Guest Preems Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The o'jays also do a version of this. Robby Lawson - I have searched (can't find this on youtube) Also: Have to say I much prefer Shy Guy on this one, but the 70's boot I have was probably made for Weekend to fill demand from Doo Wopp guys I imagine. It's a great side too for sure. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Preems Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Flipped over my Kenny Hamber - Anything you want, and Ain't Gonna Cry (over one girl) is great southern soul. Hard for anything to edge out Anything as it's a personal fave, but excellent soul for sure, similar to the Jean Stanback A side - I Still Love You. This is great, can't believe I never flipped it over! JoAnn Garrett Stay By My Side... is it the true A Side? https://youtu.be/DQCjj1GNYHE Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 The flip of kenny wells on dynovoice is a great ballad. yes, better than the northern side imo. did anyone mention the seventh avenue aviators yet? killer Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dylan Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 yes, better than the northern side imo. did anyone mention the seventh avenue aviators yet? killer the tempo on KW is actually pretty similar to the side that has had northern soul attention so i'm a bit suprised the flip hasn't as well TBH. First mention for 7th Ave Aviators as well don't temember seeing that yet. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
John Reed Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 (edited) did anyone mention the seventh avenue aviators yet? killer There are two versions of the Demo one with large text and red star on the right hand side and the other with smaller text with a star on the left hand side. Was it an east coast/west coast thing or was it demo'd twice at different times? Edited January 26, 2012 by John Reed Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 destroys Fire, or Coming Back Girl? I guess both are pretty bad. Their common records are so much better I think coming back girl is a terrible record. I actually like she's fire a lot for some reason, it's super fast and catchy in a way that I can bob my head to. The changes in the song are more like Chicago soul changes than coming back girl. Also it sort of reminds me of the VIPs Flashback. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 (edited) The flip to the Tripps - Give it Back.....this is 10 times better The tripps on victoria is actually frankie karl and the dreams first record. So that's frankie karl on lead. But it sounds like girls on the background. Something definitely funny happened with that record because there was also the LA record by "the trips" that were the exits. I wanted to find out what the story was but Frankie died like a year or two ago and I never got a chance to ask him. For example, it could have been one of those things where the Trips "love..." was supposed to be Frankie Karl's group but the Exits ended up singing on it. Who knows.

Len Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 (edited) It's funny, this thread is almost a bit 'dark' as in - 'coming out' and admitting you like ballads / Mid-tempo tunes is almost taboo to some folk on today's scene...Well - "We're here, get used to it" 'Girlfriend' J lol Has this one been posted yet? (I didn't see it) - It's a record that some are very aware of but others I know are not, due to the fact that the main side is such a monster. It's the other side to 'Gwen Owens - Just Say Your Wanted' The unfortunate thing for me is, I really want a copy for this side but it's such an expensive record, so I am waiting for a copy to be for sale where the 'Just Say Your Wanted' side is so kn*ckered it doesn't play, thus the record being virtually worthless!
