Listen to this pile of bizzare shite then.

Awful. Is that "The Beautiful Place" on Diamond?

Its "The New world" on Bang 553 by The Burning Emotions and its for sale at £5.00 to ayone who wants to take it off my hands.

It was played a lot at Wigan around late 74 when they had loads of instrumentals. Some good backing tracks, others crap synth soussan shite like Johnny Sayles & Sam & Kitty.

Paul

Two absolute classics. Pass me more drugs please.

It was also played the last year or so of Wigan when Russ seemed to go through phase of playing what seemed obvious records with the vocals stripped off, bloody awful one this. I heard they were Soussain at that time but didn't realise they were years old, Though he had bought one of those new fangled computers very very posh folks had in those days!!

Cheers

I wasn't dissing Johnny Sayles, or Sam & Kitty, just the instrumental versions played by Soussan. One brilliant(imho) instrumental that was around at the same time but was legit although covered up was "I Miss My Baby", by the Lebaron Strings(name that tune laugh.gif )

I've always thought that was the backing track to "What Shall I Do"...... with a few , erm, sound affects added. laugh.gif

And I've heard it somewhere fairly recently biggrin.gif

It is, basically - one of the many tracks using the same backing biggrin.gif

Subway Riders, 'After the Session' with parrotts ? ohmy.gif

Hello

...and it's also 'The New World' (Burning Emotion), a variant of "What Shall I Do" (Frankie & The Classicals), "Moonlight, Music And You" (Laura Greene), "The Beautiful Place" (Mark Johnson) "The World Again" (Honey Adams), 'After The Session' (The Subway Riders) and others. Teddy Vann really got some mileage out of this track!

Wigan circa 74 shite then shite now. Soussain needs a kick in the bollox then and still does!!!

Question??? Anyone know whos behind Northern Soul Productions????

Honey Townsend mate, not Adams ... thats the best of all of those insts

my mate used to collect records with the same backing track, and there are 8 we know of with frankie/classicals or laura green backing track, try getting a "new world" on abc, its a diferent recording and a lot worse

Honey Townsend mate, not Adams ... thats the best of all of those insts

add the essex moonlight music etc

Honey Townsend mate, not Adams ... thats the best of all of those insts

Yes it's the full version with no overdubbed effects, but I thought it was Townsend not Adams. Are you thinking about June Adams ...or am I getting mixed up?

Paul

'The Beautiful Place' has birdy noises as well, doesn't it?

Another record with wierd and wonderful noises is Human jungle by The Fugitives complete with Tarzan sounds and a baby crying at the end. Havent heard this for years. Brilliant!

Actually they sound more like squeeling pigs (or other distressed animals of the porcine family) although I'm not really an expert on famyard noises.

Maybe the pigs were trying to impersonate birds?

You should ask Pete Smith, I think he spends a lot of time on farms, talking to animals. whistling.gif

Paul

that paquidermal intro to 'the zoo' by the commodores was considered a bit wacky back then. wot a floor packer though!!

Believe it or not, I love 'The Human Jungle'. It was a work of art - and one of the earliest examples of primative 'sampling'. The connection is that it was also produced by Teddy Vann who was often very adventurous.

Wrap it up, I'll take it ...but it's for a friend, of course.

Talking of weird instrumentals. I'm still after a soundfile of Shadows and Reflections - The Loneley Crowde. Not coz it's good just weird and I ain't heard it since The Fleet days.

Stop drinking! It was you who wrote Honey Adams!

On the subject of backing tracks, where is "In the Pocket" by Detroit Strings(?) available? Absolute killer instrumental version of "Our Love is in the Pocket".

I'd love to get that and the instrumental of Honey & the bees "Never in a Million Years". Clear versions. I've got already got low-fi web files.

Would love some info.

Jas

ps. I MUST have the "fast" alternate version of Too Many People by Bobby Goldsboro, too.

That Detroit Strings (which actually has no strings on it) isn't a version of OLIITP mate, it's just got passages that sound a lot like it.

I've got a Never In A Million Years inst for sale next week but it's got the mighty Don't Turn Your Back On Me by Jack Montgomery on the other side so there's always a demand.

I can send you an mp3 of the Bobby Goldsboro if you want it.

How about a bit of festive RNB

Actually its more like scary santa.
