Soul Sam tends to play a strange mix of classic oldies and more modern
stuff in batches of three records.
He played things like;
Dells - Run For Cover - Cadet
(Opened with this - he knows how to get the Brighouse crowd on side!)
The Ringleaders - Baby What Happened To Our Love - MPac
The Group - I Dont Like To Lose - Prophonics
Bobby Hutton - Lend A Hand - Abc
Willie Hutch - Love Runs Out - Dunhill
(You dont think he played these two off the same 70s reissue on ABC do
you?)
Christine Cooper - Heartaches Away My Boy - Parkway
Bobby Hutton - Come See, Whats Left Of Me - Phillips
(One of my current home listening faves!)
Al Williams - I Am Nothing - La Beat
Eddie Foster - I Never Knew - IN
Mr Soul - What Happened To Yesterday - Genuine
Temptations - Truly Yours - Motown
Jimmy Ruffin - I Got To Let You Go - Motown
Jimmy Ruffin - He Who Picks A Rose - Motown
Jimmie Bo Horne - I Cant Speak - Dade
Bernie Williams - Ever Again - Bell
Ann Sexton - Youve Been Gone Too Long - Impel
(A BIG Brighouse fave)
Terry Callier - Look At Me Now - Cadet
Wade Flemons - Jeanette - Ramsel
(Play this if you want a Ritz instant floor filler!)
Betty Wright - Man Of Mine - Alston
Im not that au fait with a lot of the modern stuff that Soul Sam plays.
He did play - Bull - Let Bygones Be Bygones - which was a first airing
supposedly, after being played by Tim Brown on Jazz FM
Tony Banks is the resident DJ and host and usually plays stuff from his
current playlist;
A C Reed - My Babys Been Cheatin (I Know) - Cool
The Vibrations - Cause Youre Mine - Epic
Gloria Jones - Come Go With Me - Uptown
Millie Jackson - A House For Sale - Spring
Junior Walker - Tune Up - Soul
Junior Walker - Aint That The Truth - Soul
(Believe it or not - a couple actually line danced to this - and they
didnt look as stupid as you might have expected!)
Tommy Navarro - I Cried My Life Away - Dejac
Etta James - Seven Day Fool - Argo
Ace Spectrum - Dont Send Nobody Else - Atlantic
David Ruffin&Eddie Kendricks - I Couldnt Believe It - RCA
I think Ive credited most of the tracks to the relevant DJ, but one or two
may be mixed up and perhaps I imagined I heard some - I didnt take notes!
Just listening to Kev Roberts on the Big AM - we dont get much feedback
on
this show do we? - its a good 2 hour soul show .
Hes just playing Channel 3 -The Sweetest Thing This Side Of Heaven - Dakar
Whilst Ive been typing hes moved on to Ernest Moseley - Stuborn Heart -
La-Cindy
Not bad eh!
