any info on this tune please?

the jades-i know the feelin-poncello

how tough is it to find and what might i expect to pay for it?

and does it get played out anywhere?

cheers!

Hard to find ... around £150 now and climbing. Does get played intermittently but still not widely known. Serious dj's/collectors know it .... the chequebook type dj's (ie the ones that are spoonfed tunes or have to wait until someone else breaks a tune) probably don't! What a monster 45....hope you get one. PS One just finished on the bay at $203 ,about right)

$204.50, Phil, do you ever listen to me bruv

I had a bid at that one as Im trying to collect Poncello stuff

Just as an aside are there a few Jades?

I gather this ain't the same band that did Lucky fellow, where it's at, hotter than fire etc etc

If so how many bands were called the Jades?

Still gets an occasional spin at Solid Hit Soul London

Was fairly popular 2/3 years back probably more so in the smaller clubs rather than allniters..........I think correct me if I'm wrong.........I normally am

There are a few Northern tracks on the label in between the Deep stuff...can recommend these three for starters:

Might be totally off on one here due to premature aging and a stonking hangover, but I'm pretty damn sure this came to light following a review by Ion Tsakalis in a fanzine whose name escapes me, around late 80's. Got mine from Soul Bowl for something daft like £5, bought blind on the strength of the big chap's glowing recommendation!

£150? Jeeeeeeez!

You're not too wrong, Alan...was indeed around and cheap for a while (weren't they al!?!), but it went to ground (as they do into collections).

However, that said, it has the quality to shine through, so I for one am not overly shocked or surprised to see a three-figure tag on it.

However, it isn't 'Classic Oldie' sounding enough to ever go big, but it does deserve a few spins every now and then for sure...imo.

Have all 3 of these Poncello winners but the Jades took by far the longest to pick up, thanks again to Jocko for that

Hello mate, chances are it was me playing it on your tapes! It is a right old growler of track, isn't it? Typical 60's newies tackle, ie rough as a badger's arse!

edit: Hi Andy. Yep, a powerhouse badger's arse!

There was a thread on " I know the feeling " a while back....the best description of the tune as far as I can remember went something like this.....Can you imagine a steam engine hurtling down a very steep hill uncontrolably at 100mph, while the driver does a wild evil uncontrolable laugh, at the same time stoking the engines boiler with more coal urging the steam engine to go faster....

Can't remember who put that up but it pretty much hits the nail on the thread.

Yep defo one of the many beautys that you used to play Alan

By the way wasn't trying to say it was only popular 2/3 years like most things they've all been played before just that it was getting plays as an underplayed sound

Dave, Yes, first time I heard this was at SHS. THink Stuart played it early on.

The Jaedes, who recorded a hard to get LP on Athena. Pick of the tunes for me are: What'll it take to make you happy, Uh, Uh, what did I do and another version of Colour him father'. Think the only one from the album thats been released on 45 is Uh, Uh ............

I believe that picturesque description was one of Nick 'Driveller' Brown's creations in Shades of Soul...but it was for the Captions 'Hit It' (90% certain it was anyway!), not the Jades.

A man with impeccable taste...I believe that copy came from me

After checking I see I also spun it at the Capitol Soul Club on December 13th 2002

Good questions...wish I knew

What about the one on Capitol, 'Ain't It Funny What Love Can Do' from the pen of Van McCoy...classy!

That was mine Mike though I would have followed Stuart in that 1st hour so possible you thought my first was his last

You gonna jump in the car with Des for Solid Hit 3rd December ?

Indeed he has Mr Flynn indeed he has

Don't think I've ever heard him play Jades/Poncello

Thinking back, I seem to remember Mr Clarke playing this at Yate in the late 70's
