie Wilson Said and according to Kevin Rowland it was nt a cock up it was his idea to use the Jocky Wilson video for a laugh
Too many to choose from really but here goes my favourites r Otis Redding David Ruffin Levi Stubbs J J Barnes Jackie Wilson Edwin Starr Also in my opinion Levi Stubbs ' vocal performance on the acapella version of Ask The Lonely is the best of all time truly awesome
I ve always liked Los Canarios and Keanya Collins but the rest are mostly dire particularly What Love Brings Kenny Bernard sounds out of tune was nt it reissued on Pye Disco Demand with Glad All Over - Leon Young Strings on the flip side heard that at the Torch which just shows every venue played awful pop records at times
One for sale on discogs for a grand and that s the asking price not the result of an auction also see Try My Love went for £800 surely the average collector can t afford these prices unless there selling records from their collections to raise the. Cash
Apologies dave if people think I m u I should ve used a pseudonym When I post in future I ll make it clear it's the DM from Stoke on Trent Unless u r. Also from Stoke lol
