Guest Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Gareth is certainly one of my favourite dj's, his taste is right on the money....Class tune. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Billy Freemantle Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 A virtuoso vocal performance without a doubt. Despite that, this record does nothing for me at all. Compared to other Gospel tunes that got picked up by NS, such as the Kindly Shepherds and Clara Ward, this is tame stuff vibe wise. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Kind of record that reminds me why I toured the country trying to hear new record, Record of year for me in new Northern type of chart!!! Anychance of playlist (appreciate wrong thread for that), from Gareth, love to hear sort of tunes you play. Cheers Jock Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulsmith Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 Well let me throw caution to the wind and beg to disagree. Its just too frantic. On a more positive note, this turned up on a cd at the week-end. This is what floats my boat......... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulsmith Posted July 3, 2005 Share Posted July 3, 2005 I also heard Dobie Grey - What A Way To Go again this week-end - for the first time in 20 years. Any one able to post up a sound file, please? Col. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 4, 2005 Share Posted July 4, 2005 Benny Harper is great, but a bit messy and it feels too long. A frantic and messy tune like this shouldn't be more than maximum around 2:30 IMO. Many records suffer from being too long, they are good for the first half or two thirds and then they just run on without much thought behind it for the remaining time in order to get as much 'value for money' for their studio time or something. I know, I am very demanding... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Haven't seen him in years. Anybody know what he's up to now? Can still see him clear as day peeking out his curtains, telling us all to "Shhhhh..... they're out there......!"
