Rosemary Bain "Please Consider" Popcorn 1993 Donna Gardier "I'll Be There" Virgin 1990 (Fond Memories Of Upnorth Weekenders) Billy John "Willing Ways" Kaption (Nice 70s sounding Indi production not great)
December 1, 200519 yr Nick Allen - Need More Time on T.I.M.E. 12" Girf Didn't realise this thread was still going........................... Nick Allen a BEAST of a 12" and one that surely will go huge (one day) Very similar in feel and tempo to 'So many sides of you' (and before you reply Gav, no the vox aint as good as BW but whose is????) Cheers Steve
December 1, 200519 yr Did anyone mention KENNY HAMBER Never Found a Girl on Million Dollar 12" ? Class! Edited December 1, 200519 yr by cesar
December 2, 200519 yr Not a favourite, but just digging through some vinyl & quite liked: Tomorrow's Wish -My Love With You / You Happened To Me - Coastal Records. I forgot how much the A side sounds like Tearra - Loving You
December 2, 200519 yr Author or Garfield Fleming 'Don't Send Me Away' Oh God the Garfield 12 was a bad one from me , as it played ok at home . Got it out to deejay and it skipped all over the place ..Lots of whistles and clapping for the wrong reason
December 2, 200519 yr Love this thread Billy John "Willing Ways" Kaption (Nice 70s sounding Indi production not great) Nice record. Still looking for a copy
December 2, 200519 yr ARCHIE BELL - HARDER AND HARDER....BECKET RECORDS bought a copy of this about 6-7 years ago,seem to remember it gettin a few spins a while ago...great little chooonnnn IMO...... although ive not heard it played out for a while.
December 2, 200519 yr Nice record. Still looking for a copy I had around 200 of them that went to Dave Thorley, speak to him if you have no joy let me know !
December 2, 200519 yr Not a favourite, but just digging through some vinyl & quite liked: Tomorrow's Wish -My Love With You / You Happened To Me - Coastal Records. I forgot how much the A side sounds like Tearra - Loving You I like this un - it reminds of another fave of mine 'Gifted Four' 'Are you choosing' on Ham-Sem
December 2, 200519 yr jason, i never accept anything you say as the truth, since you tried to convert me to the dark side, FUNK i think you called it Wise man . Cordial 12" ain't bad. Not entirely convinced by the lead's voice but not a bad effort.
December 2, 200519 yr ANOTHER ONE I LIKE IS LARRY WU-LET ME SHOW YOU, BOUGHT IT AT THE FIRST BLACKPOOL SOUL WEEKENDER , ALL THE BETTER FOR HAVING STEVE DAVIS(SNOOKER PLAYER) STOOD NEXT TO ME, ASKING ME IF IT WAS ANY GOOD? TOLD HIM "THINK IT'S OUT OF YOUR PRICE RANGE MATE" HE LAUGHED!!!
December 2, 200519 yr A twelver, but strictly speaking an EMI mini LP by Color Blind containing the track "Crazy". Anybody know if it got a release otherwise? Just listening to the 12 of George Benson - On Broadway ...........nice!
December 3, 200519 yr Author A twelver, but strictly speaking an EMI mini LP by Color Blind containing the track "Crazy". Anybody know if it got a release otherwise? Just listening to the 12 of George Benson - On Broadway ...........nice! Think Ive got the UK 12 on Color Blind ...
December 3, 200519 yr I'm with you on this one Derek, top top record, her best record IMHO ANDY MANN 3rdded, f***ing fantastic piece of music, Jim O'Hara found a few of these and spread the word. proper soul music, seems strange on 12" though, anyone know the year and history of it?? Was a 12" (horrible pink vinyl mind) of this in ebay other week £5 and not one bid, was going to post link here but didn't want to in case someone was watching for bargain. Have to look out couple of 12"'s for Mr Gasher today so will find this and play it a few 100 times I think. Cheers Jock
December 3, 200519 yr Think Ive got the UK 12 on Color Blind ... Like wise Simon but just can not find it
December 3, 200519 yr Author ANOTHER ONE I LIKE IS LARRY WU-LET ME SHOW YOU, BOUGHT IT AT THE FIRST BLACKPOOL SOUL WEEKENDER , ALL THE BETTER FOR HAVING STEVE DAVIS(SNOOKER PLAYER) STOOD NEXT TO ME, ASKING ME IF IT WAS ANY GOOD? TOLD HIM "THINK IT'S OUT OF YOUR PRICE RANGE MATE" HE LAUGHED!!! Always reminds of Kev Griffin early 1984 (Steve G's good mate) saying to me. I'm going commercial Simon, like Steve Walsh and this is my power play Larry Wu ...Brilliant Edited December 3, 200519 yr by Simon M
December 3, 200519 yr A few from me Phil Hurtt - Giving It Back Grace Little - The Love I Lost Taana Gardner - It's You I Need James Ingram - Lean On Me Jimmy Young - Times Are Tight Shazz feat Ken Norris- Lenny Fontana's Mixes Victor Davies - Fire Was A Bee - This Is What You Are Rov Ve - Gotta Go By What You Tell Me Reggie Hall - Music Light Of The World - Happy Teddy Pendergrass - Believe In Love just a few of my favourite 12's
December 4, 200519 yr Funnily enough I heard a corker tonight a 12" of a familiar tune that was absolutely superb Kev Etheridge played it at the 3 Greyhounds and sad to say i had never heard the 12" version before Eddie Kendricks - Date with the rain come to think of it his other stormer of the same album is a mighty mighty 12" Eddie Kendricks - Girl you need a change of mind Trouty
December 4, 200519 yr The J's "When Did You Stop" , got this on a 7" , but I have a vague re-collection of seeing the 12" going on Ebay for silly money a year or two back... brilliant Philly sound either way !!!!!!!!!!!
December 22, 200519 yr Current fave 12 has got to be MJ Wade - I'm Gonna Ball Baby on Helva - big down our way Girf Mr D. Gotta agree with you on this. Massive tune that will go even bigger when played in the right places. . How much in today's market???........£250????
December 23, 200519 yr I think the confusion over the Bill Haris track comes from the fact you have a short and long version, people on hearing the longer version most probably take it that it's a 12" version of the song.
December 26, 200519 yr Hi all, How about - Rideout - Someone Special Ray Munnings - It Could Happen to You Charles Earland - Drifting. 3 that really should be on 12s - Main Ingredient - Evening of Love Khemistry - Can You Feel My Love Delegation - One More Step To Take. Cheers Steve
December 26, 200519 yr But 15. Am I Cold, Am I Hot - Bill Harris We conclude with a feel good finale record that epitomises the point where 70s end of crossover northern soul meets modern soul and keeps everyone happy. Like the We The People track, the original 7' exchanges hands for £100 - £150 while re-issues satisfy the ever-increasing demand for this gem (which is even harder to find on a US RCA 12'). Written and produced by the extraordinarily talented late, great, Van McCoy it's a pure soul delight. Much like this entire compilation! Compiled by Richard Searling & Ralph Tee Simon there is an extended version of Bill Harris's AIHAIC..On a Rca sampler from the Early Seventies!! wiich is about 5+mins long
December 26, 200519 yr Funnily enough I heard a corker tonight a 12" of a familiar tune that was absolutely superb Kev Etheridge played it at the 3 Greyhounds and sad to say i had never heard the 12" version before Eddie Kendricks - Date with the rain come to think of it his other stormer of the same album is a mighty mighty 12" Eddie Kendricks - Girl you need a change of mind Trouty [/quote Fantastic record John,the track is taken off of the Lp titled People hold on..Uk and Us releases and cheap as chips too... Great tune waiting to have its day!!
December 26, 200519 yr Best 12INCHER I have heared this year is,,,,,Changing for you...Chilites... awesome early 80s Soul..can be found on 45 too,check out Pat Bradys for a sound file Changing for you!
December 26, 200519 yr Paul Simpson Connection 'Use Me, Lose Me' is getting some action on my decks at present.....ummmm
December 26, 200519 yr Gray I know I have the album, 12 and 7 of both of them Actually the 12 of date with the rain was a pressy from Mrs Trout this year, if you haven't heard it i stropngly suggest that you do very different from the LP and 7 whislt maintaining the essence simply superb IMVFHO John

