Can everyone give me a list of their top 10 rare soul tunes. I want to make a quality playlist from the 6000+ northern tunes i have on my mp3 player.

I want to get into some fresh rarer stuff so no obvious ones please.

Hi Paul,

I have always heard that "This Feeling I have" by Jimmy Gresham is one of them.

My name is Carla I am with the Free Jimmy Gresham Foundation.

He's been in the slammer for 13 years, we are trying to get him out.

I would also like to ask a favor of you, if you have anymore Jimmy Gresham tunes.

We'te trying to collect them up for his site.

Thanks Paul

Carla

Paul, i know and like you, but you state you have over 6000 tracks on mp3, can't you make an informed decision based upon your own taste for any compilation you wish to make ? Why do you seem to need someone else's "Favourites" to justify your selection, this smacks of the age old DJ problem of pleasing the floor (in some cases a floor that has only ever heard 40 tunes...yet this scenario has to my ears over the years dictated the playlist of many a dj).......Like what you like mate, and live and die by that ethos......if someone else doesn't like it then tough..i'm certain they will find another tune that they like..........

You could always have a look through some of the playlists in the Weekend's Playlists thread and see if you've got any of them... won't all be 'rare' but there's a fair mixture of stuff in there :wave:

Alright Brett.

The point is that I dont want to hear the top 100 tunes, but I want to hear what other people are listening too at the moment. It would be like asking you to do me a compilation which I can then listen to in the car

Im not after being brainwashed into a wiganite just curious to hear some recommended tunes off soul fans.

No, you were quite well behaved. Do you remember telling my mate matty he looked like an 11 year old Kosovan :yes: .

You also emphasised that under no circumstances could you three afford to be caught with an 11 year old Kosovan. laugh.gif

It was an amusing journey!

paul, there is a thread running at the moment of current playlists. dont listen to the muppets on there though :wave: (only joking :wave: )

Shane

paul, i think its a terrible idea . its savage and lousy when people say 'have a listen to this'. its easy to overlook stuff at times. Do listen to that genius Brett :wave:

rachel makes no points at all.........

i have nothing to add to this...........Shane

Couldn't agree more Shane........and i'm certain Paul stole something of importance from that car the other night

rachel makes a good point too.

Bit of a lazy one I admit but been writing essays all week and brain isn't working :wave:

Happy to do you a tape/ CD as well Paul if you like :yes: (I promised Brett a tape too at the weekend but he'll never remember laugh.gif:wave: )

Paul,

A good way to listen to what other souklies are listening to is to join the numerous CD swap clubs. Get your Dad to show you round the Hitsvil site and then join the Yahoo Group List. We're preparing a list of CD swappers for Christmas. Pretty sure we'll come up with a lot of good stuff between us.

Regards,

Dave
