  1. The information, visuals, and everything else on this thread is so impressive. It's stuff like this, and of course all of the soul sourcers, which make the site what it is. Essential for soul enthusiasts. Thanks again to everyone who takes the time to contribute and share. Peter
  2. Playing some great seventies soul from Lamont; plenty to go at, lots of groove. As Sam say's ave it!
  3. Good pick Paul I've always liked this record label design. Peter
  4. She was awesome there's no denying her talent. Even "in the know" all niter goers rarely got past "A House for Sale", great dance track that it was, is. Peter
  5. Good thread - more learning for me. Thanks for this info Rick. Peter
  6. I've mentioned this before but I know a guitarist from Nottingham who used to play for Gene. I ended up on a holiday to Bulgaria with his years ago. Just saying like. Great artist - Gene, not Bob the guitarist. Made some amazing soul. Peter
  7. Bobby Taylor album is class. Having given most of my last collection away I still have a sealed copy of this. Peter
  8. I'm playing a bit of Barbara Mason this afternoon. I love her voice, so unique, there's a vulnerability about it which is so good on the ears. In my collecting days I never sought, or had any complete label or artist vinyl catalogues, but did have most of Barbara's Arctic singles. Any other fans? Favourites? Peter Mm, Mr and Mr Pinches are the posters of that vid. How's things?
  9. I'm happy to be corrected but I don't think there's an issue with selling a "boot" on here. Some are still very collectible. As long as you're clear in the description. Good to see you posting. Peter
  10. Hello mate This is the very strange world of soul music on Soul Source - take it from me, nothing is ever obvious. It looks like you're a fairly new member, so welcome to the site. I look forward to seeing your posts. Best wishes. Peter
  11. Hope I can have a second go. A man who needs a big shout is super cool soulman George Jackson. He wrote so many good records for other artists, producer, director, writer - he had it all. Mr Cool, Mississippi drawl an all. May he rest in peace. George Jackson in Muscle Shoals is well worth a listen and a listing. Peter
  12. Great stuff. I never knew about Chubby and the Turnpikes! Tavares is a much better name - made some good records with the above input I guess. Peter
  13. Good shout Chalky I picked up on this from one of Dean's "album only" show's I think. The Common Broken Heart I think was the track he played - sounds great with volume. I hope you're well buddy. Peter
  14. Just as an aside to the authenticity/rareness aspect of the thread, but a fair question I feel nonetheless; just how popular is this. How many people like it. Tin hat on and all that, but it's not something I particularly like. I'd be interested in your take - is it a big yes or a big fat no!? Thanks. Peter
  15. There's some extremely interesting information coming out of this thread. Way above my head, but still open to learning. Thanks to everyone who have contributed; the knowledge of members on here is quite something. Regards Peter
  16. I know very little of Marvin's music. Just playing this from the album. Quality The shouts for Millie Jackson are good ones. Had her on all morning. Peter
  17. Hi Chris I hope you're well my friend. Great thread, I hope you don't mind my "complimentary" comment, so; Many of our favourite artists bared their heartaches, torment, addictions and loves on their albums. It's like we had to delve into their albums to get "some" understanding of the man/woman. Keep posting everyone - this is going to be one of those "great educator" threads. Thanks Chris. Peter
  18. Because Bobby is my favourite artist I'll have to give his Poet 1 and Poet 2 albums a shout. Poet 1 marked one of Bobby's comebacks from the wilderness. The man really has some extremely diverse and prolific output. Rest in Peace Bobby. Peter Good thread - plenty of new stuff to go at already. Peter
  19. That's a good shout and one I will go with today. My "best" or "favouritisms" move with the sand. Peter
  20. What a group. Just looking at the various line ups is a star studded soul palace. Curtis, absolute genius, Jerry Butler, Leroy Hutson etc. Of course it would be extremely remiss to not mention the groups original members Sam Gooden, and Richard and Arthur Brooks. As has been said too many to single out any particular one. Their contribution to the Black American Rights movement cannot be ignored, nor can their roots, which they kept dear to, in Gospel music. From Tennessee to Chicago, it's proper soul music all the way. Good thread. Peter NB - I seem to recall starting a Curtis Mayfield thread not too long ago, he has (notwithstanding his sad passing) an amazing following on here and most other soul related places.
  21. That's a quality post Alan. I've never seen or heard of that before. Thanks for joining in pal, I hope you're well. Peter
  22. Afternoon All Some of you may know that Bobby is my number one artist; wow he did so much stuff. I'm just playing some of his stuff and his duet with Van Morrison, Peace of Mind, (2015) came to mind, so I played it. Van has that voice that really does go with Bobby. Obviously a phenomenal artist in his own right - someone I came late to due to my silly "soul music" only mindset. That being said Van has a very soulful voice and some of his cuts could be deemed to be soulful, certainly sings the blues. So, probably been done before, but whose your favourite artist, and do you have any unusual duets that they've recorded. Keep it flexible, just post anything that comes to mind, something that you're feeling today perhaps. Over to you; do the best you can. Peter