January 9, 200619 yr HI ALL, YEAH GOT TO BE RONNIE LOVEMAN STOKES FOR ME-I GAVE IT A SPIN AT THE LAST RSG, I'VE ONLY HAD IT FOR ABOUT 20 YEARS(COST ME £5) HAS ANYONE GOT ANY IDEA WHAT IT GOES FOR NOW ?

January 11, 200619 yr On a West Kenyan NIA import. Reminds me of Sheffield Tiffany's in the early 80's. I have one for sale incidentally. Great thread this. Really like the 12" version of "Summertime" by High Frequency.
January 11, 200619 yr On a West Kenyan NIA import. Reminds me of Sheffield Tiffany's in the early 80's. I have one for sale incidentally. Was great upstairs at Tiffanys in the early 80s (room called treetops i think). Seen Summertime 12s on orange NIA & gold NIA labels (mine's orange) but didn't realise it came out of Kenya. The 7" versions good but the 12" knocks spots off it. Just out of curiousity how much do you want for it?
January 11, 200619 yr Mine's gold. I've PM'd ya m8. Was great upstairs at Tiffanys in the early 80s (room called treetops i think).

January 12, 200619 yr I am sure Paul Sutton in Brighton had one up for grabs ? Did you get one or would you like me to find out ? Pahhh wouldn't sell it when i needed it even though he insists on playing the wrong side

January 12, 200619 yr "Really like the 12" version of "Summertime" by High Frequency" I have a REALLY soulful version of this on 12" by Curtis Hairston, the backing is very similar but his deep vocals swing it for me every time.
What's your favorite 12" .. King Tutt " You got me hung up" Alfie Davidson , or Love man Stokes , I would say Bill Harris on RCA but I'm not sure it actually exists
