Doing the next Cheap as Chips night on Friday 25th June and if the last one was anything to go by it'll be a stormer.

Anyway, I've got my Cheap as Chips playbox but I've just added two more delicious tunes to it today and would love to hear your favourite Cheapies. Any with soundclips would be greatly appreciated.

My top three at the moment are:

Alfreda Brockington - Your love has got me chained and bound - Phil-La (been around for ever and just got itself back in my playbox)

Afro Blues Quintet Plus one - La la la la la - Mira (my tip for the next year if you like your latin - got the makings of a monster)

Jeanette Williams - Stuff - Backbeat (every home should have this - would punch a hole through concrete)

Cheers and enjoy.

Chicago Top 3 Cheaps As Chips:

The Admirations "Dont leave me" One der Ful

The Admirations " Wait Til I Get To Know You" One der Ful

The Dells "Make Sure" Cadet

You should still be able to pick all three up for under £20 the lot.

David

Billy Stewart " What have I done " Chess

The Sensations " Lonely World " Way Out

TONY OWENS YOU GOT TO PAY THE PRICE LISTENING POST -

Lew Kirton - Come On With It - Marlin

LEW KIRTON - COME ON WITH IT - MARLIN -

Nothing better than topics like this...

I have been hunting down these type of tunes all my life.... .. All mid tempo and oh so soulful.... Thats the mood i am in right now...

Like Chalky said, 3 a day for about a month should do it. ha ha...

Aint been through the whole thread, hope they aint been brought up already..

Two tons of love..... Brown and Beautiful plus a really nice flip too.... Bad situation in a beautiful place.... Kapp records.....

Betty Everett... Danger.. fantasy records...

Kenny Young... Aint it funny what love can do..... share records... its the flip side of leave those young girls alone.... very overlooked tune by many, its blown many many people away on first listen.... The type of tune that would make a great ender, in the vain of walk with a winner i guess..

ps.. busy with work.. All in refo

I know you said 3, but can we have 3 a day

Sounds good to me young Chalkster:D:D

Cheers

Martyn

I can see this topic turning into an epic .. It could dwarf the Levine threads for sure .....

If there anyway of putting a runnning list together after every page??? then folk can post up tunes with duplicating, as it grows not all will have time to read through the whole thread i guess..

Is there an easy option... Just a thought....

Just 3 of the top of my head

Three good picks there Chalky, Lew Kirton's a great double sider with "Do What you Want, Be Who You are" on flip. and Frankie Sanders a great double sider two with the sublime "Blues Time In Birmingham". regarding Frankie, if ya stretch it a bit more and go for the Sho-Me release ya get the extended 5 min. cut of "Blues Time"

Thanks Mart

Thanks Mart

No problem Rob. Just glad to put a few of you onto it while it's still cheap.

Gonna give it some hammer in the Modern room at the Bridlington weekender as it went down a storm at Morecambe for me & more so for Dodger.

Big question is though will you be brave enough to play it in the Northern room

I think it will follow "So many sides of you" a treat !

Does anyone have a sound clip of the different version.

few different colour labels for this as well.

great record.

Hi Kev, just played the 2 releases together and they are in fact the same. Sorry for the miss-info'

Just a note: They have different flips.

Bloody hell the selections have been magnificent since the thread started. As I started it I suppose I do have the right to plug the Cheap As Chips night on the 25th June in London. It's in the soul night section of Soul Source. Been doing these off and on for over 4 years now and we've had some brilliant nights playing cheap and superb soul. The good thing is the djs play what they love and it's from the heart. Would love to do this more regularly..

Hope to see as many as can make it and even if you can't I'll get all of the guests to post their set lists from the night.

Here's another few from me
