those "sad" records you play late at night
Another superb song culled from Bobby's Poet 1 album. Stunning vocals from the man himself, matched key for key by the female harmonies/backing. You just cannot beat Bobby, well, occasionally perhaps. If you think you're lonely now.

Its a beatuful video and Sammy is perfect for it. I suspct that in his interpretation of the song he’s Mr Bojangles and he’s singing about himself. Pete

After struggling for many years with drug addiction and being shunned by many people in the industry following his marriage to Sam Cooke’s widow, the King was back. His comeback albums Poet 1 and Poet 2, in the early 80’ are surely two of his finest. So, from the first album, the stunning, Just My Imagination. Bobby at his best. More to come from this album over the coming days - sticking to the sort of one pick a day!

Great pick mate - I was going to post that up later. Lyrically, it’s quite beautiful, and the vocals absolutely define Mr Womack’s unique voice. This single record really hooked my brother, whose never been into soul music. I now buy him Bobby albums for his birthday. One of my top five artists of all time. Pete

Lots of Bobby Womack. I’m also interested in the rights movement of black Americans. So I’ll pick this one for now - but there are loads. It finishes with “that” speech from Martin Luther King jnr.

He's lovely mate. I've been umming and arrring about getting a dog for the last few years. As some of you may know, I am on my own, and have a few mentalist issues, which in relation to getting a dog manifest themselves as such; What if someone breaks into my house and a), steals my dog, or b), my dog gets lose and either gets run over or lost; and; How will I cope when he dies? Those maybe quite irrational thoughts for someone who is a little better adjusted in life than me, however, nonetheless, they are things that go round and round in my head. So, I think I can get over those two by spending some money on my fairly derelict house to make it more secure, and reassuring myself that I came to terms with losing Little Smith. (my cat of 18 years). The other thing is that I can do is a mixture of taking him to work or getting a dog sitter/walker. Yep, I think its time. The benefits far outweigh the negatives. I just need to make a strategic plan. Pete

How the hell is this not massive??
That’s a sure fire rock and roll tune. Right up Martyn’s street. Pete

How the hell is this not massive??
Absolutely Len. That is horrible, nasty, filthy. That should never have been massive - anywhere. Its an affront to human decency. Round my parts Guy and Keb, that 60's mafia sound, were known as Guy Dustbin and Keb Garbage. Obviously, not mesen like. Particularly as that Keb geezer is a bit handy!

Are you saying that the Rainbows record posted above was a Chris King spin? I’m sure you’re right but it’s not sinthing I remember. Probably ok for the majority of prople on marching powder.

I'm sitting on the fence on this one. If anyone thinks that record is great then they need their ears syringing.

I bought a record from someone who lives in the UK - and they wanted paying in US dollars? I guess they might have been in the states? Pete
