Posted September 13, 200420 yr Just wanted to let everyone know, i'm happy today as just got my "ain't no mountain high enough" ... Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrel in the post :-) Just a good happy soulful record.
September 13, 200420 yr Was that just a coincidence Mischief... only ask as it seems to be everyone's favourite record out of the minions that were played at the 100 club anniversary on Saturday )
September 13, 200420 yr Author seems to be getting spins heard it at Luton, Plinston. I played it at Isle of Wight Off album).. Ummm buy it now time.
September 13, 200420 yr My fave Marvin & Tammi at the moment is 'This Poor Heart Of Mine' closely followed by their version of 'Baby I Need Your Loving'.. great uplifting stuff!
September 15, 200420 yr seems to be getting spins heard it at Luton, Plinston. I played it at Isle of Wight Off album).. Ummm buy it now time. Worked well at the Marrs Barr in Worcester a few months back too. A good "last spot of the night record" at weekenders - there's a lot of emotion in it which seems to suit happy pissed up people :-)
September 15, 200420 yr Author Marrs Barr in Worcester I need to come up for that do you know when the next ones are? A couple of people have said how good it was and the last CD was excellent..
September 15, 200420 yr hey thats now played out in Dublin guess we're so far ahead of u's lot "if i could build my whole world around you" another uplifting one from THAT couple + 2 can have a party, one of my 1st ever purchases. Danny D
September 15, 200420 yr wonder if it getting plays in response to Chaka Khans version being played out? CK's version is great too BTW.
September 15, 200420 yr i spun marvin and tammi at the Marrs Barr and its whipped up a sensation as such a simple classic ,,much listened to but rarely spun pete put it on the 1st anniversary cd cuz he forgot how good it was i bought it after i seen the video of marvin / tammi on tv and it moved me greatly,,,, such a soulful record and should be played more the next Marrs is OCT 2nd,,, c u there fluff freeman
September 15, 200420 yr Author Can't do 2nd, as Bisley is on that night and on the Sunday is the Cargo alldayer.. what date after that one?

Danny D Marvin and Tammi could never be played out Danny, in Dublin or anywhere else. It's a truly sublime, uplifting, soulful record and Motown at its finest. Always on my playlist whether at home or out. Is there a finer Motown record? I think it even (if only just) pips Come Get To This. California Soul comes in a close third but Ain't No Mountain High Enough.....spine tingling. Guaranteed if you spin it on Saturday, you'll have a full floor and nobody will be complaining. Just one of those records that goes down well anytime, anywhere.
September 15, 200420 yr ive got a mint dutch 45 and its in a lovely pic sleeve , i will try and get a scan or pic done later. any idea what this is worth as its not listed in guides cheers

Didnt think Tammy sang on California Soul, was credited by Mr Gaye to help with her hospital bills but Valerie Simpson sang most of the tracks from Easy. Not a big fan of California Soul it sounds a little dreary to me. Mr Uptight everythings all right

Mr Uptight everythings all right As chilled as a very chilly thing at a chilly thing convention You got me there, it doesn't feature on my modern playlists but if I could sneak it in I probably would (joking). Yeah I know Tammi's credited on California Soul and the word is that Val sang on it but it's still a really nice record and I'd say dreamy rather than dreary. Looks like - yet again - we'll agree to disagree. This is becoming a habit! Uptight, outa sight...
September 16, 200420 yr Author bought an LP of Brenda and the tribulations.. with a blinding version of California soul on a little bit quicker than the other versions
September 19, 200420 yr I'm a big fan of "ain't no mountain high enough" too mischief ....... we give it a spin down here in Portsmouth quite often ..... @ +4 on the decks though .... always gets them dancing and singing. I trust the IOW was good for you.
September 20, 200420 yr Author I trust the IOW was good for you. Yeh we had a good un, I hear Hipshaker was good. We did have a problem with the sound monitor, it was in the corner of the room so if people dared to laugh it would set the lights off flashing.. Managed to unplug it in the end but the Landlord caught us... umm didn't stop me doing it again the next night.. As a whole we had a blinding weekend, managed to dj for about 5 hours over the weekend only repeating one of my records as it was a request, and not playing anything anyone else done.. Not bad seeing as I only had a small box and a 12" bag, cause I carried my records there on me scooter.. ;-)..
September 20, 200420 yr we had friends who spent some time at your do .... enjoyed it. it was pretty good for us. quite hectic, sold out all 3 nights. Guest DJ's all came up with the goods. the whole rally seemed busier to me .... all events seemed to have sold well and the rideout looked massive.
Just wanted to let everyone know, i'm happy today as just got my "ain't no mountain high enough" ... Marvin Gaye & Tammi Terrel in the post :-)
Just a good happy soulful record.
