August 4, 201212 yr Lat one today , Honest ! - STOVALL SISTERS - YES TO THE LORD - great LP track New to me - nice piece of gospel. It's a bit short our kid?
August 4, 201212 yr Just finishing my cull of Bobby's Poet Albums. Todays offering from The Poet - If you think you're lonely now. Top notch vocals from the man himself with the addition of some great harmonies/backing. Peter
August 4, 201212 yr New to me - nice piece of gospel. It's a bit short our kid? Same as MY BABY LOVES ME - agree tho' bit short Peter
August 4, 201212 yr Sticking with fantastic vocals and with a Bobby connection - what about this? Sam Cooke, It's Been a Long Time Coming. I like it anyway. Peter

August 4, 201212 yr Just got this a nice flip to Jaisuns I fall in love everyday "Try and understand" (Jett Sett)
August 4, 201212 yr And another one I think is great at the moment on Cadet is Jean Dushon "What now my love" not a dear record but worth a place in my box anyhow
August 4, 201212 yr The clip made me dizzy Andy! Not a bad tune though - nice and raw, not over produced. Peter Edited August 4, 201212 yr by Peter99
August 4, 201212 yr Bit dizzy misen Peter but could be single malt great voice Jean IMO Edited August 4, 201212 yr by Andy Reynard
August 4, 201212 yr I'm just posting up random things that I like - not necessarily northern. I hope that's ok. Here's a real melancholy tune - the best version (imo) out of many, many covers. Absolutely love it - it's a folk song really, blue eyed origins as we might say, but I think this ooozes my definition of soulful class. Nina Simone's take of Mr Beau Jangles - and he's still grieving after his dog up and died all those years ago. Beautiful. Peter

Peter the thread is what's in your box play what you like and open other people's ears up to different tastes that's why this thread is evolving all the time n I for one am learning everyday go for it Peter
August 4, 201212 yr Bit dizzy misen Peter but could be single malt great voice Jean IMO Mm, I'm drinking french brandy so that may well be a factor. Yes, some talent Andy. This particular record is all about her voice - not much else to it really. P

August 4, 201212 yr Last one from me tonight - been through a dirty old box of stuff and my hands are grubby! Should sort them old boxes out cos them records are a wasting.

August 5, 201212 yr Author HI ALL....Only a very small number of artist's in the history of the RARE/NORTHERN SOUL LIST OF THOUSOUNDS OF 45'S This man was the #1 of them all. in 1972 when those who saw him, set the reception of how to meet & greet a true superstar, the man was worshiped by all, his name was.... MAJOR LANCE RIP. The record I have picked is in many ways his best? it was his 1st on OKeh records written by another iconic artist CURTIS MAYFIELD, This was not a follow up to another release this is the MAJOR singing at his very best, and every record that followed had this as a bench mark In 1072 when MAJORS UK COLUMBIA RECORDS were being unearthed, "ain't no soul" & "Investigate", My mentor/sage returned from a trip to the USA, This was the 1st time I had heard this sound, it is still one of MICKS ALL TIME FAVOURATES, HOPE YOU LIKE IT? I DEDICATE THIS TO THE BEDFORD BOYS PAST & PRESENT{- OKeh RECORDS 4-7168 - MAJOR LANCE - DELILAH, RATED**********10 STARS, 0 VALUE £50-£100 ISSUE, DEMO (PETE FROM BEDFORD TOP COLLECTOR OF OKeh WOULD NO?)

Cheers Martyn
August 5, 201212 yr Pete Bloody long intro but once it gets going it's right little mover New to me. Cheers Martyn You should hear the twelve Martyn - the intro is over two minutes long and very tedious!
