Paul Mooney was kind enough to send me a recording of Gone With The Wind Is My Love, instrumental version, my goodness it is absolutely FANTASTIC, I mean the vocal is brilliant but his instrumental is just as good, seriously awesome!

:lol: YOU ARE JOKING , OF COURSE :thumbup:

To be truthful, I've never heard to vocal played out, just the instrumental played by Poke at Cleethorpes circa 1982 as the Noteables Midnight Serenade, maybe the tail end of every other record being an instrumental?

Grover Washington Jr..."Soulful Strut"

Ann Perry..."Thats The Way He Is"

Exus Trekyes.gif

Don't get it Peteg.gif Vocal & backing together make it seriously awesome & a record that still drags me onto a dancefloor gammy knee 'n all, if I heard it out I think I'd just about tap my foot to it wishing I could hear the vocalyes.gif

1) Cigarette Ashes

3)6 x 6 thumbsup.gif

6x6 never had a legit vocal so there fore does not qualify.... does it?

Ben-The Funk Brothers. Found in a skip in 8 mile Detroit....shhh.gif

Bobby Wells The Psychedelic Theme (but I love Let's Cop A Groove too, so I'm cheating).

Not sure how The Magicians is dire Simon, fair enough if you prefer the instrumental but it's a full on great vocal group performance with excellent lyrics; technically the Waves 'Is It Love Baby' was the original I think.

Pete there is a Rita inst out on Kent Select, I'm not sure if that's what Paul sent you.

6x6 never had a legit vocal so there fore does not qualify.... does it?

there is a one off studio acetate (Jobete) with a vocal so technically it does exist.

Is that the one that was released as the Tandels on Kent (great version - and as the Kent 45 is the original release, can be played out as OVO n'est-ce pas)? Or is there yet another version?

BTW for a really bad version, check out "At The Disco (Strings A Go Go)" dunno the artist but I think it was a tailormade on Black Magic :thumbup:

Yeah sorry the group were later called the Waves but were the Tandells at the time of recording the original from which the backing track was used as Double Cookin'. Damn right on the OVO too.

Gallop-Defo

l Belong To You-Bag Of Shite! :thumbup:

Was this a 'Tailor-made' vocal made for the scene? :wicked:

Thought it was an unreleased 60's track?

Actually I prefer the vocal to the inst in this instance

You and the Paradox :rolleyes: - leave it will you:laugh: .Liberty - Girl you better wake up.

You and the Paradox rolleyes.gif - leave it will you:lol: .

:D:lol::lol:

But it is the best Northern instrumental ever, fact! Nothing else has those fat horns, that tempo, the break. I know not of anything else that comes close.

It's a tough task for an instrumental to be soulful, few manage it. This record has it in aces! :thumbup:
