3) The Zoo-The Commodores

Still like "The Zoo", "Goodbye..." is ok in a corny way,

Always hated "My Hearts Symphony" with a passion.

Anyway here's one for you staying with the big records of summer 74 "Human Jungle" The Fugitives.

Records You've Not Heard Out For Over 30yrs.....And Never Likely To...

A 1974 WIGAN HORROR ... JOE 90...

https://www.youtube.c...h?v=n02MMLOiM40

Not sure if you're 'on the thread' SoulEchoes.

The Jerry Butler is pure unadulterated class and a tune one would love to hear anywhere any time whereas the thread is about tunes you haven't heard for years & are not likely to.

Ooops I think you are right Mick...must have been those stellas I had last night!

Still at least wicked enjoyed hearing the tune again so glad I posted it up!

And as you said the ice man is pure unadulterated class!

I find it amazing that a lot/most of these tunes listed in the thread have been played loads in the past year at venues we've been to. 2 of the above are a good example.

Wayne fontana - Monaco ballroom

Sapphires - Grosvenor last week ( i played it)

I also heard 'soul step' not too long ago but can't remember exactly where

as a side note, many folk say the oldies scene plays the same tired old tunes. . . . obvioulsy not the case if this thread is anything to go by

Much too good a record to be on same thread as most of the horrors listed.

You sure it was on a Verve album ?

ooops sorry all we seem to have a double thread going...didn't mean to poach honest!

Think it was verve...then again memory is not what it was...I'll dig it out and have a look.

"Supertime"- Golden World Strings, methinks it was a bootleg but don't know who by?

Always though Gwen & Ray was a brilliant tune. Fat Man At The Go Go is Butch Baker which is also a good dance tune.

What about It's Too Late - Bobby Goldsboro - yuck.....

Mick

Thanks Mick,you learn something new every day,what do you think to my other additions? Stewart............

Actually, most of your selections are O.K. so perhaps they ought to be heard out rather than not apart of course from Roger Collins (pass me the sick bag).
