Stars Of Money Various Artists (Money Records)

 

 

Label:Kent

Format:7"

Catalogue Id:LTDEP 018

 

Out 26 Jan 2015

 

 

This entry in our limited edition EP series contains four fine tracks from Money, a label famous for fabulous Los Angeles soul. Money’s biggest star was Bettye Swann, who scored an R&B hit with her debut 45, ‘Don’t Wait Too Long’. The follow-up, ‘The Man That Said No’, sold less well, despite Bettye appearing on the TV show Shindig to plug it. Its resulting scarcity has now put the original 45 into the three-figure bracket. The label’s most prolific male artist was the talented Bobby Angelle, whose stage show was reputedly a riot. Arranger Arthur Wright’s worked up some urgent instrumentation for Bobby’s Northern Soul favourite ‘Too Much For You’, and recycled the backing track for ‘I’ll Be A Soldier Boy’, which appears on vinyl for the first time here. The M&M’s & the Peanuts’ first single, ‘Lil’ Valley’, is a throwback to the doo wop days but with a bang up-to-date gang fight theme. Soul music became more sophisticated, particularly in production, by the early 70s when Delilah Moore’s ‘I’ll Just Walk Away’ was issued. Despite its sad motif, the record has a feel-good factor.

We are and they want me and you to dance to it for TOTP

 

That's cool. My kinda tempo. I can slouch on a stool jiggling my right leg whilst you do the heavy work OK?  :lol:

 

It's about time TOTP had a bit of glamour....... :thumbsup:

I chose the wrong Bobby Angelle track for that then!

 Thought you may have been consulted on it, when it was licensed,  but obviously not.

Maybe promote the Soul of Money CD instead ?

It's kinda similar to "Here Come The Girls" - Ernie K. Doe when they used it on the Boots ad about 10 years ago. I think Soul Jazz did pretty well out of that. How about re-releasing as a 45 for Record Store day? I guarantee it'll be a monster of a RSD release.... Ian D :)

Just ordered mine, but let me get this right, the Bobby Angelle track is the wrong one? its not 'I'll Be A Soldier Boy', so what is the name of the linked track?

Sorry for the confusion Mal, I'm good at that. It's as stated on the EP, the previously unreleased on vinyl 'I'll Be A Soldier Boy' same backing track as Bobby's 'Too Much'. I was flippantly suggesting I should have gone with the one in the ad to cash in on it. Cheers Ady

ahh..  sorry I should have read between the lines... btw, you describe Bobby's shows as wild, I remember sleeve notes mentioning James Brown used to catch the shows when he was in town, has anybody ever seen one of these shows, does film exist do you think?

You wouldn't be "cashing in" but "satisfying demand! "
