This is one of my favourite CDs. Sad they haven't got the recognition they deserve. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Unmasked-Masqueraders/dp/B0001O2OAY/ref=sr_1_4?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1498766818&sr=1-4&keywords=masqueraders

I saw him on the David Guest tour and Going Out of my Head and Take Me Back were amazing

also £3 in FOPP

cool video

I remember a few years ago having soul CDs from the likes of Kent, Outta Sight etc arriving on a weekly basis. In the last year or so this seems to have dried up and there appear to be very few new releases. Is there much left to release?

I can't find an official Lovelites/Patti and the Lovelites compilation out there. I have this https://www.allmusic.com/album/sisters-of-soul-the-sweeter-voices-of-soul-mw0001437939 and it looks like a boot. There are some cracking tunes on it but it is far from complete. What are the chances of a proper compilation from Kent or others?

I seem to remember Supership by GB was a big Sam's sound

A few I remember Are You Ready for This The Brothers Keep on Running Away Bits N Pieces I Can't Help Myself Johnny Ross I'm Shaft RB Freeman Cochise Paul Humphrey Magic's in the Air Ronnie Walker (played about 5 times one week) Flasher Mistura Right On Al De Lory The Trip Dave Mitchell Gameplayers Dooley Silverspoon Jaws Lalo Sciffrin etc, not all great

Nice Review in The Independent https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/music/reviews/back-to-the-river-more-southern-soul-stories-1961-1978-album-review-a6783531.html

For a $48 (including postage) order from the USA for CDs, I have got to pay £13 WTF !!!! £8 of which is a Royal Mail handling charge

cheap again on Amazon

mmmmm now £69.99 on Amazon, think I'll wait to see if it comes down again

On Now, Murder at a Northern Soul Allnighter BBC1

Saw the show last night in Stevenage, highlight for me was Little Anthony he sang Going out of my head, Tears on my pillow and an unscheduled Take me Back - spine tingling stuff! Gwen Dickey and Eddie Holman were also stand outs. A bit disappointed with the Temptations review with Dennis Edwards and Candi Staton but overall an enjoyable evening out.

that's not a good flyer - doesn't say when it's on!!

Just been listening to the Van McCoy Songbook on Kent. What a cracking CD it is, one of the best of the song writer series, particularly for soul fans. It says in the liner notes there will be a volume 2, when will that be out? can't wait

Just spotted on Soul Brother website that a load of old Motown Albums are to be released on CD in Japan , Amazon have some as well. including Best of the Fantastic Four!
