posstot Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 I love all the O'jays 60's stuff, Imperials' output mainly, but there Bell recordings too, but not really a fan from Neptune onwards. So on from that...here are what i like of theree output. I'll never let you go. A solid detroit production, with a heavy mid tempo beat, much in the same vein as "I'll never forget you". It wont hurt. This track appeared on the flip of "You can't keep a good man down" The Gentlemen Four on Wand a 450+ squid tune, and it ain't a match for this version by the O'jays, and its 20 to 30 quid at the most. Brilliant mid pace-mid tempo Group vocal with great detroit feel production again. Let it all out. A mid pace, So Soulful, group vocal again. But more of a 'big city' feel in production. Yet an arabian, almost, feel to the Arrangement brings this into the mellow side of tings. A Beautiful track. Girl Machine. WoW WeE i wanna pee!! starts off with a guitar riff solo, and off it goes, with strong arrangement from Mr.H.B Barnhum chugging along with a good old fashioned "northern" feel and a doo wop tinged vocal backing. Yet it drives on, with breaks in all the right places. A driving early "Northern" Dancer. Whip it on me baby. More H.B production with a Basic Latin feel, but a driving beat and vocals to match. This is a WINNER!! How tunes like this are negleted, for the whole, is beyond me. That's Enough. A slightly earlier release 62? or 3. Again more chugging rhthym from it's arranger...H.B again. A bit of a winner with the RnB crowd. How does it feel. As above. There's a couple more I'm sure, yet i can't reccollect at the Mo. All these above tunes are on Imperial by the way. None of them bank breakers and well worth the Moo-lar!! Mike. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
