DECCA

candy and the kisses - someone out there - decca

trying to track this down in the states

little charles and the sidewinders - talkin about you baby - decca

kev

loved this forever the swans in disguise

oliver norman - drowning in my own despair - decca

great track

Probably my favourite Decca 45 is 'Check Yourself' / 'Wait Until I'm Gone' (32259) from 1968.

Two excellent sides, recorded at Royal in Memphis I think.

It's also worth mentioning Debbie's earlier Decca 45 'The Last Laugh Is On The Blues' / 'I Get The Blues' (32090) from 1967.

I like the Mighty Hannibal & Jamo Thomas 45s on Decca.

Debbie taylor can do no wrong in my eyes, great choice Paul

The Debs-Its Over.Top girl group tune.

the rayons "i'm giving up"

tony ashley "i'll go crazy"

1 label number apart from each other and 2 of the best soul records ever made IMO.

Another Tony Ashley - I'll Never Be Satisfied . . . . well worth looking up

A few more while I'm on . . .

Leon Haywood - You Don't Have to See Me Cry (think Kev H played this at The Attic before I picked it up)

Bunny Sigler - For Cryin' Out Loud (nice on issue, thanks to Pete Smith)

The Patrick Bradley - Just One More Chance (still favourite inst dancer)

Grover Mitchell - Take Your Time And Love Me (great mid-tempo version of the beatier Josie version)

Grover Mitchell - I Gotta Keep Movin

and finally for now. . . . not everyone's cup of tea but such fond memories of this oldie, still like to spin it at home occasionally

Len Barry - You Baby

A few more while I'm on . . .

Leon Haywood - You Don't Have to See Me Cry (think Kev H played this at The Attic before I picked it up) ..you know it...

Bunny Sigler - For Cryin' Out Loud (nice on issue, thanks to Pete Smith)

The Patrick Bradley - Just One More Chance (still favourite inst dancer)

Grover Mitchell - Take Your Time And Love Me (great mid-tempo version of the beatier Josie version)

Wonder why 'DECCA' is written to the right of the label on this release?

Mine's on the left...

Mmmmm, there's a puzzle, especially as Kev says his is left side. I'm afraid I can't offer any insight, I'll have a close look and see if there's any other detail contained on disc.

Canadian

My two: Ray Pollard -Wanderlust (one of my faves on the label)

Little Charles - Talkin about you, babe on - Canadian Decca

SUPERB DECCA TUNE!!

I used to avidly collect Soul/Popcorn releases on Decca for many a year...so many cracking tunes!

Here's a not so well known romper stomper of a tune that the Latin fans would appreciate...kinda like Gerri Granger's 'Why can't it be tonight' on steroids with a screaming sax break!

Another Tony Ashley - I'll Never Be Satisfied . . . . well worth looking up

...as is his, 'I Can't Put You Down' / 'We Must have Love'.

Little Charles - Talkin about you, babe on - Canadian Decca

That's my fave track from that outfit

Great group...here's another, 'Twice As Much For My baby' / 'Sweet Lorene'.

Quality, quality Cross-over Soul of the highest order:

heres one i like..........

4 more from me . . . . just not as big as the one above (or perhaps over by now)

Grover Mitchell - Loving You

Danny White - Cracked Up Over You

Len Barry (again) - 1-2-3

Ray scott - The Real Thing

BRILLIANT MOD BEAT TUNE............... OTHER SIDE!!!!

One of my favourites - don't try to dance to this!

Here's a few more UK Deccas...

A decent version of Bobby Wilson, on Chain

A surprisingly good version of J.R. Bailey/Donny Hathaway

I think JM auctioned another of their 45s for a hefty sum recently

Nick

4 more from me . . . . just not as big as the one above (or perhaps over by now)

Sound advice

And another !!

Here's one from me, although the correct title is The Magic Is Gone.

larry davis - the feeling has gone - decca

...and here is the demo copy...note the 'A' in DECCA is circled to indicate the official 'A' side...clever stuff from the label designers!

'er, rare, VERY rare!

'er, rare, VERY rare!

I for one am very impressed

Vintage 100 Club/Capitol Soul Club floor shaker...prime R'n'B rumbler!

A few days ago I found these four during a spot of mid-week digging...which was nice!

'er, rare, VERY rare!

Now that is, very nice Mate. Gotta be its rarest format.

Probably...but then again some may prefer the WD!
